Testing New Models
Skullfury:
Is there to test models in-game without packaging them as an add-on? Such as the exec(); function, except it is used to execute dts files? I searched the forums multiple times, however I did not find anything.
NEkram:
no you may not
exec(); only execs .gui, .cs and .mis
Skullfury:
I know that you can't use exec(); to execute the dts files. But is there a quick way to test models without writing out all of the code?
goz3rr:
Place them in the blockland/base/data/shapes folder and spawn them with the mission editor.
Demian:
I just copypasted the default sword, did some editing to script so it doesn't overwrite the sword and made it read for "a.dts" in the same folder. Start a game, spawn "A Model", test and stuff, close game, fix model, export, copy to add-on folder and rename to "a.dts", repeat. Works fine for me.
