I had a quicky look at the smallst official nexuiz map (i think), basement. a box surrounding this is 1744x1520y632z (hmm i knew it was smal, but that small..?) so a 2048 should be well enougth space for a small to medium map.

okay then 2048 units.
So post here if you want to take part.

Then we can set up a deadline when the maps must be finished.
And the maps should be dm. This is much easier for 2048 units...

Well, if the prize should be inclusion in the next release, all texures/models/etc. used & the final map would have to be GPLed (or compatible)...

Heh, never made a 1024-mapping contest for q3.

So making this 2048-contest is a great idea and won't take too much time (I worked on the runningman maps on and off for about 3 month (incl. pauses))

So count me in :P

Btw.: I think the jury should judge two categories: gameplay and visuals. So there can be two winners or one with both titles. If you'd like me to be in the jury my map won't be judged of course ;)

sounds good. I could organize it, but we'd need a rating system. We could have judges or we could have a public voting system. I'll throw together a script when I find the time, but I'd need to know all the stuff I mentioned before.

well we make a 2048³ map where the map isn't over 2048 units and 2048 units must be used. The type is dm the map must be a pk3 archive with cuzstom content included and a cfg and txt. also there must be a readme that the map is under the gpl licence.

and the jury must get the .map-file to look at it to see how well it's mapped (hint brushes etc.)

THE MAP MUST BE UNDER GPL!!!
