Far Cry 2 - Map Editor - Kerred Mountain

CHECK out my xbox360 broadcasts at http://www.justin.tv/kerred

:D

My first Far Cry 2 Map for the XBox360, Kerred Mountain.

Search by my gamertag kerred or search for "kerred" to locate.

Sadly I no longer have Far Cry 2, so this and Kerred tower are the only two maps you will see from me.

About the Xbox360 FarCry Map Editor:
About the Xbox360 map editor:
-Rarely anyone will play your map. This is because you can only play maps in Player matches. Player matches does not save your ranking, earns no achievements, nothing. So you cannot play with your favorite grenade launcher or sniper on player made map for the Xbox360, neither can anyone else

-Since Player Matches are not popular due to the lack of leveling up, not many people play player matches, or will join your game. I would let my Xbox360 sit for an hour with maybe 1 person joining a game that's not my friend.

For those reasons I could not actually test the maps I made to even tell if they were balanced, so the maps were made out of guesswork and technically are just "first drafts"

With that said, if you're either lucky or you get a good group of friends together, you will actually get to play your player maps!

Now on to the 360 map editor itself:
-Easy to pickup, I recommend making a tiny map first, will take anywhere from 3-5 hours for a detailed tiny map
-Near limitless possibilities. Nearly anything you want to do is possible, rarely running out of room.
-Low amount of textures means your maps will only have the Far Cry African feel to it, so you can't make maps that feel like you are elsewhere as easily, so stick to the African style when designing maps.
-Lots of detail objects
-Difficulty in certain objects together to get them to flow just right

Anyways, this is one of the better console map editors, ranks right up there with Tony Hawk Underground 2, Timesplitters 3, And Halo 3 in terms of possibilities, but being able to actually play the maps will turn off gamers. Out of the thousands of views this video got, I bet only 5-20 people actually played it :/

if you can put emenies plz tell me umm also how do you save it

[kerred]

@ZFL3X You can not add AI if that's what you refer to "enemies" since it is an online team based map. And to save, you should just open the menu when you have the map open and have a save option available, if you can save maps on the 360 still.

this map isint bad, but i have a question, how do you only paint one part of the terrain? mine always paints everything.

[kerred]

@srry4beatinu sadly I don't remember, its been too long :(

[farcry2outlaw]

this map kinda sucks

[kerred]

@farcry2outlaw How did it go when you played it?

Since I couldn't find anyone online I didn't know what was needed to make a good map. This was a test map I never got to test so see what people like in a map :(

Plus I was just throwing random stuff together to see what happened.

But if I did get to test it rest assured i'd find ways to make it better and balanced :D

@srry4beatinu there's a way to play xbox 360 online free for 1 month.

[srry4beatinu]

@ElvisFerbeyre i have an xbox 360 too, but no account. and i dont have it for computer at all. sad to say, but i may have to use psn just cause its free -.-

[ElvisFerbeyre]

@srry4beatinu I got an xbox 360 man. I guess we won't be able to play if you got a computer. And about the texture in the game, I'll tell you that if you want to create a new texture you have to add it in another empty slot, cuz the first one is the whole map texture, if you change it, you'll change the hole map paint, you have to add another one which of course gets more space in your map. However I don't know how is this in PC. In Xbox 3 you get empty slots to create new texture,trees,paths.
