i did a double take too. ^_^ 

Almost wish he hadn't let that slip!How crazy would it be he just just posted the map up in the newsthread completely unannounced?

I probably would've ruined my pants.

But yeah... awesome. 

It is a homage to Rubicon 2. 

Those of us in #tf knew about this already. Cuz we're in the loop. 

#tf is for noobs :p 

Out of a sudden, new QSP just fell from the sky.

Haha! Looks like a fun map Vondur, I'll give it a try later..... 

Six maps like this one and your episode won't be a problem. 

But Vondur is in his own class when it comes to mapping :( 

 

Anyone have the metal-leaks wad that speedy released a long time ago? The version on quaddicted seems to be corrupted. 

http://q3lover.ovh.org/viewpage.php?page_id=25 

is there some kind of program that would allow me to search all entities of a common classname and either insert or replace keys on those entities?

like, <ahem> say for example, you had a map that had tons of torches and then this cool coloured version of aguirre's light compiler comes out and you wants to copy a specific '_color' key to maybe a few hundred torches, but not any other lights (nor light globes or flames, just torches). 

It's called Gtkradiant. Open the entity list and select all torches, then add the _color field in the entity window. 

Quark does it too! 

i tried in quark, but i couldn't figure out how to do it easily without going down the entity list and manually selecting them all one by one.

but gtkr... i'll have to try that because i had no idea you could select multiple entities that way (sikkpin's qe3 which is based on radiant which is what gtkr is based off of doesn't have that ability, you can only select individual entities that way). 

Hammer can do it too! 

looks like qe3 is firmly in the fail category in this instance. :P 

Find/replace "classname" "light_torch_small_walltorch" with "classname" "light_torch_small_walltorch"<linebreak symbol>"_color" "1 2 3"

Not sure about the linebreak thing though :P 

 

i use textpad which unfortunately, can't replace with linebreaks. :S 

if i could code, i'd make a little standalone app for stuff like this. it would read ents from a bsp or map and create a little database where you could sort by each attr & search for certain values. or mass-edit stuff like above 

Ah, are those on subsequent lines? And all of the same class?

JEdit is my favourite editor and it can easily do this. It is free, open-source and cross-platform. http://www.jedit.org/

Select the classname. Ctrl-F for the Search and Replace dialog. Copy the line to the "Replace with" form. Use Ctrl-Enter to add a linebreak. Add your new field. "Replace all".

Make sure it will search in "Current Buffer". You might want to turn regular expressions off, should not be an issue here though. 

Even with \n 

Edit - Select - By Value - Entity Type - OK
