Storm - New map (WIP)

Heya all , today i will introduce you my first map , after searching new maps in savage servers i decided to do a map of myself , i discovered the editor .... that was hard , really hard , but after few hours i had a good result and i made some pics for you .

The map isn't finished , she's 50% Ok .

I need somebody who know the editor to do some things thanks .

The map is named Storm because of the sh.. the bad weather .








I only used generic objects to do this , because of lot of people play in SFE .

Hope you enjoyed !
cheers

Those are some very nice screenshots, and it looks like a bunch of standard scenes you would expect on Savage maps. Do you have any overhead maps that can give a bigger view of what the map looks like? That could help with better feedback. =)

I'm not sure if anyone here in TH has experience with the map editor. Hunt3r, STRESS, and a few others might be able to offer tactical feedback from a commander's perspective, but actual map editor help you'll probably have to look to the Newerth Community forums.

Thank you for sharing your work, I hope you can get the help your looking for!

Thanks a lot TNaismith , here is the map nearly finished :



As you can see the map is very little , it's a fast map , but fortunately the beasts will not always win , here is 3 ways to go to ther ennemy base , first , at the middle of the map , a big plain with the towers and trees a spawn flag will be in the top of the tower .

the two other ways contains redstone mines (and some buildings) .

And here are the things must be worked again :

-There is two strongholds , i don't know how to replace one stronghold by a lair .
-I can't make the spawn flag at the top of the tower , the spawn flag stay at the floor ...
-How to do the minimap for the ingame ?

Nice map
U should make another 1 after that but a big 1
not like the usualls but still a good 1 for real pub or CWs

Personally, I think it's a good map. But it has the chances of a snowball in Hell to be played on pubs.

Yeah i know that , this is not a problem , i have thinked of a server ... does the TH have an own server ? if not why ? They should have one i think here is some good mappers on this forum .

Do you have a height map for this map? I could try to make a pro overhead image for you.

It's 64x64 size , thanks a lot DeoX .

Nice map.
I have done a map once

I meant a black and white image which indicates every hill on the map.

Thanks a lot but ... i don't recognize the map

cant wait to play it. puaky, Nero made his own map if u have any questions.

That was just an example what height map is. d'oh

Can we post here our maps?!? Hehe the forum is going to get full of map topics.. lol

xD Well If we want to have a Map section, that definitely is possible. I'm not sure how many of you would use it though. If a lot people will use it then we can definitely set another sub-forum for it. (This particular forum section is for posting screenshots of savage, like actual gameplay. Map-making seems to deserve it's own category. It is up to you guys though. Let me know what works.)

Pauke, let me try to help you understand what DeoX is saying. He is asking you for a specific file/image called a 'Heightmap'. I believe the definition of that is "a black and white image which indicates every hill on the map." as DeoX said earlier. If you can give him that info, then he can help you make a 'professional' quality overhead image to go with your map.

It will be the image that people see when they go to look at lists of maps like here.

And no, TH does not have it's own server at the moment. Although when Ulquiorra was active he did try hosting a private server to fool around on. It's not up 24/7 though.


To try and clear things up, are the areas circled in red elevated hills? It looks that way from the image, but I can't be sure. This is the kind of info that DeoX needs.

Thanks everybody for your replies , the hills are exactly like that , and sorry to DeoX , i didn't endurstood at first time .



I hope we will play at this soon .

Anybody have an idea how to change a stronghold into a sub lair please ?

I forgot. Ask Cola or Binnesses.
Binnesses helped me a lot with my map

I am i---t ! i know good binnesses he made some maps , i'll ask he now thanks .

And cola is still playing at savage ?

I don't know.
