I am making a small puzzle map but I am unsure if I will make it before 20th...
[QUOTE=TheXeon;17355043]has the contest ended?[/QUOTE]
Is it the 20th yet? :downs:
I'm out I've been busy IRL and won't have time to finish it.

still have to add details and add a few cliffs but i got the idea around 20 minutes ago
Since I don't have anything else to do:
You guys can download my map(NOT FINAL!)
Test it out and tell me what I need to change before I had final cosmetics

No idea who you are, but I imagine you can join assuming you are done by the 20th of September.

I downloaded it, If someone hosts a server I'll join it.

Also can someone quote this when the new page starts[/QUOTE]
Requested :buddy:
I think taking all these nice little 512x512 maps and collaborating by piecing them together in to one big map would be pretty kick ass. It would make a great HL2DM map.
I'll try and make something. Hazrd, your map looks pretty damn good.

Not all of us used the same engine.
[QUOTE=Stickmna;17371866]Not all of us used the same engine.[/QUOTE]
True but that doesn't mean they can't be ported. It would be a lot of work in the end though, but it would certainly pay off.

Well, if you want to go through the work of coordinating everyone in the competition, go for it.
It would probably work better if you just combined maps from the same engine, seeing as trying to get a TF2 map to work with a HL2DM map, to work with a Ep 2 map will be very problematic. Each map has a different goal, the one I'm working on for instance is for FFA gameplay, whereas some other guy's TF2 map was made for teamplay.
Then you have to figure out what to do with the abstract and SP maps and whatnot.
For the HL2:DM maps, I'd like to set up a server, where you can vote on the next map, so it would be easy to tell what people liked best by how popular it was.
That would get around the people just voting based on a screenshot, without taking gameplay into consideration, but it would leave out the maps for other games.

I'd play.
I like that idea but is HL2:DM compatible with ep2 content?
I remember there was this one surf map for CS:S that was basically a bunch of different maps and the main center part was a voting chamber.
I forget what the name was.
And I know this is probably a dumb idea, but what about combining them all into a GMod map, since you could easily switch 'gamemodes' based on the area.

Obsidian Conflict had something like that:

Yeah. Since Gmod is compatible with ep2, we could host the maps on a Gmod server. That way we won't have compatability issues.
Just play GMDM?
I'm out of the competition. School's started and i'm just not mapping alot anymore. and i didnt know u actually had to put it up for download, guess i should have read the rules a little more closely :P
I put up a server for the HL2:DM maps.

I'm also using a Downloadurl so don't worry about downloading the maps first.
I'm still not getting how combining all the maps would work in any form. I mean, what would happen to the maps in the middle? You would have to remove the walls in order to gain assess to them, or remove so much stuff it would be the same. Unless your talking about a room that has teliports to each individual map.

Thanks guys, been fun dominating you
Now I have to:
Remove some physical props
Add some better lighting in certain areas
Remove the crossbow and RPG(Should I?)
Start making the final cosmetics
[QUOTE=Hazrd24;17380644]Thanks guys, been fun dominating you[/QUOTE]
No problem, however now someone is having fun DoS'ing the server.
I'll take it down for now, if you guys need a server for this send me a PM, I don't really regular the mapping section.
Alright I'll PM you when I get beta 2 out

When I played with some friends, the only issue was people blocking the staircase up to the rocket launcher/crossbow with tables. I think just adding some of those radiators would work, so people could grav-jump up to keep blockades from working as well. (Or you could just make the tables static, but that's no fun.)
But the Crossbow and RPG definitely add strategy to the map, as everyone seemed to be trying to find creative ways to stay in control of the top floor. I'd vote for keeping them, or at least the crossbow, and adding SLAMs somewhere, unless I missed them.
I'll get my own HL2:DM map finished up, so it can be on the server.
Is it a HL2:DM server?
Do the maps have to be in before tomorrow or by tomorrow night?
