+---- Thread: [Submission] Attempting my first map :) (/showthread.php?tid=1128)
Attempting my first map :) - HOS_Rai_Rai - 22-02-2012
Im currently working on a Map.
Senuzgda Castle
Gonna Log on MB when i get home, and take a tour in the courtyard and get the details from it., and transform it to a NI Map
So the Idea is a Siege/castle map., whit some green/open area Infront. (all again depending on what i see ingame
gonna copy as much as i can, lower it down, fit it for AI's and hopefully get something good out of it)Been reading the forums good true., and i think I have taken the most things into my progress.
Such as....
Archer/Cav/Inf Freindly (both AI/Players)
Ammoboxes/shrine/soup placed, not to far/short from spawn/action
Barricades placement options
Overwatch for Archers
Narrow/wide areas for Inf
Open area for Cav
First attempt ever., never done any maps for MB/MBW/MB-Mods, but alot before, for such as Delta Force:Black Hawk Down, Battlefield 1942 and Arma/Flashpoint.
So i have Confidence
But if some have some good start up pointers, ideas., ect, plz feel free to share

Off the mark, you will have to be careful about using stairs. Cav have a huge problem with it so ramps tend to be a better solution.
Re: Attempting my first map :) - HOS_Rai_Rai - 23-02-2012
That is noted., allready ahead
Read former maps/pointers There will also be 2 Seige towers leading up to wall 2 places., to make sure cav can come in. Also i seen cav get up some stairs on some maps on the servers
I will note it, and make sure to have it whit me, when i build later today, after i get home from work

Just place barriers over your stairs so it acts as a ramp to allow cav up easily.

Or you can a barrier to the stairs to reduce the need of a ramp? That or you can stretch out the stairs to see if it works?
