so here we go: sm129 theme - "traps"
all kinds of hazadous environments, spikes, shooters, crushers, and don't forget the WETY TRAPS!!!

deadline (pun anyone?) is sunday 29 oct.
monday if your name is generic ;) 

Whatever do you mean, neg!ke? ;p 

friday i was in a pissy mood and felt like making a map of nothing but nigh inescapable and deadly traps and titling it simply Women.

i really think this is the type of speedmapping session anyone could get into

generic - clearly its some sort of timezone joke, neg!ke would never imply anything of a sort of anything to anyone! 

now that the original maps are available, i'd like to propose revisiting familiar places as a theme for an upcoming sm event. incorporate a rather small section of an original map into your own. how about that?
and btw: who trapped sm129pack? 

I got trapped at work instead :| 

good suggestion. you should do that. 

i haven't been able to map, either. and i won't be until next week. :(

revisiting familiar places - dunno, we could give it a try, i guess...

btw. what about some chainmapping again in the near future? 

o might be in revisiting familiar places :) doesn�t take much time and my map is going wel!!!

i received a map by efdat, but where is YOURS??
people, if you have have any self-respect left, send yours in by next sunday! 

the theme is id glue? :) ik might glue some stuff... my idbase map is growing nicely and on time!!! 

what you mean is the next one - "id glue" gave me an idea though ;) 

traps is to eavy for me :\ 

in the spirit of a sm-oldschool-sucking-map-with-an-amount-of-monsters-where-you-have-to-cheat. Ha!
Deadline next Sunday? 

amount-of-monsters-blahblah-cheat-blah-suck-die-stupid-map 

 

to me the gnu licence reads like it's possible to use parts of original maps as long as the due credit is given. so if the sm130pack contains a notice like 'based on the works of ... and released under the terms of gnu' the theme should be fine.
nfscd (what could that mean? :)): go map! please. 

it means the sources (.map files) have to be included. 

the source code must be included and itself be GPL'ed again. also you should include a text file with the license. no biggie. it's mostly called gnu.txt.

otherwise you can do with it what you want. 

I just submitted a renamed version of pypain that was released in the traps thread. 

got it, thanks.
i will try to get something done today as well. 

"revisiting familiar places"
take a certain area of any original map (NOT THE ENTIRE MAP!) from the released sources and build your map around it. be sure to include your .map file when you submit it, because of the GPL thing! 

I totally forgot about mapping on Sunday. I'll to get a map done for sm130. 

howdy folks. i've been gone for a 3/4 of a year now. i wish i'd started speed mapping earlier in life, but what i got to do was real fun and i learned a lot. i can't map or play (or even check email hardly) in my current situation, but good job for you men that keep the quake alive! maybe at christmas time i will be able to squeeze out a speedmap. until then, quake on bros. 

Come on, give us the maps!
At least I mapped this week...
