    Hopefully we'll do these things:
    1. Setup and intro - for those of you that forgot to install hammer
    2. More basics - I'll quickly cover what I did last time as well as what I forgot to cover
    3. Planning and KOTH theory - I'll quickly talk about king of the hill and you guys can plan you own koth map on paper
    4. KOTH tutorial - how to build a spawn room and working control point, and some useful tools for speedy mapping
    5. Build your map and I'll make myself available for questions and helping out (you should have at least an hour for this)
    Here's the handout so far: rev0.5
    And here's the grid that you'll be drawing on: 5120x5120
    I'll print as many as there are attendees in this thread

    I'll probably pop along for the first part if that's ok? (as I don't play TF2 so not too interested in the KOTH part)

  10. Harold Saxon Honourable

    Sorry, I can't come. I may be able to pop in nearer towards the end, depending on when I finish visiting family and how much time I need to get ready for the evening.

    That's too bad zero and Harold - hopefully we'll manage to record it in some way or another.
    It'll be good practice and I'll be there in person so it could be worth staying even if you don't play TF2. A lot of what you will learn is transferable to other Source games (multiplayer fps in particular).
