More than decent mapper needs job.

[Daemon513]

Okay, i posted the same topic before…but it was locked. most likely because i was out of state. and i found out, i forgot to post any of my Screenshots. So here are a few. I haven't mastered Blending yet, i'll need a bit more practice. Also, i'd like a decent game to work on, and a game that NEEDS my help...

this was the first map i've ever made

and this the second


Here's another screenshot. It's just a quick one i made in World of Tahl.


(New screenshots)



(EDIT)
(I've gotten better, and i'll post the better ones soon.)

They aren't the best, but in my eyes they're okay. I didn't post here for Criticism, so please no 'omfg, that's horrible man, get lost' please. These are only my first few map's i've made. (yes, i DO realize that i should probably practice more with it before looking for a job, but i'd like to talk with people as i work on these maps.)

I don't have alot to offer, just similar maps like these if made from scratch, but also, i can do GREAT touch-ups. I was told by somebody that i did a better job with touch-ups than with making them from scratch. (but then she said i was good with making maps too, i'm just BETTER with touch-ups)

I'm good with following rules (of course, who isn't? ;) ) and i don't take advantage of mapping (aka: making a spawn point for my personal gain, as in giving myself rare item-drops.)

I'm not very good with scripting…i really haven't done it before.
I can make good NPC's and monsters with Fair (but not too good) drops. (usually taking the monster's level and multiplying by two for gold drops. and making it like a 1 in 15 chance of getting that.)

I don't NEED a Moderator or Admin position, i have all i need with just mapping. I just think that Admin positions are more fun.

Pretty much saying:
Give me rules, ill follow them
Give me limits/boundaries, i won't push them
Give me work, i'll finish it
Give me a mapper position, cause you need one  :P

also, i'd like it if i wasn't working alone on this. Maybe a few other people. I don't mind being the only mapper, but i'd like to have a few people there. Thanks.

wow, i love how many people jumped on it…nvm then i'll start my game back up.

the maps are almost ok…. but nothing special.. they need more detail in my opinion =P

Don't wanna sound mean.. but.. yeah… those maps aren't something you'd wanna show when trying to find a positions in a game.. they.. well nicely put.. suck.

[Sealbreaker]

@ice: nah they dont suck… but arent really that good ^^

[IceCream Tuesday]

Idk.. my standards point towards suck lol. But I could be picky compared to others.

[Sealbreaker]

okk…. they suck, you're right xD

[Daemon513]

umm, yeah, leave the topic please…I get it, you don't need me as part of your games, and it's a waste of your time to post here...

[dtdsora]

Ah.. sorry man. Should of put some points to my post. The maps just are empty, and lack uniqueness, they are bland.

Map 1:  Not horrible, make the pathway less uniform and square, maybe add a different shape to the building. The grass path in the top right, have part of it swing down a little, and have more of a natural growth pattern.

Map 2: Way to empty, if thats all you have to fill it. Don't make it so big, cut it down to like 1/4th the size and just put in whats needed, thats a huge room to only have a few objects against the walls.

Map 3: The grassy snow tile is hard on the eyes, so try to keep it to a minimum use. using the other snow is much nicer, also the snow to the grass-snow needs transition tiles.

Map 4: The Rock and water edges are to uniform again, give them some randomness.

Map 5: Eh. nothing more to say then its just a boring map. Addition of a thick group of trees may add more to it so it won't be uninteresting.

Map 6: Within caves, randomness is your friend, adding a few levels in the cave would be nice, and not having a straight path in a cave makes it look much better. Make it look natural instead of something made by people.

Sorry again for my other post. hopefully I helped instead of insulting again. :/

To say your a "more than decent mapper" is a lie, you really need to put in more detail and fill up empty space.

Yeah, that's mainly what bug me. But what ever floats his boat. He seems to have found someone who likes his maps.

I asked for everyone not to judge my maps, a few of them, such as the house were some of my first maps, so BACK OFF! doesn't matter anyway, i'm an admin for Tantra Global now, which i get paid for, so it works out well. Topic can be closed now.
