guys, if you map for the default package (AC match style), you must follow some rules and style and it has already been defined, for example the tutorial from Floppy. You can study current default maps and you will discover these rules too.
But i think a potential good mapper shouldn't read them because he gets this way the definition what is good and vice versa. It is exactly what destroy his naive view on this game and his creativity goes to shits.
The real progress is in details. The new untouched mapper try to cheat Cube engine his way, during cheating he produces new stuff (represented in combinations entities, textures, ...), what move the game forward. Do you remember first snow in AC ? ;) It wasn't in default map.
The discussions about Shad maps: his maps are possible for matches but it is arena style maps what isn't default AC style. The definition of good map depends who evaluates. Dev, match whore, noob .... unfortunately AC tends in last version to evaluate maps from default view.
