Let's tell Activision we want new maps for COD4

[EmtHipple]

Well so that this idea doesnt die out or get forgotten while we ( mostly me ) learn how to build maps, I went ahead and browsed around the COD world and came across some maps on fileplanet that we might be able to at least get the server up and running with while we make more. Let me know what you think about using them ( I hope I load them right   )

 

 

see told you I'm a noob lol, the files are to big to load on here like this, so HELP, how do I go about getting the files on here so we can use them

Ok since I'm a noob to all this media cloud stuff too, here goes nothing ( I hope this gets easier, I don't remember modding TES to be this bad)

Currently downloading the modtools package, going to try my hand at some basic stuff, maybe we can work together and get a real map built, whether or not it's as pretty as the official ones.

thanks. looking forward to seeing what maps you come up with.

Adding on to something you said Dddrgn, While working on maps for the Marathon game, I found that making it look pretty doesn't matter as much as making sure the map functions properly. I'm sure you know this, but just offering that it's best not to set your sights so high in starting out, and that game-play is more important than the visuals. (ha, can't believe I'm writing that, as I make my living on making visuals!)  
Since I don't have a PC and can't play at the map modding, I'll throw this idea out there... I'd love to see a level that has a LOT of different height levels, Like a bunch of shipping containers, or maybe like an apartment building. Funny that COD has tons of balconies on their maps, yet 95% of them you can't get to. Anyway, just a thought.

i just have a feeling we should make a team and design some maps now because now my brain is sparked with idea's and concepts for maps lol

we could make a new forum topic devoted to map making tips and ideas

I have played on two servers that feature slightly modded maps of the original cod4 maps.  I think I posted this on here once before.

It was absolutely great having the other parts of the maps opened up a little.

[Pepsi]

ya smoke you can modify the existing maps as well just have to open them up thats all it'd be a fun experience and a good thing to have under peoples belts too because they are always looking for map creators and mod makers

[Spyderwebber]

I'd be interested in checking this out as well.  Way back when, on a very old game called Half-Life, we had some custom MP maps that werwe awesome.  Crudely designed but fun all the same. 

[krosan]

Sounds good!

 

They won't do it though :§

[Pepsi]

no we just have to find people willing to program and design maps and mods for us and we would be set

[Brig]

if there r some completely unique maps it may be fun
