Few why you gotta shoot me down ;;

This thread is about 1 thing: fan made maps that can be easily put in game. I'm just trying to prevent everyone from suggesting new mechanics, railroading this thread, and then making this thread pointless :(

I think players will move like that and the main fight being here or here.

Conjuration everywhere too...

@+Supergrunt nice, that was what i was gonna add to my 'unfinished' map info. This can teach beginners where is the most suitable place to go (the main area)
Btw, What app did you use for editing this?

@Fewfre i will start editing the map info

@Cheddarfist: In my post 'Solid' refers to blocks on the map, while 'walkable' refers to no blocks. So when making the foreground image, any transparent area is an area without blocks, while a pixel with any amount of opaqueness is a normal block.

It's not for beginners, it's just the path the players will take, with possible fights here.

I use Paint.Net.

A pain ? It's very easy.

Roughly Drawn concept, image may be small...



So basically the red dot is red spawn, blue dot is blue spawn. The grey box up top would be the area that blue has to defend and red has to take over. The concept is just a sort of king of the hill map.

You could use blocks to actually structure something you need to stand on after the temple gets broken (as it would obviously get destroyed one way or another, c4s and all that). The importance of the structure would count because it needs to be thick enough so that small shots wouldn't destroy it completely.

Of course that is also a con, the map relies very heavily on conjuring blocks.

From what I'm able to see, only the top need conjuration, the whole thing isn't flat (walls) ...

All maps "relies very heavily on conjuration" because it's random pictures.

Huh, I'm surprised we don't already have a map like this. Good idea :) Any chance you'd be willing to turn it into a Fortoresse-compatible map?

Don't need to be the same map (I think the stone thing himself is too high) , just the idea, it's easy : some kind of hill at the middle.

That what I meant by turn it into a Fortoresse-compatible map. Make it the right size / style.

The only thing we need now is being able to make maps and load them in custom rooms (like Forteresse) and unbreakable maps... tons of fun with that...

Before I do any shading thus make it a pain to change, does anyone have any thoughts on this "icy cavern" VIP map?

Many people will go right down to bottom center, and even for those who don't and go to the top, many will funnel down right into the mass of people fighting bellow. as the top of the map gets destroyed. The bottom corners of the maps have some little caverns for the heck of it. This wasn't my "panned" 3rd map, but meh.

Nice fewfre, very creative!

Editing my map in a month time probs, internet problems

I look forward to it! :)

I'm thinking I'll attempt to submit the maps to Atelier 801 by/in June. That way they will hopefully be in for most of the summer.

VIP - Cavern [10 May 2015]
Dimensions: 300x120px
Imgur Album
This is an "ice" / cavern themed map, where each VIP starts on either end of the map. Many people will go right down to bottom center, and even for those who don't and go to the top and dig across the top, many will funnel down right into the mass of people fighting bellow as the top of the map gets destroyed from fighting. The bottom corners of the maps have some little caverns for the heck of it, and making it easier to dig tunnels for those that wish to.

Domination - Chase [10 May 2015]
Dimensions: 300x108px
Imgur Album
An attempt to have a "fair" domination map where 1 team starts out above the other. I have a filled in area between the spawns, with an easy way for the below team to go up and to the left to retreat. For above, while the "pros" will do whatever they want, the beginners can follow the path, and be potentially ambushed by the team below, taking away part of the "advantage" given by the team on top (except for those smart enough to dig).

Domination/VIP (not a submission)
This mock-up is a bit old, mostly because making it seems like a pain. This is supposed to be a spaceship, with the cargo hold door open, and a bunch of stuff falling out (the grey circles are items, not meteoroids). My "plan" would be for the items to be Transformice shaman / shop items. and maybe the currency each game uses. I kinda want this to be a VIP map, but I think it would conflict a bit to much with the candy map's "random stuff everywhere" idea, so it would probably be best as a Domination map. The 2 purple squares (left of red circle, right of dark red square) are the spawns, and the black and dark blue would be movable area.

And yes, I am bad at making backgrounds =p Especially backgrounds that are more than a single color (with some blurring) without making it too distracting.

---

Edit: I also added an "ideas" tab to show images people have made even if they aren't the right size / don't have a separate background/foreground.

Edit2: I am submitting the thread on June 1st, so please post any submissions before then (I will still update article after that, but there will be even less guarantee than there already is that it will be seen / added).

Edit3: Two more map ideas: a meteor / volcano map, and a pool table (with the balls and pool cue being collidable).

Flag (1) - Volcano [19 May 2015]
By: fewfre
Dimensions: 300x108px
Imgur Album
This is a single Flag map with muted color for the background, and brighter reds / dark colors for the foreground. Top left purple is attacking team, bottom right blue is the defending. Initially the attacking team has the higher ground, but as the ground gets shot up they will fall below were they have to walk up just like defending team. Optionally, the defending team could start on the right side of the screen near the top.

Use that and edit your comment (the very first) , the other part is just for the name.

Not really sure what you mean.

And it is similar now that you mention it; I was originally aiming to have both spawns at top, with lava at the bottom, so I didn't really consider that when I was started it.
