$:-\$ Before you start making threads about maps, and releasing them you should make a lot of maps first.
At least practice for a few months.

Barnyard? Reminds me of what Apocalypse is doing.

I have an idea: Barnyard pong.
Instead of a ball, you shoot a cow around, every time someone hits it, it goes "moo".
Can some pro-mapmaker tell me if its possible?

It isn't. Not the moo bit, at least. I don't think the model will work either.

EDIT: Nope, you can change the model of a pong ball. But the bounding doesn't change.

hm... if it is a "good"/"interesting" map, he should post it, but with link and screenshots. First maps aren't always rubbish

I like to think that too

My first map, Terminal, is STILL in production after months... it's not rushed, and it features custom models and textures... it's the reason I started the CTP.

Yes that one is quite nice remeber labrynth that almost got out and I'm not the type of person that just starts mapping and is really good at it the main thing that makes them not that good quite often is because they go for something a pro would have difficulties with or maps that the idea just doesn't fit the paintball style but a farm would be pretty nicely fit.

BTW I'm helping him so its a combined effort Tongue

So its still going to rock.

Oh, and we added screenshots and a download.

^^

Few things:
-you can get stuck in the back entrance to base. (i'll post screenie if you can't find how)
-should add another entrances for flag..probably you should make it possible to get to the roof from outside.
-those teleport doors piss me off

especially on that tower where you can be teleported out after climb the stairs.

Other than that seems like a fun map.

r_speeds are a nightmare, averaging 6,000 with 60 FPS.
Misaligned brushes
Can't get into tall white structure
Not a good choice for the barn wood
r_speeds, once again, are horrendous!

do not use rapidshare, just attach betas please.

Edit: I've attached the beta for anyone who doesn't want to mess around with the really shady filehosting place he uses.

Chef-Killer · « **Reply #12 on:** July 20, 2007, 12:22:31 PM »

I think it is normal that the r_speeds are so high in this beta1. There is no light and i would think that there is also no vis. Light your map, do final compile and the r_speeds should be lower.

Cobo · « **Reply #13 on:** July 20, 2007, 12:26:27 PM »

I dont think vising is going to help 6k wpoly too much $:-\$

Apocalypse · « **Reply #14 on:** July 20, 2007, 12:27:09 PM »

Chef knows he always has high r_speeds lol.
But then again Cobo might be right to I'd give it a try anyways though.

Chef-Killer · « **Reply #15 on:** July 20, 2007, 12:28:32 PM »

Of course it would work. VIS is for a good playability.

Cobo · « **Reply #16 on:** July 20, 2007, 12:31:24 PM »

I know VIS lowers rspeeds, but I dont think it will lower it to an acceptable level.

Apocalypse · « **Reply #17 on:** July 20, 2007, 12:35:37 PM »

Lol I was looking at the r_speeds and I forgot to remove bots so I look at the r_speeds and it was like 17000+ and I'm like holy cow that definitely isn't right then I remembered the bots lol.

Cobo · « **Reply #18 on:** July 20, 2007, 12:39:23 PM »

Woah! I dont think I've ever got bigger rspeeds than 8000 lol.

Chef-Killer · « **Reply #19 on:** July 20, 2007, 12:40:04 PM »

You have to look at the wpoly, the epoly's could be 20000 on each small maps, if there are many entities or players.
