Func_Msgboard: Cube Multi-mapper Mapping Meyhem!

Posted by DaZ on 2003/08/15 22:04:09

I would like to organise a massive session of Cube multi-player mapping meyhem!

The PLOT:

Get the maximum amount of people that cube MP can support (how many is this?) and get them all on one server at the same time to make a huge cube SP map, how cool would that be!

IDEAS:

We would need to decide on a theme to start with so that the map has some sort of coherencey but basicly you have free reign on whatever you decide to build, so we can have one person making a large atrium, then lots of others building rooms and areas off of this, and then more people making another area etc etc.

Is anyone up for this? Apart from being damn fun and a great laugh to try, it should be really interresting to see what gets made out of it as well. Who knows, this could well be the next "speed mapping" kinda craze thingy.

Now : POST!

Cool Idea...

if it's not too difficult, i'd do it.

just give me a time and i'll see what i can do. :) i'm not really good at cube mapping though... i tried a bit but never finished anything...

Anyone Have Success With Co-op Mapping Yet?

I think some actions have to be coordinated to keep the maps in sync, so trying to get too many people in might be a problem. Has potential though, less isolated than speedmapping, plus I'm more a slowmapper ;) .

Ooh Ooh Ooh!

It would just be great fun to try it with craploads of people working on the same map at the same time, it wouldn't be a serious thing really. Again it would just be interresting to see what actually happens! :)

Does anyone know a server we can do this on? Or perhaps set one up for a certain time somewhen that we can all jump in on?

You can easily host 10 people on a cable connection for mapping purposes. It would be better to set up a sever not listed on the cube masterserver to keeping people looking for an ffa game from popping in. I can explain how to do that if anyone wants, it's easy.

Oh Yeah...

I already said this on #tf, but yeah, I'll participate in this, Cube mapping is fun, and have done a small bit of team mapping once, also fun. Gimme a time and day and I'll be there.

Im Easy
