    UPDATED 8-14-09:





    Finished Maps:
    • None, get to work.

    News:
    • Ravage by Xylom has been put up for adoption.
    • All news has been Cleared and the thread cleaned.
    I know a lot of people out there make sketchups and just put them aside to never be seen again, either because they are bad at forge, don't have the patience, or just make the maps on sketchup to kill some time. Here, you can insert pictures or concepts of your sketchup for the community to admire and/or adopt. In here, all sketchups are fair game, and anyone can attempt to make them.

    Please no flaming other people's designs, as all sketchup designs are welcome.




    Maps In Progress:
    • None



    Random Designs:


    Symmetrical


    Asymmetrical
    • None.
    FORGE 'FREE AGENTS':
    This is a spot for all forgers our there who are looking for a sketchup to forge, if you post stating you are a free agent I will add you to a list. You can also include a few details about the kind of maps you would like to forge. I will design a map for the first free agent I get based on some of the details they provide.

    Stay On Topic!

    Note: This is not a thread to promote your maps!
    Ex. of what not accepted: Hey guys, I have a cool map that is really cool. Go to my file share to download, or download here \/\/ww.example.com/yourmaphere

    Thread shamelessly copied from Sketchup database/discussion - MLG Forums, thanks 2AMPd

    Help me keep this thread alive and on the frontpage as I doubt anyone is going to sticky it, too many stickys as it is.

    You know, I'm still interested in making that map if it's still open. If I take the time, I can merge things flawlessly and it will look great in the end. I can get some friends to help me too.

    Has anyone found a way to get sketchup to run properly on x64 Windows 7? Mines runs incredibly slow.

    Turning off textures will help it run better, but it runs just fine in vista x64?

    Is there a limit to the amount of pics?

    This map is rotationally symmetrical, the map itself is relatively simple, but I'm very sure that the map flows well, there are no isolated structure that don't link to anything in particular. There are long and short lines of sight, and a very simple but aesthetically pleasing centrepiece, please advise me on weapon placement, as I cannot make many maps, let alone test them, due to being grounded. :(

    Anyways, I have seven pics, if you need more views, don't hesitate to let me know.

    Overview and final weapon layout:

    Blue Base View 1 (same as red base):

    Blue base view 2:

    Blue side base view 1:

    Centrepiece:

    Hope you like it! (EDIT: I believe I owe credit to Titmar for the bases' pillars from his latest map whose name has escaped me :S)

    Hierarchy by Xylom

    I made this over about 6 hours, my first experiance in sketchup. I personally think it is asthetically pleasing but there is alot of geomerging. Some things you should know:
    • On the side bases there is supposed to be a mancannon shooting players onto the sniper platform for some RvR fun.
    • I might have used to many large ramps and/or large columns.
    • I originally intended for it to be MLG
    • The map is symmetrical

    Now, on to the pictures-

    It would probably have more connectivity if you put a door right here.

    C'mon people there has to be more of you with SketchUp, or need inspiration for a map?

    This is the place to go when you have no idea what sort of map you are going to make, you can start with any of these ideas and either expand on them, or tweak them to suit your needs.

    This is the birthplace of future features. (modest much?)

    A base idea for the crypt:
