My First Map (it's terrible basically)


Front Left of the house.


Front Right of the house.


Under the house, showing the crap support things I put in for added reals.


And finally, the power box and the power line pole. Both with env_sparks. :3

Keep in mind, this is my first map, so yeah.

Not as bad as I expected, could use some dangling cables on those power lines though, the terrain needs to be displaced too.

Also, where is that light coming from? It needs a light prop as a logical source.

Ive seen worse. hell, i’ve made worse.

[COLOR=‘Magenta’]Looks good, really. It just needs more detail. Keep up the good work. :slight_smile:

do all that’s mentoined above and add some furniture, that’d be an awesome map.

I like your potential here. It’s got some hints of Le Corbusier going on, with the stilts and the large horizontal planes and glass walls. Keep some of these things in mind, though: Those stairs are enormous, and don’t have any railings. You should add more, but smaller, steps, and cut down on the diagonal risers and add some railings. Also, a house built on stilts wouldn’t be made out of bricks, it’d be made out of concrete or something similar and would have metal, not wood, stilts. Also, if you add columns to the outside walls, perhaps some pilasters, then it’d not only break up the outside walls but add realistic support to the whole structure. I like your direction, though. :slight_smile:

Add a dark forest with gnomes everywhere
do eet

Windows are nice too.

I can see it needs a scaled skybox

:expressionless:

i hope youre not making your IRL house

Yeah who would be lame enough to do that.

o wait

The only thing that’s terrible is the lighting

But since it’s your first map, I’d say good job

I wouldn’t like a 1mm thick flat roof, though. Doesn’t seem to be able to hold a lot of water or snow (or a pigeon for that matter).

It could be a Jewish style house.

this guy here sounds like a valve employee

Err… No S/he doesn’t.

well at least you lucky enough that hammer works for you in half life. It only works for tf2 and portal for me :confused:

This is a lot better than my first map was… :hmph:

Not bad at all for a first time mapper!
