so, once 2.0 comes out, all map making will be done in this program. i understand that part. my question is how do people go about sending in maps to be looked at? could they take the sketchup model (.skp) and essentially transfer the map into alternativa? or would they have to start from scratch in alternativa? i tried to make my maps as designer-friendly as possible. keeping all doors/windows/floors the same dimensions.

Because they don't know how to work with AlternativaPlatform :) what is alternativaplatform?

sorry, i didnt realize there are like 10 other threads with maps in them. im new to the forums, and had just finished all three of the maps within the week and wanted to put them up. thanks for explaining why it was locked

the thread i made with my maps got locked for some reason, and they directed me here, so here are my three ive made in the last month: Austin: Great Divide: Highway: i consider these maps complete, in regards to changing anything. all buildings/doors/windows are uniform size. please give feedback :)

id also like to say; ive never had previous training with sketchup or with and 3d modelling software. after finding out that tankionline maps are user created, i asked around trying to find out how i could make one. i dont expect my maps to make it into tankionline, though that is their main purpose. i think my maps are as detailed if not more than the current maps that are in the game. thanks for your time and consideration. some more pictures of the maps: Highway: bunker from inside from outside inside the main building, looking thru the windows on the ramps ramp from outside Great Divide: key corner building 3 story 'store' red team spawn area valley and bridge between key corner building and warehouses Austin: corner shot of the main building and adjacent houses view inside the main building, 2nd floor cluster of houses top level 'compound'

theres a lot of detail put into these. some of the quality is lost by making them so small to put on here

I made these three maps in google sketchup and am presenting them to the tankionline community for opinions. all windows and doors are uniform size, as well as all buildings, in terms of height and width, etc. give me your opinions on them please. thank you Austin: Great Divide: Highway:

well i talked to a guy who made maps and he said use google sketchup, which i did. what program should i be using?

hello everyone. im new to the forums but not to the game. im also new to map making. ive made one map that i think is of good enough quality to present for consideration. bear in mind its my first map so its by no means professional. http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/9333/castle1b.jpg http://img816.imageshack.us/img816/3438/castle2.jpg http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/5526/castle3.jpg
