I played a lot of games here with you nice spring engine :) Good works by the way ;) So I registered now on this forum...


But my question:

I wanted to start out my own map and looked in the wiki for finding more information about the procedures. But the problem is for me that I don't know where to start. There're a lot of information and tutorials but I dont know which ones are outdated or whatever...

So, can you help me where to start reading and which tutorials are easy to follow, not outdated and the best?

Hope if you can answer my questions.

Cheers

imo the easiest way is to use spring map editor:

importat heightmap & texturemap in the correct sizes:
http://springrts.com/wiki/MapSizes

then use the editor as preview etc or to generate a texture.

Then test & pack your map as described here:
