Today I restarted my addiction again by playing CS. But what is a AIM map. Because it looks fun to make such a map.
So can you guys tell me what is needed for a good AIM map, because I need a new challenge.

How to make a good aim_ map:
- Destroy all creative areas of brain;
- Cut off all but one finger;
- Use Worldcraft 2.2;
- Suck.

So these kind of maps are for losers I presume..? And there is no challenge in making those kind of maps, looking at seventh's post.
But why are there a lot of AIM servers..?

Yeah, they're not exactly highly regarded by mappers - nor most players.
Server admins with poor taste.

A map is a peice art, treat it as such.

Not all maps are pieces of art though - in fact, most of them aren't.
But they SHOULD BE, which is the point we must get through all peoples heads.
prepares some kind of mechanism to brainwash all n00bz.

Hehe,
I think it's clear now. I just wanted to know.
But one more question: what's AWP..? (just like AIM_?)

Worse than aim. Basically an AIM map with only AWPs.

AWPs rock except you don't have to have any skill to use them now.

But why are there a lot of AIM servers..?
They are just boxes with occasional objects in the way.
There are so many AIM servers because alot of people prefer to play tiny maps with 2 weapons, instead of quality maps, where you actually have to have skill or learn the map, where as AIM maps...well what is there to learn about a box with 2 huge objects in?
I strongly advise you against making AIM maps, not even if you are a complete newb to mapping.

LOL @ HAbboi
I'm not new to mapping but I can't find something to map that keeps me working on the map. Most of my maps are completed with: alt + F4 > do you want to save this? NO
So that's why I wanted know about those other map 'styles'. But I think I want to live longer .

I feel same way but if you get bored then map something else and work on it later!
Do you think half the mappers here spend their whole life on one map

You're right about that. But I haven't finished a single map :S . My mapping dir on my pc is 168 Mb.... I just start over and over.
I just lost my imagination I think. Because when I have a good idea, I just start to map and then it get's boring. And then follows the procedure you allready know .

Keep mapping AIM maps if you are struggling for ideas - JUST DON'T RELEASE THEM OR SHOW THEM TO ANYONE. ;D

aim maps get boring very fast. not to mention that they are all exactly the same except different names and textures.

Post #92508
Exactly - there are about 50 million different maps out there with the exact same gameplay as each other.
Even if the look good (like Striders CS:S map, I forget the name), they still play the same, and are really boring. I really don't like them.

cs_office is my favorit. Because it's close to reality. That are the kind of maps that I like.

I think the simpleness of office makes it quite fun, and the fact that it's all roughly on one level.
