mR Building - Basic Tutorial - JackFlash - 09-19-2010
Building on mR servers
The main command for building is !spawn
This is the command to create props. A prop is any piece or item you create.
Most of the commands mentioned here are used in the console.
To get to the console, press the ` or ~ key. (upper right corner of keyboard right under esc key)
Note: To enable console if it does not appear, Press Esc key, then click options ..
then go to the keyboard tab and click advanced. Finally, check off: [ X ] Enable developer console (~)
SPAWNING YOUR FIRST PROP:
1. Look at the ground in front of you
2. Press the ` key to get to console
3. Type !spawn support01 , press enter
4. Press esc key to return to the map
This command creates a concrete vertical support column. To make another, follow the same steps. Look at the spot you want it to appear, press ` key then type !spawn support01
Props can be spawned from the ground or on the side of other props. Or even upside down (from the bottom of another prop).
BIND A COMMAND TO A KEY:
Creating props can be done quicker if you bind the command to a key on your keyboard.
Example: Press ` to get to console and type bind m “!spawn suport01â€Â
This will create a support01 everytime you press the m key. Any key on the keyboard can have a bind to it. Just substitute any keyboard key for the m in the bind command.
MANIPULATING YOUR PROPS:
!raise (number) - will raise your prop (positive number) or lower your prop (negative number)
Example: !raise 10 will raise your prop 10, !raise –10 will lower your prop 10.
You can use a larger number to move a lot, or a smaller number to move only a little.
!r (number) - will rotate the prop on the axis it spawned from.
Example: !r 45 will rotate the prop 45 degrees and !r -45 will rotate 45 degrees in the opposite direction.
You can use any number from 1 to 359 (degrees of rotation).
+grabent - This command is for adjusting the location of your props. It is most useful when binded to a key.
Example: bind F12 “+grabent†will allow you to move the prop you’re looking at while you are pressing F12.
Hint: If you crouch while moving (ctrl key) you can move slower for more precise placement.
!del will delete the prop you are looking at.
!del_all will delete all your props.
!alpha (number) will adjust the transparency (see-through) of a prop.
Examples: !alpha 0 makes the prop invisible
!alpha 120 makes the prop transparent (see-through)
!alpha 255 makes the prop completely solid (no see-through)
Any number from 0 to 255 can be used.
KEY BIND EXAMPLES:
bind m “!spawn suport01†- spawn support01 every time you press m
bind k “!r 45†- rotate a prop 45 degrees when you press k
bind 9 â€Â+grabent†- allow you to move a prop while pressing 9
bind j “!alpha 120†- make a prop transparent (see-through)
bind F2 “!del†- delete your prop when you press F2
These are just examples of how to bind commands to keys to make building quicker. Any keys can be used.
SAVING AND RECALLING YOUR BUILDS:
savespawn save (name) - saves everything you have built at that point.
savespawn load (name) - loads a previously saved build
Examples: savespawn save house01
savespawn load house01
COMMANDS AND PROPS:
!commands - will list all available commands.
!spawnlist (number) - will list the props that can be spawned. <//td>
There are 8 spawnlists. !spawnlist 1 through !spawnlist 8
I suggest printing the command list and all 8 spawnlists for reference while building.
Have fun

We haven't had a tutorial this good since the wiki went down.
Well done!

You should add how to get to console if you have never done it before.. Can be hard for newbies.

It's already in there. Read the first few lines at the top of the tutuorial

I mean how to enable the console, Press Escape, then click options, go to the keyboard tab, and click advanced. Finally check off: [ X ] Enable developer console (~) ... I just remember it being hard to enable it when I first joined mR

Achivement Unlocked: Major Devotion.
I don't think any other member has been this devoted to the Hl2dm in a long time, This will be really nice for new users, It should be on the Homepage.

There should be a wiki backup somewhere, this is good too, but the wiki...
RE: mR Building - Basic Tutorial - Lladar - 09-21-2010
I love you.

Newbies learning to build on mR usually are not registered users of this forum.
Can this be put somewhere that can be viewd by a guest not logged in?
