You would rather have the submission date be a Monday or the announcement date a Monday? 

yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss

anything else just doesn't make sense :P 

thats right...
and should avoid future confusion. 

BUT WHAT TIMEZONE! :D

And is that 24 hour clock or 12 hour clock????
:D 

Proper map...

Make it so.

:) 

 

some day the third world might even adapt the metric system. 

Hi good people, what about a Carnage map to break the abstence? 

but what do you mean by Carnage? 

that it is related to how in most of speedmaps there is combat against large groups, or fast paced combat, but it is Trinca the only one that can answer that.

About the main topic, as long as it is before Christmas Eve, i can join a speedmap session. 

I'd love to join a speedmap session as well, why not. 

For day 18? 

sounds good 

SM173
Theme: Quake The Way Id Did
Due: Dec 18th 

If you want this for the unfilled date in the advent calendar, please make it the 17th... Otherwise it would get in too late.

Someone would need to write a snippet about speedmapping. Preferably someone who has no other post in the calendar. 

 

Would be better as a longer project and compiled as a full episode. (My plan was to release an episode at a time or all at onceas they did with the doom version) 

I can't translate "Quake The Way Id Did" to russian. Please write more (clearer) 

just think of the "Beyond Belief" pak , its "quake the way id did".

ie. the map that could easily fit to the original game. Misaligned textures, square rooms etc. Basically all of the maps from 96-97. 

Not necessarily misaligned textures - it doesn't have to look bad on purpose! Just simple(r) or straightforward brushwork, not excessive detailing or overly modern designs. 

The DTWID project went a little crazy analyzing the styles of the different mappers... layout, geometry, texturing, items, monster placement. I wouldn't say that a QTWID project needs to go down the same rabbit hole, but it was interesting! 

is when you make a map in the style of the original game. 

Is there a speedmap session? �which theme? �Both? I began to make a Holiday themed one, but i can make another with no problem.

I see that all the days for the Advent Calendar have been taken, so i suppose it isn't for 17. �18? 

I started one with the Quake the way id did theme. It's a runic map in the style of episode 3.
