I tried that already, it doesn't seem to work. It is only for Fly mode and even there it doesn't work.

If I change the wasd keys to the arrows like your screenshot, all it does is change select/unselect the 3d viewport. 

Arrow keys must be "hard coded" for nudging brushes and such. 

Okay I really hope there is a way to remap those keys. I friggin hate the wasd setup, we use azerty here so it is so utterly terrible to have to use wasd.

I really do hope this will be implemented because I like this editor a lot, but right now I can't even do simple navigational things. 

Map it to ZQSD? seems about the only compromise :( 

Okay, if I change my keyboard setup to US then it is doable. Still, I hope that Kristian finds a way to make them remapable, even if I can't change them to the arrow keys I would still like to change them.

For now I can work again on my mapping :) 

If course this does mess up any keyboard shortcuts that use the wasd keys like ctrl+z for undo.

Sorry for the multiple posts btw, seems more like a chat conversation with a helpdesk :D 

Have you joined Github? You are more than likely to get a quick response or at least an explanation if you post an issue or request there. Link is above. 

I prefer asdf, homerow keys. Much more natural. 

I'll sign up to github :) 

This is the first time I'm trying to compile my map but I keep getting an error when creating the bsp.

This is my compiler setup and error:
https://ibb.co/gaWY1G

I copied the 64bit compiler and dll files from my gtkradiant 1.6 installation. I didn't want to try the newer separate compilers and start simple with the existing one.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks on advance :) 

Looks like your paths are all messed up but hard to see everything in your screenshot. Looks like you have spaces, periods and weird characters and it could be that.

Some advice:

Under Quake make a new directory called "compile".
Download ericw's compile tools here: http://ericwa.github.io/ericw-tools/

Download Necros' compiling GUI here: https://shoresofnis.wordpress.com/utilities/ne_q1spcompilinggui/

Install ericw's entire folder into your new compile directory.
I think you can put Necros' GUI anywhere you want. Instructions are on the page linked above.

Now you have two options to compile. I suggest Necros' GUI for beginners. Try it. If you'd rather use TB then set up the paths in this new. compile directory.

There's a bunch of things that could have gone wrong with your current setup. Best to start from scratch. ericw's compilers work perfectly with default settings, they are backwards compatible and more up to date than what you have. 

Okay thanks, I'll give it a go 

Just a quick question, is this compiler also for Quake 2 ?? 

but can do Hexen2

read the qbsp documentation

I know Doom 3 isn't as popular as Half-life or Quake but it's still really fun to map for and I like Trenchbroom much more than the alternatives. Is there any glimmer of hope that we will ever get support for Doom 3? 

TB saves to .map. Make as much as you'd like in TB. Save it. Open in your Doom3 radiant editor. Texture and fill with items/enemies. Compile. 

Sounds like a rather nasty workflow honesly :/

It would be nice if the author of trenchbroom would clear it up if Doom 3 support is something we will ever get and if not then the reason he doesn't care to include it. 

I wouldn't expect him to, at least for a good long while. He has a long list of features he's talked about implementing for Quake that I'm sure he is more interested in working on for now. 

Any examples of the new exiting features that are coming for Quake? 

You can check out the milestones at Github here:

https://github.com/kduske/TrenchBroom/milestones

Right now they are working on 2.0.0 and it looks like 2.1.0 is chugging along. 

I'm sorry, but it's not actively being worked on ATM. I'm very busy with other things and have too little time to work on TB as it is. Also other games have precedence, e.g. before I would start working on D3 support, I'd want to work on Q3 and HL2. 

Hi!

When I change a point entity's classname to trigger_secret and then deselect the entity, the entity stops displaying in the editor. The entity still exists in the map, because it compiles and gets triggered during gameplay.

Is anyone else able to reproduce the behavior? 

Check your View menu checkboxes. This sort of thing has happened to me before and this was the culprit.

Alternatively, I seem to recall something familiar about this so it could be a known issue. Do the above check to rule that out.
