Is there a way/tool to look at attritbutes on entities on maps that are already compiled.

I use a program called stripper2 to mess around with maps on my server, but I want to strip specific entities from the map and to do so I need to know their origin. Also, I would like to see the "name" field so when I readd it I can assign it the correct name.

Thanks for your help.

Use ripent.exe or just open the BSP is something like Wordpad. The entitiy info is plaintext at the end of the file.

Below for the dod_anzio plaza flag it shows:
"point_axis_model" "models/mapmodels/flags.mdl"
"point_allies_model" "models/mapmodels/flags.mdl"

I don't understand how I can modify this to make it a british flag face. Is there another attribute I should change?


"origin" "-698 923 -431"
"point_team_points" "2"
"point_allies_model_bodygroup" "1"
"point_reset_model_bodygroup" "3"
"point_win_string" "MAP_GROUP_CAP"
"point_can_axis_touch" "1"
"point_can_allies_touch" "1"
"targetname" "plaza_flag"
"point_index" "4"
"angles" "0 0 0"
"point_reset_model" "models/mapmodels/flags.mdl"
"point_axis_model" "models/mapmodels/flags.mdl"
"point_allies_model" "models/mapmodels/flags.mdl"
"point_allies_capsound" "ambience/uspointcaptured.wav"
"point_axis_capsound" "ambience/gerpointcaptured.wav"
"point_points_for_cap" "2"
"point_pointvalue" "0"
"point_name" "POINT_ANZIO_PLAZA"
"classname" "dod_control_point"

The answer lies in the flag itself, which is listed as an env_model
the british flag is SUBMODEL 3 in the flags.mdl file.

"point_allies_model_bodygroup" "1" to
"point_allies_model_bodygroup" "2"?? where as 2 would = brits?

not sure...confirm someone. I havent started to make a brit map so I havent bothered checking if that is correct.

you would also want to change this:

"point_allies_capsound" "ambience/uspointcaptured.wav"

to this

"point_allies_capsound" "ambience/britpointcaptured.wav"

Try adding:

"point_allies_model_bodygroup" "2"


Look at the dod fgd for list of entity attributes.


EDIT: lol .... errrrr ... what he said ^^^^

I ended up just changing flags.mdl to w_bflag.mdl. It may not be the correct way of doing it, but it works.

Here is the finished stripper2 config if anyone is interested:

I tried "point_allies_model_bodygroup" "2"

and that works fine... here is an example config for it on avalanche:
