Hey, Here is a new map I released, I wanted to make something a bit like the flat grass 2009 but with more performances, I used the Garry's mod textures. - Full HDR - Flat and nice - Water - Doesn't cost a lot of performances - Militia skybox ( do it matter ? ) - Build in ep2 final compiler.

Download: 109.70.146.207:27015 [ Fast Download ] OR [url]http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/?a=view&id=108341[/url] Server offline, I'm working on it.

1. Just another flatgrass clone 2. No 3d skybox 3. Unimaginative, dull, no real features that you can't get in other maps. What happened to imagination?

There is no real build space, does this take up the entire grid?

There is simple, and there is unimaginative. The two do not co-exist.

An example of simple and imaginative would be the cube construct map.

Just three circle shaped islands, no imagination... Also there is reaaaaaally similar map to this, wich is made years ago. [editline]10:19PM[/editline] [url]http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/?tag=flat[/url]

Don't say anything if you don't like it. Always there to break others people work. I don't even get why you are a gold member. I think the word respect exist.

Respect does exist here. I respect mappers who can take criticism, and improve without making excuses. You have made several classic ones. There is no such thing as a perfect map, so suck it up.

I mean your bitching to one of the well respected members on here because he actually knows something about mapping, unlike you who created this map in what 20 minutes or even 30. Don't bitch at us because were being pricks, since we are only giving feedback. We're sick of these 10 minute flatgrass remakes week after week. Come up with something original or don't come up with something at all.

Me likes maps that take up full grid space. (excluding rp maps and gm_tinynuke)

And please don't say "I only put 30 minutes into it" because it make you look even worse

(excluding rp maps and gm_tinynuke)[/QUOTE] Because i hate most of them. Hardly ever is something original done in them. The first actual build map i made for example was underwater.

Unoriginal. And doesn't even serve its cause since there is barely build space. Oh, and you didn't even smooth the cylinder's lightmaps. This is horrible and useless.

[QUOTE=davlyn_20;24295489]Don't say anything if you don't like it.[/QUOTE] There's something called criticism. Don't return until you learn what it fucking is.

Well some have pointed out that this is quite bland in a couple of ways, but there are some things which are original about it which caught my attention. Firstly, you didn't use just a flat, bland displacement in the bottom of the water, which is good, but you should make the water deeper with the displacement starting lower from the islands so boats don't run aground so easily. Secondly, you made a flatgrass map that had more than one island on it, which isn't too common as far as I know. Maybe I'm wrong though.
