Obsidian Posted December 31, 2022 WELCOME TO THE DOOMWORLD MAXIMUM PROJECT 2023! Description This is a project where anyone can submit a map regardless of their level of Doom mapping skill: you have the entire year to submit your own little pile of linedefs and eventually it'll be showcased alongside all the other submissions in a spiffy little compilation. Whether it's something made specifically for the project or just an old map you have lying around, all maps are welcome in the Doomworld Maximum Project. Rules One map submission per person. Map must be playable in singleplayer and be for the Doom 2 IWAD. You can map for any format or compatibility mode. When submitting your map, please specify what format the map is for. A side note for anyone mapping for Eternity: the presence of PNGs in the compilation has the unfortunate side effect of making Eternity take a very long time to load it up. Just something to bear in mind. 👍 If you're mapping for ZDoom or GZDoom, please do not submit in pk3 format. PLEASE test your maps in the format you made them for: check for things like doors and lifts not having the appropriate tags, as some source ports like ZDoom fix those ingame and can fool you into thinking that they work fine when they don't. No DeHackEd content, but other custom content is allowed: this includes textures, music, DECORATE, whatever you can think of as long as it doesn't replace other Doom 2 resources and isn't too ungainly. Credit your content sources! If you're using custom textures, make sure that they're all named with a 3-letter prefix of your username: something like OBS*****, for example. Resources (not including the map) must not exceed 2mb. If you're using an external texture pack and you're not all that versed in wad compiling, I'm fine with you sending me a message for help with it. No reserving MAP07 or MAP30 slots. No using the secret exit actions. All submissions are welcome: small maps, big maps, slaughter maps, joke maps, anything that isn't purposefully abusive is allowed and encouraged. Go nuts! The deadline is midnight on the 1st of January, 2024 in Yankee Time: here's a countdown if you'd like to keep track. The deadline has come and gone! Watch this space for the first public compilation beta. 👍 And most importantly, have fun! Your time starts now! 58 Share this post Link to post

noob_killer012345678 Posted January 6, 2023 what is the rules when it comes to collabs for a map? If i make a map with a friend... Since we are 2 people, can we submit 2 maps (one per person) even if we both worked on both? 0 Share this post Link to post

Since we are 2 people, can we submit 2 maps (one per person) even if we both worked on both? To be honest I didn't consider the possibility of collabs for this project: I don't think it's ever happened before, haha. Hmmm...it depends on the amount of work each individual did on the map, I think. If the two of you evenly shared the load then I think that should count as a submission from the both of you, but if one mapper did more work than the other then the result can be attributed to them instead. I reckon that's fair. 3 Share this post Link to post
