With this community of free information one who knows nothing of mapping can learn to:
Create buildings and rivers and moving vehicles and landscape and buildable objects and destructible
objects and carryable objects and custom graphics and light entities and scripts and eventually....
.... a map that might be interesting and playable.
I never talked to any of these individuals but their info on the web is invaluable:
2bit, Marko, Lowlife, Surface, Ydnar, Ifurta, Chavo, Drakir, Erik-Ftn, NIB, Roeltje, Spyjuice, Amethyst 7
