Looking For Helpers on new Original Project, I think...


(eXp) #1

Well I’ve gotten bored of those same-o same-o maps you seem to get everyday, I mean how many ports of mp_beach do we really need? So Im trying to organize a new string of maps based on actual WW2 events, spanning from farout plans of what could have been done and others trying to replicate missions that really happened… I have two problems… #1 I dont know where to start, Any help people? #2… Im not a mapper… I plan things out so other people dont have to do any thinkings lol… If you would be interested in helping in my lil’ secrect project (I dont wanna say it some1 WILL beat me to it lol) just email me at theexpclan@gmail.com | The plan is to have somewhere from 11-16 maps spanning from January 13th 1942 - Late April 1945… Thanks Its not that hard if u know what your doing please join me and we’ll have some fun recreating history on ET :clap: :smiley:

from 11-16 maps

Dude… u need a reality check. Do u have the faintest idea of how much work releasing one map is? (Ok i m talking about a mapped map, not a ripped one.)
And from my point of view the thinking about a map is the real fun part… I wouldn’t let someone else do that as a mapper. Maybe you should try mapping out yourself and build some small boxmaps, so you get an idea of the whole business…

from 11-16 maps

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

gl with that

also making maps from real life stuff is often a road to disaster, some ET stock maps were based on realy commando battles but ime pretty sure they were nothing like what we play today

plus finding that many mappers who ahve the same if not similar style of mapping a nd texturing ablility will be very hard, unless u want 11-16 completely different looking and textured maps, some with terrible gameplay, and others with lag problems. Some thing like this has probably been tried many times but it fails in the team part of the setup. I hope you are able to find the people to do it, b/c more realistic maps never hurt, but I wouldnt get my hopes up.

Lol thx for the rants guys. So you know I am tryingt it learn to make my own maps because no one wants a leader that doesnt know where he is going ;D just very long time for me to learn something new with all this server sh!t crammed in my head (can i say that?) Yea Ive made the basic setup for the first map but the complex part are the two boats and two UBoats (very critical parts). Might as well make the project open and try and get a website for it I’ll make a new post later with all the specifics on Jan 13th 1942… Thx again as this is my first atempt at mapping, and the cummunity involved in it…

if you’re new to mapping then don’t try to take on a large project like your suggesting, just learn the editor by doing small maps, trying out new things with every map…
