Hi y'all, I've got a uni project to make a games mod, and of course counter strike source seems like a perfect option. I've also got a character design module so im trying to combine the two. I'm pretty much looking 4 advice and any cool ideas you might have. My idea is to make a mini mod, grim reaper vs 4/5 terrorists, where your job is to take him down. Kind of a juggernaught type thing. My basic plan is to make a custom map (maybe hell?), game type and add some custom models (the grim reaper) and maybe some custom skins 4 guns. Does anyone have any experience with adding custom player models into source, can you add it to work with the existing animations? Would i be better of making a skin? I'd also love to have his scythe work in game. As for the gametype, i plan to change a few options like the grim reaper can take loads of damage and move pretty slowly, maybe even fly/float. I have very little expereince with coding but feel like i could change some values in the codebase Can anyone point me in the way of any good tut's you've found or any personal advice you might have. Plus if anyone wanted to help out they would certainly be able to put there name on it, and would get mucho mucho love from me

Hello, I only have experience with mapping. I'm not sure how many people here know about modeling and stuff, you may be better off asking on these sites. www.iwannamap.comwww.interlopers.net

Cheers for the links. i'll have an ask around there for tips. i just found a link to the noesis www.noesisinteractive.com/index.php?page=shop.browse&category_id=4&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=9999 these are exactly what i needed. Any ideas on the map side of things? how could i create a nice firey hell? all i can think is loads of fire enities and skeletons. oh btw i got a first in my environment design and i feel i owe you some credit for your awesome tutorials which taught me 10 times more than my lecturer did. Thanks!

For the hell map: Use some custom water, there is a nice texture here www.fpsbanana.com/textures/652 - the red one could be blood or something. Add spikes and stuff in the ground, lots of blood decals and stuff, large pits full of fire. you could make like a large stone staircase and then a throne where the grim reaper would be, maybe he could be satan? - learn to make a custom model. Hope you get some ideas.

you could make a giant skeleton/satan head that the mouth opens when you get close. and you can go through that goes to another area
