CTF-Desert_Assault

It's my first map and it's pretty sweet. I will eventually put some shaders in it...
Because am writting this message on a mac at my school, and I made the map on a PC (it's logical) I can't put images.

Hope you enjoy!:D

By the way, the big mountain of sand in the middle is to prevent sniper cheating kills....And you start ....IN THE AIR WITH A PARACHUTE! YEY! ......it makes it more realistic...

But try it, you wont be decipointed.


ps: I don't really know how to make shadows. so theire aren't any for now.

For the download, go see the reply of Blacksheepboy .
He compiled it for me.

Overview would be nice as not all forum members have time for playing maps. (I don't have time for it, visiting forums from time to time just to see what's going on.)

[smiluu]

Yeah, reading the forum rules is pretty common and appreciated thing.
I'll maybe dare to download it if I see a picture of it.

[Blacksheepboy]

That's great. It isn't compiled correctly... Well, no harm done. I'll just compile it for you. If someone else would be kind enough to explain how to compile a map..?

[poodleinacan]

Thanks for the compiling.
Well on the map I will put som crates , put some objects with less opaciti.....

[poodleinacan]

Ive made some more things...not much...

Heres some images from closer views of my first map.

[poodleinacan]

Well there's one MAJOR problem...... the CPU ain't attacking...especially from our team...I mwould a hint to repair that please.

[zakath]

haven't looked on the map but my guess is that you haven't waypointed it?

[poodleinacan]

yea...for that I need a 1 minute tutorial.

[DarkCrusade]

Would suggest to shade the map some bit. What kind of mapmaker are you using currently? If it isnt Polyworks, try to get it on soldat.pl

You can get guides how to waypoint a map in the bot section of the forum, there are good guides leading you into it

[poodleinacan]

thanks. am using polyworks.
I will try to find tutorials for what I need and for some things that will make me better.

The polygons at the bottom of the map don't need to extend that low; just out of player vision is enough, as large polygons might lag unnecessarily.

The map is very flat. Spawning from the top is a really interesting idea (might I suggest even scattering both team's spawn zones equally throughout the air to make it even more hectic? ), but the map lacks color to support the gameplay; the sky seems a bit bright itself, and even a landscape like that could have interesting shading instead of flat white all the way for its polygons. You could, for example, turn the sand green around where the tree is (but a swamp tree? Why not a cactus?). The clouds themselves could have differing opacity and slight variation in color. Aesthetics are important to always work on in a map, and this has potential for much more.

Thanks for the tip.
I put som shading on my map yesturday, but im gona put som more.
Well for my first map, it's great! The tree in the middle, well am gona change it, and put some more cactus........But my big problem rests on the danm waypoints.
I should need a tutorial on how to use them.......other then the tuto. on the link in a other guy's post...

Well for now my update of my map that.....on vista so cant use poly for now...

[poodleinacan]

well now, I retryed my map, and it looks like the bots are ok.....
Now I just have to finish the shaders and stuffs.
