Fine fine fine....
Mine won't give you seizures and it doesn't look all that great.
But there's a puzzle and an ending.

One more, Trempl000r.

And then Atom and I can judge them and get on with whatever is next.

I'm making a base map for another mini competition. I will try to have it posted tomorrow so people can work on it this break.

Pretty cool turnout, I really like the idea of this comp. I'm planning to add some shots from these maps to the Goldsource Gold tumblr that I run.
Posted 10 years ago2014-10-03 17:30:35 UTC Post #321927
I have a map-pack compiled of all of the entrants so you could link to it.

The wads aren't included but I guess at some point they should be.

I would but that rar is missing a ton of stuff, the only Goldsrc bsp in there is TJB's. Did you grab an old version of the rar?

I'll likely link directly to the Vault pages as well, and this thread.
Posted 10 years ago2014-10-05 02:04:24 UTC Post #321934
oooohhh... I didn't realize the files were missing. I sent that to Atom weeks ago for judging. No wonder this is taking a while. :|

Here's a fresh download with everything.

Did you get my Steam message, Rim? Your zip file is faulty.

You guys badgered everyone to submit their WIPs(which every single one did) and then just completely blow off the results? U-U-U-UBERFAIL! :P

Bad Atom! Bad Rimmeh is a bad Rimmeh!

Oh yeah that's right.

First: TJB
Second: Crypt

TJB brought it strong with an extremely well crafted map. Seriously, it looks like Source2 without textures when you color everything white and compile it.

Crypt entered a very keenly colored modern art sorta something using color from a palette very reminisce of specific TV show that featured a shiny metal ass.

We need to sort out the prizes somehow so Atom needs to let me know the status of that Minecraft code.

Rim, that zip file of yours has no playable BSP's in it. I messaged you on Steam about it, maybe you didn't see it. Can you repack it? I don't really want to chase down all the authors and manually download their entries.

As for the Minecraft code, I'm getting rid of Minecraft on the server and replace it with Terraria. Soo perhaps a Terraria code is in place?
Posted 10 years ago2014-11-19 01:19:37 UTC Post #322375
Congrats TJB and Crypt! :P

TJB's entry was just incredible, like beautiful music, but all the entries had charm to them. A well-deserved first place sir!

I wish these minicompos had kept going, as they are very enjoyable to map for. It would be nice to see some official minicomps someday :)

Whoa, it just occurred I haven't seen TJB's entry, yet. I'll have to do that as soon as I get the chance, sounds like it was a great one, gotta see it gotta see it.

And yeah, it'd be nice to see some more minicomps, possibly official, too. Wish I had more motivation to participate more often, though.
Crypt Crypt120% sorry!
Posted 10 years ago2014-11-19 04:19:30 UTC Post #322380
I think a minicompo near christmas when everyone is on break would do nicely. I have a nice idea with a new texture pack that isn't nearly as restricting as the colors one.

Texture pack compo would be the extreme opposite of butts. It's nice when one part of the puzzle is included, and I find texture pack compos particularly fun =)

How about we do a two stage compo with that single texture pack?

Stage 1) Make a set of prefabs using the texture pack. You'll need, basic walls, outside corners, inside corners, ceilings, detail brushes, boxes, light fixtures, etc etc..

Stage 2) Using ONLY the prefabs from stage 1, (plus sprites, vis-blocks, sky, lights) Create a map

Interesting idea Tet!

Crypt
Your entry was also pretty awesome. Beautifully built, with some very intricate clipping and some nice cell shading, though I would have chosen some darker textures in some places for more contrast.

That's fits my idea so fucking well. This will be very VERY fun.

I'm just playing some of these for the first time, and by god you-all are creative bastards, and the quality/turnout of the entries, you'd think this was an official compo!

Some really neat flair and ingenuity overcoming the challenges of the compo. I feel at least 4 entries could have tied for first place in terms of quality and execution.

Rimmeh you got to get that preview mappack(ala cubicles?) released soon as you can, so peeps can easily preview these fabulous entries :)

Not sure if This was specific enough, but in my idea each stage is a separate compo.
Take the winning stage's prefabs and make a map with it.
So Compo 1 is creativity with a texture pack
Compo 2 is really lighting, layout and entity work.

I'm excited that people are excited.

First: TJB

I'm liking the sound of this new idea. If they are separate compos, then how would that work? When compo 2 rolls around, do you only get to use your own prefabs from compo 1, or can everyone use any of the entries?

Everyone would use the winning asset pack.
It'd be like a map from texture pack, but it's map from asset pack.

I don't think we've ever done something like this before :o

If understands correctly, Compo 1 is build a prefab asset pack from the provided texture pack, with the winning entry's prefabs to be used in Compo 2, which you must build a map around?

I think it'd best be promoted to official, it's been some time since we've had one. As long as you can get a judge who isn't going anywhere any time soon.
I know I qualify, but I procrastinate on a apocalyptic scale.
