list of base.fgd entities ?

Am I right in assuming that this is a list of all entities described in the orangebox/bin/base.fgd ?

If so there seem to be quite a few missing ... there should be around 178 PointClass entities and 58 SolidClass (Brush) entities.

I'd be happy to help as long as I know what the plan is. --Beeswax 16:52, 26 Feb 2008 (PST)

  • NPC entities described in base.fgd = npc_puppet and npc_furniture. All others are in Halflife2.fgd.
  • No weapon_s or item_s are described in base.fgd. --Beeswax 21:07, 26 Feb 2008 (PST)
