I set the values with the console and it worked; maybe the menu command didn't reset everything that was required correctly. 

Pants, he means same color pants so you don't hurt each other. 

FTEqw64 version 5361 isn't compatible with Arcane Dimensions?

I'm asking this because i can't load a savegame when i'm using this mod.

When i press F9 or even loading a savefile from the menu, the engine crashes to the desktop and show me this error message: "Bad Entity Lump: 'Particle' not recognised (last ent was 894)"

Even with "sv_savefmt 0" the engine crashes when i press F9.

I also tried the "savegame_legacy" command, but the console says "Error: hidden name (.sav) Unable to use legacy save format"

help :( 

Is there a way to change console sliding speed to be instant...curious if you can instantly hide the console on map start? 

scr_conspeed 2000(def) increase it until it's near instant. 

Anyone knows if FTE has god-rays auto-generated from the sky?

I remember, a while ago, testing this... i just wrote something in the console and BANG... god-rays from the sky...

but i can't remember the command or even if i was using FTE engine or something else :( 

r_sun_colour ( R G B )

Load up start map and try .4 .4 .4 

Thank you very much =D 

Is there any way to make snow or rain in Hexen2 maps with FTE? 

I could be wrong on this but I'd imagine it's no different than for Quake. Since the particles/configs configuration is engine based and not game based.

So the discussion we had recently about Qmasters 2018_xmas map most likely would apply for Hexen2.

But this time I didn't test it so... ymmv! 

But... to make rain or snow in quake i have to open the map with MarkV, use "tool_texturepointer" to find out the sky's texture name, use "copy ents" to make the ent file, and finally edit the ent file with the sky's name calling the weather effect...

How can i do all of that if MarkV doesn't open hexen2 maps? :/ 

Are you trying this for stock H2 maps? 

Yep.

here is what i already tried:
i opened the bsp with quark to know the sky name from the first map and i opened the bsp with notepad++ and copied all the ents to make a ent file (i saw someone talking about this in QuakeOne forums) but even with an ent file calling the rain it doesn't work

but the good news is: the second map came with an ent file (i think it's from an update) i edited it and it worked! Now i have rain in there \o/

in other news... it seems the command line "r_sun_colour (R G B)" to make godrays doesn't change anything in hexen2 :/ 

FYI: from he console in FTE "sv_saveentfile"

Will be located in "[.../YourGameDir]/fteh2/maps/"

I used TexMex to open the .BSP to find the sky's name. I didn't get the snow/rain to work on a map load though... I have to exec the .cfg from the console to get it to start! 

Thanks!

Your method will save me a lot of time =D 

Now I see whyyy I didn't have particles on map load, because I didn't have it ENABLED in the particles menu :faceplam: 

With your method i was capable of make rain in the first map. Thank you! =D

One thing i noticed... when you are at the courtyard (player-starting-point) and you look down, the rain stops... when you look straigh or higher (or right down to the floor), the rain starts again :P

This bug doesn't happen in Quake

anyway, i'm happy to see the fte_weather working in Hexen2 :) 

Hi, there!

I'm trying to play FTE with effectinfo (quakespasm-spiked custom particles)... all particles are working fine, except for the blood particles when you hit an enemy. I can see blood particles falling from gibs, but not when i hit an enemy...

anyone has any idea how can i fix this? 

r_particledesc "high effectinfo"
or something. or classic instead of high.
(there's some naming differences that prevents the blood particles from loading) 

Thanks!

"r_particledesc classic effectinfo" is perfect =D 

I cannot start a single player game with this client. The paths are all correct in the menu. I have everything where it should be and when i go to play a single player game nothing happens when I try. It doesn't load Quake at all. Whats funny is if i download anything with the quake injector I can play the mods fine. Any help with this weird issue would be appreciated. 

QSS has the same problem. Trying to start a single player game from the main menu does nothing. 

maybe -nohome can help 

I was having issues with singleplayer in the latest build of FTE. Often freezing on level load/change, and sometimes nothing happening on selecting new singleplayer game.

On a suggestion from Spike in the discord I set sv_nqplayerphysics 1 before trying to load a singleplayer map. That fixed the map load freeze. I haven't tried the "new game" selection yet to see whether that is still flaky.

You might or might not already have sv_nqplayerphysics set to 1. I think it is by default, but in the setup you get from the AfterQuake package it appears to be 0. Anyway, if it's 0 for you currently, try setting it to 1. 

Thanks for the responses. Neither command fixed the issue with selecting single player. I added -nohome in a bat file and I also entered the sv_nqplayerphysics 1 in the console. Nothing. What's funny is that in 5399 everything worked fine. The last two updates broke the new game selection for single player. :/ Oh well hopefully the fte qw team is aware of the issue.
