Subject description: Tiberian Sun / Firestorm Singleplayer Mapping Competition
Reply with quote  Mark this post and the followings unread



It's been a very long time since a Tiberian Sun mapping competition, and Ixith and I where discussing it yesterday so I feel its a good idea to start up a new one quite similar to the C.C.C but for Tiberian Sun. This mapping competition will be about Single-player mapping rather than Multi-player mapping as there are very few single-player mappers in the community (Myself being one of them).
There was an S.M.M.C A Long time a go which never took place, and I feel that it was a shame that it never took place (As I wanted to enter it), but non-the-less, I feel being as the C.C.C went smoothly, I'll host another mapping competition.

Rules:

1 - Only One map per entrant
2 - Any map entered by the creator must be larger than 85 x 85 otherwise their map will be marked as void and will not be judged in the competition.
3 - The entries must be completely new. No re-makes of maps, no copy and pasted terrain from any other maps.
4 - If you post any previews of your maps anywhere before the competition deadline, you will be disqualified and your map will be marked as void and will not be judged in the competition.
5 - Once submitted, entries cannot be changed, unless the version submitted is clearly at incomplete
6 - Entries must be submitted to Aro (Me) by the December 8th(00:00GMT)
7 - Terrain expansions of any kind are NOT allowed.
8 - The Map you submit can be for either Normal Tiberian sun or it can use Firestorm terrain, its your choice.
9 - SINGLE PLAYER MAPS ONLY!
10 - More than one person can work as a team effort on one map but a deduction will be made from the overall score of that map.
11 - Modified Tutorial.ini's are allowed and recommended.

Judging:

Judging will be done by Aro (Me), Ixith, Morpher and blubb.

- Detail work and LAT placement.
- Map layout
- Map Lighting
- General Game play on your submission
- Trigger work

Will be out of 100 points, based on the criteria listed just above.

20 points for Detail
20 points for Layout
20 points for Lighting
20 points for Game play
20 points for Triggers.

Once you feel you've completed a submission, send it to Aro (Me) Via Private Message (PM) only, not via I.M Client.

Good luck entrants!

wow, you must have much time if you want to counter-check the submitted maps with every other existing map. Very Happy

Isn't this a bit short? Only 1 Month?

Anyway, good luck to all the participants.

I Do have a lot of free time but I'm not going to go over every map to check them for copy and pasted terrain. Razz
One month should be enough time but If not, I'll extend the deadline like in the C.C.C.

Allowed to have a modified tutorial.ini surely?

Also I wouldn't mind judging even though I'm not a pro mapper.

Good to see you came up with a decent name for it Aro. lol
Also glad to see that Blubb has been added to a judging spot and think that Morpher would do well too.

I've done some single-player maps for my mod (YR)
but I'm not great at it, especially at TS.

Waiting for all the cool ideas for a campaign!

Because it isn't. Original TS single-player maps make the competition more interesting.

Ah, come on.

No matter. I've already started. The basic layout is done. And the idea is original to the extent that I've never seen it before.

I recommend having the author of each map unknown to the judges. A person should be sent every map, who in turn sends the maps with the author unknown to the judges. When the maps are judged, the authors will be known. This is to prevent ANY biased ratings (No, I'm not saying that I'm not trusting the judges, but you never know, and besides, it feels safer!).

As for the competition, I MIGHT be in.

I might join... I'm already starting work on a single player map that I thought up on my own, it's very empty still, so I'm going to work on it, and possibly submit it if I finish it before the deadline. #Tongue I know my map is going to be good, for me atleast, since I know it'll be of my design Very Happy Anywho, I might join if I finish it in time, depending on my work schedual, and school work...

A Fair suggestion Crash but there's no need for it. There will be no biased ratings, I've already assured that.

Quick question... Will the detail be for the play area only? Or the ENTIRE map, even if part of it is unused?

Well they should really mark it based on how it plays, so it should be what players see ingame.

Well within reason. Remember it has to be over 85x85. #Tongue So I'd keep the detailed/play area around that or bigger.

i felt the sudden need to bump this topic and remind everyone that the deadline is still set for November 2nd. which is approximately 3 weeks from now.

So keep up the mapping and make sure those triggers work as they will be critical to your SP map! Razz

If any of you need an extended deadline don't hesitate to let me know. I Know Crimsonum so he'll more than likely need an extended deadline, anyone else think that they wont be able to finish on time?
