Im planning on buying a game called call of duty soon, Its editor afaik will be much like radiant as I think its built on the Q3 engine.

GTKRadiant is a very nice editor. Patches are fun to work with and they can create some rather interesting geometry without the need for a modeling program. It's really just a step from WC, you may just have to learn little more external stuff, such as shader scripts to do the lighting for textures and sky lighting. But trust me, it's worth learning.

I use GTKRadiant... I have actually come to prefer it over WC ... :smile:
/me slaps Leperous! The camera system rocks! You just have to modify the controls to suit your needs :smile:
In response to the 'patches being fun' bit... Yeah, patches are nice, but try not to overuse them. I think geometry always looks better when made by hand.
If you need any help PM me, email, post topic, aim, whatever :smile:

I think you are right, The camera is poor. I cant seem to move about with it very well.

hmm, Ive been looking at a tut & it told me to press N select the worldspawn entity & enter
wad
pathtowad/etc/wad.wad
I entered my path to halflife.wad but it doesnt do anything.
when I press T there are no textures but the shader not found or somesuch one.
How do I define the Wad's I wish to use?
CoD should be in stores in america 2mo mornin, We dont bloody get it until the 7th :sad:

Hmm... I've actually never used wads with radiant, I always use jpeg/tga... Also, I was trying to send you my shortcuts file, while greatly improves the camera movement (makes it similar to WC)
