Your an idiot. And I say that with authority cause I am a bigger one
Asking to make a crap competition, when you have already made a map for it and put it in the MV.

A jumping map? I don't know about you, but I hated the jumping parts of Xen.

andrew_spencer, just to fill you in.

-The previous compo winner decides the next compo (that's me ;) )
-Jumping is lame
-Jumping maps are not the new thing
-Use grammar.
-G_KID calls everyone an idiot. Don't take offence. :)
-Afaik, The next compo has already been decided. We are just waiting for Atom (site creator) to post the compo.

Yah....

Trapt, why don't you just give us attentive people a little hint?

You walk up to the machine and press the "hint" button. A monkey pops out of a small door in the front and hits you on the nose. You leave.

True! I suspect foul play...if a map fitting the criteria for the competition mysteriously appears in the mapvault a day before the compo starts, I'm going to hunt you down, monkeh :lol:

I think I might enetr my first competition, I am going to make a small cave, filled with pixies, who have brown candy bars littered around that they use to evacuate pool parties with!

Thats exactly what trapt has in mind....and you can always use that timer sprite to 'dazzle' the judges. :P
Posted 20 years ago2004-10-12 02:39:34 UTC Post #65509
Oh noes! Mephs is a mind reader!

And no. No hints. And Seventh is blushing. He has no idea what it is. ;)

Everybody hated Xen for some reason. I liked the Xen maps, they were challenging and well designed with some nice sequences.
Posted 20 years ago2004-10-12 19:24:28 UTC Post #65738
yeah, but this guy probably means counter strike.
Posted 20 years ago2004-10-13 07:39:24 UTC Post #65877
I hate all jumping in first person games. Its too difficult to judge whether or not a gap is clearable, so you end up taking leaps of faith. A pretty pointless exercise.
Posted 20 years ago2004-10-13 07:57:10 UTC Post #65895
the xen in hl was a bit shit, but the xen in blue shift was good to be fair but i am a
jump map fan though
Posted 20 years ago2004-10-13 09:19:14 UTC Post #65929
Bshift Xen isn't bad since there's more action and less mindless jumping :P

alot of great mapping BS, you can see why it's so short though.
Posted 20 years ago2004-10-14 09:01:39 UTC Post #66339
didn't like blue shift until u meet up with all the scientits at the teleporta
and then go xen for a bit
Posted 20 years ago2004-10-17 13:57:14 UTC Post #67060
mephs, its easy to make sure you do proper length jumps in hammer. Just make it so that the size of the blocks in hammer are size 16, and then reasonable jump sizes are as follows ::

Length :: 12 blocks
Height :: 3 1/2 blocks

Just ask me if u want me to send u a .map file with some jumps of about the right length and height.

lets make one that you have to either make a cool introduction movie or ending movie to a mod or something!

e have a tutorial on dimensions which tells you what the maximum jump lenghs ect. are. and he was talking about ingame, playing someone elses map.
Posted 20 years ago2004-10-18 08:22:59 UTC Post #67279
Yeah, there's a great one on RUST (thnx to whoever pointed that one out) that describes teh dimensions for all the running/juming bullsh*t.

I like the intro/outro movie to a mod idea, although I think teh intro would be better, and it can be judged on which mod you'd most like to play after seeing the intro video.

Blue Shift was awsome from teh very start, were you asleep through the lift crashing scene? And the train ride, seeing GF, ah, great game was BS

They had figured out some neat tricks after doing hL and Op4, really sweet game imho.

PaLO, remember that's (M)Andy's tutorial and is also here :P

Oh yeah, but it's probably on RUST too =P

New compo rocks! I've got my idea too...

And I just noticed something. The page display has been added to the bottom now...thanks atom!

Personally, I think it needs the Forum > STuff > blah blah thing down here as well.

And when you post you should have the option to go back to teh main 4 forum list.
Posted 20 years ago2004-10-21 06:05:33 UTC Post #68058
the only thing i liked about Xen is that fact that it is teh baby nihilant's home! :lol:
