'''Add following .fgd files into your fgd list:'''
* Base.fgd
* Halflife2.fgd
* Empires.fgd (located at $SteamDir\SteamApps\SourceMods\Empires\mapsrc\fgd\empires.fgd)
 
'''The Game executable Directory should be set to:'''
$SteamUserDir\half-life 2\hl2
 
'''The game directory should be set to:'''
$SteamDir\SteamApps\SourceMods\Empires
 
'''The hammer vmf directory should be set to:'''
$SteamDir\SteamApps\$SteamUserDir\sourcesdk_content\Empires\mapsrc
