Engine

Am I wrong in saying the Orangebox engine can use this as well? --cheesemoo0 22:28, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

I believe everything in episode 1 was carried over to the orangebox engine, so you're right. Solokiller 22:59, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

How does this even work?

I see one mention of this entity in the VBSP source code, and all that section does is remove the entity from the entity lump. If this actually works, how does VBSP actually write it?

Oh, it seems to do it earlier, in the OverlayTransition_UpdateSideLists() function. Still a bit unsure how it actually works, though; don't see anything reading the KVs….

No, that code executes after the overlay is deleted. Going to mark this as {{ent not in fgd}}.

it's handled by hammer in special way and saved in vmf "overlaytransition" block in the entity. Check here --Nescius (talk) 12:26, 8 March 2025 (PST)
