17buddies Solstice Mapping Contest, Counter Strike 1.6 Options

Hopefully I'll have enough time to finish it.

[Chapo]

You should make a Romanian team (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/gap.gif)

Really happy to see all those mappers joining our contest.. (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/bravo.gif) (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/felicitation.gif)

[fr33pr0d]

That's exactly what I was thinking.. if everybody agrees (romanians that is), maybe we should keep it 'old school' and name the team 'Romanian Mappers' (or RM) (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Edit: damn.. it changed my flag automatically to UK. Any chance I can get the romanian flag back? (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_biggrin.gif)

[Chapo]

It was a joke (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Actual contest is for individual mappers.

But if you think it's a good idea, maybe one day we could do a contest with countries teams. (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_oui.gif)

Flag can't be changed once recognized by my scripts (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

[Max (von A)]

I'm in this, Chapo:

[Chapo]

Thank you Max. (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/felicitation.gif)

Remember to send me your email by PM (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

And you can give me the link of your community in order for me to add it to the "thanks" list (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Edit: got it with your 'www' profile button (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_razz.gif)

[Chapo]

Added links to mapper's maps (if present).

You just have to click on registered mappers to see their creations (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_oui.gif)

Search is made by searching exact provided name, so mappers, verify that all your maps have the right mapper's name (if not you can edit name by clicking on "edit" button on each detail page, in 'summary' zone).

If you don't have maps yet, it doesn't matter: novices are welcome (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

[tizu]

Added links to mapper's maps (if present).

Love the idea. +1

Welcome fr33pr0d, thanks for joining! (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_kimouss.gif)

[Guest_Dominio_*]

as we said above, we can add those special textures to 17bsolstice.wad if you want (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Yes, good idea...
But if somebody has 17bsolstice.wad in cstrike folder, he will has to delete it and download again with new textures, if I understand it.

How I understood, it is old-school competition? Where I can release my map?

About links... Please, add this link to itself on a site. It is very large site devoted to GoldSrc and Source models. Now I translate it into English. Very useful website for any mapper. Enjoy it!

Sorry for my English. I badly study English in school =)

Nothing to worry about your english. I've studied English for 10 years and I'm still a newb (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_biggrin.gif)

And to answer your questions:
1. Old-school, new school, it is important to create a nice map with good design and playability.
2. The team its still debating about where players should upload their maps after their done with it. Nothing to worry, we will find a special place for mappers and we will announce it. 17buddies is doing their best to satisfy everyone.

[mr_ZAZA]

1. Well, if the wads & models only standard, so contest is old-school.
2. We can upload our maps here - http://www.map-factory.org/counter-strike, and then write links here.

Nothing to worry about your english. I've studied English for 10 years and I'm still a newb (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_biggrin.gif)

I'm in ninth form now. And I study English 9 years. But I don't know it well (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Therefore I should apologize.

[tizu]

Well buddy, old-school can be described in several ways.... with default textures, with default designs, after the default maps in cs, etc. So, its interpretable. (So its not so old-school afterall) (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_biggrin.gif)

We have our own texture to work with 17bSolstice.wad AND you can use this page for models: http://test.tiger.powa.fr/models/html/models.html

There is no need to upload on second party website, we got our own website (17buddies.net) to upload. (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

[Chapo]

We have until 20 April to discuss rules. (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

For submissions, I think 17buddies would be a good place, isn't it ? (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_ane.gif)

For the moment I'm thinking about a way to upload your maps anonymously in order for us not to be influenced by our respective affinities. (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_cool.gif)

When judged, of course each map should be renamed with xx_17bsolstice_mappername (or something approaching) (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_oui.gif)



Edit: Héhé..Zaza managed to place his link (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/gap.gif) (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/ami2.gif)

[Chapo]

Here is the new 17bsolstice.wad file with special textures included.

 17bsolsticecontent.jpg ( 323.61K ) Number of downloads: 63


For your information, 17buddies offers you the possibility to see wads content by clicking on each "content" link (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)


Download here the new 17bsolstice wad file.

(same link as first topic)

[Chapo]

ZAZA: when I look at this map or this one, shouldn't your registered mapper's name be mr_ZAZA instead of ZAZA ?

[mr_ZAZA]

Yes, but when I was registered, name ZAZA was already taken.

[xaxatyh]

can the prize be taken in money? )

ZAZA=>doesn't matter. Tell me what is your real mapper's name and we will see what we can do to fix the problem.

XaxaTyH => I will put your face on frontpage with pleasure (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_ane.gif) Welcome.

Not easy with mobile device (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_razz.gif) )

[Max (von A)]

Hi all, a question:

That troubles me a lot, I usually sign my map, with an image (wad) "Map by Max (von A) ... etc", that image is a wadinclude, that hidden somewhere in the map, however if not allow wadinclude, how I can sign my map?

Again I deeply thank you for remembering 17buddies (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/felicitation.gif) mappers we like counter-strike 1.6, see here many acquaintances, as my friend Tatu Eugen and other mappers whose maps I played many times in my server. We played yesterday your map Tizu: awp_darkcrypt (not knowing that you are one of the participants) and your map awp_dreamsereves was on several occasions in our 3on3 tournament (like any other Tatu's maps).

All excellent mappers, I wish you good luck.

Im worried for not arriving in time, because I am very obsessive... and it takes me up to 4/6 months to finish a map (de_cesky_krumlov were 6 months! LOL (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/blush.gif) ) but I play in this competition, to know this new experience.

(my english is of google translation, sorry (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_decu.gif) )

Un abrazo amigos!!!

[Chapo]

I was waiting for this question (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_ane.gif)

On june, 20 th, your maps must be anonymous to be judged, but once judged, you will be able to add a wadinclude with your logo/banner/name and publish it with that signature.

Is that ok?

If not, we will be forced to allow wadinlude for mapper's signature and submissions won't be anonymous. It' s your choice (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_neutral.gif)

[Chapo]

can the prize be taken in money? )

As you can see on all pages of our site, our donation box is desperately empty, or at least doesn't cover at all the costs of our server.

In addition, we don't have any sponsors (anyway, we didn't asked for..).

So you can easily understand that we can absolutely not convert prizes in money. (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Perhaps I could pay with my body, but I'm not sure you will be interrested (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/blonde.gif)

You'll have to compete for fun and competitive spirit, but I know it's your mindset at all. (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_oui.gif)

What's the problem Kira. ?

[Chapo]

My adviser S3B ((IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_ane.gif) ) slips me in the ear that in any case it will be able to recognize your creations, even if you post them anonymously. (call him 'God' please ..) (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/icon_cool.gif) (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/gap.gif)

Accordingly, I inform you that:

. first the submissions can be sent with your username,

. secondly, you're allowed to wadinclude a logo or a banner in order to sign your map (but you're not allowed to incorporate other textures not in relation to signature).

We will check that very carefully and wadincluding non authorized textures will be disqualifying (IMG:http://forum.17buddies.rocks/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
