How to create a filter: to hide a specific model type?


Recommended Posts

Hmm...

 

<filter name="Hide LWO">
	<filterCriterion type="entityclass" match=".*" action="show" />
	<filterCriterion type="entityclass" match="*.lwo" action="hide" />
</filter>

?

It's been a long time since I worked on the filter system, but I'm dubious that that would work. The entity class for a model is going to be func_static, surely, rather than including the model file extension?

 

I think you'd need a filter that matches on the model spawnarg, if the filter system supports matching on arbitrary spawnargs.

Tried this already, the above causes a error popup in DR and if you click abort DR crashes to desktop.

The following will work (tested it).

  • go to filters/edit filters
  • press the add button
  • give the filter a suitable name
  • press the add button to add a new filter rule
  • apply the following settings: Type=entitykeyvalue Entity Key=model Match=(*.).lwo Action=hide
  • press save to confirm the changes

Note that you can bind a keyboard shortcut to your custom filter (useful if you use it often).

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
