When this neon jam is going to be btw, during the December or January? 

It was a joke, in the sense that Orl pointed out in the other thread. There is no jam. 

 

 

Any theme is fine as long as it can be interpreted in a very loose and generic way. 

That doesn't require fucking with the default palette, 5 different versions of texture packs, or whatever else.

Jams should be very inclusive and have no barrier of entry. 

Oh, it is hard to tell when it is joke or not. At least this film noir jam came out of nowhere for people that aren't hanging out that much in terrafusion or other quake chats* 

Sounds good to me! ;) 

Pick any two words that sound good to you:

Arch/Arched/Arches
Ascent/Ascending
Attic
Bent/Bend
Box/Boxy/Boxes
Bridge/Bridges
Cantilever
Cavern/Caverns/Cavernous
Cellar/Cellars
Chasm/Chasms
Derelict
Dock/Docks/Docking
Enormous
Fort/Fortress
Ledge/Ledges
Rooftop/Rooftops
Ruined/Ruins
Tall
Tower/Towers/Towering
Truss/Trusswork
Tunnel/Tunnels
Underground
Water/Wet 

Void jam

for those lacking ideas 

Yeah, that was something like I was thinking. I didn't really spend that much time coming up with the words, I'm sure there's plenty more possibilities.

I tried to avoid words that were too style-restricting such as Gothic/Medieval/Egyptian and those that might require new, or a specific type of, textures such as Fire/Gold/Frozen. No reason they couldn't be used though. 

i.e. czg's pants. 

At least judging by the number of speedmaps "czg's anus" produced... 

Void maps. Isn't that what "Coagula" maps are? I've always liked those for some weird reason.

I made a ctf space map for Q3 once. Never got around to putting the final polish on it though. 

 

Verrrrrrrrrrrry long overdue. 

How about Techno Egyptian? 

Just Egyptian/Temple themed. 

Egyptian/temple could be fun. But hopefully there is a little more downtime between the last jam. 

... unless there is a total Blood, Gore and Gibbs, Texan Style Fest ! 

Techno Viking theme

ps
Egyptian/temple => steal textures from Hexen 2 and Serious Sam 

I've been bangin' my head against the wall for months trying to think of a unique(ish) theme.

I feel like every theme and its permutations have been done to death. What was the last really strong, original theme you've seen? IMO, BioShock was the last one, nothing else since then has stood out to me (aside from that niche beksinski themed game).

It seems one of the major challenges of visual design is simply finding a concept to move on. I struggle to think of anything that isn't derivative of tech panels or bricks.
