As an absolute beginner, I would recommend the same. Sign-up on their site and start downloading the CoD1 starting tutorials.Nightmare wrote:Anyway, your best bet is this little site right here>>> http://www.modsonline.com
Do not try and do to much straight away, most mappers will start by building a house. There are tutorials to help you do this. Remember, as a beginner, don't expect yourself to be doing anything amazing within the first few weeks.

Only Drofder made the ultimate maps when he startedDo not try and do to much straight away, most mappers will start by building a house. There are tutorials to help you do this. Remember, as a beginner, don't expect yourself to be doing anything amazing within the first few weeks.

Yea lol....my first map isn't that good either

I made a "jump" map....it were 10 platforms with a distance of 8 grid

Then I have searched for hours how to make a .PK3

and then I finally found http://www.modsonline.com and I made a .PK3, played it.....
And just when I started to jump, I walked over the platforms.....my jumps were awful

...you will probably learn the most of your mapping-skills by making testmaps

and after a few maps you'll get a bit more knowledge map by map
