For coding, you can use Microsoft's VS2005 C++ Express edition...I had trouble finding it my first time, so here's the link: http://www.microsoft.com/express/2005/download/default.aspx Once you're done installing all that, read: http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Compiling_under_VS2005 to set up the compiler. Then, before changing anything, try compiling it. There's about 6+ warnings, but there's 0 errors. If you have any errors it won't compile properly, and you've got to figure out where you messed up... Once you've got compiling done, I recommend the Developer Wiki that Jeremy linked. There's a page there called "My First Mod." Try that one. Coding is pretty hard, but it all depends on what you're trying to get into the game. Good luck with your mod! -BrokenTripod > Message: 1> Date: Mon, 07 Jan 2008 18:42:14 +0000> From: "Ian T.
