FAQ section

Can we try and clean up the FAQ section please? - Sbrown 22:07, 28 Nov 2008 (PST)

The VDC is a WiKi, you don't really need to ask for permission to clean-up or add content to a page unless it's locked, although it can be helpful to ask for comments before making huge changes to an article that involves removing valid content or changing the layout. --brandished 21:52, 29 Nov 2008 (PST)
I know that. I don't understand the rest of the FAQ, and i was hoping the editor could impove it. --Sbrown 11:54, 30 Nov 2008 (PST)

New titles?

This article isn't public yet (there isn't any other articles linking to it) and was put on the backburner by the creator until after Valve released the official SDK. Valve is (supposedly) working on their own mapping tutorials for Left 4 to be released along with the SDK, so the original author might not even start working on this again if Valve releases something substantial. What was the specific reason for changing the titles from what was there before? --brandished 21:52, 29 Nov 2008 (PST)

SDK?

Figured I'd put this somewhere... Someone supposedly found a way to get Hammer to work with Left 4 Dead by manually adjusting all settings. Anyone wanna give it a whirl and post back? [1] --CorporalAris GMT -6 4:23 Nov 30th

I personally would not recommend doing this. A because the new fgd will be different, and you will most likely have to redo your entities, and B valve said they will be releasing the sdk shortly. This will be integrated in, no pissing around. --Sbrown 11:58, 30 Nov 2008 (PST)
Yeah, I suppose. I just figured some people who couldn't wait would wanna see it. --CorporalAris GMT -6 15:08 Nov 30th
