I didn't want to go thread crazy so I just edited my one about the picture question.

I'm wanting to make a DOD:S map, I have been mapping since cs 1.3 and have yet to finish an entire map that took all my talent to make.

I'm wanting a parter because without a doubt I work best with one and would like to work with someone. If you would like to help, great. Post that you would like to help and PM me your contact details (email & msn email)

I do not mind having more then one parter.

Experienced mappers only. Please have a decent background in mapping, I don't expect you to show me any past work, but you could. Let me know if you can model/texture.

I will be making map sections off of old paintings/drawings like this one to achieve a maximum amount immerse feel.

I'd go for a shop sign, but that's really not gonna matter on the playability of your map

Indeed, i think it's a shop sign, like a bottle for a winery or something..

Ahh thank you so much, I never thought of that.

hmmm, I'm not so sure. can you post a pic without the circle around it?

Come on people, partner in crime.

I just sweetened the deal.

No, no money.

Why would I get to decide..

ugh. ill just do one more post in this thread so i dont start anything.

you said it has the chance to be official. thats apparantly what u are offering in this project. yet u said, u havent released a quality map. so what do u plan on doing? telling people what u want, and they will do it? back to the original point, any map has the chance to be official i guess. but its like a 1 in a million chance. what makes this project any more different? is it because you are starting the project, that it will some how become superior to all others?

instead of just asking for partners (who will probably just fall under your "command") who have a good background with the program, why dont u make yourself well accustomed to the program first. then post some pictures. that will get u a crowd.

from what ive seen so far, all u have done was post a picture of something you want to create. ive seen that done many times before, and the project never got off the ground. maybe u should start off the project. create what you see in that picture. convince us.

I am very well accustomed with the program and have already started. Yes, I will show you something. I will finish everything visible in the picture to the best of my ability.

I simply wanted to really challenge myself and make my ultimate goal for it to be official.

The picture I posted was my way of pointing out an excellent way to make a map good and authentic looking to help.

My parter would not fall under my command but simply someone I'd be able to meet and become friends with, and share the project with.
