Hi, my names Tyler, or Craze_Havoc (steam id). I've been playing Team Fortress 2 for a little while now, and have been thoroughly enjoying the many custom maps I've played on, so it wasn't long before I wanted to create my own ;) I had never used hammer before so I've been using the many tutorials on this site, and even downloaded "The Ultimate Mapping Resource Pack". Since I usually snipe when playing TF2, I decided my first map would have a "sniper theme", and be built to benefit the sniper. I finished the blueprints for the map last night, and I would post it here, but I don't think this is the right place for it, and I'm a little paranoid that it might get stolen (is that weird :S). Well, I'm looking forward to getting to know some of you, and being a part of this community. Peace.

Hi there! :) Your map getting stolen? I doubt that, the only thing that might be stolen is the name since you can't have two maps with the same name but anyways, welcome aboard!

First off, Welcome!

Heh. Backlot got "stolen" ... it was a couple days of annoyance to get it all straightened out. I have since then put the anti-decompiler brushes in the map (as in, the weird brushes that stop a certain part of the decompiler... its not 100% unable to be decompiled, BUT it will stop it from being posted on Gamebanana or some equivalent site)

I have yet to finish the map itself, I have only finished the blueprints/design, and that's what I'm worried about being stolen, which seems kinda silly now that I look back on it. It would probably be a good idea to post the design, and get some feed back on some things I could change or improve before I actually start the map. If someone could direct me to the right section of the forums it would be appreciated, as I know some people don't like it when you post things in the wrong place. :p

Honestly, it'll be best if you build it and have something for people to run around, then post it on the Maps Showcase sub-forum (make sure to read all the sub-forum rules, etc etc). You'll get better feedback that way than just a 2D sheet of paper.
