I would also suggest registering at www.3dbuzz.com and downloading their vtm's, they arent in depth but they are very good for getting used to the editors ui

You're probably doing the rightclick/select method for choosing your models, I'm assuming.

 

If you want a more indepth approach, one that lets you look through all the models and has a little preview window for yout to check out, click on the entity tab down on the display window, hit models, and wait for em all to load. You'll see the whole list of stuff you can choose from organized by theme and models there.

Is this sticky for a reason?

[sparhawk]

Yes. Because I think that other people, who also want to get started on D3 editing, might have the same question. Therefore it is a good idea to point them in the right direction.

[Fingernail]

so it is...but should we delete all the unnecessary replies and leave it as a links only thread?

Hey, I found a particularly good tutorial on triggers that I wanted to share. I found it a while back, but due to registration troubles I havent gotten to post it yet.

 

Here she is:

http://files.filefront.com/Doom3_Trigger_T...;/fileinfo.html

 

This is a mammoth tutorial. It comes with a fully done map that you begin that has all the triggers in it, and it has an ingame gui explaining each trigger and how it works. You run through the whole thing and try stuff out(it takes a good while). I havent really had time to work too much with the triggers themselves, but this tutorial is an excellent tool if you plan on making triggers, alot of time must have gone into making it.

[Domarius]

Yes I've done that one The map IS the actual tutorial... like a virtual world tutorial. It's the best one I know.

[Unstoppable]

Hm this sounds very interesting.

Good tutorial for dealing with patches in a curved hallway setting, but I also used it to create a curved roof brace.
