Alpha is almost done! We may have a map for alpha aswell. We have some more work to do with adding a few more vehicles [ Ladder x2 Tanker x2 HAZMAT [Light] Service truck  and touch ups of our skins]. Currently my skin touch up person is out for the week. We have permission from Chris07 [Northview Founder] to use his models ect We have also asked NYCERU Modding for permission to use Tower Ladder 111 from Brooklyn modification. So far one slight bug has been found but does not effect the Gameplay. 2 cars disappear from a construction site. As this bug is not my main priority to fix, it will be left alone for some time. I plan to edit the standard northview map alot. if not make a whole new map. Thank you all for your support! -AMMT Modding Team P.S. We are still looking for Mapping help and modeler. if you like you may be a gameplay tester aswell. THIS IS VOLUNTARY!

To make a map, you need a photo editting program, such as Photoshop, or GIMP. Now obviously you might have to go with something like GIMP as opposed to a more expensive option. I recommend if you're starting from the beginning, download one of the maps from the download centre on this site, and you can edit it in. You'll need to save it as a tga (targa) file and then in the floor editor (F2 under Editor)you can import a texture, that being your TGA file and you'll be able to call that your map texture. 

Hello again. it says the height map is too big. max size is 512x512. and it won't load the map floor. I am trying to load Small Village map. What do i do?

Thank you Newfoundking

I am just saying but, you shouldn't say that because mod has barely started and he hasn't asked for any (I think) we dont know if it might get cancelled or he losses all data

the mod is only about 2 weeks old and yes the mod may be corrupted after some time. But i have 3 saves on 2 pcs and a flashdrive. If the mod is lost or corrputed i plan to try again. I do not plan to stop it anytime though. I am only 11 and have lots of time to work on it. I just need a little help from a mapper and modeler.

Added to the fact he has no plans to release

the reason i have no plans to release is because i may have too many bugs, as said it may be cancled ect.

Hello everyone. I am sure this is a frequently asked question, but how to i make a map (Textures)? If someone could teach me that would be very helpful. Thank you!

(The map is for my modification: http://forum.emergency-planet.com/topic/20442-honey-creek-indiana/#entry298931 ) If you do not understand what i mean for textures reply telling me that and i will define it more for you

To PM, open a member's profile and click the send a message button, or go to the top of the page and click on the envelope icon.

Just remember if you're reskinning to post credits when you show any work, and you'll have to enquire about permission to do anything other than a private mod.

Another bit of advice, avoid posting mulptiple times in a row. Use the edit button to add to a post, or the multiquote function to reply to multiple posts at the same time. I've merged your posts on this occasion, don't make double/triple posting a habit.

Thank you and i am testing my skills on northview i do not plan to release my work at any time unless it takes me a very long time to make my own modles

Pm me I'll try and help you out with the skinning when I'm free.

Thank you sir also dumb question how do i pm you?

You need to learn to do one of the main roles in modding which is either scripting or modeling. If you can master one of these (start with simple edits) you will be able to lure people into your projects but as it stands you have no experience and no skills so no-one will make it for you. You've also advertised for a team of 9 people, none of which to make anything new just script and reskin, a simple reskin mod would require just one person to work on it. Even the biggest mods like LA only had about 3 people actually working on it.

Just some tips I hope you look into some stuff and start picking up modding this game as its fun and not too complicated.

Thank you for your advice i am testing my skills on reskinning northview and i do agree with you that it will take a very long time as i know lots of people will see my needs of "helpers" and will not say anything. But i never knew some of these extremely large mods were made by three people.

Welcome to the forum.

Before saying you are going to start a mod, I would read this guide posted by NFK. There are plenty of tutorials on the tutorial section to also help you get started with learning some skills.

As has been said, nobody will come along and do everything for you. It's best to make a start somewhere yourself.

Thank you for the welcoming and the link and i am starting to reskin northview modification as a start then i want to made my own vehicles to skin.
