Modifying Map - How Difficult, Unlock roofs and add ladder Options

[Lanm]

I want to modify some maps to open the rooftops on them - which are partialy unreachable because of the hidden walls. I also want to add some ladders. I only have the client/server files for these maps and no sources.

How difficult would it be? I am completely new to mapping but otherwise quite expirienced.

Modifying maps without access to the original source files can be tricky. Since you only have the client/server files, it might involve decompiling the map first. Decompiling often leads to a loss of detail, but it’s possible to make simple changes like adding ladders or removing hidden walls afterward. If you're experienced in general, the process can be learned, but expect a learning curve with mapping tools.
