Topic: Jack of all trades, But mapping mostly
I was talking to AQUILLA and he suggested I apply for a position as a mapper so here my application;
Name: General Un-Co (IRL: Matt Farmer)
Email: uncoma@gmail.com

Location: Melbourne, Australia
Age: 17
Do you own BF2: Yes (and SF)
Mod Experience: This doesn’t really count but, I’m probably the longest lasting forum member over at bf40k. I also made a small lord of the rings Mini-MOD’s for AOE-II and Warcraft: III, just mucking around really, I didn’t make any of my own models, I just made maps and tweaked the units a bit.
Expertise In (Explain what you are good at from the following. Fill out all positions that apply.)
Coding: I know; Q-Basic, VBA6, VBA.Net, Ti-Basic (lol)
Tweaking in editor: Not entirely sure what you mean by ‘tweaking’
Editing .con files: To make the map Shanghi train-yards (see below) I had to manually add teams to the map editing the .Con files (SF teams cannot be added to a map through the editor), some other nessisary tweaking needed for mapping.
Animating: I know some basic Flash haven’t tried 3d animating yet
Modeling: Absolute basic G-max knowledge enough to make the model shown below, willing to learn though.
Texturing: Not my cup of tea
Mapping: I consider my self a good mapper, with a strong knowledge of the editor and it's features, although I’m sure Wrafe would put me to shame with his skills.
Sound Engineering: I failed year 8 music…
2D Art Designing: I’ve used Photoshop once or twice…
URL of last Mod: N/A
Other examples:
I am also 3/4's of the way through CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Asscoiate)- A cisco network administration and design course, i don't know if this helps at all.
Here some Pics form my favourite map I have made ‘Shanghi train yards’ (I apologise that the pic's were taken in the editor, I spent 2 months on th map and then one day it started to CTD and i didn't have a recent backup):
And heres some pics of my only model: (I haven’t done any work on it in a while)
