'Probable Carcinogen' Was Submitted Last Night...

The rundown (borrowing Skacky's format):

3407 brushes
419 entities

Monsters:
Easy, 15
Normal, 29
Hard, 38

When MFX offered to help find the leak in my original map, inspiration struck, and he asked if he could add a few things, including overhauling the lighting, making a new start area and adding some scrumptious new details. His work was great, improving the map vastly.

The final ratio of work done was probably 75/25, thus he's getting co-author credit in the readme (which I should probably start at some point...)

There Should Be More Such Collaborations

DELICIOUS.

Final Pack

#220 posted by sock on 2014/07/01 13:24:02

I have 11 maps so far:
ArrrCee, Digs, Doomer, Ericw, Fifth, Ionous/mfx, Mechtech, OTP, Scampie, Skacky and Me.

Hopefully RickyT23 will send his map later on tonight and that will make for an awesome 12 jam map pack! The variety and quality of the maps is fantastic, congrats everyone. :)

I plan to create the start map tomorrow and finish off my testing (noclipping to the exit trigger brush on all maps). I have some tricky Personal Life stuff to deal with at the moment and need 1 extra day, so the pack will be ready for Friday.

If anyone wants to do some gameplay / item / monster tweaks to their maps, send me your final version on Wednesday. Same goes for any readme file updates or map waffle.

I do have plans for two more Map Jams so if you did not have the time to enter this one there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.

Great!

Awesome

Sock? Rock.

#223 posted by Spirit on 2014/07/01 13:42:40

I am 99% sure you will take care about it but since I have played lots of random maps recently just a reminder: No map ever should have track 02 as its soundtrack.

Yeah - Sweet - I'll Get It Done Later On This Evening.

#224 posted by RickyT33 on 2014/07/01 14:04:57

I tried and tried last night but I just couldn't quite get it finished. Just need to finish my final area and put an exit in :)

After Talking To Ionous

#225 posted by mfx on 2014/07/01 14:07:44

hes quite happy with the outcome, but i found 3 or 4 things, which should be corrected.

So i�ll jump into it once again, recompile and send it to you, his sockness, k?

Mine Uses Track 10

** Music Update **

#227 posted by sock on 2014/07/01 14:18:38

@everyone, please double check you have music setup on your maps. Add a "sounds" key to the worldspawn, tracks 4-11 are valid choices. (this can be added by doing an -onlyents compile)

@mfx, yep no problem, fix as much as you want and send it to me tomorrow. If I don't receive anything I will go with the version I've got.

@rickyT23, good luck with your mapping tonight, looking forward to receiving your map tomorrow for the pack.

I Do Not Have Soundtracks

#228 posted by digs on 2014/07/01 14:56:45

Can I put any value for "sounds"?

Great

#229 posted by ArrrCee on 2014/07/01 14:58:22

@Eric - I love the dreary scaffolding. Has a great look!

@sock Nice! That'll give me time tonight to fix that water texture and to add the soundtrack tag in there.

#230 posted by sock on 2014/07/01 14:59:03

@digs, the 'sounds' key value has to be number from 4-11 only.

This map jam is one of the coolest things in a while, I hope I have time to play some of them soon.

Fuck me that is a good turnout.

Amazing!

#235 posted by Hrimfaxi on 2014/07/01 20:20:59

11(maybe 12) maps in this pack!
And all the pictures we have been shown
are fantastic!
I'm really looking forward to this!
Good to see so many mappers participate!

Hope my own project will give me time to play some of them during the week end.
