Post the worst map you ever made, an why.

:postpics:

This one was mine
made mid 2008

Image

This is pretty self explanitory why this is my worst map.

Number of world brushes: 7716
Number of func_detail: 0
time to compile: 3hrs

This map would simply crash the engine if you used a flashlight of any kind

Note to beginners.
Always optimize!
Use func_details where necessary!
Don't make a map that splits the vis leaves like crazy!
No micro Brushes!
Know your tools well!

Worst one I (remember) ever played(ing) was a portal version of "I want to be the guy" (ie: The hardest game ever) but, was badly made, all but (or seriously) impossible, and was full of HOM errors (missing textures).
It was a good (passable) idea, gone bad.

Wow, fuck that.

I think I remember this. Everyone said the map sucked and the author came back saying "what's wrong with you people, don't you enjoy the gameplay from Doom and Quake where you had to press use on every surface to find out what does what".

Now I want to find the thread.

EDIT
That was easy.

I think the worst map I made was the first Capture the Cube map. It didn't have enough stuff in it. I don't think it's actually terrible, but since I only made 3 maps so far, CTC 1 wasn't as good as Revenge of the Angry Turret and CTC 2.

Crazy is as crazy does.

As for me, I'd have to go back to around 2001 when I was using worldcraft for goldsrc and thankfully I have nothing from that time period.

"Comments welcome but may not be read" is my new catchphrase. Relatively speaking, an old Syndicate map for Quake of mine was supposed to be the greatest achievement of mankind: it turned out it was too big to even contain 1/10th of the buildings I had prefab. Image
