.Installation Highlighting rules
To install them:
- Download the languages on GitHub here
- Extract the XML files to
%appdata%/Notepad++/userdefinelangs/
%appdata%
should automatically resolve to a full path.
Filenames
You can see the custom extensions which had been set up for this purpose in the list above.
If you want to set a language manually in Notepad++, use the Language
menu.
Compiling QC model scripts
You can compile QCs directly from Notepad++ with the NppExec plugin. Install it either from Plugins > Plugin Manager or by downloading directly from SourceForge.
With NppExec installed, press F6 and enter the following command. Change the path to studiomdl to match your system and your target engine branch:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\alien swarm\bin\studiomdl.exe" -nop4 -r "$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)"
Press OK to compile.
