That's a picture about a month before map release.

my first map was a sandbox map with teleporters, an admin room, and a theater. And giant areas to build in.

[T]http://img535.imageshack.us/img535/2787/ss20110803143603.png[/T] A hollowed box with a couple spawn points, thats all my first map was. Somehow back then I thought it was the best map ever. What was I smoking.

My first map was a hollowed box with the default brick texture. I then made a few spawns and compiled it. To my amazement it worked so I was extremely happy that I had created an actual working map. In fact, I was so excited that I started it in Garry's Mod and invited all my friends to play my glorious creation. I was so proud of myself and played on it for like 15 minutes thinking it was the best build map ever :downs:. Fortunately, none of my friends joined to tell me how shit it was.

Mine first map was made in August of 2008 and I actually ended up releasing it on facepunch and surprisingly didn't get flamed. After creating it, it made me feel proud to make a map at the time. Anyway here are some screenshots that I just took: [T]http://i54.tinypic.com/vzhbur.jpg[/T] [T]http://i51.tinypic.com/28iqa2a.jpg[/T] [T]http://i52.tinypic.com/122gapk.jpg[/T] [T]http://i52.tinypic.com/qqws9k.jpg[/T] [T]http://i52.tinypic.com/68vg9v.jpg[/T]

No, seriously. I get mad looking through this thread.

My first map was a messy piece of shit: [url]http://www.gamebanana.com/maps/142573[/url] [QUOTE=Stinkyarmpit;31452573]Shhh don't tell anyone i'm the one that was making this. Yes it was my first map too.. you should be able to tell what game it's from. I'm ashamed of what i set out to do with it though because i should of kept it in the dark. I wasn't experienced enough to make anything more of it. Of course these are later revisions of the map but no less than 20-35 hours of experience at that point on these. Reference screenshots helped alot.

I know it's based off of Beyond Good and Evil, what did you intend the map for if you had finished it?

A box with an "antlion arena" but now i make destructible maps

A crappy gmod build map that I released a long ass time ago somewhere under some alt account.

here's my first blocky turd [IMG]http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e244/teshok/178105.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e244/teshok/178106.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e244/teshok/178110.jpg[/IMG]

My first map ever was on Heretic in 1994 with the DCK toolkit, mind you I was only 3. Spent many years on Duke Nukem 3D before I switched to Half-Life 1 in 1998 when I found Worldcraft on the CD. It took me a lot of time before I accepted to switch to the source engine even after HL2's release because I was considering Source as an insult to Mapping because of all these maps made out of prop spam while we on HL1 were working on asses off to do things with only brushes. That's the oldest thing I've been able to find. [img]http://img68.imageshack.us/img68/3010/picyw3.jpg[/img]

Or first map you released? Because I find it hard to believe that you made that as your very first Hammer project. No offense meant, of course. I'm just somewhat confused.

[QUOTE=Quark:;31567322][url=http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1114131Gm_QBuild]My first map[/url][/QUOTE] 404 - File or directory not found. [editline]6th August 2011[/editline] My first map was made when I got the book "Half-Life 2 Mods For Dummies". It was a badly-lit room with the default brick texture, a lot of zombies, and an SMG. The only semi-impressive thing was the func_breakable glass which protected you from the zombies. I had used props for the windows (it was a black-barred thing) and skybox buildings for the skybox, rather than the usual sky_camera method :v: I also tried to make a Headcrab launcher, but that failed, too.

I know it's based off of Beyond Good and Evil, what did you intend the map for if you had finished it?[/QUOTE] I dunno maybe a animal picture game.. i already had the space whale floating around. The whole point was just to envision the game in the source engine but that was over my head well atleast at the time. I used the references to learn mostly.

My first map was a concrete floor, stupidly high one texture walls, a crowbar and some combine.

The first map I ever made included pointy displacements, a brick building, some striders, and a custom skybox. It didn't look THAT bad, but I really despised it because apparently i'm a "perfectionist"...

My first map that wasn't just a tutorial was a little project with a friend, where we made a room that had a door that needed to be unlocked with a button before it would open, to a gravity gun outside in a green field of displacements.

[QUOTE=ProAnMac;31571830]I was so proud of myself... but its so bad.[/QUOTE] That's not too bad. If it just had some better lighting along with a few more details along the walls, it could look pretty nice.
