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.

when I mapped at work all worked fine... at home :( cant see range of lights and the lines of a single brush in 3D :| 
 
guess I will have to change editor...

Chainmap Idea: City Theme 
Inspired by this recently released map as well as others, I propose a CITY/realism themed-chainmapping event.
Something involving dark, cramped alleys and filthy backyards, old storage buildings and abandoned tenements. Possibly even some sewers beneath. Think Kingppin. Not so much big and open suburbs obviously (remember VIS and Quake's style). A canal might work.

This should be kind of easy to make (boxy design is probably even desired here) and, most importantly, possible to join without too much additional effort or reconstruction if done right. I would volunteer to merge the maps, fix stuff and add gameplay if necessary. But of course this could also be done by several people, each one producing his own chainmap from the sources.

Texture wise, I'd say the stock ones are good, many bricks, a variety of metal and some windows. Kingpin would work, too, but it might also make it more complicated as those textures seem to demand greater attention to detail.

This would be a nice thing for a weekend. A couple of hours, maybe a day for each map. No turtlemap-grade stuff.

Anyone interested in such a project? 
Sounds Interesting To Me 
 
Hmm, not too thrilled with the theme. Normally I'd be down but that just seems boring to me. Sorry bro. 
How About A Left 4 Dead Theme 
achieved by using quoth (or you could use id progs somehow). Attempting to achieve the L4D gameplay mechanic by creating a sandbox which can only be entered (by monsters) from points which are too high up for the player to jump (without trickjumping that is).
i.e. set up a sequence of func_hordespawns which are triggered by a sequence of trigger_relays, and the exit is only accessible once the player (s) have killed the last wave.

Which isn't much like L4D actually, but its kinda close. Lol - remember Quonqer? 
I'll Give It A Go 
I'm super rusty, but this could work! 
I Guess This Requires Monsters To Be Spawned Alert 
I'll give it a bash :) 
 
I'm in a lazy faze :\

And theme doesn't inspire me much, sry 
If I Can Find The Time... 
I'd give it a go :) 
Don't Forget 
don't forget the exquisite city themed episode that Negke released a while ago, for reference and inspiration
