I`m not much of a game mapper, i`m a newbie at map developing and Xtinyworld reflects that. It is a small and fast paced "room-like" map that supports DM, TDM and CTF. The first person that tested this map was Calinou, so here i am sharing my map with you the other members of this community.
<Samual> I am the most unprofessional developer ever
<bluez> halogene, you make awesome music, but you have no clue about ctf.
<Halogene> I didn't know mappers include some mysterious waypoints so members of the BOT clan can navigate a map?
<divVerent> if you don't pay for a premium account, your movement speed is limited to 100qu/s
It seems to me that there are two ways you could go with it. You could load it down with weapons like you got it (makes it extremely fast paced and dynamic), or you could limit the weapons on it (possibly only bullet and explosive weapons). It is up to you which you choose.
I would suggest removing the mine layer. It doesn't seem to fit with the tiny size and quick rotation of sides you got there.
I like the health and armor placement, very handy.
Spawning points (if those were designed, I don't know), seemed to be well chosen as well.
In other words: balance the weapons a bit, and renovate the textures, and you got yourself a good map. In my book at least.
Proverbs 25:8 Go not forth hastily to strive, lest thou know not what to do in the end thereof, when thy neighbour hath put thee to shame.

Because, while it may not be the case with EVERY 3D GAME out there, the overwhelming majority feel the need to equip you with: A dagger, a cleaver, a chainsaw, or a @&#%n' tuba.
ThePWTULN:
"this bit should be aligned with the ground..." yes you may be right, i have used different textures one for the walls and one for ground, since is a room-like map, thanks for the tip i will try to study netradiant better
"the texture here needs to be aligned..." is that bad that the edge is a bit off? or just an advice for the future ?
"is this supposed to be perpendicular..." yes they should but netradiant has a different way of working that gtkradiant(used under urban terror).
For me mapping is something new and netradiant is much newer that gtkradiant but if i will design something in the future i will keep in mind your observations as well.

It's not a big problem, it just looks like you have some really flat bricks and some bricks that are almost square
I get the impression from the feedback that you could improve on the level. Considering your experience with mapping the gameplay is good. I'm sure it could be a popular map in the future. Take The PWTULN and Sir Emeth Mimetes advice though.
