<div class="IPBDescription">map</div> <b>Hi like all know me i dont need to intruduce and tell all who i am.

<span style='color:orange'>In all words : powerhouse will be finnished by my team</span>.
<span style='color:orange'>Ken20banks</span> dont have time to do it by he self. I think this is good idea to do, to get the map done and finnish it. Yes last time : because i need to make it powerhouse style i have !! decompiled some parts of the map using some screenshots and not compile tools.
So this is my first screenshot of my own remaked powerhouse what i maked with my own hands like the original one.
<span style='color:red'>So mr.Ken Banks dont have time anywat to finnish it so my team are starting this project to get the map done.</span>

Nice names you have there Nexus , cool
If you're thinking of starting a "remake project" (which you seem to be, it's hard to tell what exactly you're trying to say), I don't see the point. Ken said himself that the map had hardly anything to it and it wasn't worth giving to anyone else to work on. All the previous remake projects have been working on remaking <i>completed official maps</i> and all the teams have had the good grace to ask the maps' creators for permission to carry out the task. I think it's jumping the gun just a <i>bit</i> to rush in and claim to spearhead the new ns_powerhouse (or whatever you're going to name it although your other name choices are totally mad) map based on Ken's work, especially when you don't really seem to grasp the theme that made Ken's old shots of the map so damned good. This all seems to me an excuse to map something that doesn't require any of your own creative input.
If you're not doing a "remake".. well, I guess you haven't learned much from your previous lessons.
If so can we see some proof?

A lot sure has changed for me since my last update, half a month ago. My lust for UT2003's incredible graphics faded away faster then I could have ever imagined. That same night, I went back to ns_powerhouse and totally revamped the level. Ok, fine. Scrapped, restarted, whatever you want to call it. Those are such icky words though! <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo--> I was much happier with the results, and once again became motivated to continue to work with the Half-Life engine. I sure am glad I did, too.
Below, along with two ns_powerhouse shots, you can find a picture of some of what has been keeping me rather busy the past couple weeks: Nightwatch. We had our big PR blitz last week, and the feedback was very encouraging. Working on a singleplayer game sure is quite the departure from multiplayer. I'm having a blast with it. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
he dont gonna finnish it anyway. And if someone ban me i dont really cares because i'm trying to help this guy finnish hes map and i dont decompiling it. yes So why not to finnish the map because he may not have time to work on it and he have maybye forget about the map. So well?
But it said he just restarted. So why should you continue on someone's map without their permission? That's like me going into the ns_parabola thread and going "Yeah, I'll take over from here - I can finish it. I'll just remake everything based on the screenshots!".

Well you should have asked him first and second, i don't think there was even ever a functional version of the map. Basically i think you are just making your own map taking other people's work. REALLY, think about this before you take it any further.
Fixed.

Subject: Hi Ken, ns powerhouse
Sent: den 19 maj 2004 12:37:12
My name is Nz-Nexus and i love Level-Design.
My real name is Dennis G, and im from Sweden my age is only 14 ½ but you need to se my work!
I have mapped in 1 year now and created many unfinnished maps. This time it will be done.
I have created many maps and have one in development.
If you want to prewiev my work you can go here :
<a href='http://nsworld.ns-central.co.uk/Map.php?UniqueID=419' target='_blank'>http://nsworld.ns-central.co.uk/Map.php?UniqueID=419</a>
Im actually from www.natural-selection.org/forums (mapping forum)
and i have seen your work, well it is great. I dont know if you are very bussy or this email comes to wrong person.
But i hopes you can send me back the question i need to ask.
Ns nothing is fantastic work man.
Is ns powerhouse never done? That map looks good and nice. Well what i know is your maps very good detailed and have extremly "that rock's man!" lighting.. So the i asks you this time, does you need help to finnish the map? i want the map out. Please finish ns powerhouse and dont delay it. Or you can send the map to <b>me and i can finnish it if you wants.</b> Are you working now for Half-Life : Nightwatch project? or Quake IV?
waiting with extreme anticipation..
Thanks mr.Ken if you got this mail.
Im one of your fans.
And the point is that Level-Design dont makes me proud, it makes the people who can it.
that means that he dont gonna finnish it, i cant contact this person anyway. So i takes the challenge to finnish it.
No wait, he said, cliterus, never mind...
(CLITERUS = Comittee for the Liberation and Integration of Terrifying Entities and their Rehabillitation from Under-appreciation back into Society?, OK that didn't make as much sense, but hey, this topic doesn't make sense either so...)

Yeah. Do you ever read things people tell you?
Additionally, standard practice is <i>not</i> to just send an email and start anyway regardless of replies or even regardless of whether or not you actually get one.
The fact that you can't get a hold of him (although you've only tried one email and I believe that it's the wrong one) and that he can't finish it right now, is <i>no</i> excuse to go barging in yourself.
No, it means you gave up on the first attempt at contacting him and are too lazy to actually get a hold of him. Also, a lack of response does not equal permission, ergo you still have no right to take over this project from him.
Also, if this were my map you were stealing and finishing, I'd finish you. Mortal Kombat style.
but..If he never finnish the map? so what you says then?
I can delay the project emideatly but i want to on some way finnisht hes map. Because i want, and all want it. Execute that this is only a help and not a stealing work.
You *want* to finish his map? Sorry, but it just doesn't work that way.
It's his map, and you have <b>NO RIGHTS</b> over it, forget it. It's not yours, and it will never be, it's not going to be finished, deal with it.
But don't steal other people's work.
Then he never finishes the map. Greater tragedies could happen. Powerhouse rocks, but I'm sure his QIV stuff is even better, so we won't lose entirely.
It's of no concequence whether or not you want to finish the map if it isn't yours to finish.
but..If he never finnish the map? so what you says then?

finnish (fin'ish) v.t. 1. To turn someone into a Finn, also known as citizens of Finland. - fin'ish'er. 1. Someone who makes a living by turning people into Finns.
