Constriction 1024: The Sequel to Claustrophobia 1024

Alright, a bunch of you have apparantly started your 1024_3 maps, so might as well get this going. 1024_2 is just about done, so keep your eyes out for it. I just called this mapset Constriction to follow the excessively long C word that means small theme. You guys can argue about it more in this thread if you want.

For those who are (by some miracle) unfamiliar with the 1024 concept, mappers have to create a map in which the player's movements are confined to a 1024x1024 area, though the map's dimensions are not limited and monsters are not restricted to that area.

If you've yet to play Congestion 1024: GET IT NOW
If you've yet to play Claustrophobia 1024: Coming 10.24.2008!

Same deal as last time. Your map has to restrict the player to a 1024x1024 box and it has to be Boom-compatible. Make sure to put co-op starts in your maps so diehard co-op players can play co-op in this mapset.

Again, same procedure as last time. When you get done, send me your map with whatever MIDI you want. You can post any screenies of your map here as well as comments anything 1024. Sign up in this thread as well. Don't call specific mapslots because as you saw in the 1024_2 thread that just makes things more confusing. If you don't feel like naming your own map, I'll name it for you.

Here's the list of people who have expressed interest in 1024, got chased away for 1024_2 while it was full, or got kicked out for whatever reason. I'll post a status list later when maps start getting submitted. No deadlines right now. Most of you guys can balance real life and mapping. The deadlines will start when progress stops.

If I forgot you (which I'm sure I did for many of you), just let me know... I'm only a bee after all. :3
[Edit]Also, mappers are limited to one map a piece. Slots are too limited to allow multiple map submissions.[/Edit]

I started on a new map a while ago...so I may as well finish it. Sign meh up :D

my map name is "Sarcomatosis". i might do 2 maps though. good choice in using my suggestion, constriction.

Since I have a partially completed map, I'll be in for 1024-3. I've been playing with names for it but I'm not sure I've thought of something for sure yet.

Uhhh.....already? Jeez.

I was about to say the same thing... Where's the second one? :\

The last one is virtually done, and most people from the last 1024 have nearly finished maps for 1024-3. Lets hope this one doesn't take 4 months to make :P.

(EDIT) I'll take map 31 or 32, if still open.

Im taking a higher up slot this time (Im aiming for 27)

The current map name is Downward Bound (Until/unless I come up with something better)

first shot has some updates that ill stick in later

Meh I guess I'll join again. I need to do something doom map releated.

I've never tried making a 1024 map. I might give it a go.

I cannot start mapping until November, I've got exams to do, so would it be okay if you could reserve a spot for me? I would appreciate it :)
I'm thinking of making a plutonia styled map to start with so it should be relatively hard so anywhere in the 2nd or 3rd episode would be dandy.

If you would like to know what work I've done:
I've contributed 3 ndcp2 maps, and uploaded a half-arsed jokewad 'The Hells Grammar School'.
Some screens here on WIP>

Cheers.

There is no time! 1024-3 is expecting a Halloween release date. We may be able to squeeze you in for 1024-4 but it will be a tight pinch.

Damn, double damn and a pint of damn.

Well, just keep me on hold ;). I finish my exams by the 7th of November so 2 weeks after that should be enough time for me at least.
Either one of the long C-word projects is fine, I'm flexible :p

Im seriously thinking if I should do a "commander keen" hunt map. Dare I?

Dare away!! I think thats a cool idea.

Btw, count me in for 1024-3. Definitely!

Mionic is joking. This project probably won't be done for quite a while. You've got plenty of time to finish your exams and contribute to this one.

And here it is. Behold.....

Yeah sorry i couldnt resist the opportunity. The project has plenty of time (Hell, even its predecessor hasnt hit the methophoric shelves yet) YOu got time to go.

That reminds me. When is this one expected to be out? (If thelast one came out about 3 months after the thread launched, will this one be any different?)

They weren't very hard to find.

Haha, no worries, my fault for not getting the joke. I remembered that Claustrophobia was aiming for a halloween release and I went, what the hell? *slaps myself*

Thanks for the opportunity DD, the texture resources' is verrry nice too, just what I needed, less stress in finding nice textures. :)
So I am allowed to have different skies in my maps? Just asking so I can make sure it will be accepted, with the compatibility issues and all that.

Yup, you sure can. There are a slew of new skies in the texture resource :D

Yeah, you can use the sky transfer to apply any sky you wish from Mech's texture compilation. Sky transfer is not really a Boom feature, but most all Boom-compatible ports support it anyway, so it's allowed.

[Edit]Heh. Mech answered the question first... oh well, I tried. ;)[/Edit]

I thought i said to you Death-Destiny that i'm out of this project when it comes to mapping? I'm way too busy working on Xenus 3 right now, all i can do for you now only, is the goddamn testing :P so yeah scrap my mapping position

Two screenshooters to help get everyone moving along:



I'm going to make the difficulty somewhere around the Map01-05 range...atleast that's the plan right now ;P. 60%-ish done.

Gunmetal gray and dogshit brown. :o

Count me in for a map

All my screencaps from the other thread, plus a few new ones at the end.

I'd like to have a slot as well. Difficulty would be around the level 20something range.

Let me in on this. :)

Can I make a map for this?

ME IN NOW!!!:p
