Changes made to the first post.

Don't forget, once your maps are complete PM me with the download link for them and I'll release all the links in a post on or just after the 4th.

There have been a few but currently there are still 21 potential maps, that should be enough to keep you guys playing something new everyday for a few weeks. You lucky so and so's! :)

Update: I'm really craming this map, I just got a job 3 days a week, and I'm going on a campout soon. However I hope to still finish by the deadline. there isn't much to do, just localize some stuborn stuff, and make sure all the modes work as they should ETC.

May have to dropout too, but not yet.

How many maps are going to be in the pack?

It depends upon the sizes of the winning maps. Obviously if all maps submitted are the maximum allowable size then there will be less of them in the mappack. If submitted maps are smaller than the max then more can be crammed in. So in answer to you question, it depends! :wink: :D

About map sizes;

Just to clarify, 128 MB in a .RAR or .ZIP file or 128 MB unzipped?

I did a test compression and I think it was around 30-40MB. So, I guess thats a good thing! I should be done soon.

Great, i have just found that i have my year 10 exams on the week of the 4th, i doubt i will be able to enter now. Is there likely to be another mappack anytime soon, if so when?

yep we are planning another one for 2010! :D

Seriously though no, there won't be another one for a while, however if you don't complete in time for the comp then you'll still be able to release it to the community when you do finish.

I am gravely sad to say, that I must drop out of the competition. Due to me getting sick, I will not have the time, nor the energy to complete my map on time.
I will however continue work on my map, and release it soon.

I regret to say this but I may have to drop out. My computer has been down for two weeks and is finally up-and-running again. I saved the source files and am working as fast as possible. I say a 70% chance I enter.
