Func_Msgboard: Remix Quake Mapping Challenge

Posted by gone on 2008/03/22 11:58:52

New Quake mapping challenge in the tradition of good ol' 100brush and Coagula contests. Only this time the theme is "remix".

Game: Quake, sp

Theme: remix/remake of an original Quake sp map.

You cant take first episode E1M*maps though (because Kell is doing them).

get original map sources here: http://rome.ro/2006/10/quake-map-sources-released.html
or http://www.speeds.quaddicted.com/quake_map_source.zip

Mod: no mod

Engine : Fitz ( so go ahead use a skybox if you want)

Submission deadline is 1st June so you have more than 2 months.
(I think its more than enough time, considering you have small maps and the source files to build on. But if you dont think so - let me know )

Judges: yes there will be few, to review and rate the maps (metlslime is one of them)
Im not judging, I will be making a map myself.

people interested so far: Zwiffle, Trinca, Zombie, GomJabbar, Spirit

maybe Voodoochopstiks, Gibbie, Neg|ke�

Post comments if you want to take part.
Please state what map you are going to make. No more than two people on the same map please

(or catch me on IRC quakenet #terrafusion)

I'll include e3m1, but as a preview of the full ep. Most likely it'll change for the final release but it's been almost ready for quite a while.

Don't know if its fair to judge the map the same, since it's had alot more time spent on it than two months.

If enough maps are made (and there aren't any objections) maybe we can bundle the whole thing together in the end under id1 and go for a remake of the entire game . . .

There was a plan for a total remake before: http://sourceforge.net/projects/freequake/
But this project looks like dead for a long time now.

Anyway, the idea is great (about the BIG remake and about the small remixes). (:

Ok, I'll Join

I finished dm2ish, dm3ish, dm4ish, dm6ish and e1m2ish.

How About, Speeds

you change the rules to make an e1 map remix in idbase style. Only.

Give out a wad that has to be used, and acceptable entity list too (possibly fgd). Like no knights or torches.

This post was sponsered by warm thoughts of a certain gentleman in northern Germany.

Yuck

Tell me who that gentleman is and he will get a visit from another nothern-german gentleman who really LOVES base maps.

One Day

I Could Do One.

It'd be fun!

Ha-ha-ha! I can prove that I can make maps with reasonable speeds.

I'll do any one.

#38 posted by gone on 2008/03/24 23:29:23

RickyT23 sure, would be cool to have a map from you.

aard: yeah, but please read the challenge guidelines first :P
bambuz: ofcourse not (its been discussed with many people on tf)

I Could Do An E#M1 Map . . .

#39 posted by RickyT33 on 2008/03/25 11:31:31

...but I am starting to feel like doing a non-base map...

And I've only just found the textures I was looking for - speedbz_fin.wad

Aargh!

Reverse

Ok, not going to do a map now.

I could, e3m1rmx is pretty much ready to go, but I don't want to break the pack up into pieces. If I've resisted temptation for this long then there's no reason to break it up now.

Congrats on the baby ;)

Yes Trinca

Congratulations! Maybe when your kid grows up, you can teach her/him mapping for Quake! I believe this community can last that long!

Same, And;

Is your oldest mapping yet?
