-
Ouch! Lots of brush errors. And i think you may need to practice a bit before releasing map. And please light your map. http://dplogin.com/forums/index.php?topic=960.0 This should help you. Map is a bit big i think.
-
lol idk i tryed it when i exported i thoughtit was ok and pretty fun XD
-
1. There already is a map named shock 2
2. Rename the file, make it shorter. Usually you don't put your name in the filename. For example that name would be shock2_b1
3. As many people will tell you, don't make remakes of maps. Make original maps.
4. You should practice using bsp before making real maps. You will make many maps and throw them away. I've made more than 10 maps which are now deleted.
5. NEVER post unlit maps. You always have to light it and compile it before posting it on forums.
6. Always put some screenshots when you post a map on the forums.
7. Did you even make flag/base ents?
Well, I don't want to be too negative: atleast I didn't find any leaks =)
Keep practicing mapping, read the stickies if you have any problems, they help alot.
EDIT: Dang, they were faster.
-
also this is beta 1 i still have 2 improve the map alot XD
-
My meaning. Stop mapping "your" shock2.
Try to create a own map.
-
well i made a flag i think XD i still have 2 add base but ill go right now and light the map and maybe mor
-
LoL i wanna do this b4 i put months in to a map so i know that i will b able 2 get it out when im finished so i am gonna do this map im shure when its done alot of ppl will like it
-
Well, I'm just telling you, this map won't be put in rotation in public servers most likely. It's really hard to make a map, even harder when it's your first map. And usually no one likes remakes. If I were you, I would practice mapping for a while and then I would create my OWN, original map.
EDIT: Avoid doubleposting, you can always edit your last post if you forgot to say something. Click "modify" for editing your post.
Also, you should use spell check.
-
LoL well i just wanna see if there is no more errors or something so i can no that i will be able 2 get it 2 ublic server when i do takes months 2 build my OWN map
-
here is the version that has lights lol
-
Aaargh, I'm going crazy, DO NOT DOUBLEPOST
And please, do us a favor and use Spell Check. Before you post something, click Spell Check.
You made the lights that fast? Did you also compile it?
-
the lit version
-
yes i did
-
crap i did mess up on the lights
-
1. Edit your darn posts.
2. Learn to map before you release a map.
-
Aah, triple post. Robbie, think a little bit before posting. If you have many things to say just write them in 1 post. If you posted something and then remember you forgot to say something, simply click the "modify" button. You can find "modify" in the right, high corner of your post.
And before you put a map here, TEST TEST TEST. You have to be sure you dont find any errors in the map before putting it here
EDIT: y00tz was faster =(
-
i can map im just testing see if there is anymore freakin errors till i get 2 the beta server ok i just wanna c this on the beta server once and ill b happy then grow a cocoon around my computer and build a map 4 months
-
The Map comes never on Arctic Server
-
Man, don't repeat the stuff others have said atleast 3 times already =)
And also, it's his first map, of course it isn't too good.
-
Robbie , the "Modify" button is your friend. Use it to modify your posts , do not double post.

Read the first page and the first reply. I think we already know that.
-
hey. Tell you what if you remake maps like I did, all you will get is negative feedback so don't do it.
-
There's something called a "good" remake.
-
For example pbcup_renoir and pbcup_pforest :P

It's also very rare for a remake to come out good.
-

NO, not this two maps...
-
They're way better than the original ones. Overplayed? Yes. Still good? Yes.
-
NO, not this two maps...
I totally disagree with you there :P. They are way better than the originals.
-
Its not the fact that it is or isnt a remake that is the problem - the root is that people who generally start making remake maps are doing so to answer their lack of originality. DT remade the pbcup_X series with clear vision and skill, which is why they are so good. He probably didn't do it because he 'couldn't think of what to make a map of'.

P.S. I'm lucky with Grave 2, it's physically impossible to make a map worse than grave.bsp. I bet no-one ever noticed the minute cross on the top of the 'spire'!
-
I don't really like that map so I don't think i remember seeing it.

Really? I hate all the pbcup maps (ok, not pbcup_dsm1q :P). I dont know why. Maybe because they are totaly overplayed or they have more jumps than a jumpmap or...
-
DT's remakes show a lot of evidence of careful planning for proper clan scene matching and competition play. They usually have a good variety of options for play-styles depending on the kind of clan you belong to and the jumps foster improvements in your technical ability.
The most overplayed maps are the junk you constantly see on pubs like airtime, blitz, shazam33, razzle, etc... Which are simply popular because they offer extremely simple and thoughtlessly quick gameplay. Thats fine for speed servers and whatnot, but I think it drives a lot of serious players away from pub play because its pretty boring after a while. I'm not a fan of er33t or 20id or whatever they are called now, but I can't fault their taste in maps or their knowledge of what comprises tactical understanding of maps like castle1, which are perfectly balanced for in-depth play.
This isn't really the place to be discussing what makes a good or bad map though i guess, so I'll just say on-topic that a map like shock should not be remade. It does it's job as it is: its quick, dirty, great PGP, seems to be quite popular. There's probably nothing else you can add.
