[tutorial]gsc modding for beginners[tutorial]

[griezel32]

Can a mod please sticky it then i do not have to repost this if it gets lost.

hey guys here is a code to begin youre mod this is not a mod.
this is just the basic.
1.make a word file on youre modernwarfare2 folder.
2.right click on it then add to archive (you must have winrar).
3.name it rank.gsc.
4.make a new map called map then in that map create folder named mp in that map create agin a new folder .named gametypes.
5.you now have a map and a rank.gsc move youre rank.gsc.
to maps then in that map move youre rank.gsc in the map mp and then move youre rank.gsc file to youre gametypes.
6.open rank.gsc with any text editor.
7.copy and paste this code into youre rank.gsc:

#include common_scripts\utility;
#include maps\mp\_utility;
#include maps\mp\gametypes\_hud_util;

8.now you just have to get some codes in to the rank.gsc
9.codes can be found at this adress:https://www.mpgh.net/forum/308-call-d...ing-codes.htmlor this adress:https://www.mpgh.net/forum/308-call-d...dvar-list.html
if you have any questions well post a comment then and people will help you..
credits goes to :ME.
for creating this tutorial hope you can now make youre own mods.

I did not understand it at all/

[griezel32]

lol? well ye...

[ihackmw2]

notepad is much way better, and this isnt rlly a gsc tut. Its more where to make your script -.-

[griezel32]

em ye its says for beginners more detailled turtorial will folow laterz

[lolhack8808]

Even pros cant get it.

[ThrowTheCat]

id'e say this is a good tutorial for noobs on gsc (like me) and it helped me sorta, but alot of this information is already present in guides made already. Although i found some information that hasnt been included in some yet =)

[Blubb1337]

Please use some proper format in your 1st post to make it more readable.

OK I KNOW ALOT ABOUT THIS ALREADY JUST WERE THE FUCK DO U PUT CAMMO FOR THE GUN :s i dno were iv tryed in lods of different places.

also is there a way to put 3 attachments on 1 weapon

[spiritwo]

It's actually better to use something such as notepad or notepad++ instead of word..

OK I KNOW ALOT ABOUT THIS ALREADY JUST WERE THE FUCK DO U PUT CAMMO FOR THE GUN :s i dno were iv tryed in lods of different places.

also is there a way to put 3 attachments on 1 weapon

Ok so for example we take:

self giveWeapon( "scar_fmj_mp", 6, false);

The 6 in that line of code determines the camo, which in this case is red tiger

im in the prosses of learning c++ also
so of 6 os red tiger then i can work out that 5 is urban ?

hey great job this is exactly what i was asking for pretty much a default code to add things to but I just think you need to explain it better. Also you need to make a part 2 or something explaining how to add in codes and explaining the { things and all that advanced stuff.

[ihackmw2]

think this is better for you your not a beginner https://www.mpgh.net/forum/323-call-d...c-dummies.html
