I have plenty of understanding thank you, what i said was exactly that, to my perception you have bitched at me to make something pretty before it is functional where as i was working on the basic outlay and make it somewhat functional but apparently that isnt the way to do things according to you that is.
We do use terragen's for the beauty of the terrain;however, we define all playable areas on our own. I don't see how you could think a mountainous region would be a gameplay zone,Because its pretty clear from some of the presets in geocontrol 2 that a fair few of the playable areas were edited presets such as the desert map, it looks like so far you made a desert and then slapped a few pyramids in there, i've not seen all that much cover or other gameplay devices in your screenshots, plenty of little lasers and missles but no cover. it's for scenic beauty. With the scale of a mod we have you'd know why such assets would be needed, but you're obviously too ignorant for this field of work.Yeah right carry on thinking that kid, im getting tired of your elitist attitude and blatent disreguard in the fact that you know very little about what possible lengths ive actualy gone to learn more information in this field, but go ahead make me laugh carry on with your loittle charade. You need to know the level editing tools in and out to make something of good quality, pressing one button in a terrain generating program won't make you a level.
I never said that did now did i?
I've mentioned several times so far i've made several revisions on paper of what i am aiming for including perspective concept art as well as overview concepts.

I posted this thread to announce i was actualy going to make a mod for crysis after spending a fair bit of time making other maps and mods in crysis but learning from them with trial and error, so please don't think this is the first i've done and it certainly is not your generic "box map" or "first map".

I don't know how your mind is functioning, but you're obviously not cut out for this field of work.Unless you did any kind of psychology i don't think you know for certain how anyones minds work so you are in no position to say who is cut out and who is not. I pointed you in the right direction and you try to make quick jabs at me as if to you knew what the hell you're doing, when infact, you don't.
I know alot more of what im doing than your giving me credance for, instead of trying to compare my stuff to yours how about you get off your high horse, you said my map was starting to look like one of the hundreds of jungle maps sure sign that you have no idea of what the fuck im aiming for.

I don't know what Dane is getting at.
As i said i wont be showing any more level shots for a while untill i've got alot more done but the map will be done with alot more detail and alot more finesse.
What i am aiming for is more like this;

Forerunners carvec out parts of the crater walls and planted several research and communication installations.
I am still deciding wherther to link all the installations with a series of teleporters to add some more diversity and the population counts for players would be between 8-16 players.
However it could very well play well with higher numbers, i seem to remember the player limit for crysis is 32 but i wont go that high as this is more mid range numbers.
I would if i could upload the concept work i've done to show more detail on what i have planned but the bluetooth dongle i have dosn't work so i cant take a shot with my phone and the scanner i've got wont work either.
I do not mean to offend you mech, but you seem very intent on trying to be as condecending as you can possibly be and i won't accept that attitude as it help's no one in any way at all.
If you really want to help then please, don't assume you know what i've done in preparation on working on this mod because it makes you look like an ass and it makes me have to correct you.
If you wish to help, then please, tell me how to change time of days to static, i've looked it up on crymod and cannot find how to change skies from dynamic to static, i know how to set the time of day up but i cannot find anywhere the setting for changing to dynamic unless its locked for one reason or another.
If you could tell me that, then that would be a great start.
If you have an instant messenger send me a pm if you want and we can continue this conversation over that, much more faster and much more efficient and less formal.
