This topic is open for suggestions and tips.



Hey guys SlashWork here,

I've seen some of ur work here in the forum and in the server, really nice and quality stuff.

So i decided to try my luck..

I've tryed MTA and didn't really liked it, found out about *SAMP Map Editor few years back but nerver did anything in it.
* Download link seems to be broken

So here im trying SAMP Map Editor and really enjoying it ;)

LV ISLAND Work In Progress:

Note: I don't have any idea with what free program to take videos with :/ so pictures it is.

**UPDATE 13/09/19**

Video added. (Sorry for quality and no sound im new to this)
Link: https://youtu.be/iZT6TsQy6pE *Note @1:22 i've seen the brige is all massed up, will be fixed.
   • 2nd video [Link: https://youtu.be/-HE6cldW8pw ] Sorry for the low fps at the start im using old laptop. Whole new duck area im working on. It is suppost to be some kind of circle indrustial area and cross road to the city.

--- This is it so far ---


First thing im focusing is on the entrance/connection of the main GTA SA land to the custom one.

Before: Link.

Start.ver1: Link.

Start.ver2: Link.

I know you can't really see much at PIC 2 but as i sayed i dont know any program to take video's with.

As you can see it a W.I.P [Work In Progress] and this topic is mostly for feedback but ANY tips, advice or suggestions or more then welcom (please).

First thing im focusing is on the entrance/connection of the main GTA SA land to the custom one, its alot of playing around and moving objects, lots of fine detailing i see its taking me a lot of time its mostly one road ant it took me about 3 hours to do.. if you any experience mappers or just casual observers think i should focus on one part up to the last detail and then moving on or?? i have no idea..

Cheers, have a good one.

you can use BandiCam or OBS for recording.

I suggest you to first plan all the roads and then add the environment to it.

Only Tyler can do this

The road and the buildings look cool, but I think this will be a bad place to map, as there are 2 properties (6 slot houses) at that empty place.

A suggestion maybe:
I don't know how it will look xD but you can make it a commercial/industrial area where there are organizations/companies that are working together :D.

This is not specific to this server, i want to try and make some kind of a map that is somehow part of the original gta sa, this is why i try to make it detailed as i can.

About ur suggestion im not sure i fully understood u but i think i like the idea, not sure about tho.

Thanks.
