<div class="IPBDescription">Post Sites here What have lots prefabs</div> <a href='http://www.ejoop.com/pfl/' target='_blank'>http://www.ejoop.com/pfl/</a> (has very much prefabs,some nice ones to that could be used to customize maps.)
Also I noticed lately, that people haven't never been into making maps with Totally New Textures(I.e Breaking off the NS theme, i.e to make somekind of map with for example stargate Theme). Here for Example a Teleporter Prefab, Transportation Rings from Stargate <a href='http://www.ejoop.com/pfl/showlist.asp?prefabid=1293&formtype=2' target='_blank'>http://www.ejoop.com/pfl/showlist.asp?pref...1293&formtype=2</a> . Also a Xen Portal Prefab <a href='http://www.ejoop.com/pfl/showlist.asp?prefabid=526&formtype=2' target='_blank'>http://www.ejoop.com/pfl/showlist.asp?pref...=526&formtype=2</a> ,people Customize Your Maps a bit, make things that can help tranversing around the map without marines need to build phase gates in every square!It would also be helpful if all buildings could be customized by the map, as the player models and weapons etc and customize how they act a bit(Ala Idea From Svencoop). More Maps that can be more than TSA Installations, we aren't alone in the universe you know. Alien Ships, Alien Installations, you name it. Just if it has a Kharaa Activity Going on there and TSA is interested salvaging possible new technologies there. Stargate themed maps would make very nice looking ones, as ya could use torches, ambient lightning without need to have lights as aliens could've discovered technology to make lights without a light on the roof or something. (Note This Post is about Maps, and customizing them further, just didnt fit in topic name limit).

This is because in the mapping guidelines it says that making your own textures is no encouraged so that the levels STAY within the theme of NS, and not breaking it.
Of course, this is only for those people who want their map to become official.
yah, I'm working on ancient alien temple <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
