It'll never be how I envisioned it though :(
I was going to have custom dev cubemaps, little dev boats in the water, a dev blimp/zeppelin and dev clouds.

Why are all the entries, except Jukka, Juniez and J!m (3 Js (conspiracy)), all so dark and dull looking?

When I heard dev, I instantly thought bright and colourful.

Mine's a horror map.

I had big plans for this competition and you can probably see the way I was headed with it, but leaving it till the last 6 days didn't exactly help the execution. Oh well, maybe next time.

Those aren't default dev textures...

Cute idea though.

When was the last time i made a cheerful map?

Never

Never

Actually, this map wasn't too depressing...at least it didn't show a broken humanity.

[Not_Yet]

i guess you can count me out, been busy with other stuff lately

[Antec]

I left this a few weeks ago IIRC.

I could certainly teach you a few things or so about spelling...

I can't spell very well today.

[Edvinas]

Guess I'm out, still have to make around 15 buildings and each takes about a half an hour to finish.

Cute idea though.

Who cares if they aren't default dev? They're still dev.
I honestly thought that more people would use custom dev textures.

read the contest's rules.

[sphinxa279]

This is all I got, wasn't very much motivation what with the break up with the Fiance, not an entry just showing what I done in a few hours.




Edited:

Nothing magnificent, was only about 2 hours work on and off.

I saw when you guys were first discussing the rule and I thought it was a bad idea then and I think it's a bad idea now.
Just limits creativity.

I beg to differ. It Lets use the imagination reflex more actually. You have to think of interesting ways to make boring grayscale textures a orange and grey grids into a unique map. It takes a very talented mind to pull something like that off. Look at what has been made with just dev textures!. To me, It takes a lot more work to create an awesome thing when you don't have many resources.

This is a little off-topic, but when is another mapping contest starting? I was too late to participate in this one.

[wauterboi]

:(

[Mapster]

I have flicked through all the pages here and I have to say all this art is absolutely mind blowing! :)
Well done to you all with your dev designs and architecture!

When someone works out what the next one will be.

[Pyth]

Mobile fortresses?

[oskutin]

Moon?

[GoldPlatinum]

High Tech buildings and interiors.

[J!m]

Pyramids

[kaine123]

Historical Events.

[IronPhoenix]

I think j!m has pyramania:

[mopman999]

I like the dungeon or 512 idea

[TurtleeyFP]

I'm still going with my "blast to the past" base content thing.
And guess what?

Somebody agrees with me!

So...

I've got that.

[Joey1]

Im for that artwork thing, thats freedom for everyone, since you can find artwork for everything

[comet1337]

new contest theme: hell
lava, glowing red rock, dark stone gothic buildings and fire in a series of caves and caverns / what else you can think of.

imagine doom 3's last levels

[Pyth]

Might be hard to see some entries' screenshots.

[kaine123]

I actually think that the whole default Hl2 content idea would be a pretty good challenge for the mappers on Facepunch. It's like a step up from this challenge. It's just a test to see what you can do with limited resources.

Aha!
Now two people agree with me!
...Yay.

I'm going to get an early start against everyone else, peace.

No using any premade content in the contest when it happens however.

Doing that would probably go against contest rules.

You can start whenever you want, but about 95% of contestants never submit final product .. sooner you start, sooner it will become boring

Just start like sphinxa, last day of contest
