Just got into mapping today. Have been curious but finally went for it. Started mapping basics around 6pm EST. Is now 3:08am EST... been mapping for quite some time now. Just wanted to know any thoughts, ideas, or suggestions for this design. Even if it is not officially accepted by EIR when it is finished I will post the files for download so that those who might want to try it out can.      No where near done just thought I would share some hard work. |

I actually like the fact the teams don't start with each other, it could be interesting.

feedback: too small square = bad (should be neuville/abbevile like shape) lots of stone walls = bad (lvs can't rush) town is too much clusterfuck. open it up. and turn FOG off when making pics  have fun. |

Yea I saw that before. I didnt label it but it ends up being divided like that more or less. not really square more circular but general idea of camp middle/no mans land and flanking on the sides. Needs work. Will be putting in a couple more hours today but I have a paper to write for class so that comes first. Will post new screens when available. Thanks for the advice |

If you want to keep the stone walls everywhere, make sure you destroy a bunch of them or put holes so that it doesnt mess up infantry path finding.

Skaffas maps are great but if everyone would follow that guide we would have a bunch of maps that are basicly the same.
I like when people try to add their own flavor!
I would love to try this map!

I would disagree with you on that Dnicee. Skaffa has presented a basic outline of a good game play map design. However, that backbone can be completely unique in every build. For example, this map can still be a circle in the middle while holding true to the Saffa outline (there, it's been officially named) @ Contaminator Groundfire is correct. My first thought when I saw it was "How the fuck are my infantry going to get in there" Same with the courtyard in the middle. I think it needs some holes. Keep up the good work. I really like all the effort you are putting into the community. |

Some simple edits and re-textured the city area from asphalt to muddy cobble stone. Town too cramped, used lower buildings, and ruralized it a tad. should look a bit better and seem less cramped. Skaffa style break down of how I plan on getting the map to function.  Town area Yellow: planned insert of footpath Blue: Current oppenings for Inf/small vehicles  Orchard Area Yellow: planned insert of inf sized throughway (probably a broken fence) Blue: Current openings  Still working  |

I like the circle ying-yang look. It's interesting and can lead to some cool city fighting but I definitely like the open sides for the rural style fighting.
As long as stuff can move around well enough in the circle and into and out of the fields without bottlenecking I like it.

Thanks Trying to do something a tad different than whats been done tons before. I may end up scraping in the end but for right now its full steam ahead. Will never know what it will actually play as till you play it  |
