I'm not at all happy with leg's place either- it's geometry may have been relatively simple, but it demonstrated (in an excellent way) how to use textures instead of geometry, and use them well. It did not deserve last.

Urban Legend: http://www.warwulf-inc.com/pbmappers/ub_leg.zip

Piped: http://zilla-clan.net/upload/867349
Mixer: http://zilla-clan.net/upload/606611

If you meant in one zip, i doubt it - it'd be huge what with all the crazy custom textures.

I think a month is about right, i mean we want SOME pressure, right? Reed and I did COI in 2 weeks and we have a final university year to deal with at the same time!

I think the biggest key to getting it done in time and developing the idea is to already have some skill and idea of how to map and use BSP effectively, then sketch out what you want it to look and play like in its entirety. They don't have to be really good drawings or anything, just so you can methodically work through the areas in the diagram when you're mapping. This should help you manage your time a lot better.

This is the only design doc we had for COI, I drew it while I was bored:

hope you find it helpful!

I'll try to get my usual demos together pointing out things that could use tweaking on each of the contest maps, but things have been pretty busy here lately, being it's my last week of work at my current job, trying to get build 20 released, working out all the details on moving to CA, trying to make the most of my time here with friends, Christmas shopping, etc., etc., etc. I wanted to give a detailed review of the maps with an objective rating scheme, but I just haven't had time, so I just gave some round numbers from my first run-throughs for the rating.

webhead · « **Reply #216 on:** December 05, 2007, 06:29:52 PM »

its ok jits, we understand

thanks for all you do, just the same

Sorry for the bump, but I just thought people might like to see what Reed and I won for 1st place in this contest, as it turned up this morning:

So pretty neat all in all.

Thanks again to Viciouz, Buttaknife and the rest of the guys at GGC for putting the mapping contest on - we look forward to the next one!

Jokes aside, congrats. I just hope the nerf gun works better than mine did (mine didn't

).
