Talk:Dump entity sizes

Hi! Welcome to discuss about this wiki page.

Comment in sections or create new one if you want ask something.

Does this page "style" look good and else ? Pls, comment here.

What you think. Should these stuff separate in different pages... or keep it all in one page ? --Bacardi (talk) 08:20, 3 October 2017 (UTC)

Gonna put it here in case if the video might go down for whatever reasons:

First, open Notepad++ and the game, and after submitting dump_entity_sizes, copy everything from the first entity (usually _firesmoke) all the way to the end, paste it on Notepad++

Next, go to Search > Replace (or Ctrl + H), then type (or copy) "(\d+)\s+(\w)" on "Find what:" (without quotes), and type (or copy) "$1\r\n$2" on "Replace with:" (without quotes). Set search mode to Regular expression, then Replace All. After this, put "(\w+)(\:.*)" on "Find what:" (without quotes), and type (or copy) "[[$1]]$2" on "Replace with:" (without quotes), Replace All. And done. --leonidakarlach (talk) 01:19, 7 April 2025 (PDT)

Weird thing I noticed in some game is the alphaetical order being messed up. For example if you check l4d1 some entries are out of order and it was different each time I did dump_entity_sizes iirc. Not sure how that even happens. Similar thing happened in the latest and I ordered it via a python script in that case --Nescius (talk) 01:27, 7 April 2025 (PDT)

Quite sure now this issue is same as what I mentioned here caused by "mat_queue_mode 1" --Nescius (talk) 19:02, 11 April 2025 (PDT)
