Mappingcompetition, a new longjumpmap

By kz`Moxx mapper·
Deadline: 1'st March, 2008

It's been almost 2 years since the last longjumpmap mapping competiton where kz_longjumps was crowned the winner.
The map had many, many players during theese 2 years and the map have become quite popular, and it really is a good map.
It's a bit sad that it doesent have good blocks for making countjumps, that's why we are making this new competition, also we think it's about time to keep the spirit alive for longjumpers, with a new theme. Some of the mappers from the past still remains, I remember back in the old competition which had mappers like radon, waRi, Rinkon etc, alot of theese people are still in the community and will probably compete in this competition aswell, really great to see such enthusiasm among the users.

Rules:
1. You CANT send in a map from the previous contest.
2. You NEED to include 32 player spawns.
3. No timer is required.

4.
Guidelines - the map must include theese lengths:
CJ's: ~240-275
LJ's: ~220-265
HJ's: ~220-250
BJ'S: ~220-250


5. We recommend a jumpheight of 24-25 units.
6. Keep in mind that longjumping requires high fps, so make it look good but keep the fps high.
7. Ofcourse you need to make the Countjump blocks wider so you can make a bigger pre.
8. Remember that the map you send in is FINAL, NO updates are possible to make.
9. Name your map kz_longjumps2_nick/nicks

~ = about

So basicly all you need to do is:
1. Make a map including: CJ's: ~240-275, LJ's: ~220-265, HJ's: ~220-250, BJ'S: ~220-250. Ofcourse with a free design of your choise and any ideas you have in mind, but keep in mind that longjumps require high fps, so dont make too many details.
2. Upload the map, named: kz_longjumps2_nick (ex. www.sendspace.com) and send the download link to kz`Moxx or radon at Quakenet.

The map will probably be called kz_longjumps2.
Also radon is going to sponsor this competition and the winner will get a prize of $50.

So good luck to everybody and we hope to get a good clean fight among mappers for the new ljmap title!
And remember, peace, love and understanding is the key.

Deadline: 1'st March, 2008

yeah, looking forward to see many nice maps :) is it like last time, that we get able to download all the maps after the contest? (hope so) but remove the price thingy. else it will get more and more commercial. the map should been made "with love" and not for "need money" :)

26/01/2008 19:30:00

26/01/2008 19:45:00

Mr.Jumper
26/01/2008 19:54:00

Good idea to add a money price for the winner. So a lot of people take part and hopefully they put all their skills into the map to give us a nice lj2 map.

26/01/2008 20:03:00

26/01/2008 20:04:00

26/01/2008 23:54:00

st0ka, many prrn rooms!

27/01/2008 00:09:00

sorry for double post, but I just realised something.. Moxx wrote: BJ'S: ~220-250 you should probably do more units for BJ, since just some days ago Zocker did a 245.. I would recommend something more like [b]BJ'S: ~220-25[color=#990000]5[/color][/b] - maybe even more.. Thats just what I think... and I guess you probably dont wanna have a new LJ map competition just for more BJ units..

27/01/2008 00:11:00

good luck to all who participates! Maybe we will see thopa's revenge :)

27/01/2008 00:18:00

Nah, my lj map is done, and you'll find it in the forum in like 1 hour. :) It don't have to be the official lj map, it's just fun play. :D

27/01/2008 00:31:00

OMG :( Can´t go to sleep for next one hour :D

27/01/2008 00:37:00

Gl..go rad0n

27/01/2008 00:45:00

It will work to send demos in kz_longjumps and kz_longjumps_2 too ?

27/01/2008 01:02:00

yes

27/01/2008 01:23:00

nice $$

27/01/2008 01:59:00

50 dollars is like 10 euro coooome on :P i think thats why radon is sponsering it not fire or any other american :D

27/01/2008 10:30:00

gogo mappers :P

27/01/2008 10:31:00

Mappers, please think about good color scheme and textures. Less saturated colors, brightly lit rooms(260@kz_longjumps is an example of bad lighting), no vivid colors like magenta/green... Player's health is above all.

27/01/2008 10:38:00

good luck mappers :]

27/01/2008 11:37:00

50$ = 34€ so its still worth it

27/01/2008 11:44:00

YEAH GOOD LUCK 2 ALL MAPERS, thx 4 you efforts, i can`t wait to see the new map. Many good sugestions where already given and i agree with dem all. my thing is : plz make the "ground" in a different color than the grey use in kz_longjumps. imo this color is not nice, something darker would be much better. for the eye it`s easier to react if there`s some contrast between the block and the floor! (And it would look nicer) Plz think also about ALL the movies which were done on your map, when doing LJ-show. It would be uber nice if some detailed textures were supported! Anyway thx again from me (:

27/01/2008 12:20:00

that was the gayest kind of post typing ive ever seen. stop entering each line. my map is allready 25% done :o

27/01/2008 12:55:00

plss wide block for CJ !!!

27/01/2008 13:15:00

I think there should be cj jumps below 240. I think it would be good for those who are just starting to cj and can't jump 240 more then just 1 time out of 20 tries or something. For people like me basically. xD

27/01/2008 13:42:00

gl every1 ! :)

27/01/2008 13:47:00

imo don't use models for higher fps go go mappers :P

27/01/2008 13:56:00

nice :D

27/01/2008 14:51:00

Good luck people :)

27/01/2008 16:50:00

I'm gonna try again :D

27/01/2008 17:50:00

Vols: "50 dollars is like 10 euro coooome on i think thats why radon is sponsering it not fire or any other american" Come on, Im fucking tired of hearing this shit all day all night. BE FUCKING HAPPY THAT THERE EVEN IS A PRICE

27/01/2008 17:58:00

good luck, Would like to see a nice longjump map :)

27/01/2008 20:11:00

paying here paying there

27/01/2008 22:19:00

is it possible that you could make the bunnyhops as low as 215? <-- noob hopper

27/01/2008 22:35:00

[color=#0000ff]Gj[/color]

27/01/2008 23:17:00

yes clair.. ~220 about 220..

27/01/2008 23:18:00

also make ljs as low as 210... its really nice for super beginners/shooters, and why make separate sections for cjs/ljs? just make 210-275 ljs... :D

27/01/2008 23:25:00

yeah! very wide blocks for cjs/ljs ! and its better to start at 210 for heavy weapons lj or something! and some players need wide block for ljs too (me 4 example :P)

28/01/2008 00:24:00

add a rule, thet ground entery of lj block will be "func_wall", so ljstats will be absolutely 100% currect, plz.

28/01/2008 04:41:00

o(∩_∩)o... :D

29/01/2008 04:19:00

Good Luck All. [color=#00ff33]:o[/color]

02/02/2008 20:47:00

i think xj crew should chose 3 maps, then post them for us to vote the best :d that would be nice

03/02/2008 20:30:00

then people would probebly vote for the person they like the most.

21/03/2008 02:31:00

GJ :D
