Welcome to the Map Editor Subforum!

This subforum is used for showing off your maps, for help with mapmaking and for general discussion of all things related to the map editor.

Feel free to show your maps off in this subforum, however before making your own thread make sure you have five exported maps. For anything less, you may use this thread to show off your maps, as well as discuss and view other people's maps.

If you require help with your maps, you can view the various guides on map making available as well as posting all questions map-related in the Map Editor Q&A. You may also write up your own guides and share any new techniques/glitches you may have discovered.

Rules and guidelines

1. One thread per user
Please keep all your maps in one thread. Do not make multiple threads for different maps.


2. A minimum of 3 exported maps is necessary to make your own thread
If you have less than 3, post them in the Show Off Your Map thread until you build up enough maps to make your own thread.


3. Do not make question threads
If you have a question please use the Map Q&A thread.


4. Do not advertise your maps in another persons thread
It is rude and inconsiderate to hijack someone elses thread to show off your own maps. Please keep your maps to your own map thread.


5. Screen shots are not required, but are preferred
You do not have to provide screen shot previews of your maps, but most members appreciate it when you do.


6. If you wish to hold a map contest, clear it with a sentinel first.
Run the details of your contest by a sentinel first for permission, otherwise your thread will be locked.
