NoWaves Posted January 27, 2013 Here's a nice challenge for you guys. Try making a whole map, based around a single song. I thought since every other project I've seen in the past month or so,(Save perhaps by Slaughterfest) have had some sort of "artistic" twist to it. So I thought I'd jump on the bandwagon and start my own similar project. Being the musical person that I am, it was bound to be something like this. Now for the technical goodies. ======================== Technical Goodness ======================== Port: Zdoom Maps per mapper: Infinite. Custom Textures: Allowed Deadline: Middle of 2014, or when it's finished. Send maps to: dachauncinator@gmail.com ======================== Music ======================== Music Format: Midi,.mp3, or .ogg Genre of music: Doesn't matter, but preferably rock/metal. To resolve the no mp3 rule of idgames, I'll just convert your mp3's to oggs in audacity, so feel free to still send mp3's. ======================== Credits ======================== Mappers: Dachauncinator Katamori sgtdopey Playtesters: ======================== Maps ======================== (Will be added as they're finished.) 0 Share this post Link to post
Walter confetti Posted January 27, 2013 oh, something similar to the mapping by music challenge on zdoom forums some time ago... looks interesting (like many other million projects i'm in...) 0 Share this post Link to post
Katamori Posted January 27, 2013 The rules of /idgames doesn't allow to upload WADs that contains .mp3 files. We should use .ogg instead. Anyway, add me to mappers, I already know a perfect song to it for a while. 0 Share this post Link to post
Khorus Posted January 27, 2013 Katamori said:The rules of /idgames doesn't allow to upload WADs that contains .mp3 files. While I haven't looked at the wording, I'm fairly sure that's referring to copyrighted material being used without permission, rather than the compression format. 0 Share this post Link to post
Katamori Posted January 27, 2013 Khorus: oh, yes, you are right. I just read the full text: Bloodshedder said in /newstuff and /idgames FAQ: What will be rejected? [...] MP3s/OGGs in WADs, unless it can be verified that the creation is original, and ideally is intended for the specific WAD file. 0 Share this post Link to post
NoWaves Posted January 28, 2013 I think I'll release two different versions of the wad, one with the mp3 versions of the songs, one with the midi versions. 0 Share this post Link to post
Walter confetti Posted January 29, 2013 just a think i've got in mind: why this projects doesn't use even .mod, .xm, .s3m and .it audio files over the other zdoom audio compatible files? 0 Share this post Link to post

Because, at least to my knowledge, those are quite a bit obscure. 0 Share this post Link to post
45th Parrallel Posted February 1, 2013 I've figured out the song and idea to use and I'm going to get started on my map tomorrow. Spoiler Its going to be based on/around Fear Factory : Designing the Enemy if anyone wants to know 0 Share this post Link to post
