By making them.

A good guide are the stock coD2 files. Take a look in the .iwd files and look for the loading screens and see how they're made.. same goes for the .gsc and .arena files.

That's the compiled version of carentan, you need something to run carentan with, don't you? :)

.csv file: Only needed if you have custom sounds.

CoD2 is nbot CoD1, some files may be named different or in a different place.

coD2 for instance doesn't use .dds files.. and the maps aren't in .bsp format but in .d3dbsp.
Look around in the .iwd files again. The rest of your requested files are all there.
Mapping takes time, time to figure things out.

They did help.. they gave you all the stock files to work with. Mapping takes time and learning. Learning by looking around and figuring things out.

1) You don't need the d3dprt file
2) you don't need those gametype files, they come with the stock CoD2 already.

All you need to play it is:

the .d3dbdp file
the .gsc file
both in the /maps/mp folder

optional:

arena file in the /mp folder.

Once again.. look around. download a SP to MP conversion and check out what foles nad folders they used. Do some work.

You're releasing a map, not us.
