thanks, I feel welcome. for a more formal introduction;
I have been on steam for 6 years and have been mapping for about 5. my earliest maps have been lost in time so don't ask about them ever. they were horrible but I learned from every one of them. I mostly do layouts and brushwork but am pushing myself to do a lot more detailing than previously. I even have a method to the madness too. currently I am working on wake island for tf2 but there are no good tf2 beach textures. I was able to compile it once and it took my PC a couple of hours on fast. keep it noted that there are no buildings yet so I'll need a bit of help fully compiling. I use a laptop with 4 GB of ram so map size is somewhat a problem for me as well as play-testing, since I don't get good latency on mobile networks. currently I am going to a Jewish post high school learning program so basically I learn about the origins of all laws, how to be a better person, and about real angels and demons. I make chainmaile and have a suit of armour so far that covers my chest and abdomen. I am a decent chef and can work my way around any kitchen.
I would like to know what I must do in order to post maps to this forum
