After looking through 5 years of posts , what i got is that the only thing that works is say a theme and a date, not proposing things. I liked one of the themes Cocerello posted in his list sooo...
THEME: Islands. DUE DATE: The pack will be released Monday May 20th, post it here or email me or whatever before then. 1 week map, 1 day map, 100 minute map... whatever you'd like to do. Alright first idea goes to the bin
-its a lot of work (atleastfor me) -with my experience with the coloseum i made the other week i probably hit some limits with the way i construct buildings with tons of arches -just found out there already is some fort boyard videogame anyway -sun is shining lets go outside! That's the best if you don't have time or motivation. And, who knows, it can get fun later and you regain motivation to expand it. ;)
I'll be waiting to see your amazing works. Okay I'll see if I can get something together. Never done a speedmap before so I have a few questions.
Islands or Island? In other words, at least two? Or is a singular island something allowed? Due Sunday (19th) at Midnight? Or Monday (20th) at noon, or when?? Time limit: Self imposed!?!? hrm, okay. Is the intention to have the map completed in all one chunk of time or just made before the due date? And Rules?: Start from scratch or can I use existing stuff from my ideas.map? Standard progs.dat, standard quake only? Readme file required? Or just a brief description that Spirit will put in an sm170.txt? Oh and http://speedq1.leveldesign.org/ is a dead link. Island or Islands, doesn't matter (themes are not the most strictly enforced things)
Due Monday whenever I wake up and put the pack together. Timelimit is whatever you want. Basically the stance I'm taking is that "Anything under a week counts as 'speedmapping'". The idea is that you should start from scratch. Use standard Quake, or at least a very common mod like Quoth... the pack will only include Speedmapping is just to encourage people to map and try cool things. Not being that strict about all the rules! Timelimit is whatever you want. Basically the stance I'm taking is that "Anything under a week counts as 'speedmapping'".
This is intended so that people can put something together whenever they want and around their schedule. If you have the whole week free and want to spend the whole time making an amazing speedmap, go for it (though, maybe you should just release it as a proper release!), if you want to spend 20 minutes a night for the week, or just 100 minutes on saturday, those are fine too! In the end, the idea is just "GO MAP". http://www.quaketastic.com/upload/files/single_player/speed_maps/sm170_pack.zip
2 maps, sm170_digs and sm170_scampie negke promised me a map today, but apparently fucked up :_( always a good theme, that one.
Although I'm working a FUCK TON the week before that, so no promises whatsoever. planned a bit longer route & some more secrets but at somepoint the bugs and errors started pouring in and it became a rescue mission. Tried to keep it easy but still somewhat of a not to frustrating challenge. And the secrets are for those who like to up the challenge a bit. (the free void teleport makes one very easy to do cheap, but else some might find the basic challenge to frustrating)
