Idea is to encourage newbies to build a quake map, and stick them all together. Anyone is welcome to join, just add yourself in here:

The recent DUMP projects for doom have been good motivation to get people into mapping, or for old hands to do something casual. I started building a quake map and decided someone should start a QUMP project, although I'm a total noob to quake mapping, hopefully I can learn what I need to put this project together over the next few months. If a more experienced mapper wants to take over as organizer, I would be grateful, but I'll do what I can in the interim.

Manchester's Leftovers Is Done! 
Congrats 
Nice job Daya, looks properly qumpy ;) 
Looks Very Promising 
Kind of e2m2 meets jam6_daya meets quothescape.


Just a minor observation about the name of the map (and jam6_daya, for that matter):

The word "leftovers" in English refers primarily to uneaten food that is "left over" after a meal. Maybe there's a reference I'm missing, but to me, "Manchester's Leftovers" sounds like the chicken and rice Manchester has not finished and is heating up in the microwave the next day. Perhaps "The Ruins of Manchester" would be a better name?

Or better yet -- isn't French your first language, Daya? Why not give your maps French titles? It'd be so much more interesting, in my opinion, than yet another English or German name (e.g. "Shlossherr"). 
Total_newbie 
I get your question, and indeed, French is my first language.

The thing is about jam6 and my qump submission's name, is that it's kind of a play of words. The idea behind using "Leftovers" is that the place they're referring implies their construction, which then dumped away the unessecary bits to be forgotten, like in a junkyard dimension, hence the term "leftovers", but on a metaphorical level.

Thanks guys, I joined discord now. Tomorrow I'm going to figure out how to use it, and see what you've published

Today I finished the basic layout of the map, and proceeded to the creation of detail and lighting. I hope that screenshots will be after the weekend. 
 
Nice work Doomer! look forward to seeing what you've made :) 
 
Hey guys, I'm afraid I'm going to have to duck out. I was hoping to finish up my map when I finally got some free time in the last week of April, but unfortunately I got extremely sick and was unable to do anything. I do plan to finish and release the map but to be honest going into crunch mode at this point would be to the detriment of the map. Things are looking busy again so I may not be able to anyway. Sorry! 
 
All good man, we still have until the 17th to finish maps off, and even then that may get extended if people need more time. Its all about getting people to make something they can be proud of, so up to you if you want to still try for a finished map or just chill :) 
THINGS ARE COMING TOGETHER

It could be getting towards the time to get HYPED! 
Very Nice 
Congratulations on your project HexenMapper, it looks like Qump will soon see its release?

Nice trailer, cool music. 
 
We're getting closer, still quite a bit to do, and some maps are still being built. In the end its about supporting those mappers until they have something they can be proud of, so there's no set date for release yet :)

Soon though... 
In Terms Of My Map... 
... it is safe to say this year :D 
 
Over 9000℅ speed, and it will be 2-3 weeks 
 
9000 plus* 
I Love Everything About This Thread 
Nice little trailer there. Great job everyone. GO MAP :) 
In Progress 
Oh, my early shot in the trailer. Thanks :)

Now I have finished the basic lighting and some detailing. During the next few days will be to place items and monsters.

Maybe I not be able to finish map at the deadline. 
 
We can extend deadlines if you need more time doomer, its no problem :) 
00rt... 
... 
Just Being A Dick... 
...get amongst it Qumpers! 
Love The Trailer! 
keep up the good work! 
DEADLINE 
We are extending the deadline to the 30th of April, as we still have a few mappers mapping, and this project is all about helping people make something they're proud of!

Best of luck everyone, great job to those who have finished so far, we have some very cool maps so far :)

Unfortunately we will not be accepting any new mappers to the project at this stage, those of you who want to join from now on will have to wait until QUMP2 (assuming that actually happens!?) 
PROGRESS AND THE FUTURE 
Greetings all, we've made great progress over the last few months, we have around 7 maps completed and submitted or in their final stages of mapping.
We still have 3 - 4 maps still being built, and so we're helping those guys/gals out, we have some goals over the next few weeks to help them make some good progress.

So we're likely looking at releasing towards the end of this month, but in the end this project is about helping new guys map, so we'll see how it goes.

Cheers to all who have helped so far, certainly good to have some old hands who know how quake works to guide us. 
Good Luck 
Well

I had to drop put as my school had exams_then family issues and many many other things.

Now I lost a certain wireless keyboard and mouse receiver.

I am happy that you guys are still mapping.Good luck.

You are the future of Quake and I wish you the Best of luck.
