REDFLAG AND BLUEFLAG SPAWN AN INFO INTERMISSION SPAWN A INFO DEATHMATCH SPAWN AND WHAT EVER OTHER SPAWN ENITIES I COULD FIND …

MABEY IM JUST A COMPUTER ILLITERATE… I DUNNO THOUGHT ID ENJOY MAKING A MAP AND YES I UNDERSTAND THAT ALOT OF PPL TAKE TIME TO MAKE MAPS BUT IT DONT HELP ME TO MUCH WHEN IN THE TUTOURAL
I HAVE TO KEEP REFERING TO THE APPENDIX TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THEY R TALKING ABOUT OR WHEN I GO TO THE APPENDIX AND THEN I HAVE TO GOTO THE APPENDIX AGAIN TO FIND OUT WHAT THE APPENDIX JUST TOLD ME

Well a good start would be to turn of ur caps lock!!!

And i would recommend reading the documentation a few times and the sticky threads at the top of this forum

goto the tuturials sticky thread, and search for the section on mapcoordsmaxs and mapcoordsmins - thats what you need if you crash when pressing L

Unfortunately the mods here have unsticky’d the newb tutorial threads.

Look for the thread “Map Basic Requirements”
