I know nobody will ever use these - probably not even me...

-Edge of the world - waterfalls falling into void, etc 

No turtlemap from me. No inspiration, seemingly no ability to make any sort of architecture as of late. Very discouraging. 

...I recommend you download mexx9. Simple geometry/architecture done on a scale reminiscent of your liking. Very, very effective though, maybe this will inspire. 

I hadn't played mexx9 in about 4 years or so, so when i have time this weekend it will be nice to experience it again, and hopefully i can start to build again. 

i got three turtlemaps so far (headthump, trinca, zwiffle). if there are any others in the making (speeds? than?), please tell me quickly, so i'll get an idea about when the pack can be released apporimately.

sm126 theme: "mini-marcher"
deadline is... somewhen 

I will release it in the future. I just didn't really have time or motivation to work on it over qexpo, and haven't really been mapping hard since either (despite my nick in irc almost always being than|mapping - than is often taken). 

I dug out the DMSP mod for a bit of a blast earlier and I'd forgotten how fun it can be on the right sort of map. How about DMSP as a speed mapping theme?

For anybody who never tried DMSP:

this week is impossible for me speedmap to many work... :( 

Beautiful, breath taking, sexual thought-inducing idea, I think. Didn't you do one of those for a SM once Than? 

Nope. Scampie did though... check the archives... or was it for Q3.

bear did an interesting animal love one once if I remember correctly.

It is SM though, so perhaps you could do something along those lines... quite what, I don't know. Cthons dungeon of bondage? 

Uhm, I was referring to Text_Fish's SM nomination. I don't think anyone should try to top Bears Animal Love SM. Except Madfox, maybe. 

It was for Q3, Q1 doesn't have 'Func_bobbing' ;)

You could do that with a func_train 

I tried something similar with sm122 but attempted to hide the subject matter due to a guilty conscience and fear of potential blindness ;) 

bah ok, generic already sent a map in. i'm going to do one as well today. so everybody else, go map, as the deadline now has to be next sunday (13th) evening gmt! 

AHAHAHA!

...

All 90 degree angles. see sm23_jay.
No 90 degree angles. aard made a dm like this once. 

Official speedmapping site: http://speedq1.spawnpoint.org/ ??? 

...thanks. 

Has anyone made a doom 3 tex'd speedmap yet? I remember there were some problems with the textures being huge, right? were they scaled back down? 

so "doom3 textures" then? zwiffle once said he started one..

anyone working on a map for sm126 - if so, tell me. otherwise i will release the pack in the evening.

drew, when will you be back finally? (or did your repeated "prison break" theme suggestions have deeper meaning in this retrospective?) ;) 

haha... nah, I've kept one step ahead of the law so far... Still gonna be quite a while till I get back home. I'm thinking I might do up a small sub-standard "real" map when I do arrive. maybe. 

so... d3 theme, huh?
who's mapping for it? 

Anyone home?
Anyways - theme suggestion...
UNlinnear - really wide open, many different paths, or perhaps whole sections that need not be seen? Obviously not very SM friendly in all regards, but if one focused on content over quality it could be nice and doomy. not saying doomy lacked quality. sorry. forgive me. 

bacl from holidays!

guess is everybody in vacacion!!! i might have time for a speedmap!!!

so whats the theme??? 

But Trinca, you live at the beach, everyday is a holiday ;)
