Mappers Info Thread

[G-Man]

Yo, this is odd but i was hoping to see who the mappers are in the community. Just give a shout out if your a mapper and say what your currently working/how long you've been mapping/what kinda maps you like to make/ anything you wanna say relevant to you and mapping.

Well im a mapper. Ive really only made about 2 maps and ive edited quite a few. But i find that i work on a map and i give up cuz it strikes me as a bad map, or i dont know how to do something. Now, without a doubt, i've mastered hammer because ive been using it for about three years and ive read tutorials since then too, so all the maps i make it the future should be good. I like to make sure that a map is the three most important things, which are fair/fun/and a nice-looking map. Lots of people ask for my help when they are mapping cuz they dont know how to do something. Im usually generous to give them a good answer but if you have trouble mapping look up tutorials on google.

G-Man I only have 1 tutorial and that's you :D

Okay atm I'm working on a map request by Easy but first I'm fixing up my 2nd map run_bitch_run.

zm_run_bitch_run

Originally, this map was called Zombieball extended and then tbox warehouse but after trying the map and getting feedback, I decided to completely change the maps into an idea I had.

But that's in another threat, anyways the map tested well and I found a few problems out that will be fixed in version 2 that I'm working on atm.

Unnamed map

Haven't fully sorted this one yet, Easy Rider requested I make him a map and did a drawing of what it would look like, from there I've added my own idea with his permission and am currently drawing how I want it to look.

- Two part office complex, linked by a bridge.
- Housing complex
- Car Park
- Tunnel to a secret passage, protected by a pin code.
- 3D Skybox (If I can make it)

This ones gonna take awhile, it's a big project tbh especially for someone so new to mapping but I'll get it done.

I have made many regular css maps mostly for online gaming clans I think the total regular maps is about 35 it provides a income to keep up my server and web site. I have about 10 1.6 maps including an early version of fy_iceworld witch is very popular these days.

My zombie mod maps I’m making a few zombie mod maps at the moment I plan to mass produce maps this summer (partly why I joined this site to get my maps on the server) I help raise the fps on the bio maps (bio_fear frostbite…)

zm_crazys_pnut_ball_b3
The only map I have on fpsbanana It is a remake of zombie ball it is very fair but needs some work I wouldn’t suggest downloading it and adding it to the server its still to small I’m working on a update shouldn’t be very long. The original zombie ball sucks and I attempted to improve it because it was popular on the nza server and I hated it

zm_crazys_warehouse_be4
This is my first attempt at a zombie mod map this is the ONLY map I suggest you add to the server it is full of fun goodies and hidden stuff I think it has 32 spawn points but it might have more if you want to add more use mani to do so. The map uses classic dev textures because that was my goal to make a classic style map. Using dev textures allowed me to make huge areas and maintain god fps. This map is not available for download anywhere and I will add it to fpsbanana tomorrow for ya guys.

Old screens from b1






zm_crazy_glass_pit (currently working on)
This map will be done to look for. I’m actually spending time to make this one look great have interesting cades and camping spots many hidden rooms and overall great fps the map is a old glass map that I have changed to have a lil style open area with a militarily facility on it it should be really fun to play

the only pic i have at the moment not a full compile you also get to see my mad photoshop skills i made a spary for a clan member


zm_crazys_winter (status unknown)
This map should have been released a long time ago I lost all my files when my computer crashed and I also lost the map I plan to remake it but I don’t know if I will the map is simple you have to run into a a massif army base that was over run and survive there are hidden passages and rooms






zm_crazys_star bucks (just need to add cading objects)
I also lost this map but I sent it to a few friends so I can decompile it and finish it off when I get around to it seems how I don’t have it the map will be moved the end of my to-do list. This map when finished will revolutionize the zombie mod mapping community it has many real-time buildings and areas including stapes and star bucks coffee. With over 50 camping rooms 4 buildings 18 hidden rooms a average of 50fps and 64 spawn points this map will be a must on large servers

very old pics







zm_crazys_gloomy_greenery (Status: in dev textures)
I made a greenhose and took pillars from an old map that you many has the redone version ghs_killer_field I’ve only worked out the layout

zm_crazys_mansion_remake
A remake of zombie_mansion to fix fps and errors
