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.

Here We Go Again... 
It's always the same, lots of suggestions but no real decision and eventually no one maps at all. The successful phases of speedmapping in the past went down because someone took the lead and made clear announcements. Not "hey, let's" or "what about", but SM169 - theme: make a map using at least two textures from Knave, DKTe3, Rubicon2 and Fury. Send it in by Monday morning. Bam! 
Go Map! 
 
 
is that a logical AND XOR an OR 
Spirit! 
Ok, I have made a screenshot of one of the speedmap packs for you -

I can make more of these if you wish, I can't send you pictures though cause I can't find your email address anywhere. :P

You could correctly guess Spirits email. Trust me. First logical thing to spring to mind is it. 
Oh Right.. 
I'm being dense today... there's a clue in his profile. 
So, 
Who else is in?

Mine is built but needs to be lit, will be sorting that Monday.

Rule recap;

Rubicon textures
Must include a quad
Deadline Monday

They can be sent to me if nobody else wants the job. 
Didnt Realise 
this was going to happen... doubt I could make anything worth playing in just 2 days. To be honest though I'm not a fan of the rubicon set (yeah I know that's probably going to get me killed around here) 
Stop The Modesty 
And it's fun to just throw stuff together :)

I'm not that big on the speedmapping, but it seems to be about trying stuff out and having fun mapping for a short while.

It doesn't need to be awesome or perfect, just done. 
Ok... 
I've scratched up a little something...

I really can't guarantee completion by Monday. It might be garbage TBH. 
I Haven't Started Yet 
And real life is being an asshole. But I,ll try to find a few hours to work on something. Fifth don't be like that, there really isn't super high expectations and it really isn't a competition. We know you can make good maps, just have fun with t. 
Yeah Speed Maps Are Almost Meant To Suck 
If you do too much work you get accused of 'Turtle-mapping'. 
Yeesh... 
it's completely from scratch. Besides, I thought a turtle map was a map made in a week?
I could make it suck if you want, it doesn't look bad to me.. 
 
I also think that by Monday it very quickly. You can not do anything good

ps. Ribicon 2 is "jf2.wad" ? 
Jf2.wad 
is rubicon, yes. 
You Guys Have It Easy.. 
we used to make these maps in 100 minutes. Sometimes they didn't even have lights in them. 
... 
"Sometimes they didn't even have lights in them."

I could spend 100 minutes deliberating over a cube... ;)

Nah I'm doing some serious copy/paste action here. 
Good Job... 
I looked at this thread again, forgot that the map needs to have a quad in it. I think I know where I throw it. 
Gave It A Shot 
made a hyperdetailed start area that I haven't gotten around to lighting.
Will give it a second treatment tomorrow. 
I Give Up! 
I give up, I really can't get it to compile properly and I can't get the collision to work on the terrain. Here's what I had though -

And the .bsp and .map file.

Maybe some of it will be useful to someone. The idea was that you get the silver and gold keys and then take a joyous elevator to hell...
The elevator isn't done at all but the rest of the level is done. 
There's Still 
Time!

I can't do anything with mine until Monday anyway - so it might well not be lit ;) 
Atleast I Enjoyed The Process Of Making 
Load this map at your own risk, wear safetygear dont have two eyes open at once and send away wife and kids to a safeplace
