How do you make it so that a certain gamemode has maps under it? Like CS tab has only includes CS maps.
And where do you save it to?
Inside a gamemode’s info.txt, you can put this:
( taken from melonracer )
"mappattern"
{
"1" "^mr_"
}
Which would grab all maps that contain mr_ in their name and put them in the category belonging to the gamemode name defined in the name field.
What about for base menus like Counter strike?
Defined in lua/menu/getmaps.lua:

Garry hard-coded some of them.
