Hi guys!
Not sure where I'm supposed to submit my entry for the SM194 event, but I uploaded it to Quaketastic: Download link Screenshot (Do people usually even provide screenshots for map jams, let alone speedmapping events!) This is my first ever contribution to a mapping event. My slow mapping speed prevents me generally from participating to any events, but this event happened to align so conveniently with my situation that I just had to participate! The grid 64 rule really helped me lower my standards enough to map faster and settle for less. I still ran out of time, though! xD The session has ended and the pack is almost ready to go.
Only waiting for Mugwump to send over 10Mb I probably won't be hosting any speedmap sessions while Jam X is alive... but don't let that stop you from trying yourself!
Talked a bit in the Quake Mapping discord about a speedmap event themed around nonlinear levels and exploration (no combat).
There was also some interest in using JCR's jumpboots mod from the modding jam. If folks are up for that, the speedmap would start a week or so after Mapjam X releases. (there are a few bugs with the mod we're trying to sort out first.) I got word that there's some interest in a knave speedmap after mapjam X ends, and also that this Exploration / Nonlinear thing may be better suited to a jam (maybe call it explore jam 3).
Will post more info in the mapjam thread once details are sorted out (and once mapjam x is out). So, I am un-calling dibs on sm195 :P Theme: None. Paramount Pictures does recommend you go quickly, however- so a 24 hour time limit has been given.
Progs: ID1. Texture wad: Anything goes. Deadline: May 2nd, 3PM GMT (func time). Submit in this thread, or at me on Discord. fairweather#6969 Yup, another speedmap event shortly after the previous one. This time, it's theme based and we're using the one from one of the most highly rated and popular maps: Honey by czg.
Theme: Honey Progs: ID1 Texture wad: http://www.quaketastic.com/files/texture_wads/honeywad.wad Deadline: May 5th, 23:59 (11:59 PM) func time (Berlin) Send the maps either to my Discord username Danz#1004 or my email brutusdzd-AT-gmail-DOT-com Yeah, I'm aware of Map Jam 1 being Honey themed, but it was never used during speedmap packs.
So I thought it wouldn't hurt to use it in this speedpack. Fairweather is running a 1-hour jam in the Quake Mapping discord. Here are the specifics:
1hr Jam1 Within the next two days, create a level in 1 hour in a Medieval theme. Textures: ID1 Progs: ID1 Deadline: Vaguely 3 days from now - Max of 30 monsters. - Weapons will not be wiped between levels, but I will consider your level's overall difficulty and weapon availability within the pack. - I will accept only - Levels in a style other than Medieval will not be included in the pack. - You can attempt as many times as you'd like, just do not use prefabs. Keep the spirit of the pack! - Levels will be compiled with extra4, dirt and bounce. This started a day ago, so you still have time to join in! No, the point is to make the map or maps in an hour over the next few days and give them to Fairweather to string them out as an episode.
Fairweather has said this is an experimental endeavor and it may lead to other similar projects. you have one hour to make the map, but you can start that hour any time that's convenient in those days. It's honor system... but also it'll be obvious if you spent more than an hour on it :D
Why are non-spam posts being deleted here?
Where are the Pinchy versus Shambler versus McLogenog posts from before? Plans for SM200 are currently being discussed by a cabal of speedmappers.
The plans include a livestreamed mapping marathon with the goal of an episodic release. DM me on Discord for details. So 197-199 are still up for grabs in the meantime? You're just doing 200 due to the planning involved.
