Why do you make maps??

The reason i make maps is:

I like it!

Good.

For most, mapmaking for warcraft 3 will never be more than a hobby. So if you don't enjoy doing it, for the love of God, stop.

yea. you get better the more you do, but never focus on quantity. just quality ^^. use peoples advice on your next ones (or that one) assuming that they give positive criticizm (of course, thats rare on this site... )

for me... maybe jus to show those show offs who think they can do a better job.. and a lil bit of hobby and fame i guess =P don mind the fame part (im jus human)

I also make map becaus i love it!
But i can't start makeing a map finish, example a big rpg map.
But small map i can do
example EZ save/load code 1 and 2.
But yeaa i love WE!!!
I hope blizzard make a model converter to 3D program.

im making maps cuz i always wanted to learn how to use the we lol
and im a big fan of gothic 2 and other rpg games
and also its really fills good after u did a good job
for example if your trigger fully works like you want it to

Because I always learn something and the feeling "I made it!" feels so good. Of course it's nice to see your own map played and nice to have feedback if someone likes it. Fame would be cool too, but i don't see it as reason to make maps, maybe a reason to stop mapping.

Well, i just make maps because i'm rather that "map maker" style than gamer.
I started it with tho good old Doom 1. I had a few map making tools for it, and i made a quite a few maps to it (however i didn't had internet connection at that time, so i could not share my work...)
I also made maps for Quake 1, and i tried a few for WK2, Red Alert and SC, but these few did not offer the freedom i always wanted in map editing. But then came WK3.
The first maps i made were RoC maps, WarChasers conversions (with all-new heroes and stronger enemies). I tried to make several 2 player RPGs, but none of them got finished.
Now u can c what projects i'm working on currently.

Frankly i dunno why am i doing it. Perhaps i need more than gaming.

Just because it's funny

I build maps because I want to play on them

I'm makin maps because I like to create something, and with WE/WC3 you have a perfect tool for it. I also made maps for Starcraft, Freespace 2, Serious Sam (only a bit, nothing serious) and Age of Empires 1&2.

Sparks of creativity make me do maps, and to prove those ****ing map rippers they suck when I make a map about 10 times better in balance etc at their same ol' 400 kb.
I also do it because extending the limits to a good degree is something I like

i make maps becuase i have so many ideas and also i get inpired by other maps and want to play a game like it but better so that is why

i make maps because its fun and my warcraft has been having hissy fits latly and shutting down so i got nothing better to do (i dont have a life)

I make maps because I enjoy it, and mapmaking one of my favorite hobby. I love pouring my idea into the map, making something different from any map in the world, converting an RTS game into other type of games, I really love those things I also make maps for warcraft2, starcraft, heroes 3, heroes 4, and counterstrike But I like WE best.
