Hi guys,

I am a gema fan and I want to start making new gemas.
Can any of you guys please post a tutorial about how to make gemas (AC 1.1)?

Thanks a lot!

start new map , make random ugly pillars and make sure to use a lot of gay, sparkly, colorful lights....

^^ HP joke...

What do you want to know exactly?
-how to make an AC map?
-what's the difference between 1.0 and 1.1?
-I know AC mapping basics but what should I do to make a good gema?

Answer would be different...

The 3rd one - "I know AC mapping basics but what should I do to make a good gema?"

My best answer would be: watch it by yourself!
Seriously, look at existing gema maps: their difficulties, their texture, their length... and you will now what you should do, for example:
-same texture arcibrick everywhere looks ugly
-to highlighted or to dark
-to easy (20 seconds for a gema, this is not a gema...)
-to hard: don't make another impossible_little_gemas, useless...

You can do it if you are as motivated as you seem to be
