super crazy idea

[Duff-e]

why dont you guys make a forum or something of the sort where people can release the vmf files of their maps....open sourcercizing your maps....of course it will invite tons of noobs but 1/10 will learn something and might be one of the great mappers of all time omg! (and they'll always remember you)

How does this belong in the Finished Work Gallery though?

[FrieChamp]

I don't think such a forum would be popular.

[Fullauto]

Example maps highlighting a specific technique + a written companion tutorial = good.

Open source maps = bad. If people have the relevant skills, they won't need to have other people's vmfs. All that can possibly come from this is plagiarism.

its an alright idea

but first we need a mappers list like in the old days, and a mappning help section

[Section_Ei8ht]

tutorials are good enough.

I think the tutorial forum could be nice add to these forums. I'm willing to write basic Hammer tutorials... anyone else interested?

Notice the wink? There was no vindictiveness behind it, man.

I remember emailing scary one and asking him for an .rmf back when I first started mapping umpteen years ago. He sent me two .rmfs (for outcry and enraged iirc) and it helped me immensely in terms of learning good mapping practices and developing some style. Top bloke. He was a mapping God and an inspiration to me when I started. Nothing much has changed in that respect I guess.

scary_1 and scary_2 were two of the most God damn beautiful maps ever created for the HL engine.

Ever since then I've done the same when asked for .rmf files for my maps.

P.s. I see he's signed up for Source: AG and look forward to seeing what he creates.
