Any wad authors outside the Americas/Europe?

I'm yet to even meet an African or Middle Eastern player, letalone wad author.  Pondering this while playing the Japanese community project.

There's a guy from Egypt that made a level for alien vendetta, from what I recall.

Well, so, you're answering your own thread title question. Also anyone from Australia or New Zealand is not from the Americas or Europe.

Brazil is in South America, so it doesn't fit in op's request. 

I guess you're right. I apologise

Hey, Israel representative here.

I haven't made a lot of maps and I'm not that great of a mapper either, but my latest work can be found in Joy of Mapping 5. I usually publish Doom content under the name "Moti".

Coming at ya from NZ!

I've always been fascinated about how arabic words are romanized by using numbers in them as well.  Such as "ElissaWi7at Il7ob Remix By D.JAkram" - why is that?

Here is an article which explains it in thorough details:

P.s My name ;)

Been plenty of content coming out of Russia, which unless you subscribe to the X-Com map, isn't part of Europe. Not that I have an overview of it, but there have been several Russian speed map events, etc. Pcorf's maybe the most prolific mapper from there?

@R1ck is Malaysian afaik.

@joe-ilya is Israeli.

@DeathevokatioN is either South African or Brazilian, not sure.

Did you know, russian map\mod authors have their own site + forum. Check out the "Doom Power" site.

and ye, I'm Russian, from Mother Russia.

Most of the Russian landmass is in Asia, however most of the Russian population is in Europe. Culturally, Russia is much closer to Europe than to Asia.

If you're in Russia north of the Caucasus and west of the Urals, you're in Europe.

Likewise if you're in Turkey but north of the Sea of Marmara, you're in Europe.

like @bzzrak mentioned, I am indeed Malaysian.

From my perspective, the country's so big it really escapes any easy categorisation. It has similarities, but is distinctly different from Europe in many ways. Even Scandinavia's not purely European, though often referred to as part of "Northern Europe". My home country Norway's not part of the EU, though we have some trade deals that allows certain accesses to the open market. To me, the SPan-France-Germany-Italy constallations always been the heart of Europe. Englishmen have certainly always set themselves apart from "Europe", made very evident with Brexit lately. All about how broadly you wanna generalise I guess. =p

Ah, the EU isn't Europe, though. It's just a political union between a number of European countries.

The creator of Deus Vult II is Vietnamese, if I'm not mistaken.

^ Huy Pham? Wasn't he Russian? The name always gave me that impression, haha.

My russian hometown is located on the border between Europe and Asia. I was living in the Europe part, but everyday I was moving into Asia part.

BTW, I'm living now in the Asian area where people also speaks on their native asian language mixed with russian. But technically I'm living in the Europe part.

So, I can be counted as "guy which living outside of Europe"? :]
