First Map day: 4th June

[Aly]

A while ago, midget gave me an idea to do this.

The Mappers first map event!

Basically, we play the "first map" of a lot of well known mappers and others on the server.

It will not be a serious test. You exploit clipping/sightline problems that are sure to appear, but do so within reason. We still want this to be fun. This is not a strict gameday, but it's supposed to be fun.

Guidelines:


Your map must be playable. It must have a clear gametype, with working entities and spawns.
Is no longer a WIP and most likely wont be in the future - otherwise new people can just use this as testing
You're map cannot be fullbright. We'd like to come out with our eyes still intact.
Each map will get 15 minutes. More if necisary.
Your map must be absolutely terrible. We didn't come here to play normal maps.


The event will be at 8pm Central US time, 4th June, on the US tf2maps.net server
Times for the rest of the world (http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?day=5&month=6&year=2010&hour=9&min=0&sec=0&p1=196)

Note: These are mappers first maps. If you do not have a decent computer you may struggle, as none of them can be optimized that well.

EDIT: Nevermind, I was too quick reading the thread. :P The time's bad for me so I won't submit my map.

[cyked]

EDIT:: I'm dropping out. trying to add lights to this map is too big a hassle to play it.

You must have a least a few maps released - otherwise new people can just use this as testing

Why's the (wo)man always got to keep a brotha down?:thumbdown:

[Aly]

I should change that to "Is no longer a WIP and most likely wont be in the future"

[Owlruler]

Do you really want to see mine?
Honestly?

[The Political Gamer]

Yes

a076 is not the first version of your first map, which is what we want here. Go dig up a01 :P (or whatever is the oldest you have that is playable... everyone should keep all the versions of their own maps though)

[DJive]

Id add cp_lunar however it breaks every rule of.. the rules, but it was a first !

[Icarus]

Your map must be absolutely terrible. We didn't come here to play normal maps.This is going to be really hard.

This is the earliest version that I could find that isn't full bright.
I don't want to recompile b1, because it takes 2-3 hours just to get through vvis >_<

Forum name? It's right over there to the left <.<
I'll... put up the download later, and upload it to the server myself. I have this feeling if I post it now ten people will go zogmboojmap and go play it immediately on the server.

It's my pseudo-first map for tf2. The only one previous to it being an Avanti remake that never got past a mess of brushes. This one got 3/4 built and all it needed to make playable was to put in the spawns I had planned, since I dropped the map before I did so.

Icarus, we've played b3 so much though with the mapper days. D:

You guys played cp_observatory4 (RC4)

B3 B4 B5 B6 RC1 RC2 RC3 RC4

I assure you B3 is 10x shittier

ctf_revamp_b1

a wonderful map featuring refined detailing, a concrete theme, dynamic gameplay on par with steel. Revamp has it all, and then it has 2 trains and 2 rocket engines.

dl:http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3609133/ctf_revamp_b1.bsp

edit: so yeah, I seem to have a grasp on detailing and how to use hammer, but apart from a little arena map and a godawful ctf contest map, this is my only full blown map, and my only beta. It'll be interesting to see how it plays.

or whatever.

oh submission's closed I see how it is.

[Tech]

Um, maybe next time the same event only for EU people? Its kinda annoying when all the fun ones are at 4 AM

[Aly]

the next one will be EU.

Cyked has dropped out, so penguin, if you still want in I'll add you.

[KarmaPolice]

Aw, I wanted to submit cp_badwater_rainy_alpine. :(

[Penguin]

the next one will be EU.

Cyked has dropped out, so penguin, if you still want in I'll add you.

lol go for it.

I doubt i'll be around to play though.

[Lancey]

Worst map of the event. Voting begins here.

[KarmaPolice]

ctf_revamp was so great it killed the server

[Prestige]

I enjoyed TPG's map. Pl_train something.

even so, worst event ever.

[Aly]

It was so bad, I think I'll run it again for EU people!

[Engineer]

Yaaay! Terribad event, here I come!

[TerabyteST]

Must replay for EU too :(

[SlayerBlitz]

I think we need to play these maps again

[UKCS-Alias]

Is it first map ever or first tf2 map? I used to map for css before (most of those maps still failed hard).

I think Aly will open a new thread for the EU event.

[Penguin]

worst in show had to be pl_railway.

[Aly]

Which is why it was the most fun

[The Political Gamer]

lol I made a map that was so shitty it was actually fun.

lol I made a map that was so shitty it was actually fun.

I scored 40 kills as a sniper on railway. That's as much as four tens. And that's terrible.

[Nineaxis]

I think my K:D on railway was 4-129 because I kept stickyjumping and either not landing on the train or hitting a ramp and surfing off.

But the couple of times I successfully landed, made up for it.
