Congrats for Ixith, the PPM TS Mapper of the 2006!
Subject description: Four spotlights, from the 10 maps spotlighted during the whole year!
Practice makes perfect. That sentence explains how Ixith became one of the best TS mappers of the community in this year. Unlike the previous years that we used to have mapping contests, the Single Player Map Making Contest (SMMC) isn't finished yet, so the only way mappers could have their talent recognized were by the spotlighted maps. Ixith made 4 out of the 10 maps spotlighted in this year, followed by both Aurora196 and The Raven (both with two maps) and Wes.com and Blubb, with one map each.
Three of these maps were made in the end of the year. We had stopped to spotlight maps for a while, due to my university pressure and the C&C3 Community Summit, but yesterday, I've analysed several maps and there were four spotlights. So, here they are:
FS: Once A City:
(By Wes.com)
Once A City is a 4 players temperate map. There are a lot of islands in the map and most of them are accessible by at least two bridges. There is a ruined city, infested by tiberium. This map may require a strong use of carryalls, Hover MLRS, JumpJets, subterranean APCs, Devil Tongues and other air units.
Frozen Fate:
(by Ixith)
Frozen Fate is a 4 players winter map. It's an extremely detailed continent with open bases, few lakes and very purple in game. There is enough tiberium for each base and lots of random cliffs.
Holixe River:
(by Ixith)
Holixe River is a 2 player temperate map. The two bases are splitted by a river and several cannyons. There are 3 bridges to cross the river. Players need to build the base carefully, since the ammount of tiberium in the map isn't high and the space is somewhat limited. The map is very well detailed and includes a kick ass lighting.
Desolated River:
(by Ixith)
Desolated River is a 2 player temperate map, made from Holixe River. It's your first chance to play in a true red zone. The two bases are separated by a river and, unlike the original map, there are lots of resources and tiberium infected environment to build your bases and armies.
Now, with all these amazing maps, are we able to say "Happy New Year"? That will allow you to enjoy TS for a longer time and, yea, happy new year! Keep sending these kick ass maps in 2007, so we'll have even more to spotlight! QUICK_EDIT
congrats to Blubb, Wes.com, The Raven, and Aurora196 on their spotlights to!
i have a total of 17 maps now i think (wait a sec.......holy ztyping hell thats a lot of maps for a single user to make in less than a full year! seeing as iv only been in the community since late march and early april. )
maybe ill make a map pack in the summer which includes all of my maps to that point?
