Possibly try my hand at this
« on: Wednesday, May 16, 2012, 15:40:53 PM »
Hey, I was wondering if there was any way I might be able to try my hand at map making. I might be able to make a few good maps from what I have in mind already. Im not sure if I'm allowed but I kinda wanna try it. If someone could get back to me on this issue, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,
Marine Recruit Patton

I'm pretty pleased with both Max's recent work in the 2.8 editor and seeing some interest from other people. More custom maps is good, everyone has huge amounts of storage... I personally wouldn't object to having a few gigs of AA maps :)

I think it's over 2GB, I doubt anyone would want to do that no matter how nice you are :) Check for torrents of 2.8.5

Might look bigger, but it aint.....

Try this: http://chevys-place.game-server.cc/AA2.php

You only need 2.8.3. You are not required to install all the patches :)

Learn the basics first, then try making your own map.

Here's a good resource to follow http://www.angelmapper.com/gamedev/tutorials/beginner1.htm

You can peek at other maps, but it might be overwhelming if you don't know how to maneuver the interface.
