<div class="IPBDescription">My first attempt at NS mapping</div> This is my sorry attempt at making an NS map. I have only done this for TFC where detail is not as important. All I have so far is a ready room. Take a look at these pics and give my your opinions. Do I have what it takes to map for NS? Im calling it ns_spacedoc.

[EDIT]It doesn't look like your using texture lighting...you should do.
I think it's big enough to fit 32 info_player_starts in?

Yeah, I know it's a bit square-ish but it's just a ready room. Do I really need to worry about high detail there?

Sorry, I don't use msn and im still not 100% sure what im getting myself into here so I would not be able to offer you much help anyway.

Thanks. I have been looking over the forums here for some time trying to get some ideas of my own and this is what I started out with. Took me about 3 hours to make. BTW, about 90% of that room is lit by texture lighting but maybe I am missunderstanding what you said.
I'd say you do, especially if you have made an entire map before. Just stick with it, and you could make a great map.
Thanks. Those are some good tips an I will keep that in mind. You want infestation? Yeah, I can do that.

Thanks. I have completed a few maps. One that I am proud to say I made (for TFC mind you) is <a href='http://maps.blueigloo.org/maps/S/sa-empjump.zip' target='_blank'>sa-empjump</a>.
I gotta congratulate you for finishing an NS map, as alot
of people give up half-way (myself included).
On a personal note, I hate you for having 99.9 fps <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
Ahh, thanks but this is no where near finished. In fact, I just started. Note, it's just the readyroom. I have only done "TFC" maps before this. And don't hate me for my 99.9 fps. You would have frame rates like this too if you had a slightly older system like mine.
