    If you want a 'from scratch' mapping tutorial for NS, you won't find one. First you'll need to look at some general Half-life or Hammer tutorials to get to grips with the mapping creation tool.

    Open up Hammer (the stickies tell you how configure hammer for NS) and follow a few simple tutorials to get you started in general halflife mapping. Also checkout the VERC Mapping Community for Hammer tutorials.

    You have to spend insane amounts of time to learn mapping to any usefull degree, or you make crap like <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=88743' target='_blank'>this</a>.

    And nobody likes that.

    If you think the provided tutorials are too complex, well, you should give up now, because, guess what, so is mapping.

    its not the tutorials are too complex its that half the links are broken.. and when that happens it gets all messed up... i mean i tried looking but most of the stuff is out of date... thats why i want an up to date one. basically all i want to know is how to config hammer to ns, link it to me or something, cause the links on the stickys were broken.. =/

    The same way you would set it up for any other mod. Find a CS tutorial, but where it asks you to type CS, type NS, and where it asks you to point to the cs directory, well, you guessed it!

    there are millions of tutorials out there.
