Maybe PB could fix the links and host amazing maps like these, as they are so rare.

b'aww... right?! i mean, probably the cutest kiki gif ever..
I love the idea of an estate/palace type map, and those are some great reference pics guize! =)
Theme is a toughie i'm coming up blank for ideas for that... i'm gonna image random locations and see if any ideas come
I love the original assault industrial/city theme, but i know we want to be original..

urby is the beta still working now after the official release?
if no, you can still edit all your work in cs:s hammer; your work will have to be recompiled in csgo, but no biggie

allow me to qualify now by saying a relatively short period of time. I'm all for the it's done when it's done philosophy.

Indeed Blitzenclaus, we need to plan the f out of this, since the last one was more a free-range approach
No matter what archie does, it's gonna be good, i'm just saying, but yeah.
I nominate skals/stojke to handle the layout right off the bat, since they did such a wonderful job on skals c31 map.
BTW, what is everyone thinking for a theme? should we do a classic map that hasn't been offered by CSGO yet--like cs_assault--, or make something completely new?

i never said we have to finish it asap, my exact words from above:

...though we agree not to rush or agonize about this, it is above all for fun...rufee: it's gonna be csgo looks like, at least for this one, but i'm sure we'll do this again, and i wouldn't count out anything for future projects, even goldsource to do some retro thing, who knows
map/mod, pool/pond =)
it's whatever we all want it to be, maybe it's more than one thing, so i'm sorry i interchanged those terms, but you bring up a good point
i know what i'd like to do and what my vision of the project should be, but maybe you-all have a more-funner idea, so this is brainstorming time people.
I'd love to do a csgo project like Blitzachu and i were shoutboxing, but i'm down for anything.
Edit
Upon thinking more, personally, i like the idea of "map" more, just because it implies less commitment and a fast time-to-completion, but either way..

Ok.
We did so well on the first one, and people seem to be interested in doing this again, so:
Team Mapping 2
Same as before, the idea behind this is to all join our mapping skill to quickly turn out a near-to-professional-quality map we can, in a short amount of time, though we agree not to rush or agonize about this, it is above all for fun
NO set deadlines, NO set responsibilities, though i encourage EVERYONE to step up in a leadership role , especially when the opportunity presents itself, i.e. you have an awesome idea at something you know your good at and would benefit/enrich the mod.
request
can someone experienced with dropbox or similar set us up, so we have a common place to share content right away?

Team mapping and hotdog's crap christmas, as well now the new ones like rchi minicompo 1 and map twhl) are missing. Thread authors at least should be able to edit their posts, c'mon Penguin man! =P
Seriously tho, we should all be able to edit our posts and not just the last one. They do it on GB that way and it works just peachy.

That looks lovely Livewire, big props! I especially love the typewriter keys to arm/set the timer, awesome! =)
The little variations you added are great too, and using the steam as the igniter is also a clever twist. One can easily recognize you thought this out and put the proper effort into in, you have my vote sir =)

Payload anyone?
<tasteless "yer mum" joke once stood here>
It's brand-new, out of the box, he hasn't had a chance to secrete the extra key someplace else yet =)
when you buy the ignition switch from the manufacturer, it always comes with 2 keys(keep one at home and one on your person)
wow cool stuff! i think zero's trigger device(with the key) is a raelly cool idea =)
do some concept sketches and hire a modeller to model it up for ya. Maybe rim would be interested in doing it for a modest fee, and a stake in the $100 prize. (if you win)
actually, i'd be willing to model your idea and unwrap it, if you agreed to paint it maybe. get on pm if you're interested in moving forward with the idea
i'd love to do this, but, if i were you i'd try parenting to rimrook first, because he's pro, and you'd almost certainly win =)

Also Don, you might consider starting a new thread for this
I'm gonna try working on my hand grenade design today after work if i can..

Hey sajo how you been!? it's nice to see you again sir =)
You might need to extract the models and put them into the HL2 models folderThis is what i would do probably.
Bruce is back, pay up cockroaches! Also Nice, madame touseau's yes?

Jeff:
...and you can build your map for any HL/HL2 game or mod.
i don't get your meaning jeff, but if you're asking what games are the prizes, they are anything in the steam catalog.
yes, but you have to agree it's a pretty abstract idea, but yeah i'm as well a little bummed more people didn't jump on too.
The Steam Workshop might kill compos here entirely, depends on if it takes off(which it probably will, especially if they monetize content).

Personally i wouldn't waste your time, unless you kinda wanted to make the map anyway. lots of people are intrersted but nobody is mapping for it except urby, and the contest is invalid unless a minimum of 5 entries are recieved(read above).
just letting you know...

i added ambience to every room, mostly after complaints from u and striker about the lack of ambience in my maps
team mapping and i'm sure some others need to be added there as well, but this one is probably dead anyway mr. crafter. (if we could edit our own posts on this site, it wouldn't be an issue, but now we need to bug the mods, and they sleep most of the day)
BTW soup, would love some ambience advice of the map i linked to, in that pm i sent ya awhile back, if you can!

lawl yeah pretty much
In light of the lukewarm reception(i thought cash prizes would entice people to map?), i'm imposing a new rule that a minimum of 5 entries need to be submitted to make this contest valid.
If in a reasonable amount of time, say a couple weeks goes by and there isn't at least 5 entries/WIPs in the thread, the minicompo will be cancelled. (NEXT TIME i will ask if people like the idea before moving forward)

That's looking great urby! Looking forward to more WIPs from you-all
You shut your whore mouth rimrook! Spoilers!~
I can see it now, urby is scripting an all-singing, all-dancing cabaret out of the HL NPCs. (but really anyone scripting NPCs to sing and dance will recieve major bonus points)
Oh yes sir, any hl/hl2 map/mod are acceptable
So Archie's making me say it, you may not use an existing map, it must be made for the compo

noah! i can haz The TRUE HOMIE Holy Hand Grenade?!?
idk jeff, i would not recommend blender to anyone(especially a newb), it's so fucking weird. (i'm sure it will improve much as they continue to update it)
I think i may actually try to do this one in milkshape maybe; it's been a while, but i remember it being very easy to use, and i'm sure it's been improved since last i tried it.
I like max but damn it's expensive. I've heard good things about XSI and digital sculpting with Zbrush, but never tryed either yet..

Lern by doing is the best way. The learning curve is a bit sharper than mapping tho(i need to finish figuring out uvw unrwap/mapping myself really badly).
We are all spoiled from using hammer becasue it is so dam easy to use
