Those are 2D skyboxes. 3D skyboxes are the projected illusions outside map bounds that make maps look bigger than they are.This is a list of a ton of skyboxes from various official valve maps.
I think this is what he was talking about? because, If he was talking about those types of skyboxes, there pretty hard, and judging by the first map, he doesnt have much experience. not enough to, (In my opinion) use those types of skyboxes... hell, i dont even use those things, and im... not... really... the... best... at... you know what? you get the point...
no... what you were posting a thread about was making land and other area inside of the 3d skybox. what i was talking about was a sky that seemingly goes on forever...Those are 2D skyboxes. 3D skyboxes are the projected illusions outside map bounds that make maps look bigger than they are.
I meant what sooshey told me, thanks sooshey.no... what you were posting a thread about was making land and other area inside of the 3d skybox. what i was talking about was a sky that seemingly goes on forever...
This...is a pretty unfair assumption to make of someone. A new mapper could definitely learn 3D skyboxes if they're committed enough and have the right guidance. Instead of doubting others, why don't you help them as best you can?judging by the first map, he doesnt have much experience. not enough to, (In my opinion) use those types of skyboxes...
That is the actual technical definition of a 3D skybox.no... what you were posting a thread about was making land and other area inside of the 3d skybox. what i was talking about was a sky that seemingly goes on forever...
whelp... I tried... time to go join america again... anyone got the bleach?I meant what sooshey told me, thanks sooshey.
I had that thought originally... I recommend sticking with it. maybe, (If your dream is like mine, and it hasn't been shattered yet) you'll be among the big guys. like CRASH, frozen, and even killohurtz up there. if you keep at it, nothing can stop you. stick with it lol... don't abandon ship before you've even gotten a small taste of mapping.Eh, thanks for helping guys but I don't think I wanna try mapping anymore, its really time consuming and I usually RARELY make anything good or worth while, but thanks guys.
That mindset wont get you anywhere. drop the mindset, and start thinking positively. this is mapping were talking about here. it takes hours to get good (Well, much more) and if you stop before your first map is even close to a decent map, you aren't doing anything.Well I don't usually think positive so I dont usually stay with something for long, if it isn't good first few times I just give up, only on like virtual stuff though, but I don't know man, I've removed my cratefactory map already, i was beggining a v3 to crate factory which I was just gonna redo the entire thing with more routes and scenery, but i don't basically a drop of motivation to do it at this point.
Nah, i'm sorry but i think i'll just review maps from this part on, thanks for trying to encourage me but I don't find map making fun that muchThat mindset wont get you anywhere. drop the mindset, and start thinking positively. this is mapping were talking about here. it takes hours to get good (Well, much more) and if you stop before your first map is even close to a decent map, you aren't doing anything.
"Whelp, thats three hours of my life wasted (More like 4 years of life... amiright?)" but maybe it isn't wasted. get out there, and make a map. dont make that time wasted.
Ive also heard that people work best under deadlines... i give you till the end of the week to make a functioning A1 map.
GO!
well... im not very persuasive from this point on... any more experienced mappers want to join in?Nah, i'm sorry but i think i'll just review maps from this part on, thanks for trying to encourage me but I don't find map making fun that much
I think you should just drop it. Let people make their own decisions.well... im not very persuasive from this point on... any more experienced mappers want to join in?
it just... doesnt feel right... you know?I think you should just drop it. Let people make their own decisions.
