Level editing

[Wishkah]

Morning all! Just wondering if anyone else makes maps or mods for games, since it's in a similar vein (or vane...I'm not sure...) to CG.

I haven't actually done a great deal myself, but I was the world's biggest Build addict, making levels for Duke3D. Gods...that was a horrible program =P Crashed at random every five minutes (literally. Well, almost.) And then Worldcraft, for HL. Then there was a passing interest in Machinima, with grand plans for a film in HL2. Then the hacking (or leaking), and that all pretty much went down the tubes, but I'd started tinkering with Gmax. And now I'm about to borrow six-******-thousand ****** dollars (NZ dollars) and buy Max. (Soon as the trial expires and the withdrawals kick in. *twitch*)

Eh...yeah...anyway, anyone else know how HINT brushes work, or what an ORIGIN texture is for? =P Or what the lo-tag for a swinging door is?

vain maybe...

For which program are you going on about??

And I don't like Max. Yes, I have tried it. I've got Max 6 trail on my machine right now. I prefer LW. I've got Radiant tho for Jedi Academy tho. Its a pretty good mapping program. I want to try modding the game... but thats way more difficult:P.

The only map I've tried to release was sent back to me because it was a winrar file instead of winzip... heh

Well a while back was was making a map for counter strike but the same thing happened to you as it did to me........it shut down every 5-10 minutes at random. I couldn't take it anymore so I just dropped the whole project.

But i'm probably going to do it for hl2. I don't know how much my ideas can be succesfully contributed though because everybody's making a mod.......so my idea is probably already used:( I might just do it anyway:)

Guess it's how I came to 3D..more or less ;)
