Custom Map Makers

Someone asked recently which operating systems do mappers tend to use -

Well, I use Windoze 7 because I enjoy having my CS5 Suite handy at all times to mess with textures etc. I'm pretty sure you could use wine or something with linux but I really dont want the hassle... Plus there is no special procedure for compiling and installing radiant.

Linux Mint 11

I might convert to linux whenever i have to do a new os instalation tough

I use Windows 7 but i've considered using Linux aswell

CentOS for the last 3 years, Fedora Core 1-5 for some years before that, Slackware for the 4 years before that, and my first distro as i remember was Redhat Linux 3, back in 96 or 97.

I have been using Linux on and off for a long time and Unix before that for some time (since age 10), BBC B computers before that from about age 6 (lots of people in my family worked in education and we always had latest computers in the house).

I rarely use windows now. I have another computer with it on, that i use for playing Stalker (all 3 of them) and Counterstrike, which is mainly comprised of the last generation of upgrades i had (currently a Nv GTS 250, 4GB DDR2, AMD 9750 on Win XP SP2). I dont play modern games on it, just games i like.

Win 7. But it really doesn't matter

Good 'ol Windows XP
