Show tool

#1 I'm pretty certain it is.

Run the executable with "-show" after it, either with a command line or a windows shortcut (or equivilant)

#2 I used the quick and dirty artist approach of copying my shortcut to the .exe file and adding a parameter to it, -show. I did this with a right-click, Properties, then find the Target and edit in your special command after .exe, that worked for me.:) Hope you can find your way to it, it a quick way to check models and animations without firing up a mission. Good luck. If you're clever and know a bit of GUI creation and scripting; you could get your own button for it somewhere in the interface, and that would take a bit of working...I think that's about the quickest way perhaps.

#3 Thanks Stefan and Rex. I have tried Rex's suggestion, however, and get a warning that the name in the target box is not valid when i change the original
"C:\Documents and Settings\User\Desktop\trq_tutorial_base\Torque.exe"
to
"C:\Documents and Settings\User\Desktop\trq_tutorial_base\Torque.exe-show"

Am I misunderstanding where to put this "-show"?

#4 There should be a space between the .exe and -show

#5 I was just told about this as I had no Clue Aswell.
-show isnt enough to go on: )


No worries


Goto
start Menu and goto Run

Type in
Command

Opens up a dos window

Type in
cd c:\

then Type
cd torque

then Type
cd example

then Type
torqueDemo.exe -show
or Type
torqueDemo_DEBUG.exe -show

Name of .exe depends on I think what you name it just check your example file in torque for the exact name of your .exe
but on a freash defualt compile its named torqueDemo_DEBUG.exe

Tho I'm still looking for how to change the controls to view a model I dont like their Keyboard Inputs !!!
