Heads-Up to Custom Call of Duty 4 Mappers!

The official Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare mod tools are out and we’re already seeing a huge creative outpour of custom maps and mods from the community.

So much so we’re looking at even more ways to get your creative juices flowing and even bigger ways to showcase the ‘best of the best’ of custom maps from the community.

The tools allow you, the community, to take map making into your own hands and make your own custom maps for the #1 selling game of this holiday season.

What’s your dream map? Wide open spaces perfect for sniping, or close quarters combat with plenty of cover to bound back and forth from? Maybe a nice mixture with plenty of avenues to attack from and some perfect choke points you can ambush from with the right amount of team work. Whatever you think makes a good multiplayer map, we want to see it. Most importantly, we want your best work.

Heres there deal, if you haven’t already, download the Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Mod Tools (IWiki - Download Here).

In the coming weeks we’re going to be kicking off a search for the ‘best of the best’ of custom community made multiplayer maps for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. Now I can’t go dishing out all the details on the WHYs just yet, but just know that we’re looking for the best maps you can make, and we’ll be looking for them by March 31st.

No need to send them to me yet, just download the tools and start working on your vision of the perfect multiplayer map for Call of Duty 4, and I’ll have more details for you in the near future. However, if once you get started you want to show off some the WIP screenshots of your map as you develop it, some users have started a thread in the official Infinity Ward forums just for that, so head over there and share your progress (Forum: WIP - Custom COD4 Maps) as you await for more info.

One more thing, design your custom maps around your platform of choice, so just because you’re mapping on the PC doesn’t mean your maps have to be designed for Mouse and Keyboard, if you have a cool design you think would work great on the Xbox 360 or PS3 then make it happen, the possibilities are endless on where it could end up.

Don’t forget, we put together a IWiki just for the tools and custom mapping / modding community, so if you run into any trouble or need the help or advice of fellow mappers and modders be sure to check out the IWiki and Community Wiki Forum.

As always, feel free to send me your questions and feedback!
