Looks like a nice map, lets hope it gets added

[[ZFC] idm]

For a first map this is kind of amazing.

You have an eye for detail and realism.

BUT

Office maps are just, unoriginal. It's done a 1000 times before, which makes it a bit easy. It also looks like it's just randomly put together (which is not really surprising since it's your first map).

I also get the feeling this map is going to LAG insanely, but I will test that tomorrow and let you know if that is indeed true. It just has waaaaaay to many prop models and open space, and probably misses optimization (?).

Anyway, seriously very good job for a first map, my first map didn't look like this at all (a lot badder)

For your next map, try to think of an original theme or a theme that is not used as much as office maps.
The problem with building an office map is, there are 500 of those and so there are probably 200 office maps better than yours.

You can see you took the time to get things right and I'm sure your next map will be a lot better. Take some more time to make a plan about how the map is going to look, what setting and atmosphere you are going to use and more of those things.

And most of all be original

All in all seems like a very very good first map. Keep 'm comming, I'm gonna play it tomorrow to give you some more advise *if you want that of course )

Thx all for the good reply's

And [ZFC] idm i know, making an office map isn't original but i need to start somewhere.
I also never saw a office map with a big garden so this is also something new (not?)

And i know i used to much props but i was trying all of them and how to work with it.

But over that "To much open space" I not agree with you, i have saw maps with open fields with nothing on it... So I did a good job

My next map will be a ZE i think
But i quit now for a while...

The release will be tomorrow!!!

!!!!!!!!!!
The following things will be fixed are changed in the next version:

The 100% solid plants (will be walkable)
The fence (will not be a ladder)
Some props will be removed/changed
More secrets will be added

!!!!!!!!!!

And don't forget this was my first map...
So if it lags, don't say its crap, but help me...


And i also change the credits:

Credits:
- Me (making map and all the crap)
- EastSider (For some tips and help)
