Indeed. Level changes are completly fine, so long as they work as specified. If you can't get it to work, make a note in your readme (make sure you have a readme too).

Well, I ain't seen one before. Depends on what you do with it.Agreed.
I had a level change in AIGlass, but it was kinda stuffed for half of the people. It was my first level change ever.
And Seventh had one in his Machine comp one (The Discombobulator?).
And jobabob tried to put one in his Star Wars, and it didn't work. He stated so in the readme, and he ended up winning.

Would be absolutely fine, and might win you favour in a tiebreak ? at least, it gives you a good first impression. I did it in the Make a Machine compo.I already said that :|.
I was referring to his actual map idea when I said I hadn't seen one before.

Ok cool, I'll be taking out the "Loading..." sign out of it so it does'nt appear to be loading
Anybody also know how to convert .asf files to .mp3?

Nevermind I got one-->
If anyone else needs a good one... here:
http://www.visual-mp3.com/review/15824.html
and of course you'll need a mp3 to wav converter, for half-life.

I was going to start another thread entitled: 'Map(s) you think members should enter for compo 13', but I feared reprisal. So I'll keep it in here like a good boy:
Trapt: Knife Chess v2, and the map he's currently working on.
PTS: Hacking, and the one with the boat shooting missles and guns at the you in the helo.
SlayerA: Minimicus or LSDF
Imus:The night things 2
RacerX: I think all his maps are different, so any.
There are many people I'm forgetting too. When I have more time I'll go through the maps and 'nominate' more, unless you guys think this is gay.

My "unique map" is being done exclusively for the compo, although "Floatingline" would be a good example of a unique map imo

What if i would be able to show a dogfight? Would that count as original?

Post #98557
Probably not since you just posted your idea...
But I think I'll wait for the next compo or something...in other words, I'm not joining this one even though I had a great idea. Good luck, fellow mappers.

You guys mentioned earlier, that it could be a remade version of the intro of half-life but thats not really original..
Thats why I chose to remake the ending. And so far I must say, my ending will change the way you think of the first game..

Hmmm... Ya mines original. I've never seen or heard my idea brought up or anything so. Ya. I just don't want to spend this much effort in it then find out its not that original.. but it still will be amazing.

So far my mod file size is 26 Mbs, and one of my maps is 7+Mbs alone, another is 2+Mbs, and I still got two maps too do.
I say the file size of my entry will be roughly 35Mb's.
Is this ok?
I have custom sounds, models and stuff.
Along with a splash and avi... But the avi is only 3.34Mbs. eer..
Anyways, like I said is this ok?

4. For entries over 1Mb, just add a link to where you have hosted it on the web, in a .txt file and upload the txt file in a zip.
2. You can add your own textures, sound or skies, but they have to be included in a Custom Game Format (MiniMod).However, the judges might be using Steam, so if that is true, the avi is useless and the splash will only work if made a different way from WON.

Erm, that's a bit over the top. Is it really necessary, or are you -nowadtexturesing, etc.

Ya I am. I got one custom wad file, which I merged the hl.wad, and custom ones, totalling 60Mbs. So I embedded the textures.
Posted 19 years ago2005-03-24 13:50:30 UTC
Post #98843
why? just include that small wad in the mod folder instead of imbeding it.
Posted 19 years ago2005-03-24 14:10:32 UTC
Post #98846
Um, take note: It's not a small wad file..lol it's 60mb... lol.

My minimod is 3,9 MB so far, and it has custom textures, sky, models...

I did seventh. but the half-life wad file is also in with my custom wad file...eeer!
Posted 19 years ago2005-03-24 15:38:28 UTC
Post #98854
Everyone has hl.wad, so it's pointless to include even one hl texture whatsoever

Post #98858
Well thats the thing, I merged the wrong wads, and it screwed me up, and now I'll have to edit each one... How about this guys.. I will make a custom wad again but thats still only putting my file size down by about 10mb's. It will still be roughly 22mb's. This is'nt that bad.
You said as long as it's not out of proportion, (like 50mb)
Well?

As long as you're not wasteful, Unbreakable (like that), then that's okay with me, and, I presume, with Ant.

Heres a pic I quickly made: Nice desktop eh?.. anyway, the point of the pic: In red writing the size of each file is shown.. and theres no way I could cut it down smaller.

Its not that hard to do, the he-111 stayed in formation enroute to the target, so they wont break. saves me work, then 1 only need to make a animation for a p-51D enroute to the bombers. And wiht spirit i can set-up the sprites to create fire/smoke etc.

Ant, will you use the Steam-version model transparency libraries?
pepper: I look forward to it :).
