This post is really a listing for the Map-Center's ..::LvLworld's Redux Jam
The point of this mapping comp is not to make a fantastic, super, unique layout, but to art the f*ck out of an existing, older release.
It is about taking a raw early layout and seeing what can be done with it visually. The intent is a show of mapping talent and artistic skill.
The rules are simple: Pick a map, remake it, but keep the raw layout. Obviously, fix issues as well.
The suggested maps that are up for redux are below, but we are open to other suggestions so long as the map was originally released before 2004 and has a rawness to it:
Edit (10th July) Added leilei's suggestion for Battle zone.
lvlworld.com/media/id:540
lvlworld.com/media/id:463 a GOAT map but could have a visual refresh, given this is a pre-TeamArena terrain map before all the tricks were figured out
lvlworld.com/review/id:446
lvlworld.com/media/id:794 TACO WAGON
lvlworld.com/media/id:646
lvlworld.com/review/id:969 could also be expanded to also tribute Kyle Busch
lvlworld.com/review/id:157 PKA's version sucks, someone could do much better than both of these. Dakyne's one of my favorite Quake maps because of the dark blue/gray/lavaorange/water mix (with ambience and lightning), and none of the Quake3 remakes ever scratched that itch.
Edited 5.93 hours after the original posting.
Darkayne would be really interesting to see re-worked. I was trying to stick to original maps, but yes, a good version of this map would be awesome.
Battle zone by Quid - A great choice! Has everything. Good layout, but issues that could be fixed with a rebuild. Adding this one to the mix.
I've barely used Trenchbroom so I may take a stab at this but no promises.
