So I'm a noob to the radiant for WaW, I just watched all of GAM3VIDZ radiant tutorials and it was extremely helpful but I mean compared to some of the people who might read this it's probably not that much, but anyway I made a wooden railing for a map I'm making and I've saved it as a .map file but I'm not sure how to load it in into my map without loading it in as a prefab. I mean the railing would load in fine and everything but the redbox that comes with the prefab is extremely annoying to me, so I just want to know how to load simply load in the objects I used. If I haven't put anything in here that you may need to know just say so.

Can you add a picture, cause I'm not sure of what/which red box you are talking about. I would only stamp as a last resort if you can avoid it personally, but many could disagree with me on that. I would fix the issue in the prefab, if it is an issue, unless for some reason your prefabs have red boxes... If it is a box that is missing a model then delete it. If it is a struct, then you may need it...?

I think he means the red box with an outline that comes with a prefab. You know what I mean? I somehow didnt even think of the missing model red box lol

Doesn't that only come up when you select things? Or am I misunderstanding which one?

for lack of a better term he means the "bounding box" outline that shows around prefabs

Just showing the dimensions of what's in the prefab

I'm gonna need a picture of this, I still don't get it. All I use is prefabs and I never see any boxes around it. Which either means I don't get it, or I turned it off some how maybe.

I wish I was at my home computer so I could take a pic and show you. Put a prefab into a blank .map file and you will see the red outline box I think he is referring to. This red box used to bother me as well because if your prefab isnt at (0,0,0) the red box is far away from the objects in the prefab.

Lol, okay, yeah, I call shenanigans  . Is this in the 2d or 3d?

Both

Although thinking about it you should really only see a outline if there is a model "in" the prefab. I'll check when I get in

Lol blows my mind you have never noticed it.

Spoiler: click to open...

Can't see the word shenanigans  without thinking of the movie Super Troopers

[close]

No picture, no proof.

And I'm gonna pistol whip the next person that says shenanigans. I actually think of the movie Waiting.
