Single Player Mapping Competition (Prizes, Fun, and Other Things!) - Developers

[QUOTE=relinquish;37904905]A little update on my map :3 [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/bTd5J.jpg[/IMG] Ugh. I really hate that HEV suit model.[/QUOTE] Looking good, hope to see it finished!

I just want to be sure, I'm using BMS as a host for my map, can I use BMS textures or just valve ones? (and ones I made)

[QUOTE=Kwaq;37905333]I just want to be sure, I'm using BMS as a host for my map, can I use BMS textures or just valve ones? (and ones I made)[/QUOTE] If I understand your post correctly, I don't think you can use anything BMS related. I think someone posted earlier in the thread quoting the BMS team. It said something like "Our content cannot be used to gain yourself a profit." But I may be misunderstanding you.

[QUOTE=Kwaq;37905333]I just want to be sure, I'm using BMS as a host for my map, can I use BMS textures or just valve ones? (and ones I made)[/QUOTE] That's really hard to say, you should contact the devs. about that to be sure. I don't think they won't people profiting off of their stuff. So, you may have to forfeit your prize if you win. So, just to be safe get in contact with the devs. if you don't want to get in contact with them, then I advise against you using their content.

Okay good, I just didn't want to get disqualified for adding the odd bms texture without knowing

Hope I'm not too late, but I would love to join!

Man, I haven't mapped in a long while. Gonna try my luck.

Add me as well.

Always good to see more entries, can't wait to see what you guys come up with.

Can I ask how some people are conveying their stories? That's the part I'm having trouble with.

I just want to rate all of your alls posts "Mapping King", but as a judge that wouldn't be fair. Just from looking at these screenshots, you all have me really excited and I look forward to judging everyone's work.

Since some people started posting content Im currently (finally) working on this contest, and I started with camera. Its based on Grenade Mans version that he posted in previous contest. [video=youtube;v004zFbxC4Q]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v004zFbxC4Q[/video]

not to discourage anyone (jk) but here is our intro (still needs tweaking) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAJIsitTkt4[/media] Here's the maintenance door model that will replace the door in the video: [img]http://i.imgur.com/A4p1t.jpg[/img]

"Maitence" access or something. Also, drunken gunship? Looks great, can't wait to see what else you'll come up with!

I really like the look of all the progress so far. I can see now this is going to be a lot harder to judge then I thought.

[img]http://i.imgur.com/cnzwN.jpg[/img] Here's a sneak preview of the theme of my map! Need to add some custom textures for some things that aren't currently living up to standards though.

I got my theme setup, just need to finish the actual mapping. :v:

Both of those are looking pretty great, so far. Keep it up! [editline]8th October 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=sphinxa279;37959605]I'm in.[/QUOTE] Added. Good luck.

[QUOTE=a wet towel;37926546]Can I ask how some people are conveying their stories? That's the part I'm having trouble with.[/QUOTE] I'm making it as I go and its surprisingly working out well.

Ceiling seems low to me though... Anyway, nice work so far!

A quick update from HoliestCow: [img]http://i.imgur.com/bBISo.jpg[/img] any CC? P.S: the weird spots on that left wall are the fence' texture shadows

Looking good, sadly I can't offer up any CC, as that would not be very fair. You might want to take it to the Map Pimpage/Wip thread, they offer great CC.

ehhhh, I'm still working on deving out my map. I finally got all the brushwork to my layout done, and I'm now working on all the displacements I need to do. Subdivide is panicking :P

so I got the door animations working (I still need to tweak it, remove the loop and slow it down): [img]http://i.imgflip.com/4jgb.gif[/img] And HoliestCow's been working on a few other parts of the map: [img]http://i.imgur.com/Z4BTV.jpg[/img]
