I'm alive!

Um, the rough sketch is already done. And I just usually hang out in hexus or jim-dandy with this map and work on it, I've just been dead for the past 2 months :<

I think huge is possible. Moving? I don't know.

I bet if you play around with steam particles you might get something akin to it

The monastary map has room for improvement, detail wise.
The part with the angels and the alternate map, that really got me. An absolutely -excellent- idea.

That, and seeing your incomplete map in co-op, you have my vote as well.

fsdfg. I forgot to take out the telport when I posted it. Yes at the moment I was thinking of a way to make it maybe CTF friendly. I've been playing with the lighting- after going into the second map from that teleport, it would be essentially the same map, however sunnier and probably some changes in geometry and weapons. (of course there would be spawns there.) however it seemed really confusing so I'm not sure how to implement that in this specific map- but implementing it in something else might be really fun. (alternative being maybe a mirror that you can walk through or something.)

Maps / Collabrative map idea!

Let me start with some backstory. The project is simple enough anyway ._.

I was rifling through my magic cards collection, and I came across this Pretty thing. So I was like "Oh hey this is absolutely wonderful, why don't I post it up here and see if I can get some clan members to map with and ultimately make something very, very, pretty. (Also oh fantastic a 60 vs 60 map, because I expect it to be large) I'll keep on looking and see if I can get a larger version of the image, too.

Feedback?  :D

Sounds good. :D

Any times or dates in mind? I won't be available on Monday or Tuesday this week, but besides that I'm a-ok for most times.

Here you go, my only complete map. And a screenshot of an incomplete one. (but you've seen the incomplete one anyway, so.)

Yourself

Name : Zach
Age : 17(Yeah, I'm young.)
Country : United States of America.

In Game

How long have you been playing ? How did you discover the game ?
Well, I've been playing for maybe 2 years, I believe. I discovered the game when a fiend passed it to me, and said I might enjoy it. (and by pass I mean send me the link to the homepage)

What are your favorite game modes (exept coopedit)? Why?
It's a toss-up between FFA and Insta. I love FFA just because you can keep on surviving by collecting health, and honestly there isn't much to it just get weapons and kill shtuff. And well insta because it's fast and fun. Also I play with trackpad so I can disprove people who complain about having a trackpad.

When are you usually online?
Difficult. I'm off an on, and usually I'm on the computer about for 3/4s of the day. With a project, I plan out when I should be on, and I have no problems waking up at 3AM to work on stuff. Yeah, I'm dedicated.

Why Mapping Hell?
Vampirefrog asked me to, and I was like "yeah okay sure"
What will you bring to the team ?
Well, not sure honestly. I've been lone wolfing for quite a while. I guess I have persistence? Patience? A gazzillion hours to spend? And I guess I have a somewhat unique art style but don't quote me on this; but then again who knows I could be a clone. I'm just happy to work on big stuff and get shift done.

Editing

What do you prefer to do in coopedit? Why?
I like making geometries, honestly. Texturing is a pain but it's fun also lighting is really entertaining, I can spend hours tweaking lighting in rooms to make them look nice.

How many mapping projects did you start?
Two. The first I finished, and the second I'm about 500 hours into it.

How many maps have you finished? How many have you uploaded on quadropolis (links) ?
I've finished one map. I'm still tweaking it, because I don't think it's good enough to be on Quad (also because I just got my account activated today finally :v)

What is your favourite kind of map ?
Eyecandy. Huge. Inspired by works of art like Myst, my tastes drift toward the surreal.


Other

I like your application process. :3
