Eagle Speedmapping Sessions 6 - Better Late Than Never

Will be held on the 9th September, 2017.

BASIC RULES:

- You'll have 2 hours to finish the map, however the borderline is 3 hours if your project is that ambitious

- The maps should be Boom compatible and playable in -complevel 9 in order to increase flexibility. You don't have to use Boom actions if you don't want to.

- You'll get three themes when the session starts to ensure fair play. The bonus, last session will also contain a bonus theme

- You'll need to incorporate at least one theme in your map

So, the first session will be held on 7:00 am UTC, or 8:00 am GMT (New York is UTC-4 so take that as an example) and the second session will be held on 7:00 pm UTC!

I hope you'll enjoy and come back for more next month when it will be held at the first Saturday again!!

I will try not to forget this time... :)

Although I'm going back to work after this weekend and am anticipated to be quite busy for the next few months until Christmas, I will hopefully be able to livestream the completed wad once again. No active participation in the session itself though.

I'll join, should be fun.

I'll try to make something awesome, as I usually do. B-)

Count me in!

will probabl make something for the 2nd

Awesome, thought it wasn't going to happen this month! I should be around for this one.

I wasn't sure until now, but it seems like if nothing weird happens I'll be able to join for the second session again.

Guys, custom textures were allowed if you wanted to use some. I'll make it more clear next time. 

In the meantime, the compilation will probably be ready in a day since I'm away from my PC atm. 

ok... can i fix my map before the compilation? Just a little thing...

passageway (2).zip quick fix

Small update: it's the same link but here you go anyway.

I added a custom sky with permission from @NaZa - thanks!

Prettied up the level a bit

I just noticed a mistake on my map, I was going to make the linedefs around the YK area impassable to stop the archviles from launching the player outside, but apparently I forgot.

I don't think it's worth it to make another download just for that, but if you could change those linedefs to impassable it would be great.

So about that compiled version? I'm keenly waiting to play this...

Ahhhh ffs if it gets uploaded too early I'm asked why is it uploaded so early. If it's uploaded late I get asked why is it late. 

Still waiting.....

I'm certain that NaZa has a good reason to be taking this long, just as I'm certain that nobody wants to put pressure on him to hurry up, he's doing us all a favour by taking care of the compiling after all.

That said, it is unusual how long this is taking. It would be nice to leave a message like "Have a little patience, I'm still working on it", just so we know you didn't forget about it or something :S.

The compilation will be ready in an hour, not more.
