    Working with NS, as far as entity implementation and so on is just as easy as normal mapping.

    I suggest that you read the <a href='http://www.natural-selection.org/Mapping_Guidelines.html' target='_blank'>Official NS Mapping Guidelines</a> and reading <a href='http://nsworld.ns-central.co.uk/mappingguide/MappingGuide.php' target='_blank'>ChromeAngel's Mapping Guide</a>. These are both very helpful for insight into the NS specific entities.

    And as a final thought, please try, in future, to proof read your emails for mistakes. It makes it a little easier to read and understand, and if it's written in a good way you're more likely to get a quick and concise response.

    neg, this 2 websites weren't made for newbie mappers.

    ugh, well, this 2 website might be useful after you read <a href='http://www.geocities.com/adam_tebbutt_mckern/ns.html' target='_blank'>this tutorial</a>

    edit; omg, geocities or the owner of this website deleted the tutorial. grrr, it was up yesterday.
    i'm gonna see if i have it saved somewhere and upload it.

    edit; yea i found it, but just the html file, almost all image files are missing. ;(

    And if you encounter a problem - there are many due to bugs in the current version of NS - search the forum. I'm sure by now everything has been discussed two times or more <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
