no maps no fun

Post by montetank »

Where are some new maps/ map makers? Absolutely nothing happend. New maps are the most important thing in the forum. IMO. So-I will take some time, to create 3-4 new maps in clas. style.
Would be nice to know, what kind of maps are needed (how many players). New ideas are welcome.
Attention: I will NOT make flat high oil NTW Maps. Never.


PS: I am now for many years here in the forum. Can someone tell me, what this NTW is standing for? :lol2: O_o
In case the WZ-game ends in a draw , the game winner will be determined by penalty shoot-out.

Not sure if you're serious about this or not :) . NTW = New Team War. NTW epitomizes the notion of a flat map with all of the oil in your base. NTW refers to the NTW map but also generally refers to any flat map with 30+ oils in your base.

The original Teamwar map was made in 2000 by WCS_Armageddon and was 30 oils. New Teamwar didn't come for many years later, sometime after 2004 I think and the only difference is that it was 40 oils and added terrain dividers (walls) in between the bases. I think 8 generators was max in 1.10 unless a map started off with more. I don't know who made NTW, I think it may have been Delphinio?

Teamwar had 20 oils per base, was smaler than NTW and had a few "Mountains" on it.
NTW was completely flat with 30 oils per base, coz 30 was max in v1.10 (not 8 power gen.). It was built by LPC_Actinia!
NTW v2 ist my map with still 30 oils. I built it in 2007 and still for v1.10.
But it wasn't completely flat anymore rather it had this form:
II‾‾‾‾I‾‾‾‾I‾‾‾‾I‾‾‾‾II
II___________II
\\__________///
\\\_________///
III_________III
III_________III
///_________\\\
//__________\\\
II___________II
I__I___I___I__II
Some map pirates toke my map and made 40 oil versions of it.
The most known version is possibly "NTWMax2" ...

I love this game, and would love to make new maps. I have two issues, though. My computer(which can't run any mapmaking stuff) and time(self-explanatory). Sometime in the future, I plan on making maps though.
