hiho,
Is there an option to display text when you enter a region in the map?

    It's called location. Should be in your entities window. Let's see what I can come up with for a tutorial on this :D

    hiho,

    Oh thanks. But how do you trigger it. There is no section for it what the location should do? Maybe this is not implemented yet?

    There should be implementation on it, if not, then you'll have to wait :] It's usually in the entity window. func_location used to be the old school one for HL1 :O

    hiho,
    Location is already implemented. But theres no option to create a text when you enter the location entity.
    You can only change the position value and the name etc. .

    func_location good, old, hl1 time. :D

    sry i didn't find this earlier!

    there is a way to change a location's name. you have to do it in the properties of that location entity.

    now here's the trick, you can't just type it in, that would be silly.

    open up notepad, type the name of your location (spaces included), copy the line of text, go into the editor, click on the location name, CTRL + V or APPLE + V into the field and then click on a different field in that properties box. Bam, done.

    the name or the location is what the game will display when you run into the location.

    hiho,
    doesn´t work for me. :/ Maybe i do a misstake.

    Here a screenshot:

    I copied the text from notepad++ into the line "name" or should i copy it in the line where "location" stands?

    No, don't change the location part, try hitting keypad enter after pasting, it works, I've done it.
