I made a second one, so, please, if you can wait some hours, i can promise you that i can deliver you a way better map than the first one I already released.
Also if no one has played my first map, i'll take some minutes for some bugfixing in the first map and link the two of them together. *Fifhtelephant, are you going to release one you too? Yes. I'm not interested to make real speedmap. It was fun 10 years ago. Now we have become accustomed to better quality maps. Maybe it makes sense to change the concept speedmap?
Obviously I've had to catch up on E3 and game of thrones but I'm bashing a level together now that should be done in a few hours hopefully.
This is probably going to be a nice pack :) This sounds like the DirectQ issue, but since you're using QuakeSpasm, I don't know...
In DirectQ it's common (at least for me) for the gound to sink beneath the visible brushes after playing for a while. It's an engine problem rather than the map, and I know MH spent some time trying to find it. As I remember it, MH said it was actually a problem with Quake rather than DirectQ in particular. It just seems to appear sooner with DirectQ. Possibly it could happen in QuakeSpasm as well. Anyway... Use noclip to get out of the ground, make a savegame, restart the engine, and start playing from the savegame. Scampie making an impure not-actually-a-speedmap proves conclusively that the paradigm has shifted. What would Xen say?
whenever it was that I tried to get speedmapping rolling again, I specifically tried to make the interpretation of what a 'speedmap' is a lot more open.
we are not all teenagers with tons of free time anymore, and Quake may not be the only thing we all want to do with our time. letting the timing be open allows people to make whatever they have the time to make. if you only want to make a 1 hour map, great, if you want to spend the week, fine! they are both pretty speedy compared to a standard map that people take a month+ to make. the goal of speedmapping shouldn't even really be about the limitation of time, despite the name, but about driving creativity and experimentation. if the time limitation helps in those regards, then great, self apply what fits for you. plus, speedmapping allowing designers to not care if they aren't putting their best foot forward. no one should feel like they have to make a showcase map when speedmapping. maybe we should just rename this to a 'mapping jam' I tested briefly (up to the first silver key) and didn't see anything weird with Scampie's map on Quakespasm OS X. If you could post more info/demos/screenshots/saves etc. that'd be great.
excited to play this pack! busting my balls to finish this map in the next hour.
Probably will be done by then actually. Just doing some small testing. But it feels so right ;) You guys are finally starting to map at my pace!
Will there eventually be an all encompassing pack? Please let me know. Here is my map entry for the pack. Enjoy.
... says that have a map near completion in the next hours, I'll upload the mappack.
