    Does every mapper want to leave TUT after realising his map?

    I'd like to thank the people that helped me when I had questions. I learned alot about UnrealEd. Hopefully enough to give me a headstart with Thief 3 comes out.

      If you had found 3 or 4 accounts of a mapper leaving the community after producing some work I could understand the question, but what it looks like is that you've found 1 account of a mapper leaving after producing a map and are now generalising a question to the rest of the community, its a bit moot and pointless IMO. Also you never leave TUT, TUT leaves you

            They probably got bored of what was already available, so would have left eventually anyway. That's why they decided to create their own map.

              Next step is to say that any game developer creates his game thank to huge boredom?

                nope you've just taken it to far boredom of playing the same 5 maps on repeat for the 2 years is a good reason for someone to try and make more.

                    Probably these mappers ignored all oRGy's mapping tips?

                      Interesting point. Can you give more details? What repeatable map pushed bored player to make what map?

                        It's funny how we are able to stop and explain completely everything to a child, but our patience dissipates when it's WTaFa asking the quesiton.

                          just because you follow tips doesnt mean a map is going to be liked by all and played often. for example i play in many clan wars and cups for ut2004, each clan picks half the maps they want to play out of a maplist, in that map list, 90% are custom maps. so the people who bought out the game with pro mappers who made amazing maps only have 3/4 of there map in the cups out of the 20 that came with the game. its not a case of following tips or how things look, its all about gameplay and sometimes some maps just work better then others. thievery doesnt really have much fan made content and alot of the fan made maps just dont have that "thing" that makes them likeable enough. not even all the offical ones does, some just work better then others.

                            The issue was people came from a Thief background and as a result, a lot of the maps are sprawling and lovingly detailed but tedious or impossible to guard.
