Func_Msgboard: Speedmapping Thread!

Posted by - on 2003/12/06 18:37:36

From now on, this thread will be the place to discuss speedmapping issues. This will also be where all speedmapping events will be annouced. This is just an effort to keep General Abuse on it's topic of 'anything' rather than being about speedmapping every weekend.

Theme

#1995 posted by PuLSaR on 2007/04/19 18:05:04

what about making a map where every brush must have the same texture on every surface? One brush=one texture. Kinda new conceptual type of mapping along with geocomp, 100brush, monsterfree etc.

Already Done

I Don't Get It

#2001 posted by negke on 2007/04/19 19:21:23

but yay for a "czg00" theme

Theme

#2002 posted by inertia on 2007/04/21 07:36:38

restriction: only make objects with dimensions of a power of 2, and only textures displayed on the surfaces of those objects

Deathmatch...

Metlslime mentioned this earlier, and perhaps it has been a theme earlier on but how about doing a speed sp conversion of a quake dm level you have made. If you haven't made any then maybe just use id source or use the source of another mappers level.

That way you get the whole time to concentrate on making fun gameplay and the visuals are already taken care of. I know much of the fun of mapping comes from building geometry, but this might be a fun change.

Also, how about rerouting an id sp map to have different gameplay? Maybe that's more of a turtlemap project to do nicely.

I mention this because I am currently making a quick conversion to Quake of an old q2dm map I made and will be adding sp gameplay to it when it's built because I know nobody will bother to play it otherwise. I've also still got plans to work on sp conversions of all the id dm maps at some time, but I have a lot of other maps that need building first :)

Lego Theme?
