hi

Question: Are we allowed to test the map with players during build process (online or lan), for balancing purposes?

Thx

Definitely, and I strongly encourage that. Anything you can do to ensure that your map is balanced, solid, and perfect is a good idea. The judges will be judging the map on pretty much everything, from playability to overall looks.

Previously I put up test servers in the US and Europe for people to test on. If you guys would like me to do the same I'll go ahead and do it again. If there is anything I can do to help you make a better map just let me know.

I'll go ahead and add this to the FAQ as well. Thanks.

Hi all! Looking forward to good maps

I second that.

Ye, it would be great if there would be some servers with the maps on them (atleast some duel/ctf and tdm servers (perhaps cpma would be great too)).

Peace

Not a problem. I'll set some servers up as soon as people have alpha/beta maps to test out. Last time we had 1.16n baseq3, 1.32 baseq3, and 1.32 cpma servers available, so I'll aim for that same configuration.

Wo0t. Can't wait.... well actually I can for a bit cuz I'm busy busy but I'll be ready soon.

Are maps allowed to be released as beta's then re-done later on? not saying I will do that, just considering it

EDIT: also are we allowed to make the logo's decals instead of billboards?

Delirium, I answered your questions in the FAQ, but if I missed the point or didn't answer your question accurately or it was incomplete please let me know and I'll clarify.

Yep thats cool, thanks

Glad to see you're onboard!

I edited the last item in the FAQ about the sponsor logo placement to clarify things even more.

The sponsor images, if we can't change them can they actually conform to the power of two rule that 3d engines require?
