How about the button with model written on it and a big red x going through it ? It is beside the one with curve written on it and also a big red x going though it .

If my memory serves correctly, it is the eye at the far right of the toolbar. It gas three settings, 1, 2 and numberless. the one with no number is the one you want :wink:

ok, i need to know what file is the config file, i've screwed up a lot of other crap now....liek the other cameraq settins... i've tried the radient settings file but that's only keys, where does it save preferences?

edit: also, i know THIS is noob, but do i need entdefs in mainta and main?
because it's not working at all. :x i remember at first i had this prob because entdefs were in too many folders, i've tried to get rid of them all and replace only a few. but it's not working.

most probably the entdefs file doesnt work is because the paths arent set correctly !!
there is a file called default.q4e which has all the project setings.
if u made a new project than look for files with .q4e extention .(right?)

but ,the best approach to fix radient when it screws like that is to just reinstall it.
i think there was a file stored somewhere in windows where the settings are put. i was unable to find it,but when i replaced windows the settings were made to default.thats how i know i exists

I think settings are put in the registry.

ya i think i'll just reinstall. it's more trouble than it's worth.

ok this is REALLY weird. i did a COMPLETE reinstall of the RAdient and MBuilder etc. and it still does it! :? i have the entdefs working after the reinstall but it's still messed, the only way i can select entities is with the entity editor. :x

what file do i need to replace? i have a working copy of the SDK at my other comp but i'd rather not wait an hour for it to email or copy to CD. :wink:
