Here is my map idea. What if a bunch of people constantly traded around a map file, so they could all edit it together. What if people just kept adding to the map untill it looked really cool. We could take turns, and make a list. When its your turn you take the latest version and edit/add to it and then post screenies and the new version on this forum. This could be a really cool map. So here are the rules to editing Supershift, the map.
RULES:
1. Dont Rip apart what someone else just added to the map. Maybe critique, but no destruction
2.Obey the list, if its your turn to edit it, then go ahead.
3.After creating a new version of supershift name it supershift_b(the number that is next in line). Mine was 1 so the next one will be supershift_b2
4.I will make the list/order of people to edit in this post and modify as needed. When you edit the map make sure you add your name in the 'message' key of the worldspawn. EX: by Cusoman,whatever,whatever. It could be a very long list. I will add '- done' if u have edited succefully and uploaded a new version. Just post saying 'i will edit' and i will add your name to the list.
5.Supershift uses CTP1 textures, pls try to use these cool new textures as much as possible in this new map, and u will need CTP1 to even view the map because i used them in the first version. Right now it is just a big box map actually, with terrain done with the triangle method, and an info_player_deathmatch.
6.NO MORE THEN 2 DAYS WORKING ON YOUR PORTION OF THE MAP!
;D
LIST OF EDITORS

What type of map is it anyways?
-
oops, i forgot to mention that. Right now its set up for 2 -flag CTF, tho there are no bases or flags yet. This mode could be changed as its made. I just made it a ctf to start with.
-
Maybe you should have added a little bit more to start off.
-
well i was kinda hoping for that look what is was in the begginng, look at it now sort of effect when it was done. It would be cool if u just wanted to add a box or some thing, you know, to help get people into it. Cuase if they saw you doing it, i know it would get popular. ;D
-
Well I might start in a bit I'm a bit busy right now I have to catch up on one of my maps but I'll maybe add something once I'm done beta 2 for my map which I'm working on as I type.
-
Is the map your working on 'The Tunnel', i downloaded that a little bit ago and thought it was cool. I think if u could build a way into the top of the tunnel, that hallow hallway area, it would be cool. BTW Good work so far. I cant wait to download beta 2! :)
-
Thanks I'm adding two more paths making it less boxy thetop passage I need to think of a way to make it look not dumb for anyways good luck if I don't have a chance to help out.
-
well good luck on finishing your map. i hope both our maps turn out amazing. thanx for ur support.
-Cusoman

Ill do No 2

This is about the fourth time this idea's come up. It might be fun, but there's no way that a good map will come out of it. :D
-
Eiii i hope to prove u wrong! Hopefully a great map will come out of this!!! ;D
Corporal thanx for supporting this map idea! Good Luck on beta 2, cant wait to see it!! :D
-

Lol who knows it might.
-
/me watches as it turns in to a jump map........
-
*does Knack want it to turn into a jump map.
if so, sign up and edit. but I don't see it becoming a jump map unless only jump map fans start editing.
-
Hi,
interesting idea. You might want to get rid of the 4mb BMP file in the rar though, given its 4 orders of magnitude bigger than the actual bsp.
- Rick
-
thx for thinking its interesting, but seeing as their are not many people that are going to download the original, i will just leave the rar file. i cant wait to see what corporal has done with then map! ;D
-
Gaaaahhhh! .rar those things are evil (mostly because I don't have anything to extract them lol) could you make that a .zip?
-
winrar > winzip
-
i tried to post a .zip file but the site wont let me. :'( here is a link to winrar, the best zippy thing ever. this will let u unzip rar files and zip files!! ;D http://www.winrar-download.org/ (http://www.winrar-download.org/)
have fun!
-
I've always wanted to be a part of one of these community maps. Count me in.
-
COOL!! Thanx for joining, after corporal releases his beta 2 its all yours to mess with! :D
-
Is corporal releasing his any time soon?
-
I think 7zip can open rars
and thats free
I use it on my computer in case I need it for some archive reason
edit: I checked and it can
all that is needed is to rename a zip file to .rar in 7zip and your set
-
i am starting to wonder if corporal forgot...... ::) :-\

Hmmm...
-
ok, smack, i am going to have to give you the go ahead on making your portion or the map. i have also added a rule, no more then 2 days on the map or you get bumped. When corporal comes back maybe he can pick up where u left off, but for now you are doing beta 2. Is this cool with you smack?
-
Ok, here i go...
Give me some time, I'm gonna add a large portion to the map, it's way too small. :-X
-
Sure. Make it good. I made it really tiny cause i just wanted to make a good starting point.
-
Well, your starting point now serves as the jail for eliminated players. By the way, I'm making this a nighttime map.
-
Hey, thats a good use for it. :D
-
Well, here is my release of b2. It definitely needs more paths/cluttering/detail, but it's more of a start. Some screenies and the map file as well as the bsp file.
You can't see the original map here, but obviously, it's the jail.
-
Wow. Good Work. and you did it pretty fast too. If no one else signs up, then i'll do beta 3, and if no one signs up from there, u can do beta 4 and so on. ;D It looks very good.
-
A good two hours. :P
-
Ill help if you need another person.
-
well, i would finish the map your currently working on before jumping into this one, since your a new mapper. 2 maps at once is quit a load. When your done with "nameless" then you can jump right in, just post before u start.
