Someone posted that they would like the first draft done by Nov. 1st. And then by the 31st of November, everyone could have thier section fitted in the map.

im very glad you guys decided to kinda shine the deadline on....i come to find out that after much stripping down of the section ive done, it still is way too big to allow others to get in as much space as i have....so.....back to the drawing board....

good atleast im not the only one who dreads the nov 1st deadline...lol and from the looks of it, im not the only one not gonna make that deadline either. ohwell

seeing as how TB isnt touching hammer til december, i say we cancel all deadlines and just give everyone free rain, no set timeline for now. but for those who are willing to touch hammer, dont slack off okey

P.S. orph, isnt your last post in compliance with my request? and yet at the sametime its not...lol

btw, i just might have internet on my work comp as of tomorrow...however ive heard this story before so no promises

My (very preliminary) unadorned section. I need to remove that "searchlight", fix the rock work, get a new water texture, retexture the walls, fix the bridges, and stick more crazy crap around (including something in the water and some entrances/exits, and a few crates...?), but I've got lots of r_speeds to work with now, so it's all good.

EDIT: Also I'm way the hell over the size limit. I think the total enclosed volume is about right, but the thick walls stick out over my portion... What should I do?

water only does that when you use the wrong render mode, i think additive makes it bright, don't use it.

All water is rendered "bright", it just isn't noticeable unless the area is dark. You *could* get around this by using a func_illusionary/invisible func_water combo.

Make your func_water as usual, but set it up as invisible (either by using the {blue texture as usual, or just by setting the brush to render mode "texture" and amount "0"). Now make a func_illusionary the same size as the func_water, and give it the water texture you want to see. Set its render mode and amount to whatever you think will look good. Now you should get correctly lit looking water that still LOOKS like and ACTS like water. [addsig]

Here it is, the list of mappers and their associated sections.


  • Upper Left: Tracer Bullet
  • Upper Center: Doc Brasso
  • Upper Right: DocRock
  • Middle Left: Schmung
  • Middle Center: Wild Card
  • Middle Right: Sinner_D
  • Lower Left: Hornpipe2
  • Lower Center: Gorbachev
  • Lower Right: MoneyShot

I looked over MoneyShot's section (helped him a little) so I could have an idea of what he did and an idea of how to put things together. I started a littlebit on the centerpiece.

Guys, read what I say when I post something, usualy it tends to be important. I've asked time and again for you to send me what you've done so far and only MS gave me something. I know some of you havent gotten a chance to start, thats ok, but I have seen screens from other sections but havent been sent the .RMF.

send me your stuff

i have a suggestion, but it may be a bit too late.

you should not post the locations of the authors contributions, since it may biased them toward or away from the area in question..

the hot death diner had a competition a while back, i downloaded all the maps, and looked them over without looking at the authors, and the results were surprising, at least 2 of my favorite mappers submitted crap, and i might have looked at the maps differently..

at that time doc was still on my all time list.. yup his was one, but i didn't know that in advance.. another was a very talented mapper and a personal friend of mine..

my point is, anonymity may prove beneficial.

Im not sure I get you Orph, the mappers already knew their sections, or is it the public must not know?

yes/no

it would be interesting to view the map once its together without much in the way of markers to show who made what..

you could PM the locations to the team.. but as i said, its a bit late now.

anyways, it was just a thought.
