Urban terror 

You need the entity def file for Urban Terror (probably on its website). If that one is missing the entities, you can edit the file with a text editor and add them manually. Just follow the pattern the other entities have. Or copy the missing ents from the default Q3A def file. 

Yes i have that, but i dont know where to put it 

I'm running NetRadiant on my mac, and I have tried putting UrbanTerror.def (The file with these functions) in every single folder in radiant, and in Urban Terror, but still nothing??? 

DEF file are best placed as a standalone game, but not as a mod. And do not forget to add UrbanTerror.game file in the directory "netradiant/games" 

thats the thing though, there is an urban terror game file in my netradiant/games
??? 

isn't*** 

I'm sorry. It seemed to me that Urban Territory it is mod. Have you tried to do as well as for other games?

Urbanterror is standalone 

thanks for the link negke.
Though still nothing... maybe im just not placing folders in right area.
also, anyone know where i can find some pre-colured/textured models? 

Ok, i found out ow to do it. You need to right click on Netradiant App, then click "Show Package Contents, you then go to Contents>MacOS>Install>q3.game then place urbanterror.def in there

anyone know where i can find some pre-colured/textured models? 

Now i have another problem. I have been working on a map for a long time, then one time i saved it as usual, and exit radiant. Then next time i load the map, the map is empty. Like all brushes had disappeared. I was very distressed, so I made another map, making sure I saved all the time, then today I exit, and came back later, and same thing happened.

What's going on??? 

you're on mac then?

have you tested it by opening up finder window to your save folder, and then saving?
does a file appear at all?
if it was w7, i'd say it was a permission problem... but maybe it's saving into /library instead of /user? just guessing here... 

Could also be a case where Radiant has a problem with the entity definitions (improperly configured, syntax error, missing something). Or simply filters activated?

As for the models, just try the ones that come with UT. Not sure if you just need to point the program to the right folder/pk3 or actually have to extract them. Also may need to adjust config xml. 

Yes I am on a mac.
I will describe the situation.
I was making a map. And I had been saving all day. Then i saved, and quit Netradiant and had dinner. Then I came back opened Netradiant, and both my map, and the autosave would not have any brushes or models in the map. This is really weird, as it was only this map. All my other maps from ages ago still worked fine.

Also, i save my maps to my desktop, which has worked fine in the past. This error only really happened after i updated X11 

Does the map file itself have any brush data or is it just empty in a text editor? 

is there any interest in a .ent/.def -> .fgd converter?
was originally going to be just a gui for managing and saving lists of entity definitions but i haven't gotten around to making the gui yet, so it's just a command line thingy. 

That'd save some time.

These files tend to get neglected when creators don't use all formats personally. 

Go forwards and back?

i have some things to clean up but i'll try to get a version that works out during the week.

currently, it can (from what i've seen so far) parse a .ent and create a .fgd.
eventually it should be able to go back and forth, with probably it's own format to store everything in.
this is because there is some loss of data going either way:
.ent files tend to have nice long descriptions of how the entity works, and then descriptions for each keyval/flag, whereas fgd tends to have more abbreviated descriptions, relying more on external docs to flesh out entity functionality.
but fgd has, first, the concept of inheritance for definitions which .ent files lack and the other things like data types for keyvals (strings, integers, choices), which get lost going to .ent.

also, depending on how you document your entities, it can be more of less effective.

so, when creating an fgd from an ent, i've taken to having the thing create some standard baseclass entitites (appearflags, target/targetname, monster, player) and then having the parser try to deduce if the fgd should inherit from a baseclass or not.

eventually, when the gui is working, you'd be able to both parse pre-made def files but also just make your own in the gui itself and fix up badly interpreted defs.

additionally, i'd love to have it be able to scan through an entire qc source project looking for entity defs, matching if they have been added or modified from the current database and then updating it with only new entities... or whatever... dunno how far i'll get.

i'll have more info depending on where it's at next week. 

 

copy the .def file and rename it to .ent?
