A small idea concerning Mapping.

[Retrocity]

Okay,
ive had this idea, right, all the mappers on The Ban List, have skills.
we can all map, but some of us can do certain things better, say..
..Bob could Texture superbly, but Tony could make some form of super prefab
or something along those lines, anyway..
..What im getting at, is that we TBL Mappers could join together, and make some form of super map, for source, weather it be a fun map, action, adventure map whatever. it is possible, but what are your oppinions?

[Myrex]

sorta like a comunity map??
yeah, im in... i could learn a few things and maby u could learn some stuff from me :D hopefully :D

?
elaborating on this abit... so ur saying that, we shuld make are own 'brand' of maps :shocked: . well, its a good idea to me :D

[Naigel]

Sounds great... I'd like to join. I'm good at brushwork and texturing (well, I disagree, but other people like it). I'm pretty bad at lighting and entities. First come up with a list of mappers and let's discuss map idea's afterwards! Create layouts and such... :D

[TeleProd]

I dont know anything about mapping, but i'd like to help.

[Retrocity]

cool, people, this started well, i thought it would fail then slaughter me in later life
but what we need is an idea for our own type of maps

[Naigel]

Let's create a temporary irc channel for this.

Join #tblmapping

[Myrex]

just downloading irc now. i have some ideas in the works... i have basic entity's and brush work :D just mastered multi_managers

[ParKour]

Can i beta test :D thats wer my mapping skills come in!
Oh, i have made a box once :D well more of a single room

[Retrocity]

Sure, Welcome to the team, Soon we should have a small Beta butchered up, but it may be a while, cause currently im ill, and my butchering skills are dead at the moment =P

[SK]

Yeah good idea indeed. I cant offer anything other than it can be beta tested on Fight Club if needed?

[Retrocity]

Thanks SK, if we need it, we'll let you know.

Join the mirc channel instead.

[Myrex]

hardly anyone in there mate

[Retrocity]

yeah, come in the evening if you want to talk mapping
i have a small single player HL version of what ive made so far, using my limited crappy skillz

[frost]

i can do some mapping. i'm not incredibly experienced, but i can do some brushwork.

i'm a bit fuzzy with entities, but i think i can manage if somebody would care to teach me how to use some of the more advanced stuff.

well, if we can get a huge conglomeration of mappers... why not make a gigantic map?? perhaps we could do a lord of the rings map or something with a gigantic journey and string it through 10-15 "maps" (like tetris1 - tetris 6).

something we would need though... is custom modelers... those are hard to come by.

[Naigel]

B U M P ?!

[acehigh]

[Naigel]

We could revive this entire project, but it's best to wait till 3.5 is out.

So... yeah...

Naigel post the whole changes news on our SC forums. Nice nice News but u found em ;)


Player revival added. Use medkit secondary with 50 ammo to revive a player.

Thats vy vy vy vy vy vy nice. Should be nice to help others if u get points for it. If u wont get a point ppl wont revive others. Hope they gonna implent scores for heals to get more teamplay in the game.

EDIT:
Continued reading the changes

- Alien Grunt Hornets have 50% reduced sight range, and only tracking-hornets will be fired if the Monster can not see his enemy. If enemy is visible, the alien grunt will fire hornets in a similar manner to the player hornetgun's secondary fire.

- Tweaked/Reduced Shock Trooper damage resistance.

Nice nice nice :)

[Naigel]

Heh, I figured it was already posted. In that case I'll just repost this in the SC forum.
