Hi folks I have been poking through the hlsdk and some amx scripts and have a nice mod idea I have planned out. The trouble is I just don't know where to begin physically coding a completely new mod ! Also with steam sdk not yet released and, a number of posts from mod coders having steam related coding problems I am wondering if now is not the best time to get heavily involved with hl1 coding. So I suppose a few questions :
In order to get a simple (multiplayer) mod (nothing inside it, literally barebones code) running, where would I begin (no flames please I am genuine here). I have read about entries in liblist and where to place an existing mod under steam in order for it to be recognised etc and how to debug using vc, but not actually anything about "this is the place to start coding your mod, 101 create a class called blah.cpp, then some models, then maps/sounds/tex etc etc". I know it must have all been said before at some point, but has anyone got any constructive advice (stfw doesn't count :S ). If I can get some good advice/urls etc I intend to create a blog on the progress of my mod from day 1 (smile you may be in it ;) ). thanks in advance Chris (reply to me personally if you don't want to post to the list [EMAIL PROTECTED]) *********************************************** This e-mail and its attachments are confidential and are intended for the above named recipient only.
