-don't think that you can create a mod after you created only a couple of mapsWell said. Thank you.
-use a lot of textures on each map, to give them varietyBut try and keep a distinct theme to the map. For example, don't mix fifties floors with the tnnl walls. Look back at places like Office complex. They have a few changes in style, like the freezer and guard area where you can pick up the shotgun, but they have one distinct style which makes you feel like youre in some office complex. There are elements of the fifties theme in even the industrial areas. With practice, you can master this technique of mixing styles.
before asking a question try to find out the awnser yourself (learned the hard way)
wat doese milter mean?Did you try and find out the answer yourself? Look what the dictionary says:
miterIt means to make a 45* angle on your corners, in mappers' terms. Some people seem to think it reduces lag.
Mi"ter, Mitre Mi"tre, v. t. [imp. & p. p. Miteredor Mitred; p. pr. & vb. n. Miteringor Mitring.] 1. To place a miter upon; to adorn with a miter. ``Mitered locks.'' --Milton.
2. To match together, as two pieces of molding or brass rule on a line bisecting the angle of junction; to bevel the ends or edges of, for the purpose of matching together at an angle.
Do not use the carve tool, or the hollow tool, unless you are looking for leaks and make a skybox around your map.im sry put i carve (sometimes) and havn't found not 1 leak, i don't know wat u guys r talking about
-try not use the bog standard WADS its not hard to make new onesIt's hard to make good ones though. Luckily there are custom wads available on the web, and if you're lucky, maybe one of your friends happens to be a texture artist...
-Carving is ok only in a perfect situation, it's a part of hammer and can be a valuable tool, learn how to use it properly.It's an obsolete tool since the Clipping tool can give the same results while keeping your map easier to mantain, and it's easier to avoid problems with the Clipping tool where they would occasionally happen during Carving.
