Alright this is my third post on FH, About 200 members saw my first map preview, U-turn and after a some feedback (a lot which was very helpful) Ive decide to but the map on hold, and make way for my new map!.. with no name! But this time this map has a lot more Geo-merges and Interlocks which are the only thing that matter to a lot of people on this website :/ I think. Notes: This map takes a lot of inspiration from Ravinia by GD 27 Sh0ckWave and Grindstone by Rusty Eagle and Shadow Viper. I wont flip over boxes, it looks like ****... even if the floor looks nice this sides will have upside down symbols and letters that doesn't make sense. THIS MAP HAS A BUDGET! Note the floating box my or my not be a roof to the center box Start of O-base I'll try to be updating the rest of my vacation, but after that i might not be on so much since i gots school and a girlfriend to look forward too oh and I'm Up to suggestions for a map name
This looks very reminiscent of Ravinia (I have no idea what Grindstone is, can you post a link to it so I can see?). Remember to keep your own unique style and originality in this, not just a foundry copy of Ravinia, even though that would be kinda cool. But that's not what you're looking to do I hope. It's looking very clean and smooth, nice job with that. I suggest whenever you use a box you use the bottom-side of the single and double boxes as the top even if you refuse to do so, they look better aesthetically in probably every member's eyes. But that's a decision up to you. Nice job, continue with this work and you'll have yourself a stellar map. Can't wait for the final product.
Dylan, this is Grindstone. I can't believe you haven't heard of it. I can't really judge competitive maps, but I can say that I like where it's going so far. I just hope that you include more height variation that just one level.
I wasn't around here or even a member when that was posted in November of '08. I wasn't here for that 2v2 tourney, so I never got around to finding or seeing that.
