    No, it aint that bad making caves, just a few streaks of paint:B):. It took about 3-4 hours in total to make the map. Fifty-Fifty on drawing map and learning/testing, since it is my first map.

    I rather enjoy the process ::):, but it took days before anybody noticed it and nobody have download it yet. It makes it seem not very worthwhile.

    It's just that many server owners are too lazy/don't want to make custom map cycles. It's a shame, since many maps here are really good.

    Well, 3-4 hours is quite a lot, also, your first map seems better then mine, could you give me some tips?

    Done :) Enjoy.
    Also its a good idea to know roughly what kind of map your making. I knew i would have a mountain that looked like a bow as well as a mounted bow on top of it, and went ahead and did it. A trick i used for shape was making a transparent layer on top, like this:[​IMG]

    Photoshop cs5, but reckon gimp will work aswell. Having a grid really helps.

    BTW. 1 download ! Whoa! :D

    I thought it would look/play bad, but now that I see it in-game, it has great potential!
