I just decided to try and do some mapping for SOF and am going through the tutorials. On tutorial 2 it tells you to right click and select light entity but its not available. I searched the forum and tried everything i could find with no luck. Any help would be apreciated. Thanks

what is available in the list when you click?

hopefully a list of entities. IF not, then your install settings are incorrect.

careful not to just reply to an email, but rather post back here.

I think you want to change all the "SoF PLATINUM" to "SoFPLA~2"

I think the problem is in the path to plantinum and it needs to be in dos format.

hmmm.. I think I may be wrong... it might be SoFPLA~1

that didnt fix it either

copy and paste the list here in the forums for me again... please.

Which list? SO.qe4?

}

get rid of the space....

dos format doesn't understand spaces and formats the folder using 6 letters...

sofpla~1

i tried it both ways

make sure this file: entities.def

is actually in this folder:

c:\Progra~1\Raven\SoFPLA~1\base\

That is the file that contains all of the entities and your program can't seem to find it. That is why you have no entities in your list.
