Why not ask around, if there are more people who'd like to do this and then make a usergroup out of it to help people who have problems with their maps?

It could be like the A-Team, except for map making. The...H-Team? :lol:

On-topic this sounds like a great idea LP :thumbup: . At some point down the track I'm probably going to need this.

There's no problem with optimizing other maps but it is important to know this from Tophattwaffle's FAQ.

No, N O, no. N to the O. I would rather see you struggle though a problem, and learn from it than have me fix it. I'll be there to help you as much as I can. But face it, you came here to learn, and learn you shall. I've scrapped many maps in the name of learning, and I think it's gotten me pretty far. So once again, no.

That's why I make a videos so hopefully people will also learn from what I do to their maps

I also planning to make video about visleaves and optimizing, and examples, but these kind of things are only good if they have voiceovers, and I sux with that. But maybe I'll try anyway.

Do it! There might be hundreds of tutorials and videos about it already, but they mostly deal with very simple problems.

"Fortunately, this map's pivotal point is this corner. So we'll put a diagonal hint brush here, and we're done! The map is now optimized!"

Let me optimize your map
