Due to some disabilities, I was able to move around in Spark using the W,A,S,D keys including the mouse.

How do you move around now? This is pretty depressing that I can't move around as I used to.


What's with the whole - "Found a Hole" thing? What happened to "What you see, is what you get" standard?

And where is everyone? haha

    You right click, then you press WAS or D.

    ...

    ...

    what?

    I promise, I read your post twice... and it still makes no sense to me. :/

    You move around in the spark editor by holding the right mouse button and using WASD.

    Finding a hole in a map is just a fun little discovery. Means the mapper missed something or made a mistake. Not sure what that has to do with a WYSIWYG interface.

    And we're all right here... though it's true some have been leaving, citing a lack of any sort of updates to the tools. :(

    Well,

    Figured out the movement on my own, but thanks guys!

    I'm still pretty confused as to what happened to the editor. It seems a little... bland now.



    EDIT:

    Anyway: Rolling back to previous version. The one that worked properly.

    Well, except some new bugs and crashes the Spark Editor is still pretty same since release. Only the new Check hole tool is something I haven't still figure out.

    Bland as in no lighting? You can haz lighting in your 3D viewport by selecting it from the dropdown menu in the window (top-left)... Or am I misunderstanding something here...

    Kouji - What I mean is that the spark editor has become this "3D Modeller" of some sorts, and most of the usual keyboard shortcuts have been changed... again.

    You can change the keyboard shortcuts yourself. Tools > Settings > Keybindings.
