where'd it go!?
It was supposed to end just a day or two before the forums went down a year ago. I can't find it now. Anyone else?

I lost the one i was working on as well- ayumi's pressure hive, all sourced up.
Not that it matters; i suck at mapping anyway. Takes me 30 minutes to make a big empty room, and light it.
Died with the forums.

o.O It takes you that long to make 6 walls and a light? Someone needs practice :O
Last time we did this an onos just put its fat **** inside the hole and lerks just farted a new athmosphere.
It looked so gross that we decided to never ever do this again.

I think the emphasis lies on "big", lot's of scrolling/panning involved then

Ok, maybe that was an exageration. What i meant; was that im a complete newb at hammer.
I have no idea how to do anything in it, really. Sure, i can make a room, put some water and props in it, but none of the fancy stuff that i see other mappers doing.
*Sigh*
None of us started out with this power to create hawt looking shizzle. Just keep trying things in Hammer and sometimes you go like "OI this way is much faster and better then what I used to do (exp +10)".
Practice makes "perfect" really goes here. you might want to get into hl2 mapping also while your at it since we are all moving towards it with ns2 incomming >insert waiting period here< (well perhaps the ns2tr...)
ontopicness:
Anyways, sourcified is dead. but now we have the devs actually working on ns2 sourcified...

This one looked good:
This one was a good start:
Festive Lights Mod [BLUE]
[Forum Mod]
Playing NS since 1.0
Maps:
ns_Hulk
co_Overmind
I can make a room or two, connect them up and make them look alright... But I can't do any more than that. The only map I've ever released was a really bad NS funmap that took 30 mintues to throw together.
I have real problems with finishing maps, no idea why. I suspect it might be an effort thing, I'll look at the map and suddenly realise that in order to make it look how i want, i need to spend ages on it. That'll scare me off and I'll go play NS instead.
But that's just me. NS maps in source, you say? I'm all for it! The Citadel showed that scifi environents work really well in source, so all we need now is for them to be built...

What about to restart the competition. Just for fun and practice until NS2TR come out
What about if somebody makes a nice looking one, we can have a community source pics tab on the front page? I]t could be similar to the fan art section (or just go in that section as well I guess.)
so I was the only one that finished mine, huh? you guys sadden me.
Yea that was another thing, no one really completed much. It was only for one area or room as well, it shouldn't take incredibly long to finish
