Maps
Well I have taken into alot of new areas in mapping and have been learning alot of cool shit, take a look at this map I am trying to be able to make a map to the detail of Resident Evil games and at the same time trying to keep the R_Speeds down low. Here is a sample of my map es_raccooncity which I seem to be doing a good job on so you see for yourself and email me your thoughts and ideas at Shaggy644cc@aol.com
I thought using the skeleton by the cargo truck with the M4A1 next to it was a nice touch, I will add other shit to make it to the theme of Resident Evil, this map will be a sort of, chapter to the game.
Just know that this is going to take some time, mapping is hard and I want to get everything right on this map :P
I like to take an area of my map, such as this warehouse, and once I completed it, I take a look around and make small simple changes and they all add up to totally alter the map to look the way I want it to look. And I also do this to think of maybe ambient sounds I could possibly add to make the area more surreal, and so I can keep modifying it so it isn't all laggy and shit heh
Also those who know me as a mapper in the past with my other projects, I will not have trashed maps anymore I fixed my worldcraft and now I can do all the things I needed to do to in areas I was handicapped before, hard to explain just I won't be trashing my maps OK!!!!! :D
Here are some current screenshots

I thought of a new way to map, since my map goes thru so many alterations and such that it would be cool to first do my map like I have done so far, than take that same layout and make the same map next to it, and this time I will already know what I want so it will get done better.
Here check these out for more info
Here is the map so far

Here are some more cool screenies of what I got in development...
Redid the office
Made a cool storage room much like that in Resident Evil 3
And these two were just for fun =)

Thought it up when I was stoned around 3am Tuesday April 17th 2001
