<div class="IPBDescription">because I have no skillz</div> Its a two parter:
A) if I drew up a concept map, and turned artistic license over to a mapper, would they do it for me?

B) if no, would one of ya be willing to coach me on the skills of mapping/direct me to a good tut.site for me to read?

What would be in the concept map?

Liger

ah yes... a reply >_>


Well, I've had an idea at the back of my mind for a while, and I haven't bothered to fully flesh it out because I have no skill with any mapping software, not without having tried a couple times. (got overwhelmed)

I'm not a hundred on what exactly you meant by what would be in it, so I'll try to cover all my bases on what it could mean:

Effectivly an original ectching out of how I'd seen the map being in layout. NS maps are moderatly easy to draw out because of the 2d nature they have to have for the commander veiw to work correctly.

Anyway, I'll get started on my concept map now, and upload it later today.

Confused

this is a completely feasible idea.

i suggest reading some of the posts in this forum about how to build a map.

personally i find it works best to build in little sectionsand paste them all to geter at teh end .
any way im gona try and get some work done let me know if you need help or have questions

Yes, I think I'm actually going to go with my option two for the time being...

I've found a tutorial site on the basics, but, there's a couple thing's I need to get first, so...

I got appearently a very stripped version of worldcraft3... and I need to find a CSG, BSP, VIS, & RAD executables... so what do people use?

Also, what all .wads should I load into it?

Do you have some kind of atmosphere your going for? What would the setting be? Do you want the level to seem overwhelming or clostrophobic? All these things and more are what I meant when I said "what would be in the concept map"
