Ok, quick question:

Can I use MED (instead of WED) to create levels, or maps? Can I make them, and import them as 'models' in WED at least? I'm asking because, in general, I find MED to be a better editor, and it is a lot more versitile IMO.

Thanks.

And here I thought these forums were active. I jut need a simple yes or no answer. Can't anyone be bothered to help a newcomer out?

yes you can use med.

Cool, thanks ;]

Now, to get to work on some stuff. Sorry for my m00bish persistency, but I just wanted to make sure, and such questions aren't answered in the documentation.

EDIT: Another quick question; will collisions, and physics need to be scripted from scratch, or will the automatically be there like stuff made in WED?

Need to be scripted from scratch.

it is not really "scratch". and coding it dont take long/not hard.

right.

Some comment to your first question, its a bad idea to make the construction of your game dependent on which editor you like better.

Models and levels are different. For instance, when you make your levels with MED, you can not use lightmaps and you can not easily attach actions to models and can not use the templates, so you must do everything in script or C++. Its much harder to do a level only with MED and the result will be not as good.

ummmmm, you're right too.

Hmm.

WED is kinda of basic, it seems. Is there a way to draw a plain, and edit it without it being a terrain map? Like, can I have a plane with X verticies/ points/ faces, and manipulate it to "sculpt" a map?

Building with hollowed cubes seems a bit..I dunno.. archaic o-o.
