Models are fine...
BUT, for the sake of my sanity make sure that you upload a self extracting zip file that includes everything.
That goes for anyone else including textures, sounds, models and anything else.... The entry must be uploaded as a stand alone mod and be zipped properly, in directories, so that the map can be unzipped straight into Half-Life.

The compo deadline is a bit close.
In europe the summer holidays start to end, or ended already, so many people have to master their school and their internet life at the same time.
I think it would be fair to add 7 more days.
The idea itself is really cool.

Idea = Needs creativity, which is brilliant.
I've been back at school for 4 weeks now, and I would love to see the deadline moved back a week. 14 days am not enough for some people.
Think back to last compo. Lot's of people struggled to finish, or didn't finish, and that was a lot longer than this one.
Please extend this by a week, for our sake.

Muzzle, you're on track again? This time I will beat you!
If I'm able to finish my map, that is... some more time would come in handy, but I guess we'll just have to hurry now.
Good luck anyway!

We can submit several entries right?

Post #50856
It's been acceptable in the past and I haven't seen a change in the rule.
Andy: is it really worth a third judge? Are there gunna be enough entries to warrant it?

God, not CP again...REVEEEEEENGE!
Sorry, couldn't resist that. About the judging, software mode has some trouble displaying transparant models, right? Does the second judge run in OpenGL? Or at least Direct3D?
Since I know you don't, Andy...

I heard Andy was OpenGLing, from the man himself.
Captain P, you have some stiff competition this time. RabidMonkey777 is entering, and I have seemed to get better since last time you have seen me.
You need to find someone honest, not bias and not entering to be the third judge. Anthony sounds like a good person to me.

Thankyou trapt
I don't think I'll be entering. I cannot think of a single good thing to do for this compitition that's original. My imagination is out the window

Andy turned to OpenGL? Now that's good news!
And I like the competition. Maybe that forces me to actually finish my map...

It's a competition entry, which is a full map with a glass feature within it.

I'm putting both of my entries into minimod form. They both use a custom glass texture that I made. It's the same as the normal glass in HL but I made it red.

Yes I am running all entries in OpenGL.
No I didn't e-mail Atom for an extension.
Multiple entries are OK, but I would prefer to see your best work, rather than judge three maps that are similar.
As far as how many Maps you upload... I am only interested in the Glass Feature of your map... I am not interested in playing a series of maps just to see one bit.

From the compo rules:
You can add your own textures, sound or skies, but they have to be included in a Custom Game Format (MiniMod).So, yes.
