So yeah, steam has/had a sale of psychonauts for $2, and since I heard it was an under-appreciated game or something a long time ago I thought I'd check it out. Lucky me it's ~4GB, and with DA:O, an unfinished assassin's creed, and a few other hefty games, my laptop is bursting at the seems for memory (yet again). And I do have an external, but between some games I've moved to that and a bunch of anime and a few random movies like FF souls withing and damnatus (that WH40k fan-made movie that got swiped by the WH peoples, not sure what eventually happened with it), I've got maybe 20-30GB of 230GB left. Not bad, but doesn't exactly leave me with much room to dl stuff. That turned into a nice rant didn't it ...
Well, part 2. Organic chemistry labs. Either my lab prof is reeeeally strict, or organic chem is just a whole nother level of tough ... carbon-copy notebooks? Actually needing to read from a techniques book to do labs? A bunch of randomly-cool-but-hard-to-remember-names-of-glassware? At least my lec prof is rather easy -.-
So besides waiting while psychonauts dls and installs at 1 am before I go to bed after thinking wth and starting the install(not a smart move, but I wasn't thinking -.-), I'm kinda bugged I haven't had a new thought for a map all day. They've been coming fast and furiously since like last week, but I guess the full impact of the semester has hit and the ideas are going to be fewer until spring break. It might just start being 1/2/3 monster maps to explore synergy(still with gothictx, can't imagine mapping w/o now, if just for the wfall/lavafall textures ... especially the lavafall tex ;P).
Well ... still another 60%ish to go ... hmm. Looks to be another hour + 1/2, not gonna stay up that long, so yeah, poll ideas >:D- Show previous comments 9 more

Play some more wads. When you pour everything into your maps, you use all your fresh ideas. Play some other people's maps for inspiration.
Recently I had some serious mapper's block. Then I tried the megawad Vile Flesh for the first time and played a couple maps from it. Next time I opened DB2 I was drawing sectors like a maniac. - Show next comments 3 more
