[aha, I am a member? now?]

ok it its not tdm related its idtech4 related
simple script
help?
if tdm has a gui editor i'll install it for that
read prev
its a great engine

I' just making environments and model assets right now,
just want the engineto fire up and load a single map without an actual gui
but just trying to make a square that fires the map when you click
 

[ACK - simple guiscript question]

Hello

I have Dhewm working very well with a very small starter pack that I can build on.

I have quake 4 installed because I can't get a gui editor to work in the 10 other executeables I have.

in main menu gui

I want to start a map called 1

if I fire up the dhewm exec and console map 1

fine

runs

want to fire map 1 from a button

that's it.

can't get syntax correct perhaps

starts up to load map flickers

the gui "cmd" syntax is possibly wrong but I can't find any examples of it other than this style
 

I know it's something simple

like I have to program a wait or the syntax is off

this one thing will enable me to package the set properly for ppl

Idon't understand fully the script code

I get that its calling a command to the engine from the script

I'm a designer I have lightwave environments

blender md5's

I need to trigger the start map from the beginning sequence or a gui

thank you if you have a moment to help

I'm using not the latest as it screws up for me but one back, the 32 bit one even though I am on x64.

Its great and looks good, I have darkradiant, I have zbrush, I can build materials

but I can't trigger a starting map from the script.
