So im looking into making my own map, figured id test on a small map first to gain experience. Made a afghan-esque pakistan basic compound:

will worry about filling the rooms with chairs, beds etc later. but any constructive crit on the basic layout etc would be great

and a Patrol base, the look im going for is a basic afghan compound converted into a make shift base, not as complex as say basrah VCP:

Looks cool Gazz.

made me wish I could do something to do with modding so we could have Pakistan vs Taliban though xD

Not sure the fire place would be in the middle of the compound :p Gameplay wise coming through that one gate will make for a nasty bottle neck. You should add some more details too it, one compound at a time is the way to go about it :)

Test map is a good place to start, useful for trying out new techniques etc. I still use one when mapping :D They are really useful.

How far along is this map?

Are those white sandbags the destroyable ones? If so I would avoid using them.
