Map making tips

I'd also like to know as well, since I'm doing it a bit from scratch and I'm trying to make a very nice map myself too.

can anyone help me with the skybox? i tryed to add it but it wont let me run my map. else if its "running" i cant see anything (no skybox, no grass which i placed or anything else)

learn how to make everything
- doors ladders respawnable windows etc
then make more complex maps, dont make a huge project for ur first map
it will be bad and ull want to scrap it as u learn that everything u made
could be done better and more efficiently

Try and keep off of the square design most maps look like. Try and if you can go for quality over quantity,

Valve Hammer Editor, I create - I edit the maps only there, it's convenient, simple and cozy!
