i can fine alien swarm but no Alien Swarm SDK :(

@arunavsharma It's in the tools section.

Your English is fine, bro. Gotta work on the accent. Watched your vids and decided to make a club of mapmakers, considering how easy mapping is, with some friends of mine.

Told them to watch your videos. They came back the next day and said, "I couldn't understand that dude's accent!"

Thanks on behalf of...me, I guess.

[maxovitsj]

@WaronMax Well, english isn't my first language. I'm Dutch. My english has improved but I don't think the accent will ever go away. So, ye, sorry i guess..

[WaronMax]

@maxovitsj Good tutorials though. Now if only I can get a decent modeling tutorial for Wings 3D and some Source coding tutorials, I could make myself a pretty little mod.

[maxovitsj]

@WaronMax Well you could learn basic modeling by looking at other tutorials. But the coding is all C++, which is kinda hard to learn if you havent programmed before :P

[arunavsharma]

yea , i found it.. 2 gb :(

@TheZquiteGuys You need the full game. But dude, Alien Swarm is free.

Hey, max I started to make a map doing exactly what you said. I also did the func_brush thingy to fix the errors. The problem is I am getting an BLACKED OUT map in my game. And in the compiler it says: Loadportals : couldn't read e:\Steam\steamapps\common\alie­nswarm\swarm\maps\maptest.prt

I tried searching over the net for portal error but cudnt fix it. Please let me know if I am doing something wrong.

Thank you

[TheZquiteGuys]

If you want to test out the map do you need the full game or can you use the

Alien Swarm (tools mode)
