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.
-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
