ba_jail_hogwarts_v1

Really brilliant idea you got there! (see what I did there? hehe)

I thinks its great as the way it is, but I got a few ideas for the map if you are interested. For example, the armory/ct spawn, could be Dumbledores office, with the stairs going down!

If you are going to make a maze, that could be the ..uhm..that Forrest which is dark and nobody should go inside.

My next idea probably needs alot of work.. but an idea for an race, is making that Quidditch arena, and find a way to make it a race instead of a ball game.

I hope this helps you out! And I do not tell you to listen to my ideas, I just want to help you out my friend :)
 
You could make one of the tables in the Great Hall a S4S place like the Duelling Club in the Chamber of Secrets.

Four corners has/had a nice little treat to it, but like I said, I've scrapped most of what I had and revised it to make it a little more accurate looking. I just want everyone to keep in mind that it is a jail map and therefore there needs to be room for jail games, so don't cry to me if areas don't look like hogwarts :P

Silencio! Either make it look like hogwarts or never talk to me again!

It may or may not get picked to be added into the rotation for Jail though, keep that in mind.

I gave you some ideas in an earlier post.

The great hall is pretty nailed so don't mess with it now. You need to add lots of paintings to the walls and a central staircase which lead up to the different rooms. Like floor 1 could be climb, go up stairs again to race and so on. If its possible have them moving.

Due to circumstances that are out of my control (thank you source sdk for being lame), I am not going to complete this project at any time in the near future. I've given up due to technical difficulties that have had me pulling my hair out for weeks. So, basically, if I'm going to start mapping at all again, it will be something else, and not this.

Many tears,:crying:

I am really sad to see this go. This looks really amazing, not as a jail map but a piece of great artwork.

Maybe sometime you can pick it back up again.
 
Well, as it turns out, I guess I wasn't ready to let this go yet, so I ran it by a mapping friend/god (aka christy) and we found out that I had exceeded the max brush number. So, basically what that means is I can't add all of the things I wanted to add without taking away a lot of my detail, so I'm going to settle for what I have now and start working on something else.

*Fingers crossed.*
 
You can use the proper tool, and make some of your brushes models instead.
 
For those of you who may have been wondering, I did end up finishing this map. Due to using a few too many brushes in the great hall for my detail, I was unable to add everything that I had planned on. At some point in the future I will most likely make a v2 and make it a little more hogwarts-esque, but until then, I'm calling it done and have already submit it.
