Hey builders, here an reminder: Details doesn't mean it's automatically good, keep that in mind. ;) Too much details can also cause a lot of lag in your maps, of course you can add some, but don't put too many.
Many textures (mixed ones included), many shadow blocks, many parts (aka some parts from decorations) or even many blocks and many lights can cause lag in your map
Exactly. For decorations, I usually just use normal decorations or basic offsetted blocks, like placing thin corner walls on a slab so they go into a wall for a long bench with a back. It's not bad at all to be simple. Just do what you have patience for and take your time building. I see so many videos of people making these crazy maps in 2 months. I'm still working on the same map after 2 years, and it's only part 1 of 3.
I’ve been trying to fix this problem with people not knowing offsets by going into there maps and asking them if I could teach them offsets and there are 4 outcomes with this 1. They listen and follow instructions well 2. They don’t listen and don’t pay attention 3. They say ‘no thank you’ or ‘I’m good’ 4. They just kick me
Don’t worry ArticAsylum I am actually a great builder myself too I have made a whole game called baseplate concepts where I have recreated or created events and some from piggy like the mall lasers. But also I used some events from other games such as branched realites outbreak mode and flee the facility death jails. But some original things I have done are like for say mode only doors where you need to select a certain mode in order for it to work for example the door the open (but it could be any linked event of your choosing) I have also made an end timer infection where right before the clock is done ticking you turn infected as a result of you dying (I was going to use this for my Bunny CFC, but I had big problems like not keeping the player data after dying and respawning and it only infects the player who triggers it)
Ive only ever had people help me with building maps once. I'm still not the best at making Piggy Maps, but I've noticed how much better they can be when it's only me building. The only time I'll probably ever get help with building is if I need build mode events exclusive to seasons I don't have unlocked. Most of my detailing isn't the best in the world, but I like to sometimes either keep it simple, or only do what I think is necessary for my map.
Pretty Useful! There is probably another newbie mistake: Making unoriginal maps like Fnaf, Minigames, Piggy says, e.t.c. They are EVERYWHERE! You will see atleast one Minigames map or Piggy says map on the Server list. (One of the builder I am working with is creating a tycoon game and I am making a Border Control Game)
I previously made a video about those types of maps and how it affects the game, which inevitably lead to the server list overhaul. I recommend watching it if you want to hear my input.
Luckily I do know how to make custom events and decorations with offsets and links and one strategy I use is to make a rough outline of blocks for a layout, then add decorations, events and items. Then I change the walls into the style of my map.
I’ve actually have been building ever since the release of build mode One thing I wanna add to this video is that some starters also just keep the texture/colour as the same thing and have giant maps with lots of space making them look boring and rushed
In my build mode perspective, its really hard for me to learn offsets as they are super complicated and take lots of getting used to. I am not against people using offsets for details but I only use it for minor systems and not for actual map detailing.
I want to use offset stuff to make my maps look a million times better, but it's just, not fun to do :( the tricks and glitches that are needed to have things go offset and all of that feels really repetitive, annoying, and unenjoyable to me, it really really sucks. I hope soon Epic Tank will implement a tool that can make putting things offset a lot easier and actually enjoyable, instead of the weird tricks people use to do it.
I've got lots of ideas but i don't know how to start building a map. Like i know how to build i just don't know how to start building the map. Any tips?
it depends on the map. if the map is a building, for example like a factory, you can build a little outside section where you go inside the factory. whether for a cutscene or gameplay.
To be honest, I don't like to put too much detail on my maps, obviously I use offsets, but I use it in a simple way, since my phone doesn't have a lot of gigabytes, it may seem selfish but I like playing my own maps
The thing is that it takes TOO much time to add details since we have to use more than 2 things, and there it comes the doors and corners, minitoon should add advanced building just like in roblox studio
Ive thought of a moon base map and ive realised my mistakes while watching this video, i use alot of decoration in one place in a map to make it look "better" but now im thinking of remaking that place!, one mistake was i also did not not layout (sorry) But, im thinking of adding a simple layout (in not sure if i should add an outside. Is that alright?
[This comment has nothing to do w. the video lol] 1:50 How'd you make that? (I've been trying to make smth similar to that but i just get stuck halfway through creating it ;-; )
Here's a good mindset trick for you. Instead of thinking "I'll never be able to build like this..." Start thinking more like "I should start building like this!"
@@Neverwasreal in this situation I would search up multiple different areas that look like the thing I'm trying to build. If nothing comes up I improvise for an area I think I can build well without any references
Nah, I like doing it the old fashioned way. I prefer it much better, I don't have put that much detail on walls, floors, ceilings, decorations, and events
I was listening on headphones and I made the mistake of listening on full volume, and all I could hear was the music 😭 I couldn’t even hear what u were saying- Maybe uhhh… tone down the music a tad bit so headphone users can keep their ears..? (No hate!! ❤️✨👀🕊️)
Yea this is what I did along time ago but didn’t like it so i diside to make for effort to it I would show you but UA-cam dose not let any posting photos in the comments so I will putted in my comments and also I have a video on how to make the mención doors locked event 😅

a long time ago when build mode was first released, there was no no-clip feature. The layout was different too

Offsets may be hard at first, but once you develop game sense, the process is a lot smooth and fun. Don't think too deep into it.

thanks! also can you give me a map idea? So i can use it lol (i didn't build for 3 months xD)
I’ve been doing it for like 3 months-(ish) and I don’t use TOO MANY offsets but some to add a little extra to my maps

“A couple of years” it’s only been 1 year bud
Do you think a map thats mostly grey but has areas with different colors is okay?
That's what Minitoon pretty much did with Breakout, which went pretty well. I say it's perfectly fine.
it kind of depends on how you go about it. lighting goes a long way.
gray walls may also seem particularly more bland if the walls are completely flat

close enough yknow
i personally dont use layouts but good vid 👍

@ArticAsylumBMok now make a tutorial
Somehow i played it when it came out and dont use many details at all

Here's a good mindset trick for you.
Instead of thinking "I'll never be able to build like this..." Start thinking more like "I should start building like this!"
@Astro-VXR Wow, thanks man, I might try someday
I have a problem, When i start building i start running into the problem of not knowing how the map looks irl or not even existing
Search up whatever building your making's layout and take inspiration off of it.
@@RANDOMIZED_THINGZthe problem is that google never gives me what I want, neither does youtube
@@Neverwasreal in this situation I would search up multiple different areas that look like the thing I'm trying to build. If nothing comes up I improvise for an area I think I can build well without any references
How do i find your server
about section
i have been building for 4 years and i still use the blocky, offsets system
Maybe make a map and public with custom events details and more!
and what if I just want to build for fun and not building like I have a master's degree at architecture?
I make my maps too short usually… rip me
Nah, I like doing it the old fashioned way. I prefer it much better, I don't have put that much detail on walls, floors, ceilings, decorations, and events
i jsut found out that if you hold CTRL while resizeing it will do it in both sides!
It's useful, but I personally don't use it.
@@ArticAsylumBM yeah me too but it's preety useful when you want to do somethin' symetrical
