Hi

I’ve been through ET in search for entities that works but are not in Radiant.

Some of these entities are from RTCW or even Quake3 and some seem just not included in Radiant. I’ve been told that the the ones that were included in Radiant were done so because they were used in the orignal six maps.

Here is the beta1 of a walkaround pk3 museum of the new entites, as well as documention, .def additions and updates etc. The map is a “technical” museum, ie they just show the entites as they are. Any creative use of them is the next step.

Excellent work. Very nice

Detoeni · 2004-01-14 03:09:06 UTC

Nice job! Your timing could not have been better. “target_lock” just what I need for me map.

Loffy · 2004-01-14 03:40:27 UTC

That was really cool!

MadMaximus · 2004-01-14 03:57:56 UTC

excellent stuff.

MrLego · 2004-01-14 04:05:45 UTC

Very Nice! :drink:

Drakir · 2004-01-14 04:11:34 UTC

Nice work there!
I see that u have included the missing models, so the obvious question. Are we really allowed to use these models in ET?

radiant · 2004-01-14 07:17:30 UTC

locking door… that’s it!

kevinski · 2004-01-14 14:53:21 UTC

Just one question: I realize that this was used in the wine cellar (possibly in the first level) in RtCW. Is this supposed to be wine leaking out, or is it supposed to be gunpowder (or something of that nature)?

flashkillaman · 2004-01-14 16:21:21 UTC

great work!

kommando · 2004-01-14 17:32:39 UTC

Thank you, excellant work!!!

:drink:

CAIN_VC · 2004-01-14 17:35:09 UTC

Nice job - thank you.

Erik-Ftn · 2004-01-14 18:08:37 UTC

Thanks for support ppl.

IMO, using these small models, a few barrels, two different healthpacks, two chairs, an alarmbox and a sausage will not be a problem worth putting time into for anyone.

Also, some models are custom made by me, some are from Radiant and some are from ET and I’ve changed them a bit.

Its black, and in the entity description it says “oil”. There will be no pool on the ground, though.

// ---------------------displaying text --------------

/*QUAKED target_print (1 0 0) (-8 -8 -8) (8 8 8) AXIS_ONLY ALLIED_ONLY PRIVATE
This will display text on the lower part of players screens.

Your timing is superb, and this entity should answer a question someone else raised in another thread. I know IÂ´ll be using this one lots!

Top marks for having the patience to do all this, very much appreciated!

gerby · 2004-01-14 20:20:07 UTC

Heh cool, my entity definition has smileys in it - must be an extra happy one!

Drakir · 2004-01-14 20:30:11 UTC

the target_print is the one used in Northpole for the TIP! stands…

digibob · 2004-01-14 20:57:43 UTC

I would advise heavily against using any of the prop_ entities, as they are not very network friendly for the most part.

Erik-Ftn · 2004-01-14 22:28:50 UTC

Hi, does “most part” mean “most of the time” or “most of the enteties”? If the latter, please elaborate.

The props categories are:

boxes
crates
chairs
flamebarrels

dust
gunsparks

Entities confirmed to be causing major problems will be separated or exluded in the final release. I hope results from large scale testing will soon be available.

Erik-Ftn · 2004-01-14 23:06:00 UTC

There is probably something wrong with my former post, technically. It caused the thread to disappear when I deleted this post. well, whatever…

digibob · 2004-01-14 23:54:08 UTC

Most of the entities, most of the time.

The ones you can push about are the worst.
