Gentlemen. This has lasted long enough. I take part of the blame due to not establishing enough ground rules (forgive me, this is my first experience starting such a thing ever). And yes, this is supposed to be a truly fun project, and not the raging discussion I've seen in the last few days. I feel @@MoonDog and @@Pande have a point where it comes to brushwork (detail vs structural) layout, etc. On the other hand, I completely understand @@MUG being extremely proud of what he made, as it looks remarkably cool. When @@MoonDog said the map was a collaborative project, he was right. As the OP stated, "4.Construction: We try to not remove others' work, just improve upon it, although this sometimes does require removal, depending on the situation." To be sure, others DO have every right to improve upon each other's work. If they find that the scale is too small for normal play, then they have every right to change it. In addition, one can't just recall their own parts, especially not when you're the first mapper and others use your part to start off from. However, again, I love this area, and completely sympathize. You're more than free to use your own part on a smaller scale in an upcoming map, and you can be sure I'm going to play it. Right now, as apparently both moondog and mug called it quits, we have a situation on our hands. It might just be a good idea to follow Pande's suggestion and start over, although we can surely use parts from the current construction, but only after we've established more ground rules and specific area layouts before starting construction, although I would require active help concerning the specificity of such a thing. Again, I may be blamed for not realizing this before, but this arguing has lasted long enough. I will put the scheduled passing around on hold for now, until we have (amongst ourselves) reached a definitive decision on this. Opinions here (please review the map in its current state first at http://www.mediafire.com/?2nu3vyyw38xu23w)

Agreed.

Again, sorry for not replying sooner, RL is truly being a pain at the moment. From what I've first heard from Pande, and now moondog, the issues are more serious than I initially thought. Moondog, could you also send over your current version? I'd like to have the most up to date one, although delta already sent me his a while ago. I suppose a call has to be made. But before I do so (at least, I suppose I'd be the one having to do so since I started it all..) I would like to hear your (that is, specifically @@Pande and @@MoonDog and @@Szico VII) opinion of the extent to which we'd be able to salvage/use at least parts of the map were we to absolutely start over with a pre-conceived layout and a clearer goal to work towards. Please be as direct and honest as you can, as this is in no way a criticism towards other mappers personally, and shouldn't be interpreted as such.

@Szico VII- March 25th-March 31st I suppose you mean 24th of april, then? Also, haven't had time to check out the files delta sent me yet. Exams are (and will be) killing me for several more weeks. Looking good though! I love the pattern on the inside of the elevator door!

Sorry guys, I only just got back from a short trip to Denmark which prevented me from checking the topic. I see Pande has raised an important issue that needs addressing. @@Delta_135 can you upload the current map+textures etc. to somewhere so I (and the other mappers involved) can have a look as to the seriousness of the problem?

We DEMAND pictures

No worries, life tends to do that sometimes I'll see if I can get you an extra turn somewhere if you feel like it?

Did you get the map yet? @@MagSul?

@@TwinHits, please prepare to transport the map. I got a pm from @@Delta_135 saying he's experiencing some internet connection issues and cannot take the map after you. I know @@MagSul was all about having his turn soon,so I switched him and Delta around. Main post updated. I know the time period for switching them around is really short (since this concerns the following mapper) but due to delta's issues, I had no other choice. @@MagSul, can you confirm you have time next week?

Perhaps we can think with you, if you show us the thing you're thinking about with some annotated screenshots?

Any updates, @@TwinHits?

Thanks for all your hard work (and awesome screenshots). I hope @@TwinHits continues in the same tradition (screenshots included)

Please don't forget to zip the file up and send it to Twinhits on the 24th! Perhaps you guys need to exchange email addresses by pm (can't remember if twinhits posted his email in this topic or not).
