Some questions about mapping

[jacketsj]

1st, how do I make spawners team specific?
2nd, how do I add presents? (if I will be the one to add them)
thats all i have, but plz answer!

The deathrun plugin generates the presents, so u dont have to worry about that at all. Same for the weapons at spawn (the mod gives everyone a crowbar and removes all others)

Team-specific spawns:
info_player_rebel (make about 30-40)
info_player_combine (make about 4-6)
info_player_deathmatch (make 1 - sets up the spectate view when someone enters the server)
**Note: dont use any info_player_start

none of those except info_player_start appear for me. note: im using the 2009 engine, because when i use the mp engine, it gives me some errors, though they don't appear there either.
thats kink of weird, you know whats going on ant? or anyone else?

edit: nvr mind, fixed it, needed the hl2mp game data file

If your mapping for hl2dm, use Source Engine MP, if you want to use Source Engine 2006, you have couple of problems, but to fix it, go on YouTube, search for Demon's YouTube channel and he will show you.
Anyway, it's very important that you use info_player_deathmatch. Why ? Even if you go deathmatch way, player_start goes on deathmatch mode and not on teammatch mode. Well, it's a bit confused to understand this because player_deathmatch and player_start are quite the same thing.

If you use 2009, there will some couple of things to do to make it works. Search on YouTube. Personally, since MP Engine came, I don't use 2009. I'm using MP, I've tested out 2006 and it works too.

You should use the MP engine tho cuz 2006 is more buggy and more crash likey

no. it's mp_teamplay affecting it. it doesnt matter u use info_player_start/deathmatch as u can play HL2SP maps in HL2MP and there is no such thing. original GM_Flatgrass uses info_player_start .... and ... it doesnt make a fucking diffrence does it.

or use mine tutourial as it works for any engine (2006,2007,2009,MP)

Theres a bunch of info_player_start on that map and you all spawn at the same point i think. I'm pretty sure info_player_start overrides all other spawn points - at least thats what it used to do a long time ago.

decompiled map.
shitloads of info_player_starts
goes into hl2dm -> always spawns @ 1 spawnpoint
goes into gmod -> spawns @ random spots
