Hey Everyone!

[Milon91]

Hey, might aswell Introduce myself since I'm hoping to become more active here

My name is Milon91 (Obviously not my real name but meh..) I'm 19 years old and have been messing about in hammer for a little time, just on and off since I find it hard to stick to/finish something.

Basically I've came here to pick up Source Level Design as it's something I've always wanted to do. I start University in September where they use Source SDK, so some early work and projects like I'm hoping to do should greatly help me with that and then maybe future work. I have quite little knowledge of hammer but I do know the basics but have yet to finish and release a map. The areas I am struggling in are:
- Designing/Concept
- Lighting
- PATIENCE

I will try to be active but can't guarantee that, I will most likely be hanging around in the tutorials/help section of this forum to help get me started and learn further. If anyone would like to add me on Steam or Xfire to offer me any good tips or advice then they can do so or can also just PM me on here

Thanks for taking the time to read it if you did, I know it might be long for some but I just wanted you to understand where I am at the moment. Thanks

Welcome to Interlopers!

I honestly didn't know there was Universities that used Source, wouldn't be my first choice... but what ever, still a great engine.

Good luck with Source and looking forward to seeing what you create.

My old University (Portsmouth) had some people who messed about with Source, I remember they released a video of someone who made a map to demonstrate a fire drill, players would use it so they could see how people would react in a fire and where they'd go to get out the building. All I could think was how bad the mapping was

Also I think there was a mod released some time ago created by a lecturer there.
