Mapping Contest

Postby localhost » Fri Jun 01, 2007 9:18 pm

Hi!

I have new idea to get more cool Maps for less players and to include them in the next release of Nexuiz.

We can start a 1024³ (or maybe 2048³) Mapping-Contest! This means:
The map must be 1024 units height. 1024 units flat and 1024 units deep. Style is up yours!

We must have then a jury which testes the maps.

So we need two lists: Jury and participants

Participiants:
localhost

Jury:


Hope some take part to this!
It wasn't me!

a 1024 cube in nexuiz is *very* small for a map.
HOF:
<Diablo> the nex is a "game modification"
<Diablo> quake1 never had a weapon like that.
<Vordreller> there was no need for anything over 4GB untill Vista came along
<Samua>]Idea: Fix it? :D
<Samua>Lies, that only applies to other people.

My nexuiz maps are tiny compared to my other map works :D

Keep in mind that a nexuiz playermodel is arround 70 qu high and can jump arround 512 units up with a lserjump.

Not TOO big...like that reservoir map, or blueAmuse.

But also not Eggs and Bacon sized either.

The size of runningman is pretty good.
I would say MikeCTF is a pretty good size too.

Just for the record, divVerent calculated the maximum height of a perfect laserjump.. the result is a bit of an eyeopener..
[00:11] <div0> maximum item height a PERFECT laser jumper could reach would be 825qu...

This would be a totaly perfect laser jump tho, not really humanly possible. But it still gives you an idea of just mow mutch movement space you need. and teh laser is not the strongest pusing gun there is eigther.

Maps that size takes tons of time. I doubt to many ppl are willing to take on a challange that big.

Ok, so we're thinking more like 3v3 size, like for the ladder?

edit : I just realized that the map contest was for a DM map. oops.

Maybe the dimensions are too small but the IDEA is GREAT! Can you pack great gameplay into a 2048³ bounding box?
I'll make 1 anyway.
