signs of life


(TheWeed) #1

well, it’s nice to find a place where level designers meet. thats actually got recent life in it, most other stuff i found if last post “2003” sorta stuff lol.

is anyone here a bit less creative and more better at the other stuff? i have really good creative bursts, but lack the staying power to get the job done, i have lots of maps where the lay out is all done, just needs the doors to work, ammo & health rack putting in etc.

any one up for a colab?

nice to hear someone is still mapping, I am sorry I cant help you out but I have a lot of maps myself that is not finnished and I do a lot of props as moddeling stuff to you mappers and run servers and thewolfteam site… So I am kind of buzzy :slight_smile:

but best place to learn those small things are really here:
http://www.pythononline.co.uk/et/tutorial.htm

there you have tutorial with prefabs of all you need + a decent explanation… saved me a 100 times allready :slight_smile:

Welcome to the forum TheWeed.
If you want to attract mappers to help you, you might want to post screenshots of what you have so far.
What I personally would find interesting would be an open community project.
Meaning you attach the source-file to the post (definitely keep a backup) and other mappers can work on it and upload their modified source themselves.
It probably would be better, if they wouldn’t upload the complete map, but only the parts they’ve changed, so you can import it and have it already in the perfect place (better control). Also a detailed changelog would be needed.

Most likely a thing like this would be doomed, but I think testing it would be neat. Anyways good luck with it! As for the doors etc. They aren’t difficult. Just follow the tutorial thunder posted you, or try this or that.

Regards

A similar project is somehow ongoing, by acQu:

I have myself few started projects and few more in mind, I’m finishing and polishing what is started at the moment (just have to finish some waypoints :3).

If you have any question, don’t hesitate :slight_smile:
