Quake3World

Hi there,

i need some mappers who have time to make me a map or two?

The Link to my mod is here:
http://www.q3geoball.quakeit.de/

I try to help, too with the levelchange and breakables.

I hope someone have some time for that?
some examples i will give in the forum.
Screens also there.
Make the ball rolling!

thx for reading

There's actually very little info on your site. I doubt many people have heard about this project, so you should maybe add a small "about"-section to your page that describes what geoball is so people (and mappers ;-) ) can decide whether they're interested.

Some thing like "Geoballs is a q3 mod where you have to <?> by doing <?>..."

After looking at the site I have no clue what it's all about - most likely I have to prevent a ball from falling off into the void and make it cross a track as fast as possible. Maybe solve riddles, too? But that's more or less speculation based on a screenshot in the "maps"-thread on the forums.

Just downloaded it and I'll try it later, so there's no need to explain it to me / others in this thread, but putting a small explanation on your site will increase your chances of finding willing mappers I think.

EDIT:
I just started it, but didn't find a map to play. RTFM-file is rather short.

Is there already a finished map for this mod (and how do I start it)? If so, you should mabe offer the .map-file so mappers have an example to start with. Wouldn't hurt to have at least one map ready so mappers know what they're supposed to do.

I like it btw, it's funny to roll around with that ball and one can control it (and the camera) very good. Reminds me of a linux game I played many months ago.

Thx for that, i will do this tonight!

i give the recall here then







sometime i feel my age, maybe i am to old :icon23:

I really have to second what fux said. It looks quite promising but this is just based on guessing what the mod is. Give the world more information.

Oh und willkommen

Hrhr...

i have updated a bit. you can find now the help/about!

Also i do update the forum with usefull infos for mapping and editing etc.


my english will be better someday... :icon32:

I left a few remarks/suggestions at your forum. The rest should maybe be discussed over there.

Neverball, I wager? :icon26:

you cannot control the ball direct in neverball. You must tickle the planes.

i have neverball, looks good, but the control is not so good i think!?

Indeed. :icon31:

There's another cool linux game that's similar. It's 2D however and it combines controlling a marble with a "Memory"-style task: you have to find bricks with the same color (they reveal their color for a short time after you touched them) and touch them without touching a brick of another color in between.

Don't know the name of that one and my laptop where it is installed broke yesterday. It's not installed on this box.

EDIT: the game is called Enigma.

The version is updated the ball is now rolling on steep planes.

I need still maps plz.

I saw this announced at PQ today...it's pretty interesting. Your right though...it does need some maps, as the ones you have are too quake looking texture-wise(or ugly) over what the mod needs as far as a ball-type theme.

Neat idea though.

Yepp, i will spend the next time to make textures like in marble madness.

So a little comic style.

I am not the creative man

but i do what i can do...

Damn, I thought for a second it was a Qpong style mod. Was looking forward to crushing people with giant metal balls

Although this looks interesting too.

With the mention of Marble Madness, I can't help but think the Lego texture set would really nice for this: http://berneyboy.planetquake.gamespy.com/textures.htm

I will told this on my website, that tgey can map with that,
thx,

Looks like there are not going much in q3 modding these days.

i have not much resonanz

looks good, or!?

Pipes all over there :icon25:

@dzjepp: heh, nah. Coded from scratch by some Super Monkey Ball addict.

@landix: looking good indeed. Your mod seems to have promise. Keep it up!

Looks pretty good! Great job so far, can't wait to see the finished product... or a beta even! You should post another vid once you work with a different texture set, that lego one does look like it'll be good.
