First time using Hammer Editor for source

SimplerName · 06-25-2015, 05:07 AM

Hey I've used hammer for a few years, making maps for Half Life, now I just setted up hammer for FF and this is my first time making a source map. Saw lots of new entities and I need some help on that, like skycamera. Also, what is the entity called info_ff_script? Do I have to make a script? Does every map need a script to play FF?

All game modes, spawn points, resupply bags, or any entity that has to do with fortress forever are made with Lua (a scripting language). But don't worry! there are a lot of examples on our ( Wiki Page ). You can also see examples from other map .lua files.

If you have any other questions, I'd be happy to help you. Good luck !
