Hye guys, I'm adding the members for a view entity to my scripter application. Only problem is I'm unsure which members belong to just a regular Level Entity and which ones are included with a View Entity.

I assume that view entities wont have flags like PASSABLE due to not having collision, but what about the other flags.

There is no differentiation in the manual between which flags/members belong to normal entities, and which ones are view entities?

I crashed my game when i tried to add an 'overlay' flag to my view entity life meter - fixed it by using TGA with alpha chanel on MED, it worked for the entity.
The manual is very, VERY vague about this entity, wich is VERY crucial for 3d menus and other important features found in comercial games.
I was able to sincronize vertex animations, panning and position changes in vec_to_vertex coordinates of several view entityes for an animated menu, wich was quite enough to e, but couldn't attach panels or texts to them because of value coordinate differences (my guess is that, when the X value is different from zero - the distance deep from the view camera - those coordinates become different from the panel ones).

hmm ok. It's going to take me a while to test every flag for entities. This is important to my progress.

Isn't there any specific documentation on what applies to only view entities vs level entities?
