New mapping project [ins_] [CLOSED]
THIS PROJECT HAS BEEN CLOSED DUE TO THE LACK OF INTEREST
--------------------ATTENTION!!!--------------------
I call every mapper out there!
A new project from insilio!
There's a little scenario of 15 speedclimb and bhop (FoF_dale and other similar map style) maps. Each one ~1-2 min long. 1st map's finish equals 2nd map's start and so on. If we could make this happen then it's over 9000 times bigger project than communityblock.
Prefered name: ins_story_ExPy where x = Episode number and y = Part number. (Name can and maybe will be changed)
Prefered lenght: 1-2 min each. 15-30 min total.
Prefered mapping time: max 1 week for each part. Totally 15 weeks a.k.a. 4 months.
Why?: There are not very big action of mapping nowadays (or everyone is mapping some uber projects). This one is meant to relax. Map for fun.
Ok, here's the story:
Chapter 1 - The town
Part 1 - The happenng
You start off in a cosy town. Everyone knows everyone here.
You have been living here for about 4 years now. This is your home.
You walk (jump) the streets as suddenly everything collapses. Everything
you once knew perishes into flames and dust. You keep on running through
those narrow streets to get to main hall.
Part 2 - Meet the Kolin
As you have almost reached the main hall, suddenly ground collapses
and you go underground, through old houses and over rooftops. You must get
to your goal. But as you go further you slowly start to realise that it is
impossible to reach a safe place. You head straight to your friends house.
Part 3 - Get out
Kolin Zipper (your friend) tells you that it is an attack of
"Xtreme Junks" corporation. You decide to bring them down once for all.
Your next goal: get out of this town. You run as fast as you can to not get
caught by invading soldiers. After some while, you manage to reach the town's
sewer system. Nobody will find you there and it leads outside this town.
Chapter 2 - The sewers
Part 1 - Dirty stuff
You are finally there. Now it's a safe route to mountain pass.
But is it? As you wander further, you start to realise how big this sewer
system is. After some route finding you finally manage to get to sewer system
main core.
Part 2 - Lost and found
You find a big map on the side of wall. Now, let's see. Right, left,
left, forward, right... Not so hard, eh? You start to jump over those shitty
rivers, but when you get to your third turn, you realise that the way is closed.
You must find another way. Again. After some time, you wander into right route again.
Part 3 - To the mountains
This part of sewers is dirtier than anything else. And you find yourself
stuck almost on every corner. But as you go further, you catch a glimpse of light
just through those nasty iron rails. Some more turns and you are out.
Chapter 3 - The mountain pass
Part 1 - Fresh air
Yes! Finally fresh air and sun shining down at you. But you still have
work to be done. You keep climbing and running as fast as you can. Some signs
of civilization here and there, you know that there is another town nearby.
But when you look up, you realise that you will stay all night climbing
your way to that town. And there is rain coming.
Part 2 - Murky night
Rain plus rocks equals nightmare. Everything is slippery. You try to
hold on and keep on climbing. Light! You see a little camp. Nobody's there though.
You jump and jump until you finally reach that little warm spot right to those
nice and warm flames. You fall asleep.
Part 3 - To the town
*Yawn* Now that's what you call sleeping. The fire is off and it's mid-day
already. You continue your journey until you reach the hunter's hideout.
From there it's only few steps to get to that little town where you are headed at
the moment.
Chapter 4 - Town of dead
Part 1 - What the heL^_x?
As you reach "Totstadt" (that is the name of that town), you get another
suprise - there is nobody here and everything looks abandoned and creepy.
You wander deeper in the town to find out what is going on in here.
Part 2 - Help and clues
As you look into every corner, you can see some kind of messages here
and there. Some say "Get out", other's "This way", but the most suprising message is
"XJ did it" signed by KZ.
Part 3 - To the XJ
You start following the clues and relise that XJ's main core is somewhere nearby.
Maybe even in this town. You start to look around and search for entrance.
And there it is - a little air condition pipe. You jump in.
Last chapter - Xtreme Junks
Part 1 - Getting around
Ouch! Bah! Omg! You fall onto a crate. A quick look around. You are in
some kind of storage room. So many crates. Jump jump and crawl your way through
antil you reach a hallway. Broken floor and blocked paths, what a suprise (-.-).
You climb your way up and down until you reach control room. But what does it control?
Part 2 - The core
You rush out and a yawdropping view uncovers - the Main Core.
You see a little crack here and there. hmm... You could use those as steps to get up.
After some while and sweat you get to the top. Well, almost top. You have already
figured out that this must be in some kind of mountain because you can see rocks
where there is no concrete on walls. You get into another control room.
Part 3 - The great escape.
You push the red button that says "do not push". Alarm goes off.
Everything will collapse in just a second, you must be quick. Just head through this corridor,
then through this hole, into that shaft, up and down, left and right...
After breathtaking running you finally manage to get out right on top of that facility. You are free.
And the world is saved.
Please inform me here or w/ pm if you want to participate.
I'll start mapping soon, just need to finish some things. Next week approximately.
All participants and the current development of the project, can be found here: Link to insilio's forum thread.
I did read about this from ur blog, sounds very interesting. And also, when it's about custom map, i maybe would take a part ;)
i'd participate in chpater3 part2, looks interesting ;) although i don't know about lightning, sky, and other effects, so inform me, and if you got any picture or sth else for inspiration, it would be perfect. (or draw pic by yourself :) )
i was thinking about something similar, would call it kz_project22 (or some other interesting number), but my idea was to make a very long map, full of adventure, looking like reddeath, but a bit different architecture and effects.
wow that's something i'd love to see in action. ;)
Very nice idea you got there Pieshels ;) gj

Read carefully, we will make ~15 maps, each ~1-2 min long.
i have been making my own speedmap called snow valley which is basically ch.3 pt. 1, but it doesnt quite follow your story (I could easily add some sewer pipes and maybe a way into a small town or something) here is a screenie of what i have so far.

Heres an extra pic to see what it would look like if it went with your story, let me know what you think (I know the water color would change to resemble poo :/)

sorry, that part is already taken, everybody wants to make C3... :O
Info about who makes who
Please choose your mappart, that will make everything easier ;)
Well, as I won't have much time now + almost nobody wants/have time to participate (or at least doesn't show it). This project is shutting down. Maybe someday I'll start this over with better ideas and management.
Admins, please lock this.
eh noo :(
