Counter-strike Modding Tutorial!
« on: May 08, 2005, 05:56:00 PM »

A map pack will be released soon!  biggrin.gif

as of right now, they go over your maps, but just make another copy of cs before doing this, but once we figure out how toadd the maps to your menu, which probably wont happen anytime soon because were in the early stages of moddding CSX, you wont have to worry about overwrighting your old ones.

For some reason, csx dosent want to work well with .Wad files that are commonly known to be used with the pc version, so only maps with injected textures will work right. As of now, im trying to figure that out, i have a program that can view everything inside of a .bsp, but it dose not allow injecting, although the Steam SDK dose, but i have no clue wtf im doing with that, says gameinfo.txt is missing blah blah blah. So, this modding isnt as easy as it sounds.  blink.gif

If you want to help out by modding, go here:

http://multiex.xentax.com/ and download their program, although, the demo version only allows extracting of the .SXWad, it dosent allow injecting or batch recompiling, which the registered version dose, so you will be needing a CD-key. Commit to them in some way Ex: - Make a script for a game, or help them in some way that they like, or just donate 5 dollars, (the easy way  ) and you will get a CD-Key for the program!  wink.gif

Then once youve done that, take a map, (de_dust.SXWad in this case) and inject a new map over maps\de_dust.bsp. REMEMBER! You have to name the new map de_dust.bsp or it will NOT be picked up by the game. After that, get a hex editing program and hex some files (only 2 or them, so calm down) or your textures will be SOOOO messed up. (i learned from these mistakes  ).  tongue.gif

Go into the map and look for d:\media\textures\de_dust.xpr and d:\media\textures\de_dust_detail.xpr and name them to d:\media\textures\de_dust.bak and d:\media\textures\de_dust_detail.bak or the game will detect these and overwright the bult in textures and make everything dark and FuNkY!  ohmy.gif

THATS IT!!! youve made your own CSX mod, but a lot of maps do not work that way, some require batch recompiling, which you should find out on your own sometime.  uhh.gif

List of maps that work without any problems:

de_dust.SXWad
de_fastline.SXWad
de_truth.SXWad
de_airstrip.SXWad

If you have any problems just email, aim, or pm me!!!

If you want to help AIM me most likely to get in touch with you, never really check my email, and never really am notified of PM's so AIM!!

I almost have a full game of new maps and models! so far, the maps done are listed below:

fy_m4a1woods

fy_dust2k3

Aim_ak-colt-arena

fy_2bunkers

fy_snow

fy_scout

THERE WILL BE ALL NEW MAPS!! This is just my progress within a week, EVERYTHING modded so far was done by me, not the maps, just the mods. I cant believe no one is modding this since its been figured out! I know a lot of ppl still play this, but havent they herd of MultiEx Commander?? IT SUPPORTS CS XBOX!
Plz mod this, maybe when i release mine, people will be influnced and try to mod this  But i prommise, after the modding comes the FUN part!! i will probably be releasing the Pack tomorrow or Thursday! BUT its only a beta, so if their are bugs in the maps, let me know, and i will try to fix them!  

 Happy modding!  laugh.gif

use ppf studio, or somthing. You select the original map, then the modded map, and it makes a .ppf to change the original to the modded. its real easy

thx, i have fy_snow, kinda like fy_iceworld, but no where in comparison because fy_iceworld is THE origional fy map  laugh.gif

If anyone wants to help just get thet program, only donate 5 dollars, or find a cd key from someone  tongue.gif .  Im telling you, if youve had experince with cs pc, this will be so easy for you, its like THE exact same, except xbox version is in one big file and dosent use .Wad's (which is one of my problems of using trextures as of now). Please i cant belive im the only one modding this  laugh.gif .  The map pack would be released so soon if i could get help, or if someone could help me figure out how to inject textures into .bsp  smile.gif

Good work dude...
I'm not sure about textures in .bsps, but if you want to do some gun skinning/modelling i have a program that can decompile the .mdl files.
I'm gonna do some maps too, specifically de_rats....
By the way, what do the bots do on these new .bsps, run into walls?

umm on some maps they just jump around, but on aim maps, thery shoot at each other, just like a normal bot would do, theirs a .nav file and some others, im pretty dure the file that tells them where to go is in there somewhere, i dunno, but when this is made, im planning on playing with real HUMANS, i cant stand bots, their too stubborn  mad.gif well, if you want theirs a program that lets you view whats inside a .bsp, makes it much easier rather than just testing maps, for textures. its lkocated at:

http://nemesis.thewa...ex.php?c=76#p76

its an awesome tool, well, still working on how to add textures to a .bsp, as hex editing a file path of a .wad then injecting it dosent seem to work  dry.gif
