[munkvall]

Hey and welome to my first tutorial on mpgh.
I will show u how to change the starting money in MvM the way Valve does.

First, if u dont have it yet get GFCscape.
Then install it, when u got it goto ur C:/program files/steam/steamapps/ in the steamapps folder theres a file called Team Fortress 2 content.gsc open that with GSCscape, then in GSCscape goto team fortress 2 content/tf/scripts/population/ then you have a lot of .pop files for example if we want to edit mvm_mannworks map u first decide if u want to change the advanced difficult or normal, Ill take advanced since thats what my server is running.
open the .pop file of your choice with notepad++ or any other text editor. once ur in the text editor search the document for "StartingCurrency" without the " after StartingCurrency there will be a number i think its 400 default change it to whatever u want PS. Max amount is 30000, now you have changed the starting amount of money. PS. You can play around with theese .pop files they are realy fun cause you can change the upgrades but u gotta do some math for it to fully work, you can changing waves and a lot of other stuff that is server sided.


EDIT: you need to extract the scripts folder to ur team fortress 2 directory of your server or ur game for it to work.

So you can alter these settings and play on any server with them? Or just your own server?

This is for creating a server or if u want to do it in singleplayer with a LAN server.

After I've edited the .pop file, where do I put that file at?

You just have it in ur scripts folder and it will auto load it when that map starts

I've extracted the files and changed the values of the starting money. Will I have to re-add the edited files to the GCF again so it will be registered? Because when I try to drag them back into the GCF file it doesn't let me.

(I've just tried editing the currency whilst the .pop files are already in the GCF and it changes back to 400 from 30000)

With the editing message, do you want us to extract the .pop files in the first place?

Ehm..... The edited popfiles dont go in there. They go into ur tf2 game folder where u should create a folder called "scripts" and the scripts folder should all scripts u have in ur GCF be. Then just replace the nonedited with the edited.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\(username)\team fortress 2\tf\scripts ?

It already exists and it only has hud files inside of it.

Yes thats the scripts folder.
