Subject: Re: Adding entities

Hi Akiva - To add them to 6DX, you'll need to create an entity file
(attached here
is a simple one). If you are wanting to add it to quake, then I'm not sure -
but
maybe you'll have to write some Quake C.

The initial "class" is actually the menu item on the entities drop down
menu.
Here is a breakdown on how to create an item (the text in "{ }" is a comment
only)

{Create a "6dx_mdl_shotgun" item on the 6dx_weapons menu named "shotgun}
entity "6dx_mdl_shotgun" "6dx_weapons->shotgun" "Shotgun"
{
 "origin"        notuser                    {needs this so 6dx knows where
to put the creature}
 "angle"         notuser                    { needs this so 6dx knows how to
face it }
 "spawnflags"    monster_spawnflags  { this is for your use, put whatever
you want here }
 "MDL"           str ("g_shot.mdl")    {important - tell it what model to
load for this entity }
}

--- entity file for 6dx models ---
include "quake.ent"

class "6dx_monsters"
class "6dx_weapons"
class "6dx_other"

entity "6dx_mdl_shotgun" "6dx_weapons->shotgun" "Shotgun"
{
 "origin"        notuser
 "angle"         notuser
 "spawnflags"    monster_spawnflags
        "MDL"           str ("g_shot.mdl")
}

entity "6dx_mdl_baraka" "6dx_monsters->baraka" "Baraka"
{
 "origin"        notuser
 "angle"         notuser
 "spawnflags"    monster_spawnflags
        "MDL"           str ("baraka.mdl")
}

entity "6dx_mdl_rhino" "6dx_monsters->rhino" "Rhino"
{
 "origin"        notuser
 "angle"         notuser
 "spawnflags"    monster_spawnflags
        "MDL"           str ("rhino.mdl")
}

entity "6dx_mdl_health" "6dx_other->health" "health"
{
 "origin"        notuser
 "angle"         notuser
 "spawnflags"    monster_spawnflags
        "MDL"           str ("health.mdl")
}
