Hi Ryan,
By detail props I mean the type of models that are generated automatically on a
"WorldVertexTransition" transition texture based on alpha ranges
I always thought it was done at compile time because I see the following line
when compiling
Placing detail props : 0...1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...10
or is this something else?
I would look in the bsp file if there was a simple way to read it as text? -is
there? - it just looks like garlbe mess when i open one in notpad..maybe i
should try a hex editor? I havent looked into the code for the bsp files yet
maybe I will now have a look..any help on this would be cool cause then we
might be able to make a small tool that others can use to place any type of
entity.
thanks again
adam

model positions from a .bsp file?
Are you sure they are compiled? I thought those were generated as func_detail
on runtime. If surface detail models are done on compile, they are probably
merged with Model 0 (worldspawn). If you find those are generated in vbsp, then
just alter vbsp to dump a list of coordinates for you. We have the vbsp code,
not the orange box ones yet though I don't think.

Hi Again all,
Is there any way anyone
knows of a way to extract detail model positions from a .bsp file? I would
like to be able to rip the x,y,z
information of the detail models so that I can use the coordinates to place
static props. By detail models I mean the unlit models that are emitted from a
.vbsp file at compile time.
Any ideas help?
Adam
