Just Bought Torque. Need Help. Read guides. No Help.

#1 I dunno. Why did you get the SDK. What do you want to do with it?

#2 Do the torque tutorial, download quark and read the quark help files, build some simple difs and put them in the map

#3 Maybe going throught the MinApp tutorials would help you get a better understanding of Torque

#4 Where do I download QuArK? (Just used the tutorial, want to make interiors) Is QuArK Mac compatiable?

#5 No. For the Mac, you will have to play with Radiant and get it to work correctly. At least until Constructor comes out.

#6 And Radiant is where? (i've heard about constructor, can't wait till it comes out. just hope it doesn't cost too much)

#7 Radiant site

#8 It says Linux/Win, wheres Mac (sorry for asking so many questions)

#9 Did you notice that on the download page, there's a OSX: See Wiki link?

#10 Thank you so much. Oh and one last thing before I go: I know you can rotate the way your facing in the game, but is it possible to change the scripting so you can in the world editor? Thank you.

#11 You mean the camera's transform? Or the player model in third-person? I'm not sure what you're asking.

#12 What I'm asking is in the toggle camera in thw world editor, I'm always facing forward (let's say it's north). I can move the using W, S, D, and A, but I can't look in another direction (lets say east, west and south). What I'm getting at is that I can't turn around.

#13 Hold the right mouse button down and you can mouselook in the Mission Editor.

#14 Hold your right-click and move the mouse.

EDIT: Curse you Fairfax for being lightning fast! Or lightninger fast than me!

#15 Macs have two-button mice now?

#16 This is so unfair. I'm so uncompatabile.

Yes, might mice for macs have right click. I'm using a wireless mouse though.

I hope ctrl-clicking works.

And I'm on a question spree: how do you start Radiant and get it to work for Torque?!?

#17 If you want to use Apple Pro apps or most modeling software, you'll want to pick up a three-button scroll mouse. I can't imagine not using one in Final Cut, Logic, Shake, Lightwave, Modo, or really anything. Especially for anything that you will be using hot-keys with like crazy. I bought a $5 Microsoft mouse and it was money well spent. It upped my workflow significantly in Pro apps since I could use each hand to do different things without having to worry about CTRL'ing.

I haven't used Radiant on the Mac for much. I use 3D World Studio and Quark on my Tablet PC. But I'll be using Constructor on my Mini and G5.

#18 I see the need for some serious starter tutes here. Anyone want to start a thread pointing new-comers in the right direction?

#19 Seems like most of his problems are with him being on a weak development platform.

#20 I agree someone should release a torque primer for mac users.

then again all you really need to do is get radiant to work for torque which shouldnt be too hard to figure out.
