making missions using final alert 2

[Rifletank 0]

lately ive been pretty into the idea of making a WW2 mission pack for ra2 (maybe YR) but I have no idea of using scripts; much less making them. I was thinking of using final alert 2 as the program. is this a good choice for my very basic skills? is there anything better and easier?

Thats about the best editor for YR. You're probably have to get a few XCC utilities and stuff.

 

There are a bunch of tuts at cncgames.com

yeah, XCC is essential for any serious mapmaker. you can get a whole bunch of junk at my website.

Uh, guys, XCC has NOTHING to do with making a map. You need Final Alert 2, a good idea of what you want, tutorials and lots of free time.

yeah it does, in FA2 you can use that to do loads of stuff. Extract plenty of ini files and vxl files.

Now we're talking modding, not mapping. He wants to make a WW2 mission pack, not a mod.

 

There should be some built-in tutorials in FA2. Should tell you how to use triggers. YR Argentina also has some mission stuff in their tutorials section.
