Soldat n00b makes new MAP. Sifn't NOT PWN.
« on: June 10, 2007, 10:02:04 am »


Sorry if this stretches the page haha :P

I love the way Soldat plays but most the levels are FUGLY so i'm makin my own. ( These are just snippets and completely uncompiled... just sitting in photoshop still)

Once I work out the mapping program (Which I aint even seen yet :P ) I will compile it and make it available for download.

Hope people like it ;)

Unfortunately, from photoshop -> polyworks is going to take you lotsa hours. Good luck with it! :D

And wrong forum, btw.

Yeah I already realise. But I want something good that everyone can enjoy looking at aswell as playing... it's already got some awesome Conflict points and is a sweet DM map. Might even make a CTF Conversation once i'm done... and WRONG FORUM? woops :P

Regardless it's just general Chit chat ;)

Thanks mate :P

Actually? NOW i'm probably in the wrong forum but what u mean by poly works? (I'm a self confessed noob to anything game design apart from Unreal tournament Maps :P )

Polyworks is the program that most people use for making soldat maps. It has the most features, anyway. Do a search on these forums for it if you want it.

One thing I'd be worried about is that if the maps are really complicated and 'pretty' (as some of the trenchwar maps are) a lot of people are going to lag up on them. It's just been my personal experience.

Gay Tractor haha

Alright thanks for the Tip. Regardless I'm still going to make it sweet looking and if it runs like crap ill just use it as a background for my desktop... Was primarily making it as a 1v1 Map for me and my best mate to shoot the crap out of each other in but I thought I'd share it...

Regardless, I'm not a huge fan of a Massively full server... I like 1v1 or 2v2 kinda stuff :P more TACTICAL rather than just aim n click n run hehe

 ;D

I like your scenery style PHReaKeR, it fits in well with the area around it.

It's nice to see some fresh ideas in the mapping community, good to have you on board.

I love the graphics. I think it won't be much of a problem dealing with photoshop since you want to make scenery only maps, right? So no polygons wold be visible, just your graphics... right?

anyway added to my msn list. You are worthy of talking to me mate :P

Gotta make a damn crane too lol

Date Posted: June 10, 2007, 11:38:44 PM
I've pretty much got 10000000 ideas for this map... but does anyone have an ideas? or comments on what they might find fun to have in this map... (No stupid crap please :P - This map is a Semi-Serious attempt at making something decent :P )

Ideas Already (Crane, Ship, Bay, Fences, Junk Pile, Dirt Pile near Tractor, lamps, Sewer pipe to Bay, Rock Formation's in Bay) that's all I can think of at the moment cuz im brain dead cutting card on the floor...  Maybe some idea's of what to put in the sky? (No frozen planes please :P) I was thinking maybe Uber solid Clouds LOL (Might ruin the map... could be interesting lol)

I think you should make a small hole or trench that you could shoot out of while standing but be safe while sitting or laying :P

I've hollowed out some more crates with a light effect on them on the sides if you can see.. Trench wont be too far away from this area... so many ideas.. I go to bed and think about everything.. included ideas for this map. Only reason I go to bed is so im not tired in the morning.. otherwise i'd stay up constantly :P Sleep = boring.
