View source for Folderinfo.bns

'''<code>folderinfo.bns</code>''' is a script file.

You can find one inside the ''scripts/challenges'' and ''scripts/advanced_chambers'' folders in portal_content.gcf

It's a pretty useful file if you want to make/customize your ''own'' BonusMap package.


== Script sample ==
<pre>
"Package_Name"
{
	"image"		"Folder_Name/TextureName"
	"comment"	"This map pack is the best one"
	"lock"		"0"
}
</pre>

'''Package_Name''' : the name of your package, that's will be displayed on the bonus map selection menu with 'Challange' and 'Advanced'<br />
'''image''' : A path to a thumbnail thats represent your package. Path is ''materials/vgui/'''FolderName'''/'''TextureName''' '' Where '''TextureName''' is the name of the [[VMT|.VMT]] file. If you leave this value empty, a default folder picture will be used.<br />
'''comment''' : a comment about your map pack.<br />
'''lock''' : Should be '''0''' to unlock your mappack, if you set it to '''1''' nobody can play it until it is unlocked using [[point bonusmaps accessor]] or by script editing.<br />

== How to use ==
The best way is to make a new folder inside your ''portal/maps'' folder like : ''portal/maps/MyBonusMapPack''.<br />
Put your <code>folderinfo.bns</code> inside it with your [[Bonus Maps|bonus map script]] and/or [[Portal Challenge Script|challenge scripts]] files.<br />
You can put your map files (.bsp) in it if you want, because you can find them at a different location by using the [[Bonus Maps|bonus map script]] or [[Portal Challenge Script|challenge scripts]].<br />
