I swear to God that D3Radiant didn't let me type values less than 1 into the "Fit" boxes until today. I fucking swear.

Also, congrats shrimp-boy! 

Congrats, and good luck with it, hope it's all you expect. 

if you're not lying, I had no idea you were hireable, no offense... but you know, industry standards and all. Congrats asshole. Now enjoy the god damn harsh Wisconsin weather. 

All of those hours poured in to speedmapping have paid off.

Enjoy the non-East Coast weather. 

Congrats Scampie. You realise of course I'll be blaming you from now on. 

go make us some cool game now. ;) 

...nice one! and, I'll save the praise till I see some product ;P 

good luck man, don't let the (inevitable) shit grind you down. and enjoy it for what it is, a great gig in the sky. 

Congratulations Scampie...

...and suck it up, Phait! 

Hold out for something bigger. 

I haven't seen Scampie release anything but speed maps, must have some good portfolio stuff tucked away? 

Been to his site? Lots of different maps, mostly Q3. Some mod stuff in there too I think. Lotsa neat pics.

Plus he "influenced" Raven's decision by giving "blowjobs." 

agr and 2 hh3 maps are very impressive.

Good luck scampie! 

u go scampie! 

cnp from blues...

"Shocking" Irrational Announcement Tomorrow?

There's a System Shock 2 Retrospective on GameSpot (thanks Ant) that looks back at the highly regarded action/RPG sequel. According to the article's conclusion, this interest is more than academic, as they tease plans for an announcement related to all this tomorrow:

But why even look back at System Shock 2 at this point? Because Irrational has been, and it plans to make a related announcement this Friday (tomorrow). The studio has decided that it wishes to further what it started in System Shock 2--to work on games that promote "emergent" gameplay--open-ended exploration that offers many choices and combinations of options to players. You'll see what we mean tomorrow. Be sure to come back then.

ss3!!?? 

Zwiffle: I hear dickgirls had a lot to do with it, too.

scampie: now you get to make maps for mediocre games! Congrats! 

Welcome aboard!

I doubt the Wisconsin winters are worse than Maine, but we'll both find out, since I'll be experiencing my first one as well. I'm not too worried, since I spent a number of years in Colorado (a couple at about 9000 feet).

(and yeah, Zwiffle has a point, the blowjobs probably did have some effect on the outcome ;) 

Well, great news for you.. Good luck in your future job! Congrats... 

Congrats dude! I wish you the best of luck. I hope you don't disappear altogether from Func_msgboard and Speed Mapping. 

Good luck hope it goes well etc etc.

I know you will disappear from amateur mapping and possibly from the community too but hey ho you're going for the pro mapping thing and that's cool. 

Even more exciting than shrimpbler getting hired, METLSLIME FINALLY GOT RID OF THE RESET BUTTON!!

Hurrah, now I can actually post shite on func_ and all of it will get submitted! 

might be useful, ydnar has released bspc2 :

You could do that before, but it used to require reading comprehension. 

Thanks guys :D 

To the scampmeister :) Yet another func mapper for me to be jealous of!
