I've played since AoS first came out, but I never figured out how to map. Can someone please tell me how to do it. Is there a map that is all flat with 1 block as the base so I can build on top of it?

I looked but they didn't help much. Is there a way to just make a COMPLETELY flat map so I can on top of that in game and then save?

editing a map in game and then pressing F1 will save it in your .vxl folder in your ace of spades folder. It would be best to make a height map,convert it, then import the .kvx models so you do not need to do much work.

Right, I know the whole F1 thing, but is there a way to make a 1 block high map on Voxed? Because I know what I am going to build in game (mind you it will be very tedious and take a looooooooong time but it will be worth it.)

As I said you can make it with a height map but not with voxed as it would take months just to make a simple base platform. If you know what you are going to be making then why not just make the .kvx models and import them with voxed then do a bit of in game editing and you will be done.
