Map Battle 2: Bridge

Postby BaRRaKID on Tue Jun 21, 2005 11:31 pm

So here it is, the second Map Battle, this time we have a bridge for you to work with.

You can get the template>>HERE<<

Rules:

All users have to download the template map, then a map is created using this as a base to start things on.

The template map must be used in the map but can be edited in anyway, but the end product must resemble the template in it somewhere. Feel free to enhance or alter the template as you see fit.

The map must be designed for a screenshot purpose only. This means it does not have to be playable in anyway but the focus will be on looks. (This also makes it quite possible in a two week period)

A maximum of 3 screenshots per map, feel free to show WIP shots to each other, as this is for fun but state when your screenshots are final so they can be judged as such.

Showing off your work so far makes it more fun for everyone, and may help inexperienced members. :)

HL2 or CS:Source can be used to create the map, but the final product will look better without a huge ass gun model waving over the place.


Plus a screenshot of what we made for you:

I hope to get even more submissions this time, and I have my expectations really high in terms of quality, so everyone start working on this ;)

The battle ends at the 6th of july.

Gentleman start your hammers!

Does the entry have to be created off of the template?

I felt the house map had a little too much built, this gives you a chance to be a bit more creative.

Feel free to edit the bridge to your needs, but the basis of your screenshot will be on a bridged area.

Refer to the previous battle for an idea of the workings, good luck.

You can do whatever you wish to the bridge, a long as the resulting map still has a bridge in it. You can marry it or have sexual relations with it for all we care. As long as it's still a bridge by the end.

Does the bridge need to be solid?

Dude, change the skin number then. There are like 4 set, one for each time of the year.

Ok, so I'm sort of a begining mapper, but I'll give this a try anyway! The last one was a little too difficult for me, and I'm sure I can't live up to the quality of some of the mappers here, but I'll still still give it a shot! Who knows, maybe I'll learn some new mapping skills!
