Solid Colors Jam, a community map jam!
WARNING: SOME SOURCE-PORTS (ex. VKQuake) SEEM TO HAVE SLIGHT COMPATIBILITY ISSUE, WHERE START MAP'S SKY BRUSHES WILL APPEAR CYAN, THAT'S ON SOURCE-PORTS' FAULT. FOR BEST EXPERIENCE, CHECK OUT BOTH Ironwail AND Qrusty Quake.
Solid Colors Jam is a quake jam where mappers were given a .wad file that contains only solid colors (+purely technical ones) and only that wad was allowed to be used. Shifting focus away from huge library of pretty textures to brushwork and lighting. The idea for the jam came from browsing my favorites maps with r_lightmap 1 command on (only lightmaps visible), admiring how those maps looked great with all textures stripped down.
Despite these odd and specific restrictions the jam's collection holds 14 maps (+start map).
