Blaze's Map WIP Thread

[Mr. X]

Yes:  Make it smaller.

[Max]

I don't mind if it's big, as long as it's easy to navigate. What I mean by this is that areas don't look the same, because it's easier to get lost in a maze of grey corridors than a mix of well, everything.

[Mr. X]

But still, there is a certain point where the map is so big that even with the maximum number of players in a match possible, it's still going to be hard to find somebody.

[Blaze Yeager]

But i need some specific things,it is a city stage indeed,but i need to know what i should keep,& what should i get a-rid of?

I want to at least make it around maybe the size of Dark Man Castle

[squidgy617]

That sounds okay, the size of Darkman castle.

Are you planning to use a city tileset? Like, you know, the city at the beginning of MM2? I'd really love to see a bunch of buildings and stuff, and your characters wandering around the city streets. I'd get that for sure.

[Mr. X]

Yeah, as long as it's close to the size of the stages in the actual game, that's fine.  Going way larger than that is over the top.

Yeah,but i still want to keep a city aspect for it

[Mr. X]

You can.  If you limit it to, let's say, 9 city blocks or a bit less, you should be able to keep it reasonably sized.

Hmm...i'm stumped by what the size of a city block is @_@

[Mr. X]

Eh, just go with a maximum size of 8000 by 8000 in Doom Builder, maybe less.  That's about 4 times the size of my entire Blade Man stage (4000 by 4000).

Expect A Map Coming Soon Folks...It'll be out Friday Night

So Until Then Speculate Here

[squidgy617]

Too bad no one will notice because that's when the game comes out Still, at least there'll be more maps for when everyone's sick of the maps in the full version (Okay, well, that might not happen...)
