Hi guys! As mappers, I thought you might be interested to see that Torn Banner (a fellow little studio that Unknown Worlds has worked closely with in the past) is running a pretty snazzy mapping contest: http://www.tornbanner.com/contest/

Many of you no doubt have the skills to totally blitz that!

    Just if UDK will be as convenient as Spark :(

    My personal experience, Spark is much easier for mapping than UDK, although UDK is more powerful. Could be fun, but there are some very experienced and very good UDK mappers out there already, who would probably have a huge advantage on any people new to the kit.

    Since it would be using the Chivalry SDK I'd say it would be easier in terms of mapping (Barring custom content of course) than using just the UDK itself as you would have access to the standard assets for the game. If I had kept up with my UDK knowledge and didn't have other fish to fry I might have entered just for the fun of it. Still, gives me a good excuse to pick up Chivalry in the future.

    Good luck to anybody who does decide to go for this though!

    Whoa! Those are some extremely tight time frames. If only I could just drop everything I was doing now and start making a map for the next 4 months.

    Says in the fine print that it is possible to enter as a team! Anyone up for it? If it's allowed to use standard assets from the game I think 2-3 people could do this pretty good within the given timeframe!:)

    I'll have you know Hugh... we map for arts sake and the love of the game! That said, there were rumors of a mod going standalone! Maybe once/if that gets revealed we could see a contest like this held for that project? Everyone knows skulks with shotguns maps are a lot smaller and easier to make than vanilla NS2 ;)

    SWS?? Dream on Howser, it is most definitely GorgeCraft which is going Standalone, why do you think it wasn't included in the showreel? To keep everyone guessing of course ;)
