Left 4 Dead 2 Authoring Tools Released

[Hectic Glenn]

All I want for Christmas is an SDK is the title this blog entry gets on the L4D2 blog. Today Valve will be releasing the Left 4 Dead 2 authoring tools where mod makers will be able to play around and make their own maps and campaigns. A pretty quick release compared to L4D1's tools!

We have included an updated tutorial to help you get going and as always you can join the discussion on the map designer email list. What we want for New Years is to get to play your custom maps in Left 4 Dead 2

The tools also offer control over gameplay logic, director logic & you can even make your own scavenge mode maps. L4D2 Blog.

Great stuff! Didn't expect it so soon

I'll get down to using this as soon as I get a break from uni. May even use it with my final year project

I think the L4D maps have already been ported. A friend of mine said he saw them on some site
