Hi! i'm new in the quake mapping community, i started making a map all by myself using the help of dumptruck_ds videos in the 21st of may this year, the map is still not finished but i wanted to share a couple of screenshots to know what people think about the map.

That's looks pretty darned clean for a 1st map. Be sure to check out the Quake Mapping Discord (It's linked in the 'links' link above). I love Func_MsgBoard, but you probably get more feedback if you post it in there, and there are some great people in the community who will surely give some great feedback :) 

I agree with Ricky - very clean and polished for a work in progress, first map! Regarding your lighting, here's an excellent set of tips from sock to "punch up" the illumination in your maps:

thank you for the tips, i'm going to try making the lights more interesting before i post the map, also, thank you so much for your mapping videos, they helped me a lot and i'm glad i joined this community, the process is so much fun and trenchbroom is so easy and intuitive, it was really a great experience, and after i finish this map i already have ideas for more maps. 

You're very welcome. I am glad you find them useful. Welcome to your new obsession! Glad you are hooked! 

i tweaked a bit the lights and i "finished" the map, i have some more screenshots to share and i wondered if some peolple wanted to playtest the map before i post it definitely

Yeah happy to playtest. You can email it to me or post a link here.

Pretty screenies! 

I finished my first map with the help of dumptruck_ds and some nice people at the quake mapping discord, this was an amazing experience and i'm really looking into making another map using the things i learned and learning new stuff

This one is just a cool alien-looking tower in a purple landscape:

WOW!

Are these maps ready for a release? Can't wait to play them! 

 

They're not maps AFAIK, Makkon is demonstrating texture use. 

This is my second map, it's runic theme, i'm not really happy with how it turned out but i want to work on other proyects so i'm going to release it like this, the map is made with copper in mind so use copper, i hope you like it, thanks for welcoming me into this amazing community!

I tried your map, but there's apparently a problem with the first door, which stays closed even after pressing the button above it. I had to use noclip to continue. Unless there's something that I missed? 

I forgot to say that I played your map with QS Spiked, and the map were placed in the id1/maps directory. 

you need to place the map in the copper/maps folder, it's a copper map 

You're encouraged to submit a news post for 'final' map releases (this thread is more for the beta versions before release.)

I made one for you this time: https://www.celephais.net/board/view_thread.php?id=62190 

thanks, i didn't know if i was supposed to make a news post. 

I made a new sitepage with models I made the last years. All titles are for download and you can feel free to use them as custom in maps. I added most of the qc files, as far as there is no change in other depending ones.

I will try to update as much as I can, because the count of them becomes to large to hold.
:P

MadFox Q1 Models 

Great new Madfox. I'll update the video description.
