I'm looking to make a joint mappack with about 10 - 15 authors contributing.

If you want to join, then just post here.


EDIT : I know MOA is going on but this is not just a copy (I hope ), i'm trying to make it different.

Details

Mappack is going to consist of 100 maps, each containing roughly at least 8 from each author. I am aiming for an atmospheric and episodic feel to each level and we will hopefully end up with 100 unique maps. We need a judging system for how good a map has to be considered to pass. It fully depends on how many authors we wil end up on.

Sounds interesting.
What kind of maps were you thinking of?

I was thinking of about 5 columns of maps, each very atmospheric and unique. Quite episodic in a way, I think.

Ill do a couple of levels if you would like.

I can do a couple of levels if you like.

5 columns is a lot of maps. Are you sure that's what you meant?

Actually yes, I agree with lord_day.
5 columns is 50 levels. İf you are counting episodic.,
And suppose every autho makes 5 maps.
You will need 10 authors, which is very hard to organize things.
And since everybody can't mke good maps in a short time, so suppose that every author makes 3-2 maps.
You will need 25 to 16.666666666666666666666666666667 authors.
So 5 columns is too much.
Are you sure about that?
Note:
25 authors-hard to find-( may change )
-hard to organize-.

I'm not sure if you meant 50 episodes, because 5 columns is 250 levels.

Sorry for that, I meant 50 episodes. And furry ant, it's way too much levels.Even 1 column is enough, but if you are planning a huge project which there will be lots of authors, even then 50 episodes are way too much.

Yeah, you're right, about 1 or at most 2 columns is definitely enough.

I'll join when the details are sorted.

Its already been moved

;P

EDIT: OK, I'll join up, but my maps will probably be crap.

Also a couple of questions:
Do they have to be completely original (in other words do we create them from scratch or can we use them from previous maps, mappacks, etc)?
Can they be submitted to NUMA?

I really don't mind whether you create them from scratch or if you salvage some parts from another map as long the end product is good.

And you can submit them to NUMA but I would prefer it if this happens after the mappack is finished.

And I'm sure you're maps won't be crap ;P

I'm in.

:D

I'm in both MoA and ADS...

this'll be fun :D

Cheez pleez.

I'll help if you needs it. :D

sure, if you want.

;P

So Like what types of maps is the Map pack going to be mainly based on?
like are you going to asign like "Gods_Reaper do map numbers 1 - 5"?????

I wouldnt really assign map numbers like that, I think we should first get the maps done, then arrange them into an order that seems right.

Also one more question. When we make a map for the map pack.
do we put ADS in the tabs or something along that line?

yeah, or just put 'a dying sonata' . Either way is fine.

Im having the worst mind blank this second. i get on N i cant think of anything to make. so i might not be making alot of maps. lol
