Can't you just right click without drawing the brush first too?

 

As for setting the model, if you type in key: model value: model name, that usually works to assign the model too.

 

But I heard there's some weird bug where you have to clone the object and delete the old one before it actually displays the model, I dunno.

Slash. To apply a key and the value, just put it in there and press enter. It then puts it there. Don't fuck with create - never works. It's only useful if you select a brush and then bring up this menu and choose what you want it to be (left of create) and then press create. Nearly all the time you won't see the model appear there, so you need to clone it and delete the old one. Select the item then press space. It will have cloned the old one but the new one you can see the model in the editor. This fuckup has been in there since quake 1.

 

Hope this helps.

      Finally got my PC back from the shop after my SSD got corrupted a week ago and damaged my motherboard. Scary stuff, but thank goodness it happened right after two months of FM development instead of wiping all my work before I could release it. New SSD, repaired Motherboard and BIOS, and we're ready to start working on my second FM with some added version control in the cloud just to be safe!

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      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)?
