Creating a mod (NON-HL2)
Have you ever wondered if it were possible to make a mod for ex. Counter-Strike: Source or Day of Defeat: Source?
Theres only one little problem by doing this, that valve doesnt share the source code of their other games.
That means that you wont be able to code more on in the .dll file
This tutorial will explain to you how your gonna do it!
Programs used:
GCFScape
1. Find your SourceMods folder:
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\SourceMods
2. Create a new folder with the name for your new name. (No blank spaces!)
3. Find your SteamApps folder:
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps
4. Select what game you would like to make a mod for:
Counter-Strike: Source
counter-strike source shared.gcf
Day of Defeat: Source
day of defeat source.gcf
5. Open your .gcf file for the game you selected

"GameInfo"
{
game "My Game: Source"
title "MY GAME"
title2 "source"
9. If you want a game icon and a developer/manual text on the steam list, do following:
Open Gameinfo.txt in Go to C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\SourceMods\YOUR MOD FOLDER
"GameInfo"
{

title "MY GAME"
title2 "source"
icon "resource/steamicon"
developer "My Game Team"
