So I decided earlier today that I would try my darndest to make a remake of Halo 2's 'Zanzibar'.

Bad idea.

From what I've played, the map is pretty horrendous but I'm going to post it anyways so you guys can see what NOT to do, and that is making Halo/2 maps for Soldat. From what I've seen the gameplay is SO DIFFERENT that making maps for Soldat based around a Halo/2 map is pretty pointless.

Ok, folks move along, nothing to see here.

Remember not to use a good title up if you can't live up to it :p

You really need some shading, better poly placement and better scenery placement on this map.

This is an example of what NOT to do.

This was never meant to impress, but to examine and study.

Please, take these suggestions:

I. Read tutorials! Even if you have already, re-read them. Over & over & over...
II. Take your time. You have made 3 or 4 maps within' like 2 days. Most good maps will takes a couples days to a couple of weeks or more.
III. Practice. You need to learn how to shade. So, make a test map and just practice shading. This will greatly improve your skill.
IV. Good map idea's. This for example is a bad idea. Don't make a bad map (no offence) of a nice map.
