Notes
- Surfaces – Indicates whether the editor displays the names of all surface flags for textures.
- MDX – Indicates whether the editor can load MDX models. Half means the editor can load MDX models but cannot load multiple MDX models simultaneously.
- textureinfo.ini – Indicates whether the editor automatically loads surface flags from the textureinfo.ini file.
- BSP – Indicates whether the editor can edit BSP files. In most cases, this is limited to editing Entities rather than modifying BSP geometry.
