| Call of Duty 2 Mapping Tutorial All-in-One by HyPeR |
This tutorial is made for English users only or fluently spoken english people that are from different countries. My apologies go out as i can only speak english.
This tutorial includes everything you need to know about basic mapping. Even if you think, i want to make something better than basic like I did when i first started out, this really is the tutorial for you, it has everything you need to know to make a really good map for Call of Duty 2.
The tutorial includes descriptions, instructions, screenshots and links to downloads which you will need in order to create a map and successfully run a map (You do not have to worry about downloading files as they are virus free - i have scanned them many times before with AVG and Mcafee). The downloads that are linked in with the tutorial are as follows:
1.Cod2Radiant (Cod2 mapping tool) - This is needed to actually create the map
2. .iwd file - This will be needed so that you can run your map on Call of Duty 2 for testing and to play on servers with.
3. .gsc file - This is needed to put into your .iwd file in order so that you can have the correct team on your map i.e. American/British/Russian and German (All explained in the tutorial).
4. .arena file - This will be kept in your .iwd file so that you can change the name of the Map on the loading screen etc. and what gametypes the map will run.

| HyPeR's Cod2 Mapping tutorial (Beginners) |
This tutorial was written to help out the new mapper by explaining what the basic files required are and what they do when ingame to help you have a better knowledge of mapping in Call of Duty 2. The tutorial includes descriptions, instructions, and an image which you will need in order to create and successfully run a map! 1.Cod2Radiant (Cod2 mapping tool) - This is needed to actually create the map 2. .map file - This file is the map itself. It is made with the Radiant program and can be edited with notepad. Do not include this in your IWD unless you want people to be able to edit your map. Im serious about this. 3. .d3dbsp - This is the compiled version of the map, ready to be played in CoD2, after packed first. 4. .iwd file - This will be needed so that you can run your map on Call of Duty 2 for testing and to play on servers with. The .iwd file is a zip where you will put the compiled .map (.d3dbsp) in maps/mp, and any additional files, i.e. sound, scripts. It is recommended you use WinZip, WinRAR, or simply renaming the mapname.zip file (with all the component of the map) to maname.iwd. 5. .gsc file - This file is optional. It can be used for adding extra commands to your map, like a moving platform or changing the teams. 6. .arena file - This will make your map show up on the Start a New Server map list, or show up in voting. Please note, that while its recommended you have this file, it is not required. Here is what the IWD file should look like.
