i'll include it in the pack next week.

if this is how you experience your easter, you must have had quite a sad childhood. ;) the egg isn't even painted...
the spawn action was fun (although there could have been more), except for when some got stuck in the corners - at least nice sounds then. 

hey, don't worry, it's not my childhood, rather, it's just my current mental state of development. 

not literally. that's been done, I think.

Remember that one CZG map where you have to complete it in 2 minutes or you die? that would be a cool theme... how was that done btw?

or maybe a tribute theme...
do an insomnia styled sm. or do one of your favourite themes from the past... 

"Back to the Future" would be a cool theme... 

this week i will rest~!!! 

drew's timelimit idea sounds cool. let's do it for sm125! which czg map do you mean, though?

jpl: elaborate. 

Well, if you saw the moovie, it's self explanatory.

Nevertheless, here follows how I see the stuff:

The start with a teleport, using "new" textures, or at least base texture (you are in the "present")

The map and the fights in an old-school way, using medieval/runic textures... (you are in the past)... get a key to come back

And the return in "the future" at the same point: use the key to exit...

Well... rather more than a scenario :P

What do you think ? 

making the whole of episode 1 in one map... maybe that'd better fit a turtlemap theme though.
Like have a room of each e1mx. :)

A medley. 

Maybe CZG knows... 

yes, why not. though one would have to think up something more intricate to avoid all maps from being equally generic. the future doesn't always have to be base - in this respect, what is the timeline of the quake sets? 

don't forget sm124! ;) 

So time travel would cover all the potential possibilities:

-> present -> past -> present
-> present -> future -> present
-> future -> present -> past..

etc ... etc .. and it's just an idea... if you have better theme... no problem... :P 

i'd have to disrupt the space-time continuum to make it more interesting... 

I'd go back in time to aprox. 1942, kidnap a certain actress, go forward in time to steal a duplicator machine, come back to the present and start up an escort service of Rita Hayworth clones. 

Don't take the theme away from me. It's all I have down here!
Seriously though, I like that idea. it's like that JF Gustaffason (orwhatever) map. 

Drew but can u play the maps out there? 

.. Daikatana already used the space-time concept... and it was not really successfull... though... 

Sadly, no. I mean, i've got other things. Like a very interesting real life, right now. Just want to keep one finger in the quake community. That wasn't meant to sound so dirty.I know you liked it though. 

Neg!ke, I am going to have to pass on SM124 but, if you get a theme together soon enough, I swear I'll take a shot at SM125 :)

Thx... 

neg|ke i will not have time to make my ship :\ boss is pissing me up all day... FUCK!!! can the dead line be changed for next week???

i think this theme is very nice! and we might have more maps if it come to next week, but maby u already got 2 or 3 maps... let us now! 

trinca, do you think you can manage to map tomorrow? i don't have a problem with waiting one or two days, but delaying the pack for another week is kind of bleh.
so far, i only got one spaceship map (mine) and bam's sad easter one. of course you can also make a spaceship one and send it in for the next pack...

generic,
sm125 theme is "timelimit".
maps that have to be completed in a limited amount of time (gameplay-wise) - if the player exceeds the limit, he has failed and cannot finish the map, or at least will have to do it without weapons/items and other annoying things...

drew will never play quake again. 

:\ is the chinese chicks take him all the power...eheheh

i will try negke but tomorow is holly day in Portugal... if my kid give me some time to map i will try for sure i promiss! 

so, any luck at overcoming holiday lethargy? shall i wait some more?

looks like it's going to be a pretty meager pack again, even though i've done another small map (which sucks, but at least served as good exercise to see how kell's void lighting technique works)... 

man i start it :\ but my wife was pissing me up do help her clening home... so i quit when i had a few wall�s :\ i realy just can map at work were nobody piss me up!!! 

then i'll just release the pack now and you can finish your map without pressure until next week.

btw. i already told you several times: get rid of her, by any means necessary! :D
