You shouldnt make a mod unless you are changing more than just maps. Also Rope it isnt just source code.

You can't access Portals Source Code.

dvlstx, make it a map pack. Unless it has tons and tons of models, materials, and what not. .

(Don't add stuff so you can make it mod now, lol)

yes, but you can release a mappack which is the same as a mod, except the mod has different source code instead of just maps and models and sounds etc

Mod - If you need to change things that can't be done via custom content (anything more in folders other than models, textures and maps).

Id say go with a map pack, because making a mod for that would add on useless files and would make the file larger for no reason.

Agreed.
Also, I like how a thread can be started on one thing here and end up on something different...

MAGIC!!

Well, a mod should replace the name of the thread to "Random Topics" Its these threads that can get a forum active again. (Trust me I know a few forums that did this.)

Maybe I was wrong. Where the hell is everyone lately? This is the second time I've logged on after a day or so, and no new posts.

I recently got a new GPU, so I ought to fire up Hammer some time and continue on my ASLTA-based maps.

It's amazing what a new GPU can do for your graphics, I can actually play Fallout 3 with the heads on now!

Hey.... that's a good contest idea: make a joke map.
