This is a prelude to something I've had planned for quite some time, but never gotten around to finishing it. I'm needing people to post the first thing they made when mapping. For most people this would be a box map, unfinished level geometry, your own version of the HEK Tutorial map, etc. I'm looking for good examples of showing how far people have come along over the past four or five years.

Only post the first thing you've made in the form of images or a link to halomaps. Dont waste my time posting newer stuff.

First texture I ever painted, was what got me into CMT:

Lag gave it to me as a test. I was joking and didn't actually know how to do much at all in photoshop, so this was all done with mainly dodge and burn, the bucket and a 1 pixel brush.

This was my map that was supposed to be based off of the battle room in Ender's Game. I tried to make it weightless- but it just ended up being a very confusing, very dark, matrix creek style map with super jump on. The horizontal jump across the map were pretty epic though. I never got the stun guns the work either...

WOL, I'm sure it's first ANYTHING ever related to mapping for Halo, Source, Cryengine, or Unreal.

I can't find my CD o' Betas™ that has my first map ever for Halo on it, but it was just a flat asphalt plane with a concrete wall built around it, and the shaders had no bump maps or anything on them. The "bases" were a bunch of large human barricades with one of each vehicle right "outside" of them. Oh, and in typical mapping nub fashion, I laid down actual weapons instead of netgame equipment. Weapons disappeared after 30 seconds and never respawned. :lol: I still can't do much better than that on my own; all I can do is work with existing geometry.

As for a weapon, I tried making a Desert Eagle. End result? Two extruded splines that made up blocks I was ashamed to call the slide and grip. :downs:

Those where my first of everything :)
Oddly enough, I don't think I have ever released anything to the public, most of my maps/tags stayed in my HD and where lost (including the tiny bronco, highwind, humvee, the Hardy Daytona [That bike that Cloud drives during that moto chase], a Mako reactor map, a few pistols and riffles, and some other stuff I can't remember). There is one secret map that was released that I told someone else to take the whole credit for it, but it wasn't that good anyways.

No, clearly it's Con-Scars because he's emo :mad:

Also, the only things I ever made for Halo were PC mods, usually in the interest of making the weapon set as different from stock Halo as humanly possible. I didn't ever do anything groundbreaking, but everybody who tried my mods said they were fun.

As for Source, I've made a couple of box maps for Half-Life 2 but haven't had the patience to fully learn Hammer.

hmm... first model I don't really remember, they were all milkshape-remodels for halo pc... I can't really recall the first model I ever made that used edit mesh or edit poly.

As for my first map that I got ingame, it was a plane, with a small hill in the middle, with the tutorial ground bitmap placed on it.

Where I went from there to be honest I don't fully remember. There were some other projects, with not much more improvement... I actually might MIGHT be able to find a drawing/sketch of the first layout/map idea I ever came up with and wanted to make. It was like, a big canyon, about as tall as the ones from assault on the control room, but desert themed, with a large forerunner structure in the middle, that spanned from the canyon floor to the top. It was actually really weird now that I think about it... After that I was obsessed with a city themed map, but never really succeeded in making one.

I jumped from idea to idea, mostly just to practice my modeling because I was pretty aware most of my models sucked ass... First ever released map was a beta of some stupid map that took place on a very poorly modeled highway, surrounded by a very poorly modeled city, and poorly made environment lol, theres the link lol.. the pictures make no sense http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=1461 and the highway texture was clearly made using a screen shot from halo 2 trailers.

I've actually never made a WIP thread for anything simply because I realize that I very rarely ever stick to one project, and I don't want to post pictures of something when it will probably never be released.

First map I ever made ever. I could probably do much better now, but seeing as both Gmax and 3ds Max hate me, I won't be modeling any time in the near future. I also made an Assault Carbine, but it just ended up being a box with extrudes and connections of primitives. It looked cool in first person though.

Here's a picture I dug up from several months ago of it:

I deleted the first map I got into sapien - it was a simple figure 8 interior - but here's the one and only map I uploaded. Who doesn't love a BG mod? :D

It was fun, portalling for rain vertically, and adding underground tunnels from the bases to a scaled up put-put room in between, with vehicle teleports to the edges of the map. And climbable trees, welded to the bsp. Interesting portalling expierience.

Some remote searching via my younger brother, and I found the actual models on my home computer.

Screenies as soon as I figure out how to get gmax from biting my head off.

Edit: Here's some:

A closer look at the midcanyon base entrance.

the model isn't mine. it's a low res open source i found. if u look at the top right corner, the modeler's name is given.

That doesn't look too bad for a first. If you fixed it up now, that would be awesome. :D

I was just browsing the WIPs thread a minute ago, and I was all ready to post my dislike of ^that, but then I remembered which thread this is. Damn, that's pretty good for a first model/render.

Ooh, can I show off my first attempt at terrain modeling?

http://www.spacebrick.net/pictures/gallery/savanah.jpg

Amazing, rite? Lemme tell you the secret to how I made it:
Hose primitive -> stretch -> Tesselate -> noise -> bend -> more noise

Clever, rite? :O

Not sure, but if he still has the maxfile, he should rerender it so I can actually see it without all that blur. <_<
