What's with the weird blur effects?

[QUOTE=GoldPlatinum;38222092] Imgur killed the quality[/QUOTE] Should I enter you into the contest then? [editline]28th October 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=TurtleeyFP;38218084]I feel somewhat compelled to try and whip up something quick, but I don't think I have any good ideas that I'm not already using for other projects.[/QUOTE] I couldn't imagine why it wouldn't be worth trying at least.

[QUOTE=quacles;38223373]Should I enter you into the contest then?[/QUOTE] Please

[QUOTE=GoldPlatinum;38224349]Please[/QUOTE] Done.

Sorry guys, I have to withdraw from the competition for personal reasons. I wish the best of luck to the other contestants.

[QUOTE=9Clockwork;38295305]Sorry guys, I have to withdraw from the competition for personal reasons. I wish the best of luck to the other contestants.[/QUOTE] I would try to convince you otherwise, but personal reasons sounds pretty deep. Good luck facing your demons!

Hey quacles, drop me out of the contest. I won't be able to finish the map in time due to other plans and failing computer hardware. [B]However[/B], I very well intend to finish the map and release it anyway, despite not being able to compete in the contest.

Same here. :(

Well I'm getting a lot of shit done today hopefully I can get some pictures/video up soon of the progress so far.

I'm still going to carry on, but the situation's looking pretty grim right now. I'm actually going to restart cause I have a an idea that I think will work much better, I'd rather submit something I'm proud of that's unfinished to be honest.

I didn't touch Hammer in some time and don't know most things. I hope I'll get my map done even if there's 1 month left. I never felt so motivated before.

I'll see what I can do in a month. Count me in! Although, the quality of the other maps here are a little [del]intimidating[/del] motivating.

I hope that you don't just need an extra week or something to release it, because we might be able to work something out. Same for everyone, I would much rather delay the competition and get more submissions. Than stick to the deadline and loose a bunch of submissions.

This is looking bad. I'm gonna enter just so that this doesn't die out. :s I'll try and see what I can do. Best luck to everyone!

[/QUOTE] I think I might be able to scrape up enough money to get the last of the parts to my new pc ordered so I can finish the map in time. But you never know. :v:

Here's a quick play through of what I got done so far. The annotations will explain what will be added and explain what is going on. This video will also completely spoil the map for anyone who plans on playing it when its done. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTOc6dNm9dI[/media]

Love to see progress updates! Keep up the good work!

we're still working on this, we should have something to show tomorrow

The concept of my map is finished in my head, I need to write it on paper and then in Hammer. I hope its ok if I do my map for Black Mesa?

No, because : [QUOTE=BMSdev]The mod's been released with a Creative Commons license that allows you to use our content on the condition that you credit its creators (so that'd be us, the Black Mesa development team) and [B]don't try to sell it or profit from it[/B].[/QUOTE]

Isn't it same for Half-Life 2?

[QUOTE=the tee;38327732]Isn't it same for Half-Life 2?[/QUOTE] I think valve has given consent for this sort of stuff before, or at least never have had a problem with it. You should try contacting the BM:S dev team and see if they are okay with it or not.

[QUOTE=relinquish;38327089]No, because :[/QUOTE] I think that goes only for actually selling the content or the mod or by claiming you made it. Technically you don't profit from the content. You profit from the map you made. And i think the devs would be fine with it. You can always ask them directly.
