Officially my first post, To do or not to do Options

[Scorch]

Ok, this is officially my first post. Since I am reletively new to Tib Sun modding and all, I need to ask a question or two.

First, I have been working on a new map, my remake of Cityscape, and I was wondering if in my next few posts I should start talking about it and showing you all in-game pics. Should I eventually release the map, or should I not? I want to, for I have some friends who all think it looks good.

Second, I need people to give ideas about good ambient lighting. I need someone to give the all the info for it too.


P.S.
If someone could tell me how to download and then PLAY the maps that others have made, (tell me the entire process of where the maps should go and everything) that would be great.

This is in reply to ALOT. First, what CrashKing said about the cliffs. I have seen many maps before, many with the repeating cliffs. I find that very annoying, and it shows that perople did not put in alot of work or just didnt care. I want to play maps for the detail and the experiece, I wouldnt mess that up with MY maps.

I Like you already.

In response to what Aro said... Wha.....?

What eXit said in his post about screenshots was aimed towards me and Ixith, cause as far as I'm aware, We're the only mappers on this website that have a habbit of putting screenshots in the download.

Umm, Ignore the above. Now, what I said about the map, I will explain now. I have done too much to the map, it really isnt what I wanted it to be, and I dont like it. (Yeah, I base my maps on what I think, I just wanted to get a few ideas. An yes, I hate it when maps look... weird). I have started a new map, whcih I am calling Territory Wars. It will be a four player map where each player has an easy to defend position. Tiberium wil be limited though, and players must later on send their harvesters out of their protective bases, leaving them exposed. The key to winning in this map will be, well, starving your enemy of resources.

First of all, what exactly do you mean by "Weird"? Secondly, The idea's of tactical maps are great in my opinion and they require alot more thought than just random made maps that focus on making things look realistic. One of the best maps I've ever seen was one where it was tactical, like Terrace but really nicely detailed (I'm not saying the map name because a certain someone will get a big arrogant about it ). Hopefully you can produce something like that. I'm looking forward to seeing what you produce.

I have already started, but I am having troubles with tunnels. I have already assked Bittah Commander on Wagnerma.de where we having been, "talking", for a week or two now. He has been a great help. Now, I am in the U.S., so I probably wont get an immediate response. If anyone can help me now though... I would be very appreciative.

What kind of problem? There are two tutorials on tunnels.
This is a tutorial on fixing the tunnels.
This is a tutorial on tunnel curves.
