With making a map?

Well draw out what your map should look like on paper and labl it so you know roughly what it will look like. Then what i like to do is create prefabs of buildings etc of what will be in my map. There is a vid tutorial on that but that should help you get started.

the very first thing you should do is learn to make a skybox with spawn and ground...then compile and test

build it properly it will compile properly and it will test properly

but hey - what do i know?

Stryder and Kashul are giving you good advice. If you can't make a sky box, your map wont work. Also prefab is the way to go. Watch the tutorials again, I'm not sure how you don't understand what to do after watching. Did you watch the Mapping Basics 101 by Wyatt? If not start there, and then just go down the list. I've watched them all, more than once. Good Luck

...I'll remember that next time you're looking for help lol

[angryalien]

*and BTW - Prefabs are NOT the way to go...

Learn how to create your own stuff for your own map...or else EVERYBODYS map will be the same....and thats boring [angryalien]

Hey, stryder,

What i think ,Khashul, meant was....build your own prefabs and then drop them into the map. That way you are not building the map all at once, but your testing your prefabs one by one (as you go)....making sure there are no errors in their design. [moon]
