very new to modding maps.

Post by tazz0710 »

I would like to mod a few maps i have been playing with hht and hmt

Mainly in spark edit i would like to be able to add tele ports like i have seen on some other modded maps but im new and a little lost. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

go pop
in out

move them around to your liking.
to get the shield thing there, some maps have it as a scenery, and you can just put it there, otherwise, improvise. (yes! that rhymed 8) )

Make sure you didn't switch the entrance with the exit. Try putting them near each other with a scenery marking which one the entrance is.

Well, I wouldn't start posting your mods here until you get a nice feel for all of those programs and read tutorials; that way you can start posting original maps from the get-go. Modding has almost limitless capabilities if done right. Be sure to check the PC Tutorial section and try as learn as much as you can. May I recommend learning how to PMI.
