Title: Made a new map!
Post by: SnooD on December 16, 2011, 11:53:22 AM
Ok i made a new map but I am not really sure where to go from here. How do I get it to be a playable map does it need to go through like some sort of check by someone I don't know I am new to this haha.

It would be helpful if you could attach your beta map here, so people can have a look at it and give you feedback how to improve your map.

Have a look at this sticky topic: http://dplogin.com/forums/index.php?topic=5149.0

It's good, at least I have the brain power to make a map, unlike some people we know ^

I wouldn't say "very" good, but better than what error message boy has done.

I still haven't seen any download links to your completed SUPERIOR GLORIOUS MASTERRACE MAP...

Wait for feedback on your maps before you think it's perfect and start flaming over respected members of this community. Also, Rick has probably meant for DP2 history than you ever will (leaving open whether positive or negative). Try flaming blaa instead :)

 Flaming me would be too easy. I made 3 maps noone even ever heard of.
Title: Re: Made a new map!
Post by: Rockyar_96 on December 28, 2011, 05:35:06 AM
and why nobody heard of them?
Title: Re: Made a new map!
Post by: blaa on December 28, 2011, 05:53:32 AM
 Because nobody plays them!

If I were I wouldnt talk about your map and brain in one sentece. If you think your map is decent then you must think that spawninabox is masterpiece or idk. Srsly you havent done anything in your map what good mapper should do(I am not calling myself good mapper, I am just saying that i try to improve my skills fixing whatever someone suggests me). I really think you should look at chefs link http://dplogin.com/forums/index.php?topic=5149.0 . You should have done it before releasing and not after tho.
Some feedback then
Cons
-Different sides, they are not mirrored
-Textures are not aligned
-Your brush usage makes nosense at all, if you make such a map then i would expect it to look like realistic, maybe its just my opinion idk
-Add "angle X" to your player spawn entity (X=number in range from 0 to 360)
-Learn how to use lighting in your map
-Try to be realistic, climbable brick pillar ...ok no comment
-Learn whats the difference between Face and Brush Surface (why is the pillar climbable from both sides when you can get up only when climbing one side)
-Learn whats the difference between qbsp and final export (just learn about all export options)

Pros
-Spawn with carbine
-Hm......uh..you used brushes in your map

Sorry for negative post but if you release this and then flame Rick for being noob mapper, well what do you expect. But still my Cons stays and thats what every mapper will tell you.
BTW:Blaa map names?

Do you mean the player spawn entities here?
