Welcome to BrowEdit!

Installation

Just unzip browedit3.zip somewhere on your hard disk and you're good to go. Before you had to edit configuration files, now browedit comes with a configuration editor. The first time you launch browedit you will get the window. You can always open this again through the |Edit|Configure| menu options. In the configuration window, make sure you add your grf file and set up your RO directory. Sometimes the browse buttons crash, then just copy/paste or type the paths manually.

General Controls

Browedit3 is based on different panels that can be docked. When you drag the top part of a window, you'll get some little help icons on where to dock this window. It is also possible to drag windows out of the main window, so you can use multiple computer screens. A lot of boxes where you can enter numbers can be dragged to change the value with your mouse. On those textboxes, doubleclick or ctrl+click to manually type values

Camera stuff

Browedit uses a simple camera system that rotates around a point that can be moved. You can control it using the middle mouse button (and the right mouse button too for now)

• Middle mouse button to move the camera
• Shift+middle mouse button to rotate the camera
• Scrollwheel to zoom

Edit modes

• Object Edit
• Texture Edit (todo)
• Height Edit (todo)
