Bastet Furry Posted February 13, 2007 I have a nice little idea for a compo and i would like to know your oppinions. What about a Doom Movie compo where we all create a short (~15 minute) movie WAD. Rules for discusion: Maximum WAD size: 2 to 4 MiByte Engine: Anyone that can be scripted Content: No porn, everything else should be ok. Deadline: Dunno, 3 months? Maybe this could even be some official compo for DW with prices from sponsors? 0 Share this post Link to post
Naked Snake Posted February 13, 2007 rofl. DW was once lucky enough to have a contest with some real prizes involved. If anything, this should be something you yourself should organize. No prizes, it should be just for fun. 0 Share this post Link to post
Dr. Zin Posted February 13, 2007 Are you proposing a mapset made completely of cutscenes? 0 Share this post Link to post
Naked Snake Posted February 13, 2007 Yeah, basically he wants to make Doom machinama. Not a bad idea, but coming from this clown it just sounds like a waste of time. EDIT : I can't script. I can't map (yet) but I can sure as hell write a good script that would make a neat Doom machinama, so if anyone actually wants to do one and doesn't really have or want to think up an idea, just ask me. 0 Share this post Link to post
Vegeta Posted February 14, 2007 Nothing could beat "Imp Encounter", you have action, suspense, laughs, and sex, how could you beat that? 0 Share this post Link to post
Bastet Furry Posted February 14, 2007 Naked Snake said:[...] but coming from this clown it just sounds like a waste of time. Um, yeah.... and why am i supposed to be a clown? For my bad English? Because i have been "loosered" for being a furry? Its a nice idea to have some compos, most times it produces quality material and people tend to have fun matching up against others. So, where am i the clown here? We should better start to discuss the rule framework for this one ;) @Vegeta: Um, yeah, its a porn movie made for zDoom. For my own movie i thought about some WoD:ApocalypseNeverHappend:2033-thingaboo. :) 0 Share this post Link to post
leileilol Posted February 14, 2007 15 minutes for staring at small centered on screen messages? No thanks thats not how I get action. 0 Share this post Link to post
Grazza Posted February 14, 2007 I think you are underestimating the potential of the genre. Consider this masterpiece by Cyb (from here). 0 Share this post Link to post
Antidote Posted February 14, 2007 I'd like PRICES from sponsors. How about they say "$50" to put an advert on our site, could be interesting. 0 Share this post Link to post
amberleaf Posted February 15, 2007 Whilst it sounds like a really good idea I fear that there just aint enough people with the skills to do it. I bet there would be less than 5 entries. 0 Share this post Link to post
Scuba Steve Posted February 15, 2007 I have been thinking of holding a series of competitions and games for prizes here on Doomworld. Would people be interested in donating money to buy things... and what things would make good prizes for a "Doom" world? If there is any interest I may blog more on this and actually go ahead if there is enough support. 0 Share this post Link to post
Bastet Furry Posted February 15, 2007 @Scuba: I would donate some spare Euros for some compos *g* But it would be better to find some real sponsors, at least for those big compos. Otherwise, what about Hissy as a price? 0 Share this post Link to post
Scuba Steve Posted February 16, 2007 Right, high profile companies are just lining up to be part of an unofficial, 12 year old game advertising campaign and competition. 0 Share this post Link to post
Bastet Furry Posted February 16, 2007 Might be that i missed something, but please look at the sponsors for promoting remakes of old games... (Bottom of page) ;) It aint the cream de la cream, but it did the job. 0 Share this post Link to post
Scuba Steve Posted February 16, 2007 Well Bastet (I just realized, after 5 years, it's not Basset) If we could get some sponsors that woudl be great, I just don't see many people chomping at the bit to donate to some community competitions. But cool if they will... ...posting a blog about this to talk about it more... 0 Share this post Link to post

scwiba Posted February 17, 2007 Antidote said:I thought it was Bastard Fury for awhile when I first saw his name. Haha, wow. I read it as Basket Fury for the longest time. On topic, while Machinima is always cool, I'm not sure how much you can do within the engine, or how many people will be interested. 0 Share this post Link to post

Guest DILDOMASTER666 Posted February 18, 2007 Furries unite, eh. Anyway, on the note of filesize, why not just see how much as a community we can fit into 1MB, 2MB, etc... (some unreasonably small filesize for 10 maps or so) ? 0 Share this post Link to post
