My Far Cry 2 Maps

[halolover2dmax]

Is there an object limit?

[oxygensnoboard]

@halolover2dmax Yes, but its tough to reach.

[hazzerthegr8]

how do you tilt objects? like the scafold at 0.25?

[iGrumple]

what are the red people???

[allrampage95]

360

or ps3?

tell me the maps names

[oxygensnoboard]

you can see in the video that the controls are for the 360. and the names are in the description... are you REALLY that stupid?

[Noobkilla99786]

Sweet video, if you have suggestions about my city map, im having trouble making it look like a real modern city, if you have any tips please tell me. thanks

[LoveGunLoza]

you should make a video of your new maps........jew

[altair3feb]

Wow, you're really awesome... you really have a wide imagination!

[DemosOfBlink]

how long do those take to make

[oxygensnoboard]

Maybe 6-10 hours a piece.

[LOLcrazy444]

verry goodmap

[Papergman11]

i dont no how to make spawn point or take pictures while you wait to spawn

can u plz tell me

btw nice maps my fav is the first 1

[oxygensnoboard]

Spawn points are located in the multiplayer section. White are deathmatch spwans. Colored spawns are for team games. spectator cams are also in the multiplayer section. Just place them facing the way you want to see, and raise them up so people dont have to stare at the ground. I strongly recommend being very familiar with the editor before you start publishing maps though.

[Noobkilla99786]

Hey, how do you get the Spectator Cameras to Float?

Please tell me.

[oxygensnoboard]

You must use the edit objects tool. Just grab the object with right trigger and raise it with the right stick. You really should get to know what ALL the tools do before you even think about publishing a map. Test everything out, you might find that there are tools to do things you may try to do on your own, only it makes it easier and faster... not to mention it looks better

[Noobkilla99786]

And also, what is the point of the Occlusion block? I watched many videos but i still dont understand what they are mainly used for.

[oxygensnoboard]

Basically what happens is that your Console loads everything "on screen", so even if you cant see it, your console loads it because it is ahead of you. This can lower frame rate, since some maps have very large maps with lots of objects. Occlusion block "block" everything behind it from loading, greatly improving the frame rate. Try it out, place a building, place a large occlusion block in front of it, stand on the other side and watch it disappear.

[BIOSHOCK456]

by the i can never get bridges to work can you help me?

[BIOSHOCK456]

how do you make caves inside the cliffs?

[oxygensnoboard]

Just use rocks and flip them around to form caves. If you gotta ask, its probably something you shouldnt attmept to do until you really are familiar with the editor

[BIOSHOCK456]

can't you lower the cliffs?

[BIOSHOCK456]

can't you lower the cliffs and i will try to show you my no mercy map it is so cool

[oxygensnoboard]

I don't make any cliffs. I just keep the terrain flat and use rocks in the natural section. What problem are you having with bridges?

[BIOSHOCK456]

when ever i try to connect them to a cliff or something it cuts into pieces

[oxygensnoboard]

Well, I'm not really sure what you mean by that. But, the problem may be that you have your objects moving with the terrain. The first thing you should do is go to settings and turn off the keep objects with terrain option. Another suggestion would be to change the sub-menu setting(in the bottom left corner when editing an object). There is a picture of an arrow going over a mountain and one with it going through. Change it to the one wuth the arrow going through

[CatMan221]

2nd to last 1 was my fav....

[CheckaMinga]

This is absolutely ... amazing.

[XkienzleX]

Cliffside cafe is indeed fucking brilliant. Following that one I think Lil Italy is my second favorite... but I have a thing for urban maps anyway.

[alexopker]

can you actually use user generated maps for multiplayer? ranked or unranked? or both i dunno may be getting tommorow

[oxygensnoboard]

you can use these maps for unranked matches only. Otherwise people would make maps where the other team spawns in pits and shit. It's a very good game, I recommend it

[xX808OReOXx]

they need to make the streetlamps work in the 360 version of the editor,

i cant make a decent map at night thats playable!!!!

[oxygensnoboard]

i know

[patrickpeople]

Good maps!

You are good at creating maps, create the Bloc, map of the Call of Duty 4.

And put on Youtube for us to see.

[oxygensnoboard]

I don't like remakes. There a waste of time. Why would I spend hours making a map thats already been done?

[patrickpeople]

Hey, you will not be wasting your time. You will be creating a great map of Call of Duty 4, or you and one of those crazy not like COD 4?

Just think that you are transferring the map of a game to another.

[oxygensnoboard]

I love Call of Duty 4. But, the fact is, I wouldn't be creating ANYTHING. I have much better ways of spending my time then transferring maps. Not to mention, why on earth would anyone want to play a COD4 map on a game with inferior multiplayer gameplay? Far Cry doesnt exactly have a great multiplayer experience. What makes it good, is that you never HAVE to play a map twice. theres always new stuff. So I'd much prefer people enjoying MY maps

[LeFaucheur]

that café map is indeed interesting, but a bit too empty unfortunately (already read your comment about that)

[oxygensnoboard]

yeah... Hopefully there will be an increase in the limit in an update or something

[LeFaucheur]

since I am building my 1st map, I haven't experienced that problem yet. I'm remaking a map I made in timesplitters, and I'm using 25% of the memory so far, while I would use 75% on TSFP.

[BigBean3]

isnt there a limit to object?

[oxygensnoboard]

Yes, but, it is very hard to reach it. What really sucks is that there is an object limit in sections of the grid on the map. So vertical buildings for example are hard to make and furnish well. thats the reason my cliffside cafe is fairly empty.

[jimmycarter123456789]

dude that cliffside mansion thing is awesome!!

[kazooie4]

cool but how you can do spawn points? like team 1 spawned there and team 2 there i know how to make spawn points but not if the right team spawns were i want.. can you help me? plz

gamertag: iknowilag

[oxygensnoboard]

There are white spawn points which are for deathmatch. Then there are red and yellow spawns, for each team. Red being one team and yellow being the other. So just point reds together and yellows together.

[imBrokenBoxes]

you put six twice, just letting you know. These are vary good maps how long did it take you to make them?

[oxygensnoboard]

Oops.... On average I probably spent about 5 hours on each map. Eastonia probably only took me about an hour, since It was only my second map. I do plan on adding alot more to it though, when I get the game

[xX808OReOXx]

these r great man

hey ya check out mine mine r kinda artistic but they still work

XBGT:xX808OReOXx

[Hackeysacked]

This is impressive i hope when i get this game for christmas i can make sick nasty levels. I don't understand why this game was hated by so many people?

[oxygensnoboard]

Many people dont like the simplicity of the map editor(crysis fans). While I agree that many people make very shitty maps and the rating and distribution system sucks, I must say that people will make shitty maps on any editor. Its not so much the simplicity of the editor, but rather the simplicity of many console gamers minds, that makes these shitty maps. There are many shitty maps, cause there are many kids and douches playing consoles. But hey, not the games fault.

[Abrelosojos]

Cant forget the lack of a "friends" list for multiplayer, Trying to organise playing with friends on a server is a nightmare - atleast it is on pc. Not sure what your playing on.

A.I. in solo is absolute pants too.

hammer ftw!

[oxygensnoboard]

Well, luckily with xbox live's service, my friends are always just a few button presses away. So I usually don't have a problem getting a game going. Single player was a big let down, though. But, it's no big deal for me, since I only play this game for the editor and multiplayer.

[Hx0x]

Cliffside cafe is cool

[1665kyle]

How do you rate maps on far cry 2? I'd give you five stars!

[oxygensnoboard]

You have to play it, then after the match it says to press "Y" at the bottom to rate the map

[Th3BL4ckKn1ght]

WOW! those maps are awesome! i cant wait until i get this game for christmas so i can download cool maps like these and make my own.

[barkustheman]

oh my god, cliffside café is breathtaking

i was wondering about the building tool but that map is like a dream come true it told me more than i could have ever imagined. excellent maps, man, buy the game and keep up the brilliance!

[Roozer93]

you are very good m8, keep it up:D

[therandomuser1]

howdo u make caves?

[goodboy055]

use cliffs and raotat them

[oxygensnoboard]

Generally I like to use large rocks or xl rocks, since cliffs tend to make the cave look very uniform. Then you just rotate them and stack them to make the walls. then flip over some rocks for the roof, and cover up any flat parts that may show up along the walls and roof.

[SgtSpartico]

Gotta give it to you. All those maps were awesome! Amazing job! My Gamertag: Albino Rhinos. The O's are zero's. Just in case u ever feel like playing. Again, awesome job. :)

[Buick97Custom]

cliffside cafe was truly amazing. woww. You should add me. ThinBlue65

[oxygensnoboard]

well, unfortunately I no longer have the game, but if I decide to buy it, I'll send you an invite

[barkingmy]

Far cry 2 perfected the whole idea of a map editor and you've perfected making the maps on it! Overall: Perfection!

[oxygensnoboard]

Well I appreciate your comment. But the map editor could be much better(ex; Crysis sandbox). I like the simplicity and quickness of making maps, but I would be willing to spend more time on a map if I had more options creating them. I still have to add alot more detail to all my current maps, though. But, I guess I need to get the game first, since until a week ago I've just been borrowing it from a friend.

[motorsk8]

these are awesome maps! :D my friend has a xbox, i'm going to check them out ;D

for those of you who plays ps3, my gamertag is metallicamaniac, check out my maps. they are called "cave of war" and "pacific island"

[knowaboutsouthafrika]

wow...that were best maps i ve seen allready.. amazing 10/ 5 ...^^

[SnipersUnited]

AWSOME! I truely solute you, You have inspired me to put even more conviction into my maps. That cafe was was probably the best work i've seen EVER. This is on xbox right?

[defenda0492]

The 2nd to last is insanity

[upsidedownkill]

can u build with concrete in this game??..i mean that YOU have to build your own walls..

[oxygensnoboard]

They give you concrete blocks that you can use to make structures. They could have added some better walls and stuff, but it works as long as you have patience.

[upsidedownkill]

ok..cool .

but this is pc right??can you do this on a console like the xbox 360??

[oxygensnoboard]

You dont like to read do you? This is on the 360. All the map editors are the same anyways. I think the only difference is that the PC has lights

[upsidedownkill]

there is nowhere a word called "xbox"...or "360" in the description..but still really awesome maps that u've made

[oxygensnoboard]

Really cause I see it right now at the bottom. and it reads "My gamertag is AnEastonfection if you would like to download these maps(xbox only)."

[upsidedownkill]

ow yeh i see it now..l0l

[LeFaucheur]

I'm on xbox too. I haven't played online much, but I'm under the impression I saw your name somewhere.
