hi heres my first shaded pw map plz comment it

[Laser Guy]

Take grid off, add more scenery, make bg 2 colors not one, add more spawns (medkits, nades, clusters, etc...).

PS Take time! Test it, correct it, and such...

[^$$^Drag]

will do brb

Do us a favor... don't save your screenshots in BMP/PNG format(In paint, anyway), they are a waste of my bandwidth (and others).
Map is ok, but not my style. Different background colours are needed, coz that colour hurts the eyes.
Your getting better, keep reading those tutorials

[Laser Guy]

Bony... screens are supposed to be in BMP/PNG... jpeg just sucks and no other format gives good quality.

[^$$^Drag]

laser guy can i just insert the other image and map download here?

[Laser Guy]

Yes, actually, you should always do so! At the top of the page u should have a "modify" button, use it to change the post.

[^$$^Drag]

was that better??

[Laser Guy]

Yup, better. Just put some 'sandbag' scenery where the colliders are so it looks as if bags block the bullets.

[Cookiegangsta]

Yes better but relax, do you do a map per day?

[^$$^Drag]

there are sandbags behind colliders

[Cookiegangsta]

Just a question.... is there a border around the thing?

[^$$^Drag]

no its made so u can fall:D makes it a little harder

[Cookiegangsta]

<_<

lol thats bad. The shading is good and keep practicing.

[Laser Guy]

@Drag: What he's talking bout is an invisible and deadly border cuz when you fall out you just respawn with full health.

I suggest you read those:

ohh good idea ill think about it:D ill make it in my next generation of dm/tm maps thanks for the tip

Off topic: Jpeg are as good quality as png/bmp if you can convert it.
On topic: The shading is really simple, you should have picked another light point than the top.
Also, polygons shouldn't make lame structures and float arround(make a land or a cave, not few platforms floating arround), change the scenery colour, put some grass/trees/bushes or w/e on the top of polys, and don't make fx_ sceneries the main ones.
