<H3> 5.5.3 Step 3: Configuring `<TT>map2cs</TT>' </H3>
<!--docid::SEC190::-->
<P>
`<TT>map2cs</TT>' is configured by a special configuration file called
`<TT>map2cs.cfg</TT>', located within the 'D:\Crystal\CS\data\config\' directory.
If you need support for multiple configurations, you can use several
configuration files, but for now we will restrict ourselves to just one file.
Open up `<TT>map2cs.cfg</TT>' in you favourite editor and edit it, so it looks like
the following template:
</P><P>
<TABLE><tr><td> </td><td class=example><pre>Map2CS.TextureSettings.DefaultTexture = liquids/bubbles
Map2CS.TextureSettings.wad1 = D:\Crystal\Wads\cstex_1.wad
Map2CS.TextureSettings.wad2 = E:\Sierra\HalfLife\valve\halflife.wad
Map2CS.TextureSettings.wad3 = E:\Sierra\HalfLife\valve\xeno.wad
Map2CS.TextureSettings.wad4 = E:\Sierra\HalfLife\valve\liquids.wad
Map2CS.TextureSettings.wad5 = E:\Sierra\HalfLife\valve\texpack.wad
Map2CS.TextureSettings.pk1 = D:\Games\Quake3A\baseq3\pak0.pk3
Map2CS.TextureSettings.pk2 = D:\Games\Quake3A\baseq3\mapmedia.pk3
Map2CS.General.Scaling = 0.025
Map2CS.General.UseBSP = 1
Map2CS.General.RemoveHidden = 0
Map2CS.General.LightScale=30
System.ApplicationID = Map2CS
</pre></td></tr></table></P><P>
The only thing you will probably need to adjust in the supplied
`<TT>map2cs.cfg</TT>' is the texture path (setting for
`<SAMP>Map2CS.TextureSettings.wad1</SAMP>' etc.). If you need more wads, you need to
add them as `<TT>wad5</TT>', `<TT>wad6</TT>' and so on. If you have Quake3-style
texture files, you can add them by `<TT>Map2CS.TextureSettings.pk3=<small>...</small></TT>',
`<TT>Map2CS.TextureSettings.pk4=<small>...</small></TT>', and so on.
</P><P>
Now Windows and DOS users need to create a batch file to compile and run
a map. The batch file should be stored as `<TT>D:\Crystal\LevBuild.bat</TT>'
and contain the following commands:
</P><P>
<TABLE><tr><td> </td><td class=example><pre>cd CS
map2cs ..\maps\%1.map data\%1.zip
walktest %1
cd..
</pre></td></tr></table></P><P>
From the command-line (the MS-DOS prompt for Windows and DOS users)
change to the directory `<TT>D:\Crystal</TT>'. Type `<SAMP>LevBuild.bat
yourmapsname</SAMP>'. Now, if everything is properly installed and you have a file
`<TT>yourmapsname.map</TT>' in your `<TT>maps</TT>' directory (if you have downloaded
the binary Crystal Space distribution for map making, you have), then you
should see the following output:
</P><P>
<TABLE><tr><td> </td><td class=example><pre>map2cs, Copyright (C) 1999 by Thomas Hieber
Reading map `..\Maps\yourmapsname.map'
Map contains:
6 Entities
26 Brushes
118 Unique planes
Writing world `data\yourmapsname.zip'
done.
</pre></td></tr></table></P><P>
Right after that, a new window should appear, that contains the Crystal Space
startup console with lots of text in it. After some time, you should have
loaded you first self-compiled map.
