Degor - Padawan  |
Hello everyone! I've just learned how to make maps and now I want to practise my new mapping skills a bit. But due to a lack of inspiration I'm stuck. So I ask you: Do you got any ideas for a good map? What should be in it? How should it look? What maptype should it be?

I was already thinking about that and I've got some prototypes already. I'll start working on the map today. _______________ May the force be with you. And may the academy stand forever! |

I got good idea.
Go to this website, http://jediknight3.filefront.com/file/Jedi_Temple_Lobby;96850 and look screenshots. Make like that map, but more rooms like that, like in videos. This comment was edited by Rouc Ro'Dor on Jan 04 2009 03:50pm. |

Very true. Aslong as you draw the line. At constructive, and not just outright criticism.

Constructive criticism is ever present in the world of Game Development if not more so in the realm of Level Design. It helps us develop more as designers therefore making our own creations ever more fun. |

Quote: A few things.
- Too many wide open spaces. These should be used sparingly if ever. - (To iterate on above) Not enough Detail. If wide open spaces HAVE to be used, they need a ton of detail to make it look like some thing that isn't a hollowed out box in space. - No lighting Lighting plays a key part in all maps new and old, with out it there is no contrast making the level bland and repetitive. We're not playing Doom 1! Now, get that hallway up on there! Zeke cracks the whip!!! _______________ <MaherSenatu> guh... you are just...

I'm working on a map with 2 forts. The gametypes will be ffa tffa and ctf. Both forts have an armory, garage and sniper tower. Both forts act as a base and you don't have to leave your fort to shoot enemy players. _______________ May the force be with you. And may the academy stand forever! |

Some good CTF and TFFA type maps, like in SW battlefront, with lots of sniper spots and areas where you have to storm through the middle of the enemy's base, like the docks from the first battlefront, if you played it, not those identical maps but with a similar fell to them. they will need to be big though.
just another suggestion _______________ Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion, I gain strength. Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken. The Force shall free me. |
