HumanBones Posted February 26, 2012 I’m pleased to announce the first Odamex Saturday Nitro Mapping Event! If you haven’t heard of Odamex Saturday Nitro, it is a weekly event held on Odamex that brings everyone together to play their favorite wads which has become very popular and is helping to shape the Odamex community. Nitro is a great place to showcase all types of wads, and that’s where this mapping event comes in. I’d like to get a bunch of people together to make some DM maps specifically for a Nitro session. The maps will be compiled into one wad and it will be run as one of our weekly sessions. Hopefully most of you can participate, but let’s get into the details first: Deadlines Start date: February 26th End date: March 2nd - This means ALL maps must be submitted to me by 11:59pm on the 2nd. We want to make sure the wad is ready to go by Saturday at 8pm. Resources Let’s not go crazy this time around. No custom textures or graphics: Doom 2 resources only! A midi for your map is fine. This time around, I’m looking for at least 12-16 medium or large-sized maps. If we get more people willing to make maps, that’s great! You also have to remember that the player limit for most sessions is 12, so we don’t want to make any maps too small. I would say a map that fits 8 or more players at a time is acceptable. I don’t think I forgot any details, but you can either post your questions here or find me in #odamex on irc.quakenet.org / irc.oftc.net and I can hopefully answer them for you.

spaztacus Posted February 26, 2012 I've never made a DM level before, but I think I'll take a crack at it. Map 6 sounds good 0 Share this post Link to post
HumanBones Posted February 26, 2012 Alright, got you guys down. Excited to see what you come up with! 0 Share this post Link to post
Walter confetti Posted February 26, 2012 mmm.... since i'm not so good at dm mapping, i'll take map16... also i'll see to chop something in this week checking also other maps (actually EXEC and DWANGO5 sessions liked me a lot...) 0 Share this post Link to post
HumanBones Posted February 27, 2012 Got you down. I should specify that maps can use boom and hexen map format as long as the features work in Odamex 0.5.6. There is a great list of which features are supported and which are not, and you can find it here. 0 Share this post Link to post

TMD Posted February 28, 2012 Im in for the next time this thing comes around, but youve picked the second most inconvenient week of the year for me to be doing non school stuff. Unless the next version of this falls on numero uno, I'll be interested next time. Gret concept though! 0 Share this post Link to post

HumanBones Posted February 28, 2012 I'll give you map14. We're making great progress so far, there is one map that is already completed and I've seen the layouts of a few others. 0 Share this post Link to post
Walter confetti Posted February 28, 2012 send the beta of my map via PM to human bones, check them... new music is allowed? all right, read the OP, i've seen to add a new midi if it's ok.... 0 Share this post Link to post
Dragonsbrethren Posted March 1, 2012 My map's done in terms of layout, just need to do spawn and weapon placements. Edit: 0 Share this post Link to post
HumanBones Posted March 2, 2012 Wow, that looks pretty awesome. Can't wait to see it all finished! EDIT: Bucket, that'd be great if you can. We need a new map03. 0 Share this post Link to post
Captain Toenail Posted March 2, 2012 If you are interested I have these 3 maps I created for AlexMax's Grab Bag server. Feel free to include them in this pack if you want. They were for a personal deathmatch wad I was creating, but I lost interest. http://www.mediafire.com/?1ii7j3zhhvlo8mh 0 Share this post Link to post
