Basic Mapping

Home > Basic Mapping

After you've configured Hammer to run with Empires, you're ready to start making maps.

Step 1: Build a large room

Build a huge room that will represent your level. If you're doing an outdoors map with vehicles, make sure to allow lots of room.

Step 2: Add Entities

You're going to need one of each of these:

• Emp_info_params
• Emp_info_map_overview
• Emp_building_imp_barracks
• Emp_building_nf_barracks

Step 3: Flesh it out

Adding Buildings

Buildings are in the form of entities. See the Entity Index for a complete list. Buildings are the entities with building in their names.
