Files Needed For Ns Mapping?

Slavecycle · June 2003

<div class="IPBDescription">I'm going to give mapping a go.</div> Do I need to download any NS config type files for Hammer? (like I've had to download back when I was going to map for CS)

All you need is hammer, and zoner tools, the ns.fgd is located in your ns folder which you`ll need to place specific natural selection objects and gamemodes down, I highly suggest doing some halflife deathmatch test map builds before jumping straight into ns, as ns can be slightly more advanced, due to size of maps.

Good places to learn are :

and there is a thread where someone collected all tools needed to start mapping. He just did not include my favorite map-editor QuArK <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'>

I haven't made any deathmatch/cstrike/tfc maps of any kind and I'm finding NS mapping... not... impossible, anyway.

^This is useful if you've already got an understanding of making maps with hammer. There are a lot of tutorials out there on how to use the program itself, if you don't already know how to make a simple box map with a spawn point and some lights, then I suggest you start small.
