in Mapping Forum
<div class="IPBDescription">you cant tell me how to do.</div> This is a mapping forum right? Specialised for NS. The one tutorial I dont understand. Can you please tell me how to map (what do I need?........). If you cant helpme, then you shouldnt have a Forum. I promise to make a tutorial if I been introduced in NS-mapping. Then other NS-mmappingnoobs could possibly make nice maps.

Please help.

    Ok, tell me where the other tutorials are? How about that? And the "NICE" search function didnt bring explainations of everything I need. Sorry for my "UNKINDNESS"!

    QBMan please give us some specific questions that we can answer. We don't know what YOU need. What are you haveing trouble with?

    We Know :
    It's not worldcraft setup (see previous thread)
    It's not how to use worldcraft (see previous thread)
    It's not what NS entitires exist (because the quickstart guide doesn't help)
    It's not what NS entitires to use for a readyroom/hive/marine start (because the quickstart guide doesn't help)

    Ok, when I take a bit of every tutorial I might be able to learn the entity system of NS. Thx for the help.
    It will take a while, but I show some screenshots soon.

    Coil... was it you? Where are our posts? It was just... for fun. We never meant to be anti-americans (lol, I like that word). But ok... next time there is a dude from Germany I will also post the English translation <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
    Let's start right here:

    DE: Tutorial, das das Partikelsystem von NS beschreibt. Etwas veraltet aber, das beste was ich kenne. Zumindest besser als mit all den Werten des env_particles rumzuexperimentieren:
    EN: Tutorial describing NS' particle system. Not quite up to date, but the best one I know of.
    At least it is better then experimenting with all the values of env_particles on your own:

    Less hostile please...sooo much hostility in such a new mapper <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    If you spend 10 minutes looking you'll find "other" tutorials.

    Just check out the stickies on the top of the mapping forum.
    There are a few very good tutorials/design considerations.
    Check out <a href='http://www.vlatitude.com' target='_blank'>http://www.vlatitude.com</a>
    There are step by step instructions that guide u through everystep.
    Noone can tell you "How to map" it's a lot of trial and error.
    Also be sure to check out <a href='http://www.valve-erc.com' target='_blank'>http://www.valve-erc.com</a>

    Want HL mapping tutorials?

    use google for crying out loud.
    If you came in here asking for help at every little stumble you face without ever trying by yourself to find the answers... your mapping career will be short and uneventful.

    What I have figured out through tryal and error (or just plain dumb luck) would be nice to have in a tutorial. Like for example masterswardsman's tutorial is nice but have a kinda artsy tutorial telling people that hallways are booring if they are just rectangular. Also on how to use textures correctly how they contrast with eachother. And how to use Hammer more efeciantly shortcuts ect...

    I think it would also be nice to see the mapping forum FAQ brought up to date, as it hasn't been touched since like January <b>2002</b>.

    From the sounds of it you need to check out <a href='http://collective.valve-erc.com' target='_blank'>The Valve Editing Rescouce Center</a> FIRST.

    Read it, every single page of it, if you have to. Once you understand how to map, then come back here, and learn how to map for NS. You gotta crawl before you walk and walk before you run.

    They specificly tell you right up front that this is not the resource for learning to map. This is the resource for learning to map for NS. There is a big difference.

    Quite frankly, you already sound like you don't have the patients required for mapping. I suggest you cool your jets a little and don't expect instant gratification, either from us OR mapping, because your not going to get it either way. You will only get out as much as you put in.

    The work that your use to looking at (Eclipse, Caged, Hera, ect.) was done by dedicated people who spend countless hours crafting these worlds tirelessly. You had better understand that before you go copping an additude at the good people here.

    I ESPECIALLY don't want to hear any lame excuses about the Forum Search Engine. Here's a bright idea, try Google, or Yahoo sometime. You couldv'e already been well on your way if you'd shown just the slightest initiative, done something for yourself, and simply typed "Half-life Map Editing" into either of the search engines I just mentioned.
