Hiya!

So good news and bad news. Good news is we're done! Bad news is I work all week so compiling is gonna take a bit longer than I was hoping. I'm hoping to get it sometime this week, but that can range as early as late tonight to like Friday. I have no idea ;-;

However, there is something I want to say about judging! Because we actually have judges now! Why did this change?
Because a lot of people said they were going to make maps so they couldn't judge but then they didn't make maps so we can actually have judges now. And besides, a good chunk of you wanted them so here we are.

Judging panel is myself (FRAUD), good ole' King Dumb, and we got CutmanMike as the last judge! WHOAAAAAAAA
So judging will run the same as F2M when we start. Community still votes for what they like, ranking them all, judges do that, the stuff is put together and we have our winners! And runner ups go to whoever gets top in the separate categories!

So I'll hopefully have a WAD for all of you sometime this week to actually play some CTF!
See you then!

Well that was a lot faster than I thought it would be. Mostly because Korby offered to compile the pack in my stead so HERE WE ARE

We got 10 spicy maps lined up for you, and considering this is CTF, I'd say that's a good number.

And without further ado, a list of our contestants!

TMHCTF01 - Thunderono
TMHCTF02 - LlamaHombre
TMHCTF03 - Magnet Dood
TMHCTF04 - Mendez
TMHCTF05 - Caprice
TMHCTF06 - Korby
TMHCTF07 - Darkseed
TMHCTF08 - Jack Corvus
TMHCTF09 - ForteGigasGospel
TMHCTF10 - Duora Super Gyro

A server should be up shortly to play these sick maps, and who knows it might change to one flag ctf later on. If people want to. Playtime will go until Sunday, August 28th at 6:00 PM EST. A strange time but it's longer than usual and I know I can't update with results at midnight like usual. So for community votes, just PM me what you'd rank all the maps and nothing else. It's very important that every map is ranked with no ties. If you don't go by that guideline your vote will not count in the final tally.

I hope you all enjoy!

I guess I was too late.

As a note because I've seen a few people run into this issue, this pack uses a script cooked up by Lego that allows for custom boss music in CTF maps.
If you're testing them offline, make sure to set your point limit to at least 2 to hear the proper stage songs.

You know you messed up somewhere when it takes 9 minutes just for one person to score a point on your map.
Fucking shit, I really screwed the pooch with that gimmick. My bad, good luck to the rest of the competitors.

Gospel is wrong, Thunder's map has three paths
on the interior side path, take the upper route to cut through the side via a 3D Floor bridge

also a list of map names or screenshots or something would help out a lot
I don't immediately connect these maps to their authors
being able to go "hey this is that pirate map" or "hey this is the waterway" would make putting in votes a lot easier than digging through mapcodes offline

Ok yea my bad, never even noticed this path, my bad.

The reason I said that was because I was supposed to have custom props on my map. Gumball finished two props for me (Metall K1000 and Rembakun) that I was going to put in, but I ran into internet issues over here at college and I wasn't able to finish it myself.

Whatever. As long as the base map is all right, I shouldn't complain. Once I finally get my files I'll probably upload a new version that has the props in there.

By request, I have compiled a list of the maps complete with screenshots, mapnames, mapcodes, and mappers.

I can say without a doubt this is a massive improvement in quality since the first CTF competition (a long time ago). I can pretty much see any of these making their way into core. I am slightly torn between a couple of maps to give my votes to. Hopefully more play testing happens (one flag ctf would be cool because that mode is very aggressive) and I can pin down which ones get my star of approval!

Was brought to my attention I once again forgot to put impassible flags on windows this time in Blue base, but since the Line Horizon walls are right outside the window there is no escaping the map this time around. This was caused because the Red Base is the northern end of the map and everything was made on that side first and copied down to make blue base, the windows were added in after the layout of the flag rooms were done and I forgot that the options weren't copied over due to the linedefs already existing before the copy.
Also all the western side pipes in the non-playable areas are misaligned. This is due to being 3D floors and I must not have double checked to make sure I didn't need to make new ones or something, since I thought I did, also I made the north east pipe area first and copied it over to the western side, then copied both north ones into the south side. But this one doesn't effect any game play at all thankfully.
All easy fixes, and the kinda stuff that can end up slipping by.

I'd love to vote but I haven't managed to catch a single person playing these maps since they came out

what gives

CutmanMike · « **Reply #58 on:** August 19, 2016, 10:04:33 PM »

Maybe we can arrange a weekend ctf time to all jump in?

Mendez · « **Reply #59 on:** August 20, 2016, 01:08:57 AM »

I have this issue too, but I blame that more on League binges than anything else. I'd be fine meeting to play tomorrow at around 11 AM pacific, which is equal to 2 PM eastern and 7 PM British time. That way, everyone from NA and EU (and UK) can get together to play for at least a couple of hours.
