No models display in editor

(BigBadWolf) #1

Hello. Ive had this problem for quite a while now and is hendering my work progress. In the editor, Gtkradiant 1.3.13 (also 1.3.12), no models will display, only the origin box. I have reinstalled the editor a few times, deleted all its contents and reinstalled. ive also extracted all the model files and directories out of the ET pk3’s and placed them in the main folder under models. the directory paths are all correct in gtk and there is no filter for it, also the view entities as is set to skinned and boxed. if anybody can help me on this. please do so. thanks

It does seem like path issue (but it seems like you’ve checked that). Select the ‘origin’ of the model and pull up the entity window (push ‘n’). You should be able to see the path. It should be something like ‘models/mapobjects/…’ not ‘C:Program Files/Wolfenstein ET/etmain/models/…’

At least this was my problem…

nope, i see the c:/program files/wolfenstein… one

in that case you need to delete everything up to models so it should read something like

models/map_objects/blah_blahblah/blah_thingy. then press enter and the model should show up in the editor

ok, cool, that works now, but how do i get it to do that automatically?

I’ve got a sneaky feeling this problem is related to the fact that your installation path has spaces in it. Try quickly installing a copy in a directory path with no spaces. It might work or then again I could be talking crap.

BTW: do you really need a foot image that large? Can u please reduce it down a bit in size. Thank you.

Spaces should be fine, though it might be a very lengthy path that causes the issues. BTW, during the Radiant installation, you did select the correct game directory for ET, right? Are you getting any warnings in the Radiant console related to models?
