Grand Campaign Competition!
Subject description: Tiberian Sun / Firestorm Singleplayer Mapping Competition
It's been a very long time since a Tiberian Sun mapping competition, and Ixith and I where discussing it yesterday so I feel its a good idea to start up a new one quite similar to the C.C.C but for Tiberian Sun. This mapping competition will be about Single-player mapping rather than Multi-player mapping as there are very few single-player mappers in the community (Myself being one of them).
There was an S.M.M.C A Long time a go which never took place, and I feel that it was a shame that it never took place (As I wanted to enter it), but non-the-less, I feel being as the C.C.C went smoothly, I'll host another mapping competition.
Rules:
1 - Only One map per entrant
2 - Any map entered by the creator must be larger than 85 x 85 otherwise their map will be marked as void and will not be judged in the competition.
3 - The entries must be completely new. No re-makes of maps, no copy and pasted terrain from any other maps.
4 - If you post any previews of your maps anywhere before the competition deadline, you will be disqualified and your map will be marked as void and will not be judged in the competition.
5 - Once submitted, entries cannot be changed, unless the version submitted is clearly at incomplete
6 - Entries must be submitted to Aro (Me) by the December 8th(00:00GMT)
7 - Terrain expansions of any kind are NOT allowed.
8 - The Map you submit can be for either Normal Tiberian sun or it can use Firestorm terrain, its your choice.
9 - SINGLE PLAYER MAPS ONLY!
10 - More than one person can work as a team effort on one map but a deduction will be made from the overall score of that map.
11 - Modified Tutorial.ini's are allowed and recommended.
Judging:
Judging will be done by Aro (Me), Ixith, Morpher and blubb.
- Detail work and LAT placement.
- Map layout
- Map Lighting
- General Game play on your submission
- Trigger work
Will be out of 100 points, based on the criteria listed just above.
20 points for Detail
20 points for Layout
20 points for Lighting
20 points for Game play
20 points for Triggers.
Once you feel you've completed a submission, send it to Aro (Me) Via Private Message (PM) only, not via I.M Client.
Good luck entrants! Last edited by Aro on Tue Nov 25, 2008 9:38 pm; edited 8 times in total QUICK_EDIT
I Do have a lot of free time but I'm not going to go over every map to check them for copy and pasted terrain.
One month should be enough time but If not, I'll extend the deadline like in the C.C.C. QUICK_EDIT

Wow, all he had to do was ask, in a public forum? If I was to ask, would you have said yes??? _________________ Destroy to create. All for the hunt to dominate!
Alright then Mr. Bolt. If you'd of just asked to be a judge I'd of said no, I'd have to of seen your judging and constructive criticism giving capabilities before I'd let you join up as a judge. QUICK_EDIT
Good to see you came up with a decent name for it Aro. lol
Also glad to see that Blubb has been added to a judging spot and think that Morpher would do well too. _________________ Kalistia Crestland (2)

Hmm, maybe I will enter though... I just need to see if I have some free time to get back my trigger experience Also a good time to finish that SP map I began working on a few months ago... QUICK_EDIT
I recommend having the author of each map unknown to the judges. A person should be sent every map, who in turn sends the maps with the author unknown to the judges. When the maps are judged, the authors will be known. This is to prevent ANY biased ratings (No, I'm not saying that I'm not trusting the judges, but you never know, and besides, it feels safer!).
I might join... I'm already starting work on a single player map that I thought up on my own, it's very empty still, so I'm going to work on it, and possibly submit it if I finish it before the deadline. I know my map is going to be good, for me atleast, since I know it'll be of my design Anywho, I might join if I finish it in time, depending on my work schedual, and school work... QUICK_EDIT
i felt the sudden need to bump this topic and remind everyone that the deadline is still set for November 2nd. which is approximately 3 weeks from now.
So keep up the mapping and make sure those triggers work as they will be critical to your SP map! _________________ Kalistia Crestland (2)

If any of you need an extended deadline don't hesitate to let me know. I Know Crimsonum so he'll more than likely need an extended deadline, anyone else think that they wont be able to finish on time? QUICK_EDIT
