Map makeing in H-l2

[mayro]

First post on the fourm although im a frequant visitor.... with the impending release of halflife 2 i take it apon myself to prepair to learn the new tools for makeing maps. With halflife 2 no longer will it be the 3d model's that get all the credit. Half life 2 maps will be works of art and i cant wait to play with the new system. With from what i can remember the maps are much bigger and we can use cars. Also setting up cool events and objects for people to use will be awsome.

So to change the tone of the board instead of talking about release dates, lets talk about what we can do to make half life 2 a better game than it already is!

Battlefeild Halflife anyone?

Worldcraft tutorials

I posted these tutorials in the Custom Map Forum (inspired by BwMaster's similar awesome post). Hope it helps for you to be on your way to mapping goodness!

yet it was quite easy, but the polycount limit and the bsp engine was... limiting.
I hope I'll be able to create a little SP mini-mod after the game is released.
