Can anyone write a short tutorial on setting up, and what is needed for a minimal map? Thanks!

you cant map for dod:s yet because there is no FGD available. Alternatively you can simply map using Half-Life2 and add in the dod:s specific entities at a later date.

read some stickies.

Wrong, you can map. I've seen several releases. So it is possible.

The maps you've seen are either...

1) Made in CS:S or HL2: DM
2) Made in DoD:S beta test from months ago.
3) Made in the preview copy of DoD:S, which is no longer available to those users

You can't make maps using Source yet, so just wait.

I've played 3 custom made maps on DoD: SOURCE. It IS possible.

Ok, mapping sucessfully setup, atleast the running part. Create 4 entity's (minimal); info_player_start, and rename 2 of them to "info_player_axis" and the other 2 "info_player_allies". Then it will run :D.

yeah it's called opening the BSP in notepad. How is that professional mapping in any way? Hammer exists for a reason you know...

Ok guru, thatns for the tip :eek: . Anyone know any of the skybox's I can drop into hammer? ex: sky_dod_01?

If this post shows up more that one, it's because Charter Internet is the worst service in the world :D.

That's for HL2:

and that's for CSS:

You might have some luck figuring out the names of the DODS ones by looking at your console ingame right after the map loads up. Mind you they'll all be HDR

No luck on the consol, tried it. I need DoD skies.

try looking in the dod GCF file, I found lots in there...

Just ripped open a map and it appears that "sky_dod_01_hdr" is a working skymap, I'll try it now.

Tested: it works! YEH!
