New Fgd File!

Fox0r · November 2002

<div class="IPBDescription">Get it tonight!</div> Guys, I updated the fgd file to include zhlt_lightflags and also to include Laurie's switchable texture lights. Furthermore, I removed the feature that makes cyclers (and a few others) display their sprite in the 3D view because VHE would crash if a mdl file was specified.

I will submit it to c4 at ns.valve-erc.com when I get home from work.

Great. I'll see if I can add anything to QuArK's .qrk file. Only NS specific entities are stored therein, and there already is zhtl_lightflags support so there probably isn't much to change.

Furthermore, I removed the feature that makes cyclers (and a few others) display their sprite in the 3D view because VHE would crash if a mdl file was specified.
Does this also include env_sprite? It would seem a bit weird if it didn't display a sprite, but it can also be used for models. Few people know that however, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

Umm, what?

Could you rephrase that?

If you're saying what I think you're saying, then:
I CAN make the 3D view show the actual sprite for env_sprites again, if you think it's necessary.

The rest of what you said still confuses me.

yeah the env_sprites really shouldnt be used for models so I think they should still be able to display the sprite you choose.

Does the env_sprite display it's sprite in the 3D view when using the new .fgd file?

If it doesn't it would be a bit weird and take most of the usefulness out of the sprite-displaying-feature.

If it does it may cause crashes as with the cyclers, since env_sprite can be used to display models in-game. Few people use this however.

I assume it does display its sprite, which is fine for most people.
