RadGen (Radar Generator) is a tool for 
Counter-Strike 2. This tool can generate highly customisable overviews for maps using meshes, entities and/or materials, by assigning them to specific Selection Sets.
It can also be used in either a Material based workflow, or a Selection Set based workflow, supporting meshes or props in any setups.
Installation
- Download the latest version here: https://radargenerator.github.io/
Usage
Download and run RadGen, in the top left click on File -> New. Browse to the folder where your .vmap file is located, and select it. This will create a new RadGen project file (.radgen) next to your .vmap file. This will also copy the RadGen textures into the addon the map is located in.
You can use these two worlflows in order to add map meshes and props to your radar:
- Material based workflow
- Selection Set based workflow
Note:These workflows can be used interchangeably, and at the same time. There are no configuration changes needed to work in either way.Mesh entities including Buyzones, Bombsites and Rescue Zones, are drawn by default, however special materials for these are also included for special cases.
To generate the radar, click the 'Generate Radar' button on the bottom of the settings panel in RadGen.
Workflow 1 (Material based)
You may want to use separate meshes to your playable map itself.
Unless in a RadGen selection set, RadGen will only display mesh faces with a RadGen texture applied to them. These include Path, Cover, Overlap, Bombsite, Buyzone and RescueZone The Remove texture will disallow anything to display within its volume. The Ignore texture will be completely ignored, and is just a nice way to show mesh faces you don't want to draw. You can apply the textures to all faces on a mesh, but it may cause slight issues when using stroke around your meshes, so if you notice any slight issues with stroke then that is likely the cause. In this scenario, only apply the texture to the top face.
If you wish to create separate meshes using the RadGen materials for objectives, such as Buyzones, Bombsites and Rescue Zones, these meshes will take priority over the mesh entities.
