scifista42 Posted September 30, 2015 A few tips: 1. Avoid linearity, add non-linearity. 2. Avoid rectangular/blocky shaped rooms, make interestingly shaped architecture. 3. Avoid corridor-heavy layouts, focus on open and/or interconnected structures. 4. Be sure to add enough height and light variation. 5. Do not cover entire large walls by a single texture. 6. Do not use FLAT20 on extensive areas of floors, it tends to look ugly. 7. If you want a "base-ish" feel, preferably replace lava with nukage or water or slime. 0 Share this post Link to post
Xaser Posted October 1, 2015 This is the mapping equivalent of asking for advice on music composition, going to open mic night, and then belching into the microphone for seven straight minutes. 0 Share this post Link to post

Funnily enough that might work if he wandered into a comedy club. As long as he doesn't throw up 4 minutes in. 0 Share this post Link to post

Grain of Salt Posted October 2, 2015 What you need is time. Spend your time making things you enjoy playing. That's all. 0 Share this post Link to post
Godling Posted October 2, 2015 Instead of making a whole level... try just making a single cool room. Maybe try to get good at making cool looking areas prior to cranking out a full level. 0 Share this post Link to post
esselfortium Posted October 2, 2015 A lot of your threads on DW have suggested that you're mainly interested in making intentionally-poor troll wads. If that's your plan, please don't bother wasting everyone else's time on trying to teach you. 0 Share this post Link to post

CyberDemonEmpress Posted October 2, 2015 I think you do, or at least aspire to. You seem to idolize terry and troll wads. I hope I am wrong, but it seems that way to me.. Sadly. 0 Share this post Link to post
