Speedmapping Thread!
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.

I have the Radiant style duplication in ToeTag: select stuff, hit SPACE, makes a duplicate - drag it where you want it.

It's not the construction that's the problem. The problem is more coming up with the flow of the map in such a short period of time. Thinking up cool combat scenarios and stuff is not my speciality under severe time constraints. :P 
I Don't Think 
sm141 is a representative sample, both maps are longer than speedmaps often are. I don't say they're bad, just saying that you're not doing blasphemy if you make a shorter map.
I understand often this thing tries to get out of hand with ever more elaborate maps and thus the time limits were introduced.
All said in good spirit. 
 
Fair enough. That's good to hear, actually. I can reign in my goals a little then... 
Willem... 
download some of the older SM maps, they are usually either short, or have sloppy brushwork, or are unlit :) 
Cardo 
forced me to do a speedmap on irc. Where do I send it?

I spent a few hours, though the last hour or so was battling with a red armor that I replaced with a yellow one instead then. Stupid Ogier.

By participating in this session I make you rest look really good. 
Also 
it's a very small dm map 
Bambuz: 
by any chance, were you naming it item_armor_inv instead of item_armor_Inv? That's the one classname in quake that has a capital letter in it. I had the same problem once, long ago. 
Bambuz 
Just upload it to the Shub-hub and post the link here.

Btw. it's item_armorInv - capital, but no underscore. 
I Wanna Be In The Sm142 Pack 
so I'll email it to someone whoever is gonna make that. It's a tiny zip since I used only about 6 textures. But it's really lousy anyway.

Thanks for the help on the armor, I'll edit the game file. 
This Weekend 
timelimit: 90 minutes
theme: "netherworld assembly line"
sendto: me
deadline: 60 hours from now (so you can squeeze those 90 minutes in your schedule at some point), that means I will compile the zip monday morning european time. 
People Will Definately Cheat 
 
 
Well, you are speedmapping for your very own fun. No-one can force you to do "by the rules". Don't take it too serious.

Finding a time to meet via IRC would be a tedious task. 
I Made One More 
sent it to Spirit again.
If someone else ogranizes, tell me to mail them to me.
It's a bit netherworld assemblylinish in a sense. 
Speedmapping Today? 
Or this weekend?

Or hmm? 
Next Speedmap Theme 
should be "Quake Lake." 
And It Is 
sm143
timelimit: 90 minutes
theme: "Quake Lake"
sendto: me
deadline: Monday morning european time.

(add fog if you feel like it supports your imagination) 
Let's Make That Next Monday 
 
Hulk Salvage 
With the spacehulk competition having burned up in the atmosphere I've got a low-brush map half complete and I'd guess there's a few others floating about.

I'm thinking to finish it by more or less next weekend and kick it out the door, just in the interests of not fannying about.

If anyone wants to mail me their maps as well I'll bundle them up and post the link in one shot. 
Why Not 
pool all the map scraps together and make a chain map thingie out of it. Haven't had one of those since RPG's last map iirc. 
Hm 
It'd be cool, but wouldn't work for mine because of the way I'm spawning stuff in and managing coop starts etc.

Next time? 
Flood The Quake Lake 
only negke submitted a map ages ago. I'll bundle it in the next pack.

The speedrunners would like some bloody mess to run through so next theme is CARNAGE!. Sent them in until next monday, just like above. 
 
Spirit you got mail 
Infights 'til Packetoverflow On A Sunny Afternoon 
 
Theme 
mini - you know those old rats dm levels for HL? Something like that... 
I Dont Know What You Mean 
Could you point me in the right direction?
