Func_Msgboard: Quake Coagula Contest 2!

Posted by underworldfan on 2003/01/16 12:04:59

What!? The second Quake Coagula Contest. Coagula maps are maps made floating in a space void. If you want to download the first Coagula Contest to get some inspiration, ideas, make sure you understand what a coagula map is... then click this link: http://www.planetquake.com/dl/dl.asp?tronyn/coagulacontest.zip

When!? From Now: Dec 28th 2002 - Until March 1st 2003 (all maps must be sent to me by March 1st, 2003).

Rules!? Not many really. Map has to be a Coagula Map! Maps MUST be singleplayer as a minimum, deathmatch is optional. However, I am going to judge them based on there singleplayer gameplay aspect only. All maps must have a readme with them. maps should be playable in standard software and glquake.

Theme!? You can build in any theme you want, use custom textures etc etc ... coagula maps are all about using your imagination, the deliberately surreal setting should inspire you. Download the coagula contest pack above, as already mentioned, if you need more ideas.

etc. The pack with be released on March 2nd. Your map MUST be finished and sent to me by March 1st. If you plan to make a map, please post here, or somehow tell me so I can be sure of who and who not to expect maps from. I want every who maps to get their map into the pack.

Discuss kthx.

Cheers, mate.

I sometimes stay in Reservoir, which I think is a little north from there, but I'm not sure how far. Maybe I'll drop you a line next time I plan a trip.

Did you get the start map I sent last night? Since nothing's happened, I thought I'd better check in case something happened to the email...

Hi Guys!

#296 posted by necros on 2003/07/12 12:33:45

i'm trying to finish my coagula map after all, but i need to know:

what map do i have to link to at the end of my map?

Necros

#297 posted by underworldfan on 2003/07/12 19:19:15

tyrann's start.bsp i guess, is that how it works?

email me/tyrann when ready/with more questions...

Ok.

#298 posted by necros on 2003/07/12 19:24:16

is the map called start then? got it. :)

Necros

#299 posted by Tyrann on 2003/07/12 20:14:25

Yes, the start map is just start.bsp
What's your bsp name? I'll make another modified start map with the extra teleport.

Also...

#300 posted by Tyrann on 2003/07/12 20:22:08

...tell me the map's full name; i.e. the value of the worldspawn message key. Thanks.

Ok...

nesp10.bsp
"nesp10 - Embers of Cruelty"

but... i have an estimation of about 36 hours for a -level 3 vis, which is more or less accurate... i don't have the time for this vis... so, if someone could do it for me with a faster than 1ghz system? (not right now, most likely tomorow(sunday)) if not, i'll just have to leave it as a -fast vis (ew). (13000 numportals, if that helps any)

#305 posted by necros on 2003/07/13 11:56:46

thanks alot ChAiNeR! i'll send it to you later today.

pushplay, are you sure you want to play with 4000 wpoly max and 2000 wpoly average? :P

Yes

#306 posted by pushplay on 2003/07/13 18:51:38

Because those stats have absolutely no meaning to me.

Hmm

#307 posted by nonentity on 2003/07/14 04:00:02

2000 average?!?

Necros,

#308 posted by ChAiNeR on 2003/07/14 06:32:48

if youre reading this, i replied to your mail... i got the map but i need a .prt file in order to vis it! :s

Hehe,

#309 posted by necros on 2003/07/14 13:11:39

yeah. i sent it over. it was late last night, and i guess i just forgot! :P

nonentity; yes, but that's unvised. i have no idea how it will play when vised properly...

Ok,

#310 posted by ChAiNeR on 2003/07/14 14:16:27

just started it now.. had a Base time of 1:12

#311 posted by pushplay on 2003/07/14 17:29:55

I thought that this thing was actually going to be released for qexpo, that's why I rushed the vis.

Vis Update...

#312 posted by ChAiNeR on 2003/07/14 18:39:46

it's saying it has 23 hours remaining.. although that figure keeps varying.. tonight when i'm not doing anything else at the comp it should go faster.

Chainer,

#313 posted by necros on 2003/07/14 18:47:48

don't rely on the estimate until around 36% (on the far right side) i've seen it rise steadily, peg at around 30% and usually settles to something resembling reality at around 36. i don't really know how to read the output that well though, i'd have to ask aguire.

Damn..

#314 posted by ChAiNeR on 2003/07/14 19:49:24

its on 17% and standing at 29h

mite be a fair wait yet..

Ungh...

#315 posted by distrans on 2003/07/15 03:48:43

Work is deathly boring, my thesis is stalled, and my girl and I split last night... Please tell me this little ray of sunshine is going to happen soon.

Soon, Just Waiting On Necros' Final Compile

#317 posted by aguirRe on 2003/07/15 12:45:59

of the RVis progress update is unclear ? Have you read the readme (near the end)? There is an explanation of the various values.
