What? Why the hell would you nominate another map from layout comp? Have you not had enough of those already or are you just completely out of proper ideas?

I'm going to nominate my own one:

Map a scene from a movie / game, the one that represents this scene the most and does the best ambient, brush and entity work wins! Thats what Penguin wanted right?

Or how about I throw in another batch of ideas:

1. Map any location around the world. (rated on resemblance to the place and the difficulty of creating it)
2. Invent your own vehicle and build it in hammer. (this could be anything ranging from a car to a helicopter to a ship or even a space ship, most creative idea wins).
3. A scripted sequence / sentence contest. I believe one of these already happened before, but it would be better than another map from layout compo.

Is that not awesome or what? I've always wanted to do something like that... I've tried a lot of dangerous spots like bmx'ing, street biking, skateboarding etc. but sadly I can't do this stuff here in London, there are no skate parks around my area and I've already forgot how to for the most part.

Hm, I've had two names on twhl, might as well explain them both.

I was called Ghetto before because I was like 12 and I taught it was cool... Plus I was born and raised in a Ghetto till I moved to England.

As for Skals, I was trying to come up with something more original and catchier than Ghetto, and at the time all of my friends had funny names, so I decided to be called "Skals", which in my language basically means something like a tiny peace of wood chopped off a trunk of wood. Like the kind you use to start lighting a fire. Pretty original eh?

in Trouble with server crash when loading n Post #285662
uh yeah you could of told us what game this is for...

In that case they will need to manually download all your files or properly import them onto the server, if you only add the .bsp file to the server the map will not work, the sprites, sounds and wad will be missing. So see if all the files are added properly.
If they are properly uploaded and still don't work check if your map has any errors, and if you can tell me what the console or game says when it crashes due to the map.

it's not good to do that, it can cause errors, and they won't be shaded properly... but I'll try to find some of the closer func_walls and tie them to one.

in Trouble with server crash when loading n Post #285658
try .wad including your custom textures into your .bsp file (and include all the other custom things into the .bsp as well). Your friend and everyone who plays the map on his server needs your custom .wad, without it it will crash. If you .wad include it, they will already have it when they download the map.

I'm not quite sure how this is done for source engine, check if there is a tutorial on it.

I ran into a problem with the limit of max entities for my second map. I'll try to figure a way to fix this, any way to increase the max entity limit? I've got a mod format so modding and coding shouldn't be a problem as long as someone can do it for me. (I can't really, I have no idea how to)
