MOHAATools folder has a basic tutorial. Look for "Getting Started Tutorial.htm" in the docs folder.

After that, you can try the Basic Room video tutorial at this website. http://www.carbongraphx.com/mohaa/vidtuts.html

WHen i finish a brush(the very basics of it, the shape mostly) and i try to create another one i cannot do it unless i right click on the brush and choose make structural, then i can start a new one but then i am never able to go back and modify it. when i am finished with the basic shape of a brush and i want to create the next one what do i do so that i can?

After you make your first brush, deselect it by hitting esc. Then you can make next brush. Or, while the first brush is still selected, "highlighted", you can clone it by hitting the space bar. To go back and modify, click on or shift left click on it ( don't remember ), to highlight it and then make your changes.

how do you texture ONLY one side of a brush?(also what r all of the controls for the 3d view in the corner of the screen. i use the arrow keys but i dont kwno how to look up or even raise the veiw so that i can see what my building looks like on the second story.

shift-RMB the side in the 3d view.

d and a on your keyboard are up and down. Hold right mouse button and slide mouse around will move you around your project. Also, up top in the right hand corner where the "eye" is....click it so it has the #2 showing.

RMB? if that stands for right mouse button it does not work. WHen i use the left mouse button it does work but it selects the entire brush.
ALso when i finish my map what do i do so that i can play it.

Make sure the eye icon at the top right has a 2 on it by clicking the icon untill it does . Then in the 3d view hold down the right mouse button to move forward and back and to rotate left and right . Hold down the control key and use the right mouse button to move up and down . Hold down the shift and control key to rotate the view up and down . Use the end key to center your view . Select one side of a brush by holding down the shift and control keys and useing the left mouse button or if the whole brush is selected holding down the shift and control keys will deselect one side or reselect it .

Im still having trouble selecting a single side of a a brush, How do you do it? YOu push select and left mouse button? that seems to select the entire brush.

IM really sorry about all the questions. I just want to learn how to map and im haveing trouble with the learning process.

CTRL/SHIFT LMB

Hold down CTRL and with it held down press SHIFT and while both are still pressed then select a face with the LMB.
