Far Cry 2 Level Editor Contest Thread

Ok people, so here's some WIPs of my, very much still WIP, levels

So this I going under 'nostalgia' I rekon, only rough at the mo, and difficult to get it playing anything like it should when the cars explode if there is a jump a few inches high!  Also I really want tha ability to add music to the map!!.. attach a looping midi file.. anything! its just so much better with the music!

I just thought it had to be done ^^ it should be obvious, even at this stage, what it is.

enough rambling here's the early WIP

FARCRY2 KART - Koopa Troopa Beach WIP from Toby Everett on Vimeo.

Im also working on something else.. im not certain the direction its taking yet but here's a teaser pic

Some other stuff is in concept so i'll update when i have more.

Comments, crits, suggestions welcome

I had nothing better to do today so I finished my third map called "Magic Kingdom". It's awaiting Authorisation now so here is the main screenshot:

I'm still looking for the "What The..!? Award" with this map and I don't think you ever seen something like this in Far Cry...

alright i guess its my turn to get in on some farcry fun. So ive been thinking for some time and have had no idea what to do or what catagory to enter in, so i began to play an old game that i have called project nomads, essntially your a palyer that controll a flying island and islands fight eachother, so of coarse why not a flying island map, so heres my current WIP that i think im gonna call nomads and i think im gonna go for the Nostalgia Award with this one, otherwise i might go for the "what the...!? award. Please note this is only one island so far
 

Well i guess im done with this one, wasnt what i thought it would turn out to be but eh oh well on to the next one.

theres a good program that you can use called fraps and it takes screen shots quite nicely, thats what im using for my screen shots, it can even take screen shots and video feed from 3d modelers and the farcry 2 editor

 Yeah I didn't mean that, but thanks anyway.

I meant I just want to get different shots around the maps, birdseye, rather than take the shot in the editor with all the little icons etc. Unless there's a way to get rid of the icons temporarily.

My second map entry. This time for the What The?! award.

Mountain Hideout:



Basically just a fun map, you start down the bottom on a barge with 4, 4x4's on it and drive up the first mountain/cliff pillar thingo (whatever you call them), get off, go across the first bridge, 2nd and 3rd. Until you reach the Hideout, and just have fun up there. There's 2 Paragliders up there so you can fly and enjoy the scenery.

As for TDM, UFLL start on the Airfield, and APR begin at the barge.

I'd personally go with afternoon. But between Day and Night, I'd say night. Just make sure the lighting isn't to repetetive.

Btw, what award are you actually aiming for with the map?

Hey I already did that floating island idea....

Heres my WIP I did release it on far cry 2 already but I just wanted to play with a friend at that time and he gave me 40 minutes so u hurryed!Also I dont know how to embed soe just go here!http://www.moddb.com/members/megaqgzqgz/videos/the-trashyard-v1#imagebox

indeed people do like floating islands but i wouldnt worry i completly forgot to save XP so it wont be showing up

hmmm in the upper right corner put the city dump or somthing, somthing to offset the seeming shiney ness

So, i'll honestly answer you that your map has surrely a great gameplay, and it would be possible to be fun to play with.
But, it has any original idea or theme who gives some personnality to your map, she's flat and everyone can do a map like that. You must keep it up if you want to win because some people here made cities, tunnels, robots and more to deserve our attention.
Who am i to give you some advices? i could'nt pretend to be better than another one, but i'm sure that we have to MAKE SOMETHING SPECIAL.
Sorry for that, try harder.
