It is common to see that people who play counter strike are either totally into the playing part or totally not.  I dont have a circle of friends who fall out of this category. Map making was’t the topic when it came to counterstrike. I never ever had an idea that normal people could create maps in counter strike. It was recently when I was playing a clan match in the hostel, I had an idea that my college mates would love to see a map of the hostel we live in. The idea of making a hostel map got stronger when our hostel witnessed a riot followed by a cold war sitiuation.

I gained control over my computer only late night on 26th. Till when my game crazy bro could not resist playing GRID at highest graphics settings. Idea of learning to make a basic counterstrike map got revived. I searched for “counter strike map maker” in google and the first link I got was the best tutorial for newbs. The tutorial was right for me, who knew nothing about map making, still I could learn quickly as I have experience working in 3D with 3D studio max. The link to the tutorial and software stuff I found was this:

Learn to make counter strike map

The tutorial was really easy to follow and I could complete my first map in 2 hrs. then it got addictive and I couldn’t stop working on the hostel map till it was 400hrs of 27th. I made a floor of the hostel where we have 2 wings and 2 bathrooms at the end of the wings. CT and T start from each of the bathrooms. Not a good map to play but I love my first work. Here is a link to download it.

First map (nice one)
