why does Alt-G crash editor? i've never been able to figure it out.
it was made back in GEMdev(1999) to test the mission (like the green start button) now its useless and bind is still there
how to delete entities?
button delete is the easiest to press. (its near the end button)
i am trying to make an omaha beach map with the gem editor
can anyone help?
i am stuck :/
On what?
Nothing but I love that flag. If you manage to make a MoW Nam custom map for the battle of Xuan Loc or any custom S&D missions I'd love to try.
I know there is a bind to bring up a list of animations for entities, but im not sure what it is. Does anybody know?
Call Functions :)
Well now there are lines of text above every open door like 'keep_places_without_door' its really weird and I don't know what key I pressed
Alt+T,also these are called "tags"
hey man i accidentally pressed the map scroll lock would you happan to know the key to turn this off?
How do you switch sides?
press numbers on the numpad, it'll turn the color box (top left) on the color of the team you are spawning/controlling.
What if you don't have any numpad?
Hmm. I think you're pretty much screwed then. xD
Well... basically, :D
Numpad 0-9
press the numbers on the numpad (be sure they're unlocked)
Is there any possible way I can use WASD in the editor, that anyone knows of?
Hi there i have a problem with my editor my c and x dont work
how do you turn om men of war editer
How can I change the hot keys?
Is there any other way to delete entities? My delete key is not working. Or am i just ******?
MoW AS
when I use the num pad numbers (0123456789) to choose a squad, the camera snaps to the center of the map in a whit dotted square and then I cant move the camera anymore. how do I fix this? ctrl Q does not help
when i use the gem editor the f1 f2 f3 keys dont work it just wont switch.
I am having the same problem, I haven't been able to find a fix for it unfortunately. But if I find one, I will definently tell you. I feel like it has something to do with windows 10, but not exactly sure.
I finally solved it! You just need to press the fn key and the f key really fast! Note that I said really fast, I mean just hit them.
You are on F lock
Anyone know why the f keys do nothing for me?
my scroll wheel has problem.I try to zoom in and out using the button,but it won't work,anyone can solve this?
i have an issue on editor mode with texture i try to add a 3rd but it looks all screewed up like it doesnt blend on top of the other 2 textures? i have the grid textures then i added new one by copy of grid then i tried to add yet another one and the 3rd is not blending in to the other textures it shows squeres and corners instead of blending im sure this is a program issue so i also would like to know if this will be fixed in the near future ? or how can i fix this? is this the right place to add this issue in ?
