I made a few maps for homm 2, 3, 4 but nothing spectacular. I prefer mapping for FPS, at least I know how to do.
I think I made about 15 maps on timesplitters,
about 150 on timesplitters 2,
about 10 on half life / counter strike,
remixed 3 duke nukem 3D maps,
about 100 on timesplitters future perfect,
about 15 on far cry 2
and over 20 on rayman designer I think.

I made several very well-balanced giant multiplayer-maps for aoe2.
They are all 4player (2v2 or FFA)
and yes i start from a giant grass map.

Made a few for H5, latest one is the duel map. To make a multiplayer map is serious work, very time consuming.

H5 is still alive and kicking, join us in the Duel Map discord server!
Map also hosted on Moddb

I used to make maps for Timesplitters 2 and Future Perfect. I like making horror maps, with zombies and monsters spawning behind you, lights flickering and suddenly going black. Timesplitters' mapmaking is pretty simple and anyone can do it.

That damn tile-limit restrained my creativity though... nothing worse than spending a few hours making a map and then find out that you can't finish it...

Other games I've tried making maps on are... Age of Empires, Red Alert, Simcity 2000... but that was a while ago.

I'm thinking of trying Forge, but I fear to be a bit disappointed.

well, 99% of the maps available online would have proved you the contrary
I guess my story maps got kinda famous for their high difficulty and the numerous times you get swarmed by lots of enemies

imo, this is my best TSFP story map :
Another fine day at black mesa

it is probably my most famous map :
Lost in space

a try at a natural looking map :
Abyss

a cool arena map :
Space facilities

possibly my best looking TSFP map :
Fishermen village

I have a lots of other good maps, but I don't think it's necessary to post them all

well, now you know you can. you can put a maximum a 200 tiles and 50 items. if you use logic operations, then you can't put as many tiles. (I have a map with almost 15 logic operations, less than 20 tiles and memory almost maxed. and it is about 90% done. not supposed to be big)

1st music from red faction 1 (nanotech labs) and red faction 2 (submarine level)
the other musics are from resident evil 4 if I remember well.

well, if you have some pictures or something, I may be interested.

I'm usually interested in maps made for FPS games. unfortunately, most people can't build anything good. there is also an awful lot of people who build maps which are very beautiful but very poor gameplaywise.

I don't usually release them

There are couple of old maps wich I don't have anymore but you might have luck searching in:

Cs_amazon_drop

Gm_biliskner

cp_plains_v2

I don't have any good maps right now as old hard drive kissed goodbye
