Finalsun beginner questions

[Aquaman183]

Hello everyone! I just found out about finalsun and I'm excited to start trying to map some multiplayer maps. I looked online and in the forum some and the best tutorial I found was by lucasSK. I looked through that but it looked more like definitions of things in finalsun instead of.."you should do this first followed by this etc.."

Does anyone know of a more step by step guide?

Also, is there a way to start off with a preexisting map like firestorm and edit that map specifically?

Lastly, should do I need to download any other files besides finalsun?

Thank you for any help y'all can give to point me in the right direction.

Everyone has their own mapping style, thus its kind of hard to say what should be done first when mapping ?

You can pull the map from the game files.

Origin Tiberian Sun, or grab TS Client (by Rampastring)
