Hey All, Lately I have been thinking of new gametypes...and so, I want to try to make one...Has anyone here ever made one such as freezetag? I am really good at modding weapons...but I would like to get a start on gametypes now...the only problem is, I don't know where to start. Does anyone know a tutorial, or will some1 post instructions to get started. I know it will be hard, but it will be fun when its done. If you tink you can help, please leave any info about it. I hope you can help, Sniper PS: my xfire is ganonspuppet

The best place to find out how to do it is by checking the stock gametype files.. go over them again and again until you know what each function does, why it's called and how it works... then go over them again :p Also check out gametype mods.. There is no tutorial on making gametypes, because that's a very broad subject..Totally depends on what you want your gametype to be like. Just like there isn't one "how to make your MP map" tutorial.. because only YOU know what your map should look like.
