DM Sewer map \o\

Made without a tutorial or other source of help.

Hi Ya'll This must've been one of my oldest maps I could find images of. Before that was lots of Quake Two Mods and Duke Nukem 3D ( sitll one of my favorites!) It was released with GUnman Chronicles and the good old days! After that I went to unreal Engines and havent looked back since.

I remember how jealous I was back in the Quake days of Unreal's realtime (and color) lighting system in the editor when we were stuck with full bright lighting in Worldcraft hahaha

Wow cool, I remember playing the demo for Gunman Chronicles! Welcome to Mapcore

Wow yeah, I bought and played gunman and I enjoyed it pretty much. Very nice leveldesign.

Welkom!

Some HL stuff I did a few years ago when learning to map for it.

thx, it wasn't all that quick considering it took me around 10 months to finish. Plus that's like mapping ~4 hours a day. I think I ended up redoing the map like 3 times from the ground up until I was happy with the brushwork. Now if I can just finish one of the 4 maps I'm currently working on...

Not actually a first map but first (AND ONLY) prefabs i ever made, these was done like after a few months of mapping or something. Year was 2001 i believe. I remember i was very proud of these

tr_closecombat1 and tr_closecombat2 where my first released maps.

Some time after that I made my first decent map, de_dust2on2.

I remember DaveJ saying it was the best map using the dust texture set after de_dust on the cs.net forums

Here is a review lol:
