Any reason we can't edit multiple lights at once?


Recommended Posts

Right now if you select more than just one brush face (like selecting a whole brush), then the numbers under Texture Properties in the Surface Inspector window "Shift", "Scale", and "Rotation" are greyed out, but you can actually still manipulate them with the arrows, which I like.

 

Is there any reason why this can't work for lights? For instance, I want to select 5 lights and change their color all at once, or set them all to "Do not cast shadows", but as it is now I have to do each one at a time.

 

If this is possible then I will add it to the bugtracker, if it's not possible or a bad idea for some reason...

No, it's not a bad idea, it just requires some thought and work. Please add it to the tracker, but don't expect it too soon. :)

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?
