[QUOTE=Stiffy360;36032270]You plan on releasing that anytime soon? holy crap...[/QUOTE]
Not really, it's part of a dead project for L4D2. I would have liked to finish it but I was taking too long with it and most of my motivation died out. Not to mention I suffered from constantly recreating the maps over and over since I got so sick of looking at the same thing.
Although I may consider releasing the vmf sometime seeing as I don't have much use for it anymore.
[QUOTE=mopman999;36032410]Dead Island?[/QUOTE]
Yeah pretty much, it was set in Hawaii. I started working on it 2 years or so ago long before I heard of Dead Island, but they're pretty similar. DI quickly became a source of inspiration and reference when I first saw pictures of it.

Good god do I know that feel
My first map was a simple brushed box with a player_start and a light.
These were also pretty my first/old maps lately.
One of my oldest maps.

I had lots of more maps i had made but some them were gone or are still in my projects folder....
[QUOTE=G-Enigma;36032779]3 years ago...
Large, brickwall-textured six-sided box full of guns and npcs with fullbright always on.
3 years later...
Same thing, now with ai nodes.
Humor aside, how many of the above maps have been released? Some of them look [B][I][U]really[/U][/I][/B] cool.[/QUOTE]
Wait...we can release maps?
:)
Some of my first maps (apologies for the large images).

My first try ever. This looks kinda good, but I failed completely with displacements, so it died half-way through.

My latest [size=5](third)[/size] map.
It's meant to be some kind of deserted apartment, but still heavy WIP, because the skybox is crap, doesn't fit the intended atmopshere.

Didn't get very far with my first map and ended up deleting it. I learnt a lot from it though.
Here's the first map I released, this was about a month after i first started learning:

Nice contrast,thought it was a real life photo at first.
My very first map was a hollow grass box. My second was a paper-thin build map.
Then I began to improve a bit. Prepare for images.

I have been working on that one room since Autumn 2011.
I'm sure I'll get there. Eventually.
[QUOTE=GunskiMod;36031747]When I first started mapping I didn't know you could have a different texture on each side of the brush and I didn't know nodraw existed.
Yeah...[/QUOTE]
I can't really say that I know how to use either of those things still, the pictures of my maps my look pretty but they are a mess of of the grid brushes roughly patched together. I just have a knack for decals and lighting along with prop placement to make them look good. The only reason I've gotten away with it so long is I keep my maps small and detailed.
I wanna see what 1duck's first map was. or Antimonycat.
[QUOTE=Stiffy360;36039613]I wanna see what 1duck's first map was. or Antimonycat.[/QUOTE]
I think I recall antimony posting in a thread similar to one like this. It was either Black Mesa themed using Half Life Source Textures or he used GoldSRC. I can't remember, but that's the oldest map I recall he made.

As you can probably tell, I'm not too good at pimping out playable areas of maps, but I consider myself pretty good when it comes to 3D skyboxes.

[QUOTE=NotExactly;36054971]Why rate him dumb? He's improved a fair amount...[/QUOTE]
At least he's learned some new things. 3D skybox (so it seems), displacements, lighting. THROW HIM A BONE YOU SELFISH MOTHERFUCKERS!

To really see the improvement, just look at the little building in the corner. Then compare it to the rightmost building in the old map. It's a huge improvement.

because anything that doesn't meet facepunchs expectations they rate dumb
