Linguica Posted September 3, 2000 What has it been now? Two weeks or so? Well, the entries for our 10 Sectors Contest continue to trickle in. I hope things pick up towards the end -- maybe the early birds have already made their WADs and the lazy people have yet to make theirs. I think people are really going to like the final megawad -- there's a lot of good people entering. As for the WADs which don't make it into the megawad, I might release a second megawad, or failing that, I'll release them all in some form anyway. I've been getting some more good WADs, including some larger ones, which this one in the screenshots is not.(img)(img)(img) 0 Share this post Link to post
prower Posted September 3, 2000 Those are definitely from Ola Bjorling's level. Both texture thematically and level design, they fit his style. 0 Share this post Link to post
Linguica Posted September 3, 2000 It's funny how people say they KNOW who made some certain level and they are always wrong... 0 Share this post Link to post

NiGHTMARE Posted September 3, 2000 It could be by Tobias Forsberg, it looks kinda similar to his Ropy levels. 0 Share this post Link to post
stphrz Posted September 3, 2000 It could be any number of people. That theme and design style has been done lots. 0 Share this post Link to post
Linguica Posted September 4, 2000 Post a message and they'll be set automatically... 0 Share this post Link to post
sgtcrispy Posted September 4, 2000 Hey all! Is the damn irc.core.com down or is it mIRC just acting up? 0 Share this post Link to post
Test-0 Posted September 4, 2000 I was playing Doom, and I killed a bunch of Zombies, and then said, "I see dead people..." ;) What? You were expecting something inteligent? :^) Test-0 0 Share this post Link to post
AndrewB Posted September 4, 2000 Hmm? irc.core.com? irc.telefragged.com is what you want. 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest LordUnum Posted September 4, 2000 Nothing's more intelligent than the joke that goes something like: "Why don't black people steal from the Jews?" ...just for the record. 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest o-tech Posted September 4, 2000 I haven't submitted my map yet... and it doesn't have a single brick wall in it. So there. 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest Niptlar Posted September 4, 2000 Because of this graphics card contest, there aren't any more SP levels appearing the /newstuff directory. Damn you, Doomworld! 0 Share this post Link to post
Linguica Posted September 4, 2000 But there will be many more once this contest is done :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Jon Posted September 4, 2000 It's funny... the efnet cr3w are idle like mad so surely they are in the wrong channel.... This contest appears to be too much about the people and not enough about the levels. 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest Retter Posted September 4, 2000 Through all these posts, no one has addressed a multiplayer issue, probably because it was not mentioned in the contest criteria. Seeing as this megawad will be highly anticipated, I can see it being played on doomserv and csdoom. Has anyone given any thought to deathmatch playability even though it was not mentioned in the rules ? Just wondering.. 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest o-tech Posted September 4, 2000 I think it would be cool to have a second contest with the same rules, only it will have to be a DM map... that could be a lot of fun and when I first heard of this current contest I thought it would be DM actually. The problem would be for Ling to shake out a worthy price for a second contest... perhaps a graphics card with an Nvidia chipset? ;-)I think that there is little point in playing the levels in the current contest in DM since they are all so tweaked towards SP play. I doubt even cooperative will be possible in all maps... Sector merging and multiple doors using the same sector etc will make the levels work poorly in coop. At least my map :-) 0 Share this post Link to post
fen boi Posted September 4, 2000 I'll probably put in an extra section for DM only (tweak part of the existing map), depends on how much time i get... and whether it sucks or not :) 0 Share this post Link to post
NiGHTMARE Posted September 4, 2000 Heh, some of the Surge 1 levels are probably less than 10 sectors :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest o-tech Posted September 4, 2000 Oh yeah, a separate DM arena would be cool... using the same sectors ofcourse. I think I'll do that :-) 0 Share this post Link to post
KinkaJoy Posted September 4, 2000 Oh yeah. Good idea. And I just realized a really cool way to have the Deathmatch be played on a part of the regular level. But I think I'll keep it to myself, considering the fact that this is a contest, and I don't want to give all my secrets away to my opponents. 0 Share this post Link to post
NiGHTMARE Posted September 4, 2000 I just realise the contest won't be over until I go back to university. I hope the WAD(s) won't be too big, 'caus I'll be stuck with a crappy 56.6 that I have to pay the equivalent of about 13 cents a minute for instead of this nice cablemodem :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Risen Posted September 4, 2000 Oh wait, No it's not. I haven't submitted it yet. Never mind. 0 Share this post Link to post
Swedish Fish Posted September 4, 2000 This is disgusting! This is a prime example of how money manipulates people. If Linguica didn't have prizes do you think lazy slackers like Ola would do anything. Does this mean if I want to make a megawad I have to offer my mappers video cards for every ten sectors they lay down. Sick I tell you. Oh, you ask how my submission is going? Good, thanks. hehe :) 0 Share this post Link to post
kristus Posted September 4, 2000 My map would work in DM and Coop like a llama would work as sexual partner. Specially bad would Coop be. I suppose the reason this contest is single player maps is that there's not hard at all to make a dm map with or with less than 10 sectors. 0 Share this post Link to post
