This is kinda like a question for designers who been desinging for a long time. Designing in general for any age of series is getting really boring, for me, i dunno about you. but i'm just thinking of quitting desinging for age of series, i'm just gonna finish my last scenarios since i already started them. i mean, if a person wants to make a really good scenario, it would require Time, knowledge with the editor, and other stuff that i cant think at the momment. What do you think?
LMAO!!! Who would have thought someone in the top sets for everything at school could be so dumb as to try to remake the greatest ever scenario without asking its creator. LOL.
On subject of being bored with designing: The editor is too limited to support everything you want. To do that you would need to write a book etc.
woah, what I meant was that it would have some slight relations to shilmista not that I was going to steal the scenario or anything like that

If you find yourself getting bored of map designing, well try something else, have a go at modding or making a utility program. As for a shortage of ideas, I never get that problem, like the people before me have said there is always an old file that can be improved, for example I am currently working on a new version of Shilmista and it is going to be massive.
I already tried something else. since i got so bored of designing, i learned to make new units, edit textures and animations. i also design for other two games.
but is just that designing takes up time, and well, i'm getting kinda lazy. i'm working on 4 different maps, like the grand theft auto which is 1000x1000, and i'm just way to lazy to finish it

Someone suggested to do modding. Well, I'm already creating involved pieces of modding, like model-, proto-, and anim-editing (texture editing requires a good painting program, so I don't do that). I have recommend that to everyone, I find it even more funny than designing...
thats the bad thing about texturing. you need to have a good program or else your mod will have more chance of being bad.
@EaZY Ben, not really, the aom editor really allows you to do a bunch of stuff.

I agree. But the point is, that's why Auron started this thread, scn design really may get boring. So if one feels like he has enough of it, I'd suggest to have a break or even to stop it, since there're many more much more important things in life to do, that have nothing to do with a computer...

Same
and you obviously misunderstood me when i said he editor was limited. You cant do EVERYTHING on it, but, like i said if you wrote a book, the boundry is your imagination. I mean, you can't make, for instance, a Matrix scenario for AOM, can you?

actually it probably is quite possible, I mean with the power of modding and all you could make custom animations and terrains and have a pretty descent matrix scn

I agree, designing scenarios is becoming somewhat repetitive but extending them with custom AI, and mods can help. For those looking for something Challenging and new, consider designing new levels for Thief 3 that will certainly require more skill than AOM!!!
P.s. Thief 3 comes out on Wednesday

Coming up with ideas is quite simple for me. Most of the time, I'll be watching TV and something will just jump out at me in the show or movie and thats where I go from there. It will most likely take me a long time before I get bored of making scenarios or until my Campaign is finished.

Excuse me... I have been designing scenarios for over a year. Just beacause I have only been coming onto AOMh for a little while does not mean that I am a newbie.

I know without clicking on this link that it is the matrix reverse.
I try to be positive, do a good thing, stop auron2 from leaving and all i do is get critisised ( and dont tell me you did not mean to offend me as it is pretty blatent ).

ohhhh anthony's getting stressed. Well, I don't think it so offensive....if you are new to AOMH, therefore you probably wouldn't know about the matrix....

Behave yourself, Ben, and don't bother other forummers (again).

well, thanx antisback, but still, i just got other things to do on weekends. i just got a job during this summer + other things to do + i'm totally bored of designing, and maybe i'm gonna start playing supremacy rated games on my free time.
i'm gonna release the template of my canceled project grandtheft auto: vice city so anyone can do whatever the hell they want with it.
after more than 4 years of designing I'm still not bored of it
began with aoe, uploaded with aok/tc, fiddled around with ee, fiddled around with aom, uploaded and is still working with empires, has decided to give aom another try
Bah.

No, because you certainly know why I said that and because I will never again waste my time to try to teach you sth or to try to start a serious argument with you.
I don't know who you could have wasted time... You have never thourougly read what I said, nor tried to understand it. And I can't imagine you tried to understand it, were slowly reading and thus it took you so much time, either. Face it, you haven't wasted time. Though it would have been worth it.
We're going OT and I don't want to continue this.

Yeah, well, if you really want to know my honest opinion of you: check count dracula... What ever anthony
You should have had a look at the Community forum, I got a three days ban . BTW, check out the comments on Count Dracula, and see how off-topic and impertinent some people can get... From page 5 off, from DrNefarius' review to be more exact. Ben insulted him, and we started "arguing". Make sure to check it out...

OMG Player, you got banned! Shame, shame. Oh well, you can always give people a hard time on the design forums. Will go over to Count Dracula and check out the action later.
Ummm, not bored of designing yet but I want to release my damn cine for the contest already. I am done, done, done.
