sm220 'Prototype Jam # 3 : Copper Edition' Announced!

[alekswithak]

Lots of new faces here in the QM scene, so let's bridge the gap between newcomers and veterans with a Prototype Jam event! The theme of this jam will, of course, be the use of Khreathor's Prototype Texture WAD. The idea will be a focus on gameplay - take whatever extra energy you would normally pour into visuals and use it for building fun and engaging scenarios and encounters. Novel mechanics and gimmicks are welcome, but some good old fashioned Quake gameplay is the main aim. This event will run for one week, and will be the first prototype jam to use Lunaran's Copper Quake Mod! Looking forward to your entries - happy mapping, friends!

- Countdown / DEADLINE EXTENSION -

due to high demand, we are extending the jam THROUGH THE WEEKEND. While this does make the jam much longer than what would be a normal speedmapping event, I would rather break those conventions and ensure that more people get to participate. We are a community, and this is something people collectively want, then let's do it ! Check the provided link for the new countdown https://www.tickcounter.com/countdown/3438239/my-countdown

Really wish I could do something for this, but CTSJ2 knocked me flat. Have a good one, y'all!

 

[krak]

Tight on time, but I will try!

 

[alekswithak]

As previously mentioned on the QM discord, the goal of starting this on this weekend is to get people in VC to map together - be sure to make time this weekend to drop in and hang out!

 

[Esrael]

Provided you're in the Quake Mapping discord to begin with.

If this is an SM focused on participation in the QM VC, maybe it's worth linking QM.

If it's not clear what the heck is that, then that's a tower! Since there's no fence texture (for grates and so on) inside of proto wad I had to create it with brushes (grate), but it's just placeholder
PS. Really cool feature to be able to manually rezise screenshots icons. Appreciated. Thanks!
