.arch guide

[Veroule]

The main thing I really want to put together is a guide that lists various known property names and what they do. I mean some are obvious, but I am sure there are others that do not have any example of usage within all the files provded with the map editor. Even looking through the various files that come with the map editor there are many properties that you just wonder, "What the heck does that mean?"

Just a quick little start on it. If you are working from a Windows box then you can build a single file containing all the arch files that come with the map editor by opening up a DOS prompt, and going to the top "arch" directory of your installation. Then enter the following command [b:ea23f]for /r %i in (*.arch) do type %i >>arch.txt[/b:ea23f] when it finishes you should have around a 600k file that will at least save you having to click 10,000 times in the editor to try reading through the different properties.

Some of the stuff you will find in there like beans were documented sort of when the website was up. Once it is back up you should be able to cross reference a few things and make a little more sense out of it.
