Topic: [MAP]Dm-Western

Hey,
this is my first map for Teeworlds. It's a small map for 1on1, but actually there can play up to 5 players.
As the name already says, the map is created in the desert-layout.
I haven't used any custom textures, or things like that.

Just give it a play and write your feedback.
Have fun!

Name: Western
Gametype: DM/TDM
Version: 1.2
Size: ~6Kb
Download: http://www.teeworlds.com/forum/viewtopi … 650#p69650

Screenshot (v.1.2):

1.1:
- Added corona to the sun
- TDM support
- Decoration/Doodads can be switched off now (uncheck "High Detail" in the menue)

Whoa. Scrolling down, i saw "New Member" and said "Hmm this should be not too good" but when I scrolled a bit more, I was really surprised. This looks like almost an official map! I could never master the desert tileset as you have done here, good job! [+1] (wow, got the desert tileset on your first try! nice.)

@alias,
thanks, I'm glad to see, that you like it. smile
Maybe it's because I'm not that new in the mapping-category.

If someone find things (or bugs) to be improved, just write and let me know.

Re: [MAP]Dm-Western

Joar, your map look very nice.
But you can make the map a little expanded. wink

Re: [MAP]Dm-Western

@Zatline,
it should actually be a small map, but when more members wish that, I will enlarge the Map. smile

Re: [MAP]Dm-Western

@Ryan Dale, thank you. smile

I added a corona to the sun, but I want now sth. movable now, but I don't know what.
Any ideas for good envelopes?

Re: [MAP]Dm-Western

i have a little improvement
as this is a dm map it can also be good for idm and tdm
tdm especially but you cant play as there are no places for blue or red team to respawn but i am not sure about it you can check
i hope my idea is taken in notice dont my words as judgement as i am not a very experienced map editor but i really like your layout +1
cheers dude and see you in the feild
big_smile
and the shading my man is awesome !!

I am not a pro and not a noob but try my best
i am not from Ksa i am from oman big_smile

Re: [MAP]Dm-Western

Hey ali || ksa,
no problem, dude. I want to perfectionate my maps, so I need criticism!!
How does it behaves?? Can I simply add to the standard-spawnpoints the team-spawnpoints? If there are no problems I will do that, thanks for the hint.
Thanks for the kind words. smile

PS: Next maps (CTF-Reverse-Maps, a special kind of CTF) are in development!!

Re: [MAP]Dm-Western

Well this is a good first map have seen much worse first maps out there.

Keep in mind beginners don´t use the hook that often. Try to reach every place in your map just by jumping without any hook.

The movement is good with hook but i would like to see more plane places and less gradients so you don´t have to jump that often. More gradients-> more jumps  less clean movement.

for maps i would recommend to always have a higher width than heigth. This will help you to create more plane places which adds a lot to the quality of the map in my opinion.

keep on

greets Marik

Re: [MAP]Dm-Western

Updated version was uploaded and added to the start post.

@Marik16,
interesting clue! I will consider this in my CTF-Maps I create (one is finished by now, but I have to beta-test it and clean it up then).

Re: [MAP]Dm-Western

Your map is nice, could be a new "1on1" map.
But i think your background is toooooooo yellow!

Re: [MAP]Dm-Western

@Crises,
thanks, I will care about that issue, when I'm done with CTF-Mine_rvs. smile
