Door error - Failed to create entity.

Post by Sonny »

Hello Everyone,
I'm following the tut on doors, and when I get to the part about selecting the door and the origin, and creating the function->rotatingdoor

I get the following Error:

Failed to create entitiy


Anyone seen this before and know of a fix?

Thanks so much,
Sonny

You can't create it if one of the brushes is already an entity. But you can add to a function entity. Click on the func entity brush, then on the worldspawn brush and click on selection/Add to Entity.

Or, you can ungroup the brush that is an entity (also under selection) so that both brushes are worldspawn, and then start over. But, remember to select both brushes before you make them into one func_rotatingdoor.
