Picture Mapping Contest @ CStrike.de

Posted by Fluke at 17:59 22/3/2002.

Gunslinger (cstrike.de) sends word that they've started another of their mapping contests:

"This time the goal is not to create a "real" map, rather an artistic impression. The mappers are given three themes (two pictures, one scene from a book). They are supposed to create a map which resembles this scene in some way or another. Not the maps themselves are rated, but screenshots taken from them. Things like r_speeds (polygon counts) are not relevant this time.

Imagination and the visual result are the goal - hence "Picture Mapping". This is quite unique and we will be eager to see what can be done with the old engine. (For mappers who still can't help creating a real, playable map from one of these themes, there will be a special award for the best playable map as well)"

The contest started today and will last three weeks (up to 11.04.02). Exact rules, the themes, message boards and relevant links can be found here.
