Do you have Spearhead installed and if so have you renamed the "mainta" folder to something like"tamainta" while you map and complie?

Click view -> models as bounding boxes only.

Should be easy to select after that.

i tried bounding boxes only before you even said that and it made them into boxes (as i suspected) and when i clicked on them THE BRUSH BEHIND THEM TURNED RED!!! (meaning i selected the brush) and i had spearhead installed when it worked fine... i still do.. but when i map i take the pk3's out and put them some where else... im going to try and rename the mainta folder now though see if that works :? ok bye!

Renaming the folder does the same as moving around the pk3 files. If you want send me the file and I can see if I have the same prob...

The only problem I've noticed with renaming the mainta folder is that when mapping you loose all of the new textures and models that come with spearhead in MOH Radiant. If I don't rename it the map will not complie properly.

Is there a way we can still have the textures available but not have the problems with compiling? :lol:

No...if your looking at useing those textures and models you have to let the mohr load those .pk3 files. You will have to wait till the updated mohr for a less buggy prog.

What you said about the renaming mainta folder doesnt let me select entities.

Thats wrong. Also i can use like he said but it wont let select any more than 1 at a time. When i first installed Rad, it worked fine. But there wont be a update to this program. It would have been here by now. This is a beta that was left as a beta. This is it EA games dropped support a long time ago. Thats why they left us with a crappy map program. It likes to change settings and delete files as it sees fit. My best Advice is to make a new backup every timne u open it up. It deleted my map file. f#$*@% POS

Do you always need to rename ''mainta'' to ''tamainta'' when making a map ??? :?
