this is your map's testing channel! Post map updates here and remember to follow our mapper rules: https://ddnet.org/rules
what is cps
second map is missing cps
why
remove blue layer
time cps are these numbers. Add them from 1 to x through your map, so you will touch them in your playthrough to show the player how fast he is in comparison to his best time
also about shields: Place them with one free space between them. Looks better and more overview and still works. Use normal shields if there is no special reason to use the weapon specified shields (i.g. in the first part)
ik it buuut... it doesnt working cuz i can just save shotgun then
what is blue layer??
oh
top grass?
sad
but its my decoration
you cannot keep a weapon if shields are placed every second tile
okay
if the layer is marked blue it means its not used anywhere in the map
ohhh
okay
ill try it
also 2,2mb is quite big. I think Ravie can help in scaling that down. Especially on such a small map
okay, when is Ravie can help?
oh okay
idk, he will probably see it himself
okay
ill change the map and i will waiting Ravie
Thank u
Sorry for ping but i have question
so i need to turn this
into this?
changed that
Here is it
what
where is it
did that
buut where is cps missing now
ohhh i understand
im fool
HOORAY
lemme make a few changes
Here is it
noo, i dont talk about stoppers, i talk about shields lol
ohhh
okay
i do shields
not all
But this is more beautiful
than this
Remember to put decoration on HD
im absolutely not talking about these tiles?xd
this is shields and u dont need the special shields there
the white shields like that
they will remove any kind of weapon u have
Corner
Here's a better alternative to the stopper design:
Don't place freeze in tele
Ik it I'm was sleepy when I was mapping
Ill fix it later cuz I'm on other laptop now
In one hour I'll send map maybe
Here is it
again
Sorry for ping but i need ur help in my map
here is the problem
don't worry about it for now, one of us will optimize the file size if we decide it's gonna be released
Ohh thank for all testers ^^
XD i thought u was talking about these shields bruhhh
these are stoppers, not shields
Oh
Hi all! i'm new here
i think that is not the map
Why
becayse it doesnt have the checks
Hello! I wouldn’t come to these channels if you’re not familiar with the creation of testing and mapping :D
Idk what that means
Ok
What is checks?
Just upload it again…
oh
sorry Arrow
now?
Yep
good
who can optimize it?
cuz 2.2 mb is big value
$optimize
2.1
-100mb maybe good
I haven’t test your map but you need to low the weight of the file
but i dont know how to low it
how i can do this?
i think in my map is good design
I watched the preview and your map doesn’t look like a 2mb map
maybe
maybe it just a unused tiles
oh
i deleted they
Y
its a short map but why 2.1 mb
at all i dont know how to low it
Take your map and use the tool extract map that is on the same document as ddracenetwork then it will download all the mapres that you used and you will see the main problems with the kb
oh
but if my map will delete?
im afraid
No it won’t xd….
oh okay sorry
globe shaped lamps nearly 1mb
whoa
its so much
i need to delete it?
the generic too, its bcs glow i guess
sooo can i delete glow bulbs?
oh
globe shaped lamps are 2048x2048
bruhhhh
didnt know that
then deleting?
or i can just minimalize that
pixelization
or what is it
lmao
u used the lamps 3 times in the map
yep
wont make a big difference
oh
then deleting it...
the grass main too
u used rly rare
also u used 2x freeze tilesets
try to work with one
but how?
i have tele, freeze and other freeze (decoration for markers on map)
yes u can use the same for all
if u need only one tile from other sets, just cut it out and copy it to the other tileset
u used ddnet tiles only for start/finish line
yep
i dont know how to use photoshop and i dont have it
sad
1 spawn on the ground are enough in solo maps
okay
lemme change it
other way is just delete all u dont need
i deleted alr
1mb for map is good?
but add the sets after editing again
wait
lemme send it
maybe its good
woah
a littel bit less than 1mb
is that good or no?
u can jump over here
u can use edge here to go directly down
that part was awful to play
last part cheatable
for ur first map its good, but the map is not interesting at all
often u used weapons for one move, try to work more with weapons
i think u should take a deeper look at the solo section and play some maps there
also try to balance ur map
design was ok
u should start a completely new map
$decline
it's boring
the start looked very promising last part is bad , you just added it because you didn't had ideas i think
need to create and test it more , more varietions of parts and it will be good !
