Project R.A.W.R. [Mappack]

[Lobsters]

Okay this is a project I hope will take off. I will be in charge of it, unless some usurper comes along. What you may ask is Project R.A.W.R? Well, I simply made an acronym out of rawr. It totally makes no sense. Righteous Assualt Walrus Recon. Yeah it is quite random.

The Modes that are the focus of R.A.W.R  

-Deathmatch/LMS

-Capture the Flag (Keep One-Flag in mind as well)

-Possession

-Duel




Power Weapons should be harder to get.
 Now don't necessarily make it bait for a death trap. If you do make it a trap awesome. And I mean a challenge. Like say you have to get rush coil to get to a platform that you need to use item 1 to get to the next. Then use beat over a pit to reach the darn thing. With teleporter or exit unit nearby so they can get out. Wouldn't that be cruel all that work just to get stuck. This is type of crazyness is for weapons like Time Stopper and Gravity Hold and Possibly Junk Shield if it gets changed again if an update happens soon.


I will also keep a certain number of slots for maps for each mode. I haven't decided how many for each yet. Don't make a map with classes in mind. Hell, I don't think that is possible to make a map with classes in mind. What are you going to do? Make anti-drill man digging floors? Well with the right amount scripting it might be possible, but I wouldn't waste my time on that for R.A.W.R

Okay the fun part my restrictions.

(click to show/hide)

-32 starts for the maps.

-NO S.Wheel in the CTF maps. Unless you do crazy stuff to get it.

-Try to keep the brightness 255 not mandatory but reccommended. Use Black if you change the brightness to really dark, most textures look odd in the dark.

-No Sexual related names in the maps or map design. If you can make a map look like a naked man or woman. Good for you, just don't do it here.

-Please don't make it full of death traps. I will accept traps but not a map that is just a pain because of it.

-Music should sound 8-bit. Try not to use music in other maps. Although if you do use that 8-bit version of "Take on Me" Awesome! I won't hassle you. Just because this is a megaman fan game doesn't mean you should go and find 8-bit other MM Series tunes in 8-bit.  If you can make it in Wario Ware DIY with 8-bit instruments coolio, but don't submit that stuff here.

-I love randomness. So random names are awesome. Something like Extreme Hardcore Blowtorch would be cool. Something like Granny Panty Meltdown Crisis not so much. The more it sounds like a random death hardcore whatever genre band you can only find on Youtube the better. Random Names Encouraged. But generic sounding stuff like Sewer Fight is okay too.

- No secret slandering of other community members. Example : Lobsters is such a jerk!
Well you could make fun of yourself in your own map but unless you have self-esteem conditions, I'd so No then.

-Yashichi placement is optional.

-No Custom Weapons at all.
                         
-Custom Textures is cool with me.

 
-Try not to make maps huge or cramped. When I think cramped I think of Cut Man and Yamato and Hard man (With a lot of people). When I think Huge I think Halo 3 Sandtrap (Huge regadless of how many people).

-Homage Maps are cool but can be kinda meh. Example: I want to make the Mansion from Resident Evil 1 or the village at the beginning of RE 4. If you go for it, I won't stop you.

-No barrier weapons in Possession Maps. Yeah Skull Barrier Guy with the C. Board not cool. That includes scorch wheel as well. No pits as well. Although playing possession on Burst Man is a blast. :) Well V2c negates teh pit thing, but people can kinda abuse that.

And That is all I can think of at the moment. And pardon my possible spelling mistakes and  grammar. Gah, that was long.

Got a map PM it to me with a dl link. And I will be putting maps I make into this too. I might have to consult you guys to see if it gets in just to be fair. Haha

-Capture the Flag (Keep One-Flag in mind as well)

Dont make CTF maps. Unless you dont want them to be played.

[Mendez]

Good luck broski! If this projects take longer than a month, I MAY post a map. Otherwise, just try to make as many maps as you can, and playtest often!
As Red once told me, map with your heart and don't be afraid to try new things or fuck with over 1000 textures for an hour straight.
Jack, no one plays your maps because they're too large and complex. We've been over this countless times, man. And I swear I'll get a new version of 07 someday. Just let me finish AMP and I'll revamp that project so much, It'll start getting some views.

[Jc494]

It'll start getting some views.

Doubt it.

[WheelieCarbonate]

I may actually be able to contribute.
Just need more mapping practice.

[Jennifer]

I'd help if my computer wasn't being a complete ass to me right now.

I'm going to throw this out there. Mix and match packs don't work. They just don't. When I was making both CTF maps and DM maps for my I-Pack, guess which maps never got played? The CTF Maps were rarely ever touched. Most people didn't even know they existed.

While you can attempt to try this, just understand, it is very likely the final product is just going to be played for one specific mode. Most likely Deathmatch.

[Korby]

Except replace Deatmatch with Rage Roboenza.

When you say "no rickroll stuff," do you mean no songs that I'd likely include in a restaurant map?

[Alucard]

Similar to Korby's question here, but a bit different...

If someone makes a Kirby-themed map, would it be alright to use Gourmet Race as a theme? I mean, it is meme-related (cough THIS VIDEO CONTAINS) but it's also an official theme.

Before CTF10 Was Added, Saviorswords servers were almost always I or X Ctf

[Lobsters]

Okay I axed out the meme rule. Go ahead and use the rick roll. I just didn't want to maps to be filled with Chuck Norris Jokes. Should have clarified on that.

I am thinking of roughly 25 maps in total for this. Five for each mode on the list(DM, CTF, Possession, and Duel) An additional five maps for the joke map section. I might bump it up to thirty for me to make a map in each mode, plus a joke map. So I don't take up slot space.

So I'll try my best to organize this. And happy mapping, although it can be such a pain. And remember to check the restrictions/rules in the first post.

Also if you made maps that got rejected by other projects please don't recycle them to me. Wow, my typing style is quite repetitive.

[Mr. Sean Nelson]

Speaking of....

Why doesn't CMM just add new CTF maps to the newest versions of MM8BDM since they're so uncommon?

[Shade Guy]

Well, first people will have to submit maps CMM deems worthy of being in the official MM8BDM.

[Jc494]

Bingo. I dont think any of my maps are worthy.

[Lobsters]

Well you do not if they aren't worthy unless you try. Anyways I the I am sticking to the my last post's edit.
