Okay well I got radiant about 2 weeks and made a really cool Zombox sort of map. I would like someone to explain to me the following IN DETAIL PLEASE. (I I would appreciate it if you would answer one of them).

1. How do I make an elevator
2. How do I make a portal
3. How do I make moving doors
4. How do I make my map so it can be played as a zombie map
5. Letting other play my map

Now you would think, why doesn't this person just read the forums? Well I tried and they are impossible for me to understand for i don't know what most of the stuff they say is. But don't get me wrong, thinking that I have no clue what to how to use any of radiant, because I have huge map that took about 4 days to make and these are the only things i do not understand that i want in my map. Could someone please write a better tutorial or explain to me here?

4/5 of these were in the tutorials

1. Step-by-step for Elevators: http://www.modsonline.com/Tutorials-read-169.html
2. Portal as in a teleporter? http://www.modsonline.com/Tutorials-read-569.html
3. http://www.modsonline.com/Tutorials-read-566.html
4. All it needs to be set up for is tdm, so just tdm spawns
5. http://www.modsonline.com/Tutorials-read-333.html

I know they were in the tutorials and I read them but i don't understand all these things like with notepad, and what to type in it, and what to save it as, and where to save it too. And along with making it a zombie map and a map i can let others play with me, when i click start new server zom is not one of the options, end i can't let other join my map/server. And along with elevators, the step where he says to put in the model. button by right clicking and going under misc I cannot find the model. thingy. Any way I can get it?

Most what you don't 'understand', like where to save the things too, are covered in those tutorials. Read the GSC tutorial on how to create a basic GSC file. It should say where to save it, which will be where all your maps GSC files should be saved at.

As for the model, its not there. He adds the model in there to make an elevator switch. You don't need it anyway to get the tutorial to work. You can just make a square out of brushes to give an indication of where the elevator switch. The more important part in that section of the tutorial is making the trigger.

For the zombie game type, it is not something that came stock with Call of Duty 2, thus not being in your game type list. It is a mod that you will have to download. You probably played it on a server, but did not download the mod (as far as the scripts go) because it was server-side and maybe thought you already had it.

Codmp accually i don't have any server mods downloaded because when i was getting the mod tools i had to unistall cod2 from my f drive (200gb mass storage device) and put it on the C:programsfiles/activision/cod2 folder (the default installation folder) along with the mod tools. I used to have every zombie server's mods but they were deleted during that change. and if your wondering I have not even played cod2 since the reinstallation because concerned if the downloaded items would mess and make my cod2 folders confusing.

Now what i wrote above is regarding the thing about making it a zom map. And how can i download the mod?

This im writing here regaurds the .gsc file. Im looking through the tutorial you suggested and when it says create a new txt, does that mean use notepad?

Like I said, all you add is tdm spawns.
/g_gametype zom
/map mp_mapname

why don't you guys instead of pick on him like an ass just ask him what he's having a hard time understand.

So to keep this on topic what is it that you are having a hard time understanding with each one.

Accually I figured out how to make portals, and I'm pretty sure I know my elevators, but I'm not sure. Right now I'm working on figuring out doors. And with my last to questions, letting others play my map and playing as a zombie gametype, I haven't gotten to finish my map yet so those aren't a concern right now. So I will post any questions I have on these things when they come up. Thanks Shelok those people weren't really helping me, besides clanhelio somwhat.

Alright np man. I can help ya out once your ready.
