what is the process of getting a map to release? can I submit an entities only version and once it has been approved make the graphics?

probably not, you could probably start out with that but they might not want to approve it until after because of potential graphic issues (Missing corners, freeze/important tiles set to HD instead of normal, etc)

15:27

however i have limited mapping experience and none in the map submission process personally so its more of a guess than anything

but the entities are the important with whether the parts are fun etc. arent they

yes

15:32

its mostly just gameplay but i'd imagine they want to check the graphics too for any issues

15:32

i mean they might do appropriate testing and then give you the go ahead for graphics, im not really sure.

15:32

but i dont think they would actually flag it as approved

ofc but can i submit the entities as sort of a pre check? graphics take a lot of time as i do them myself

just ask somebody to make design for your map

may be a better question for someone like pipou/another tester

15:34

no idea personally

if your map is good enough to get to release

15:35

designer will agree to end it

cannot submit unfinished map

15:36

u can submit simple design and rework after

i mean id like to make the graphics myself as well they just take a lot of time as id like to make them fit the parts but if thats not possible so be it

but design is part of mapping, better to have good design for good map

15:37

create an automapper and use design for future map if this one is decline

design does not take much time if you do a simple one

16:25

depends how big ur map is

16:26

u can post videos of ur parts here though and people can let u know

3

16:39

heres a part i have a video on hand sorry for the crap quality

16:39

how u think it is?

16:40

i aim on making the map moderate 4 / 5

you can render any demo ingame

16:40

and send here

oh thanks for the tip i appreciate it

so the best would be to finish the map from the start

im too bad to not fail a lot tho wouldnt be very entertaining lol

16:43

Before you submit your map on DDNet Discord, make sure it is already thoroughly tested by you and your friends, parts work smoothly, and the design is finished!

Also your part looks cool but hard to say anything about the map without seeing more
