L4D Beta Authoring Tools

[Sathor]

Fap fap fap.

L4D just updated for me, too. Is that the about mentioned earlier?

[Mess]

can everyone promise to make campaigns and not survival maps please

[Au-heppa]

I took a look at No Mercy map, and sigh, now I really want to make a L4D map

[ad_hominem]

I love valve. I mean, 2 TF2 updates at once, and the L4D SDK? Have they gone mad?

[Psy]

Does Hammer have anything new or fancy?

[Mess]

Lightning strikes through color_correction, that's clever

[Lobstar]

Sweet i will totally start mapping in source again when the SDK is out. Cant wait

It is out you gimp, this is the SDK.

:O HOLY BUTTCHEEKS OF JESUS IT IS !

[MayheM]

it does seem to be a bit glitchy but I have two things to say about that.

a. beggars can't me choosers (and we have been begging for this for a while now)
b. it is in fact a beta so what do we expect.

I for one, am happy as all hell this is finally out. I can not wait to get started...

[Megadude]

Is it just me, or are the textures applied to brushes much much brighter than they are in the texture browser?

[marnamai]

I am gonna try to make an objective based survival map that can be won.

[Megadude]

survival map that can be won.

A.K.A campaign map.

[marnamai]

Well if you can call one map a campaign ... ok

[Pwnd_Ja]

Gah, this is terrible. It's finally here and the provided Hammer wont work. /sad

[Mess]

I'm working on a 3-map campaign which features larger more open environments like the church level in death-toll... that's my favourite level and I always fatigue after about three maps in the official campaigns.

I think a group of mappers should port the entire HL2 campaign to L4D.

But regardless, Ravenholm seems like the best chapter to port, for obvious reasons.
