Special Battle: Hammer 4 vs Hammer 3.5

Postby BaRRaKID on Wed Jan 24, 2007 7:20 pm

So time for another special battle, this time it will be a team battle to decide (or at least try to) what’s the best hammer version.
The usual map battle rules apply, just 3 screenshots for each map, and not a full playable map. There are however a few changes since this is a team battle.
There will be two teams, Hammer 4 team and Hammer 3.5 team. I'm leading team 3.5, and Slayera is leading team 4, soon the threads for each one will be created, but you can send a private message to each leader now if you want to be part of his team.

Each team will have four members, and each member has to make one map for one of the following games (one map for each game):

- Half-Life Single Player
- Half-Life Deatmatch
- Counter-Strike
- Day of Defeat

The team leaders will also join in and have to choose from one of the above games, and also make a map for it.

So to sum it up for those who didn't understand it, there are two teams; each team has four members plus a team leader. They will have to do 4 maps (one in each game) plus the leaders map in a game of his choice.

The deadlines will be decided once both teams are complete.
Also remember that this is just for fun, and there are no prizes or ranking points involved.
Hope you all like the idea and join in :D

Come people, sign up, I have only gotten one PM so far. I love barra, but I want to kick his ass on this.

I still have HL2:DM, CS:S and DOD:S to fill. If more than one person wants a position then I will need to have a couple of screen shots showing your work.

Well my mistake was that I thought I was going to be overrun with takers, but that is far from the case. I did not want to start just giving out spots willy nilly.

If you want a spot I still have CS:S and DOD:S spot open. So PM me.

Are there any places left? and does it matter if you don't have DoD:S? - could always make two HL2 maps :P

P.S: How the hell do you map for HL:S?
