I've been real busy lately, with school. Exams are coming round the corner and.....sigh.......i don't wanna study!!!!!!!
Anyway, in my free time, i usually skin than map. Now i skin more than map, and that's not normal. I spend 95% of my time skinning instead of mapping. I think mapping may not be the right thing for me. So should I drop mapping? Or continue? Or do both?

Its really up to you Rox - which do you enjoy more ?? I would suggest you sit down and think about it and decide to take one over the other so you can really concentrate on it..

why not both??? - so what if you skin 95% of the time. I spend about 90% of my time working on weapon mods or server mods but I still map. I've got one now that I've been working on for almost 2 weeks and have only done the walls and a few static pieces in it. At the rate I'm going it's gonna be another month before i get done with it. the point is while I don't map most of the time, I still enjoy doing it - and if it takes a long time to get one done this way, so what. Do what you want to do!

MOHAA rox if there is one thing I like is taking ideas from other people. And you are other people. Once you stop I have nothing to base my map on. LOL just kidding. But still you are a great mapper/scripter and havent seen your skinning so I cant say anything really. But like You I have exams reports research paper due so Its not possible to release my first map until This semester is over (may). So jsut hang in there Buddy

i script, i love scripting, why u ask, some people hate it, but i have a love ( a strange love) for scripting, but i still map/model/skin lol well when i say skin i load up skins and spary them
people gain new experiences from trying new things, but never forget what got u there in the 1st place

from the screens and the skins i have of urs, i'd be inclined to say-"SKIN, SKIN LIKE MAD, MAN!"
but, ur such an asset to me as a scripter (who politely points out my subtle errors), i think i'll say--"SKIN, SKIN LIKE MAD, MAN
, but keep offering mapping and scripting advice..."

u follow?
