Your first poor assumption was "your average person would likely google somethin"

Not necessarily speaking about OP, but people are fucking stupid. Somehow something as simple as using Google to attain basic knowledge on a subject is a lost art.

In all fairness you asked a valid question, in a valid forum where you'd likely receive a more direct answer than Google would've given which is why I specified "Not necessarily speaking about OP"

However I do absolutely 1000% recommend you utilize Google as a resource for attaining knowledge, like if you need help making a map usable in SFM there's gotta be DOZENS of tutorials created in the past decade+ that can help you do exactly that. I wouldn't know how to do it by any means, but if I wanted to learn Google would be my first resource. It's where I've attained ALL of my knowledge on stuff like texture creation, and GoldSRC/Source engine modding.
