Hello and Welcome...

...to this thead :] I've been into valve games since Half Life 2 and have always wanted to jump into level design, and so i went in head first earlier this year and I've been putting together a large outdoor environment, inspired from one of my favorite games. I've been using the documentation on valvesoftware.com to learn how to use hammer, as well as reading some fundamental articles off of worldofleveldesign.com, which is where i found out about Interlopers :P.

So thats about me, I have still a ways to go with my current project, which is essentially a project dedicated to learning hammer, which I may or may not convert into a payload map later on, however once I get it to my first release state, you'll be the first to know.

After that im going to be looking into other projects that involve left 4 dead and possibly a full conversion project in half life 2.

I've only seen the tip of the iceberg when it comes to level design, but I'm eager to see how deep this rabbit hole goes. I'm also trying to get an entry level position at a local game studio in order to get some experience, and try to get a feel of working with studio developers.

Hello there.

Total conversions are a ton of work, I don't recommend doing that.

Don't all things worth doing require work?

yes, but not all things that are a ton of work are worth doing, and making a total conversion is usually not worth the effort, unless you plan on using different budgeting or style rules for your new content.
