ZHLT opens up as a folder right., cuz i downloaded of the instruction site bu superjer and when i open its a folder with files in which, some are two of my maps which when i double click on my map files in ZHLT one is a MAP file and the other is a MAX file, for example, one looks like random.map and the oher is random.max. the map one when double clicked opens up like this in notepad {
"classname" "worldspawn"
"MaxRange" "4096"
"mapversion" "220"
"wad" "\program files\steam\steamapps\cstrike\cstrike.wad"
{
( -128 256 0 ).....and so on

and the max file when double clicked ssays windows cannot open this file blah blah blah what do you want to do .use web or select a program to open it so i select note pad and it opens up just like the map file

i think one of my main problems when making a map is step 6 or 7 i think. it says go to folder options and make sure that hide something isnt checked or what ever. how do i get to folder options ive tried everyithng. after that i think i might get a little better because i think im doing the map making right just not the complex saving, and al the files n shit
User
how do i get extensions showing in explorer
and how to i get the map to not be a BAT file
User
okaay i got rid of the first part of read me.
but as i tried again the same thing happened
i double click and it opens as a read me file in notepad but one says its a MAP file other says MAX file??
also, for i think step six, when i exported them, they were still just the files
like the ones called stuff like hlbsp and other things are called applications and not exe. or whatever. it said i have to go to tools>options and turn of something but icant find it.
is the file called mapname.bat supposed to be a text file
User
alright ill try that and see if it works thanks
User
