Hello standard lez expansion pattern. ^^

If it's LotV imo it should have another base, but you'd have to make it bigger so eh. "micro map" works.

I like the natural-4th setup a lot, but doesn't it seem very small for LotV, or even HotS? The 12 bases is totally enough imo however.

PS what doodads (if you are using doodads) are you using as cliff gap fillers for the Protoss cliffs? I have been trying to make Protoss bridges and cant find a good gap filler.

I think 12 bases total is still fine for LotV. I don't think I'd ever go 10 again, though.

I have too often focused on aesthetics too early, so I wanted to share my layout first. Thank you for your feedback in advance!

Hey there,
I just started with mapmaking for TLMC6 and I wanted to gain some fresh feedback from the community for this map:
[image loading]


Any concerns about the 3rd being too far away/ Other stuff
Also where do I find cool doodads that work kind of like a whole works (Pathblocking, Looking Nice) and how do I design the air space, what to use?

Also Ive had issues with the main base ramps being unwallable, do they have to be diagonal for that? How do I make sure to balance the vespene income :D

So many questions, maybe you can give me the answers
Thanks in forward.

Oh well I might aswell post the work in progress map here. Making a 3p map without using the simmetry tool is really refreshing.

@Antirusher : do not use vertical/horizontal ramps if you're just starting to make maps , they often harm more than benefit !

Thanks!
But now I wonder, with the amount of maps you are just busting out @IeZael :D You don't place all that skyscrapers manually, is there a way to choose a background for the airspace?

Also I've reworked the map to exclude vertical/horizontal maps as much as possible aswell as get the 3rd base a little closer, now im only afraid you will not feel comfortable on 4 bases (taking the closest ones) since you would have to position your army inbetween base 2 and 3 on the lowground (inbetween the ramps)

Oh , I dont post here everything. We have a skype chat for that.
As for your map , I understand people trying to do "innovative" stuff , but you gotta learn the basics first. Fire up the editor , open a ladder map and modify it.

Hey peoples, i have this one in the making. any hints/ideas plssss?!????

[image loading]

small info you hardly can see: theres debris rocks on the highground between 3th and 4th to the mid



Ah and a question: It seems to be possible to use 3 different kind of cliffs, right? Looks pretty amazing, or is there anything bad about more then 2 types of cliffs?

The natural and third look a bit open to me, but I'm not sure. The aesthetics are very unique and interesting, though perhaps you could consider make the cliff shapes more natural and the manmade cliffs more straight? Very nice center design too, though it seems a bit choked.

Edt: Sorry about the natural, it is a good size I just missed the debris.

What... what's going on near the main bases?
I don't particularly like the layout either.

keke, that was my only semifinished bullet atm, so I guess no map for me this time. Ty for the feedback.

The stuff around the main base is just visuals, basins with grass, unpathable.

@ Squarker

Agree with algue

Map is also to small, with only one initial route to the enemy, for the entire map. Big no no.
