[Project] Psychosis - Enrolling Volunteers

Snarboo · Post by **Snarboo** » Sat Jul 14, 2007 9:46 pm

I'm not going to aim for something epic. I think I've changed my mind about my map's theme, too. I won't spoil it, since there's a good chance it will never exist. :/

@Xutawoo: Very interesting. I'd like to see this refined and expanded.

@KeksDose: Yes.

@Captain Ventris: Do you mean you cannot map or cannot map well?

I'll state one thing one more time. Just because you can't make maps super-detailed and pretty like in KDiZD doesn't mean you can't map! In fact, this project could be considered the opposite of KDiZD; KDiZD's maps make sense, these don't (unless you're a very predictable person). If the inside of your mind is highly detailed, make your map highly detailed. Just reflect yourself in your map.

Okay, a list of tentative volunteers:

Serious Cacodemon
Snarboo
Sniper Joe
Bouncy

Anyone is free to join.

what if your mind is highly detailed but you can't make details in a map well at all? x_x;

this is why I need somebody of Tormentor/KDIZD quality. D:

that, and i'm not sure I can contribute a map. I'd like to, but I got a very busy schedule, and my free time is currently going to the M&M Monsters project.

Thanks. I really enjoyed making and testing this map and my map.

OK, that's good. I might join when I'm done with my 1% piece of work for UTNT, as long I don't get pwned by Real Life again. (lol, the codes in the brackets say "B U I" (actually it should say B U Y, but who cares lol) xD Maybe because I want a new graphic card? P=)

I'd love to try this project, but my mind gets very tired when I am hot. My computer room has no air conditioning and it's the middle of the summer!(In fact, my thermometer next to my computer reads 117

(Fahrenheit, not Celsius

)) Maybe I can try during the night, when it isn't as hot.

Can't map well. I've only ever tried it a couple times, to mediocre results. I just don't really like it.

I'm currently working on some custom textures that should reveal the theme for my map. Hopefully I'll have a few to post here soon. :)

I don't quite get the theme on this psychosys thing, but since it seems that it doesn't need professional mappers, I think I'll join. My mind itselg is a bit nuts (in the good way, luckily) but maybe I'll ned a guideline or tow more to get the map done the way the poject requires it...

Your theme can be anything that reflects your mind or imagination. Do you have a cool design for a comic book character? Why not make a level about him! Or why not rewrite Doom history and have it take place in the 30's? And those are just a few examples off the top of my head.

Edit:
Here's an example of some of the textures I'm working on for my map:

And yes, the low def look is intentional. :)

Original post updated.

I would very much like to make a map for this. The idea of a map set in your own mind is clever.

I also see the original creator of the idea is exited.

[EDIT] Oh, are custom monsters/weapons just for our map allowed? Because that would be pretty nice.

By the way, I just thought I'd throw this out there for anybody to know and use however they will.

"Psychosis" is actually a type of crippling social disorder. For some stupid reason I thought it was a noun meaning "mind".

Yeah. Just thought I'd let you know.

As long as it's not like "OMG TEN MEGABYTES FOR ONE ATTACK FRAME!"
