Map Jam 9999 - Contract Revoked / Quoth / Knave
Ok, it's time to start Map Jam 9.

Today is 15th anniversary of a great Contract Revoked episode. We all played it, we all love it so Contact Revoked map jam starts today.

Therefore you should use incredible Knave texture set and Quoth mod by Kell for your maps. Details in readme below.

Dark Lowecraftian atmosphere, epic castles, creepy dungeons, fleshy caves, it's all up to you. As long as it's covered with Knave textures.
For inspiration you can play Contract Revoked, Quoth, Lost chapters and many other maps tagged as quoth and knave on quaddicted.

Deadline is July 15th, so you have 4 weeks to make your maps.

Textures and Prefabs

Now go map!

Hey you were trying to help!

use texmex to replace the original wad with the desired non fullbright textures in the DEFULLBRIGHT wad.

I think it's better to have a list of which textures have them by accident and then just excise them.

Yep that's what I was doing, slowly but surely as I found them. But it was pretty late last night so I got everything mixed up. (that's when I posted ;P) I may have time this week to do a revised version or a smaller version with just the fences/lights at least. In TB you can have WADs obey a hierarchy (or whatever the term is) so if you have a fixed wad above the de-fullbright one you are set but I am not sure if JACK or NetRad or QuarK do the same. 
BTW 
if you run defullbright.exe with the "-preview" flag, it will generate one .tga image per texture with simulated dim lighting, so you can quickly spot the ones that have intentional fullbright pixels. Just need an image viewer that can load a bunch of tga's at once.

OMG. I am speechless. I have a to-do list I want to get through tonight but I will give this a whack in the next day or so we can fix this wad up for anyone who may be having issues. 
 
I just tried it on the wad and the results of the -preview thing are a bit hard to see at the moment.. I'm going to tweak it a bit and take a stab at making a fixed wad 
@ericw 
Thank you. 
 
@ericw 
Thanks so much for doing this. OMG what a time saver.

Some detailing left in a couple rooms, minor monster/item placement, and the final encounter triggers are all that remain.

looooking goooood


this is gonna be a great jam 
Wait... 
are there no candles in Quoth?? 
Qmaster 
You can place custom models in Quoth. Therefore candle prop + light above it will work. 
Ya 
Can I submit custom models for the jam? I was under the impression that we were restricted to just what Quoth had. We don't always want to have every jam be its own mod...or do we? 
You Can 
 
 
so how many hours do we have left? and since this is my first jam/map ever, where do I send the files and what's the general protocol for submissions? 
Submit 
To funcjam9 AT gmail DOT com

Check the readme link above to make sure I didn't have a typo. 
Deadline Per PuLSar 
Due to many mappers' requests, the deadline is extended to July 22th 7 pm GMT.

oh yeah readme! totally forgot about it. thanks! 
 
slightly less than 48 hours than :) 
@DelusionalBear 
Sorry for double post hit submit before finishing my thought.

Usually you would include:

.map
.bsp
.lit
readme.txt (you can use this old one of mine for a template and edit where needed)

If you have any other custom files (sounds, music) make sure and include them with instructions for where they should go.) 
I'm Out 
I had tomorrow off until problems came up...gotta work. Engineer's life I guess, work work work even on vacation. No time to finish now. Oh well have fun guys looking great. 
Deadline Extension 
We're almost there, but most of people still require some time for polishing and final gameplay tweaks.

So the new deadline is July 26th 9 pm GMT
Heh 
So the new deadline is July 26th 9 pm GMT.

I had a comp day coming so I took the day off to finish my map. More time is always good though! 
The Thing I Hate About Extensions 
Is that I always plan around what I thinkg I can do based on the initially announced date, and then I decide if I can or cannot work with that. Then there's a surprise 10 extra days and it's a totally different story =/ 
@Zwiffle 
There is always an extension, so you basically add 2 weeks to initial deadline when planning stuff :D
