I'm in a long term map revision, two months in and it needs sharpening up. I know what i need to do. It's not a problem just boring. I need a week of diversion. What i propose is that four map makers pull together as a team. We decide on an intial statement of intent between us. Type of map, terrain,story,players etc. We each have a week to work on the map. But it's the same map. The first mapper starts the map and emails it the second. When his week is up and so on till the last mapper has his go. In one month we have a map worth playing (hopefully) It's an experiment and a bit of fun. We'll post it filefront as a collabiration. Email me at [email]TonyPaget@hotmail.co.uk[/email] if you're interested.
yo that is a great idea i thought of that b4 but didnt kno how pwople would approach it so im in im a pretty good mapper im really good at the basic idea and uniqueness in maps
actually i think i was the only person to think of the idea to make a relic give you control of a titan weapon with help from scar coders ...cough Incarnate ....cough
but yeah ive made some decent maps like Split Ties on dpwfiles.com for wa and hell storms on there too (the one with) the titan weapon
wont work. all mappers like different styles. some may add something one doesnt like or one may make something too complex for someone else
yes but i can work me and my friend did it I did 1 side he did the other
i am currently testing a map i just finished in 3 days n will post it on dowfiles.com soon, n i got to tell ya, it's very detailed n a lot of dead IG's stuck on trees. point is, everyone has a taste in what map they want. If u can convince some mappers to like the same kind of map u want to make, then ur lucky, not saying it's not possible, im saying u can try n hope u make a good map.
I disagree, I think that if you have a lot of mappers with different styles of mapping, you will get the best of all of them.
yeah but wot if one wanted loads of buildings and one didnt and one liked ruins and one prefferred plains with decals. what then?
well then that is where the part where one of us said "i did one half he did the other" u could make a city with two entrances each going two a third of the map like one third city one third jungle and one third desert if u get my drift. in my opinion those are the best kinds where one is used to cover and restricted areas in a city once he goes out theres a bit of a challenge then plz excuse me if i seemed to ramble i do that a lot

Read ponytaj's post again. We agree on how the map is going to look when finished.
