Hey TWHL, I'm putting a competition out there, with a pretty decent prize I'm sure you'd like.
If any of you are familiar with the games Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas, and are an experienced Source mapper, this competition is for you.I want you to map a Fallout wasteland; one with all the dirt, the ruinous structures, the Vaults. You will be bound to the following rules:
1. No grassy plains, no living trees.
2. It must have a 3d skybox that seamlessly makes the map looks as if it goes on to the horizon. (Detailed, at that.)
3. It must have a Vault, but it doesn't have to be connected to the map or accessible.
4. Custom content to a minimum.
5. It must have HDR.
The prize will be the $20 game package of The Ship, The Ship Singleplayer, and The Ship Tutorial. Also, (I'm not sure if this is a limited-time deal that will pass away soon,) when you receive it as a gift, you will be given another pack to send to another friend. The Ship is a really fun and original multiplayer game on the Source engine.
So, anybody interested in the competition?
I suppose a due date would be December 24th: the night before Christmas.
Thanks.
