GtkRadiant 1.5

How to install GtkRadiant 1.5 for use with Tremulous on a Power PC Mac.

Prerequisite: You must have X11 installed or all of this is pointless.

Obtaining the bundle.

Download the GtkRadiant 1.4/1.5 bundle for PPC here.

Installing the package

Once you have MacRadiant 1.5 in your applications folder, right click it (or option click it when using a one-button mouse) and select show package contents and navigate up to /contents/resources/sw/radiant15. This directory is where you will put the trem.game folder and where the games folder resides. Keep this folder open.

Setting up the editor

The ".game" file

Open up textedit (in your applications folder), make sure you are in plain text mode. Copy and paste this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<game
type="q3"
index="1"
name="Tremulous"
enginepath_win32=""
enginepath_linux=""
enginepath_macos="/Applications/Tremulous"
engine_win32="tremulous.exe"
engine_linux="tremulous"
engine_macos="Tremulous.app"
prefix=".trem"
basegame="base"
basegamename="Tremulous"
unknowngamename="Tremulous modification"
shaderpath="scripts"
archivetypes="pk3"
texturetypes="tga jpg"
modeltypes="md3 ase lwo obj 3ds picoterrain"
maptypes="mapq3"
shaders="quake3"
entityclass="quake3"
entityclasstype="def"
entities="quake3"
brushtypes="quake3"
patchtypes="quake3"
/>

Note: enginepath_macos="/Applications/Tremulous" is to the folder where your copy of tremulous.app resides. Do not include a trailing slash e.g. /Applications/Tremulous/. If you do, macradiant will tell you you have no valid .game file or Tremulous will not be in the drop down list.

Save the file to your desktop as trem.game with the encoding set to western. Then copy/move trem.game to macradiant15.app/contents/resources/sw/radiant15/games.

The ".game" directory

Download and extract this .zip.

Copy/move the trem.game folder to macradiant15.app/contents/resources/sw/radiant15/

Common Files

Download and extract the common files.

Copy/move common-spog.pk3 and the scripts folder to your /Applications/Tremulous/base folder.

Location Check and starting of the editor

Okay, you are ready to open up macradiant15.app, but before you do so lets check that you put everything in the right spot.

trem.game file = /Applications/macradiant.app/contents/resources/sw/radiant15/games
trem.game folder = /Applications/macradiant.app/contents/resources/sw/radiant15/
common files = /Applications/Tremulous/base

If these are correct you will now be able to make maps with radiant.
