Using arrows to move in radiant 1.5.0 *SOLVED*

(-SSF-Sage) #1

I love when you are able to move with the arrows in the 3d. However this sometimes mystically disappears and gets me very frustrated. I haven’t found the setting for toggling this. How to put that again on (other than restart radiant)? Or is this some wierd bug?

Explain what you were doing/do when the arrows begin to fail to operate.

Also check Caps lock, I have seen some weird results when it was on.

Here is the thing! I don’t know why it disappears! If I knew I wouldn’t have posted. I’m just wondering what makes you NOT to be able to move with arrows? I thought if I pressed some button that puts it of or something similar.

i have noticed that when you have caps lock on sometimes my camera acts differently. perhaps check if you are accidentally hitting caps lock on

does it happen when you are working with the texture browser? or maybe you clicked in the console? either way you have to use the tab key and tab out of it. it’s a little funky. if you are in texture browser, tab once and 3d window has arrow keys. tab again console now has arrow keys. tab again and i think the 3d window and toolbar has arrows. next 2 tabs stay in 3d window. tab one more time and you are at the beginning of the cycle in the browser window. yay for tab order.

THX alot!! This was it. CAPS LOCK causes this “problem”, thank you for solving this! :smiley: Now I will not have to get angry about this thing. :slight_smile: Thx also for kamikazee, I did somehow miss your post, since we did post quite the same time! 8)

must be a linux vs. windows thing. or you guys are using old versions of 1.5 as caps lock has no effect on 3d window navigation for me.

Seems another fault of Radiant 1.5…
In 1.4 it never gets stuck… :stuck_out_tongue:

For 1.4 version go here -> http://bull3tproof.net/aburn/GtkRadiantSetup14.exe

1.4 never had the arrow movement thing, I’m assuming your talking about the translate tool on W key?

No I mean the arrows . And this case is solved, since the caps lock did the trick. Btw I have 1.4.0 and I hate it. 1.5.0 is much more simple etc. imo. I use sometimes 1.4.0 to do some specific things since I havent found/search for those functions at the 1.5.0. Like plot splines (the rain thing) and thickening the path. I use 1.5.0 99,99999 % of the time and I love it!

i also use it, but if u LOVE it than u havent experienced yet the zomg huge number of program crashes… so always save :smiley:

(aburn) #13

1.5 crashed on everything I did… so I came back to 1.4 cause it is stable… has what it has to have to make maps… and VERTEX Editing… With out that I would not map at all :stuck_out_tongue:

Cause the map seems like a stupid box if you make every wall so straight as Radiant 1.5 wants…
Maybe it hates me as well… :stuck_out_tongue:

(Volum) #14

maybe u got a shit pc :lol:

(.Chris.) #15

Even on my old crappy PC, 1.5 worked a charm even the first beta of it worked well with very few crashes, I guess some people are just born to hate anyway can every other week this 1.4 vs 1.5 discussion somehow makes it way into the forums, can we please stop now?

(aburn) #16

Buahahaha!!!

Ok… I don’t disscriminate Radiant 1.5… “Debustigus Non Disputandum”

Just don’t work for me… and it is not every week… IMO
maybe once, twice a month…
