+Orxonox needs a new stable engine with good documentation and a healthy community. Things we need to do before the next Thinktank:
 
  * Get the engine work on Unix and Windows
- * Write test code (tutorial) to load a .bsp level from Orxonox
+ * Write a test app which loads a .bsp level from Orxonox
  * Collect howto documents on getting started with the engine
- * ...
+ * List advantages and disadvantages of every engine

 === Load a BSP level ===
+There's an outdated [http://community.crystalspace3d.org/tiki-print_article.php?articleId=15 tutorial] that uses the map2cs converter to get a CS level from a bsp map. This map can be loaded directly with the walktest tool. But they dropped the support for map2cs (it was buggy I think). Now they force the users to use blender for all CS tasks.
+
+
+[http://www-poleia.lip6.fr/~degris/converter/ Counter-Strike to Crystal Space 3D converter] is another tool to convert bsp maps (in python). I tried to install it, but I always get python errors. It seems outdated too. Anyone motivated to do some python debugging?
+
+Converter dependecies (maybe incomplete):
+{{{
+# aptitude install imagemagick python-imaging python-elementtree
+}}}
+
+Till now, I couldn't find a direct way to import bsp levels or a working level converter. Maybe we should start flaming in their forum...
