|
Me and bob have been working on designing a map for a few days and i want you guys to tell me what you like and dont like about some of your favorite maps. our design depends on this cause me and bob are very new to map design. Also the fact that we are idiots doesnt help either,lol.
so post what you like and dont like and we will try and do our best. Also me and bob want to make a ville server map that only the ville servers will run. It will have special graphics and such concerning the ville. In order to make the best map possible for Villuns i would like all of your input.
Thanks
Jack. _________________

alwright i will stop laughing now.
I like flagrun. so something like that would be great. 2fort i hate and i'm beginning to et tired of warpath. (after playing that map a trillion times)
a dark enviroment would be cool with only a few torches. Maybe smiperdeks or something that are dark so that nobody can see if there are people up there. _________________ PROUD TO BE A MEMBER OF =US-V= & VILLE $UPPORTER |

If you need help, you can ask me. I'm familiar with WC 1.3 (for 4 months) and some of Hammer. So I will try to answer any questions you might have.
Now as for the map, my thought would be that there should be a stationary "tank" weapon in the middle of the two fortresses. So, either team can use it. The design of it should be same as the fortresses.
Thx for reading this. _________________

My favorite parts about maps are the purpose (cpt, hunted, deathmatch, etc) and having cool places. Make sure you put in a lot of hidden or tricky to get to places for sniping and such, those are fun |

Are you aware that hammer is only version 3.3 of worldcraft renamed?
BTW, it's much better than 1.3, and I didn't have any problems transitioning. It's more user-friendly too. you guys might want to start out with it.
BTW, by "user-friendly" I mean incredibly difficult to use if you don't know what you're doing but easier than 1.3. Check www.valve-erc.com and take advantage of the tutorials there |
