can i see a picture of your sexy sky scraper?

One THing that helps Curse is to first make an isometric wall in X-tra or something, then cut and paste from that wall in starforge, that way you have a clearer idea of what pattern the squares are placed in.

ill try that ^_^, cause i wana learn how to do the building now so when i get to "advanced" level i can start an rpg or something

Ha-Curse: I will be pleased... but i don't know how to do... don't tell Print screen or insert... not working

You know bolt i know this maybe make map bit larger. When outside plays outside kinda music when inside plays creepy inside music along with rain waves if building where you can hear rain. Is any like kinda boss fights? Good old heavy rock tune ^_^ be nice.

Yes i know, I did that intentually, I liked it better than selecting a tile that was compleatly made up of the building side. Cause then it looks cross hatched and crap. Since the asphalt is pretty much the same color as the building most people don't notice. Heck your the first person to mention it in like 6 or 7 pages of replys.'

Moogle . . . I don't know, i have been working 40 hours a week, at my job, and havn't had much time to work on my map. Its all in my head, except a very limited amount of triggers and most of the terrain.

I noticed it before, but only cause I looked closely to see what the tiles you used were and I know all the building wall tiles ( ) from foolin around. You can use the red wall grate to make quite a decent looking door.

I'm sure you know but the edge of the police station got overlapped by the building next to it.. maybe you should use a tile for the top of the police instead of the bottom of the building next to it.

here its my first sky scraper tell me what you think of its uber crappyness : )

good job with da skycraper ^__^ try making a toilet now.

lmao a toilet id need to use my bmp2scm program for that

btw as any one seen yoshi latly?

Hahaha! It's not a toilet?

Bah.. Sessase.. that was the one u showed me.

Hey Ha-Curse.. this is probably a bit off the topic.. but i really liked you trailer thingie.. It's pretty freaky just dunno why everyone sets the standard so high.
The beginning and end is kind of screwed tho.

thnx yo ^_^ well 1 thing people set standards so high is because of tuxedoes awesome trailer its pretty hard to top that

and the ending did not go as planned only 1 hydra should create =/
and the beggning i dunno what happend to it =)

but at least some one thinks its kewl ^_^

and Sess how is that a toilet? looks like 2 buildings ^_^

Yoshi is on vaction (again). He should be back in a few days.

Oh yeah how did we start talking about Tux's map in the thread about my map.

Maybe people trying compare you two again -_-" Sigh. How much have you done on map bolt on uh progress scale out of 100%?

About -5%
105% to go. lol let me get out my calculator and check.

Tisk Tisk Tisk need to work work work lol. Good point bolt they shouldnt bring up Tux in the Offical Thread for your map. Sounds good though. Make it really scary and go way out dont worry bout map size jsut as long as its scary unless u want it to be bnet then u can just make a lite version

(U)Bolt_head: Oh yeah how did we start talking about Tux's map in the thread about my map.




Hey, you care? It's making some publicity for you!
Take AAALLLLLL your time! More work on, better on the way!

Well I didn't exactly create this thread to advertise. Bringer, there will be not "lite" version. Anyone who ask for one can bite me, lol.

I find maps are much more impressive when there not targeted at a retarded audience.

I wouldn't worry too much about terrain trickery, unless you need it.
Doing special terrain when it is uneccessary if very newbish in my opinion, kind of like when people do all those effects on the zergling in bounds just to show off their triggers. If you need it to convey something, then by all means do it, but don't just throw it in for no reason.

Well said, That should be like "the silver rule" of mapmaking.

The golden rule is taken already

Bronze Rule of Starcraft Map Making, if something isn't broken, don't fix it!
Or something like that...

So Bolt, what do you think is going to set this map above your previous work, or is it?

Do you feel that you can continue on this over time and not give up? (Serious problem for all map makers!)

Well, all my previous work sucks. Except my bound, and bounds suck by default. So all I got to do is make it good and it will be above my previous work.

And to not give up over time, well thats why i made this thread actually. Hoping that it will keep me modivated. I'll proboly quit at 95%

I'll proboly need some help nameing people later cause my names are always lame like fred and bob.

I'll help if you want on the names, or everyone can, its up to you. What you've got to do is think of the period and style of names you want, and then find out common names of that time, and maybe if your lucky, some nicknames.

Just think what time period of earth this relates to, and if the future, work with present day, and then just add nicknames.

Yay! I suck at naming people too.
