Posted by ionous on 2016/07/22 09:36:32

The time has come once again.
The time to go forth and map, IDbase style. More specifically, Than�s APSP2, a loving ode to water, pipes and plumbers. Map Jamming is about creating maps of any size or detail level over several weeks, using a certain theme and/or texture set.

For this seventh of maps jams, the Quoth mod with be employed. Grab it here:

Any questions or comments, please post to this thread only.

Zwiffle: I talked to Preach about it, and it seems there is not. There might exist one for older versions. I'll see if I can dig it up later tonight.

Base Style ?!

Is it just me or "ugh" and "like less" do not belong in the same sentence?

One Of My Favourite Styles
