Who wants to be paired up with me :P?
What the New Contest Entries Section.....click it and you'll find out
Whats the last date for entering then?
- The download link for your map can be posted to the first post of your WIP topic at any time before the deadline. Again, the deadline is November 22nd, 2015 @ Midnight PST). If your topic has an "Edited at" date of later than the contest deadline time, your entry will not be counted.
If anyone needs ideas the Left 4 Dead games had some fun last stand areas, the ones that stand out to me are the roof of Mercy Hospital, the boathouse on the riverbank of Death Toll, the carnival and roller-coaster sections of Dark Carnival.
Really any place that you could put helpful traps, ramps, escape hatches, areas to jump from to safety. Remember, this is your world that you are designing, be as creative and brutal as you want to be; the zombies should be the ones who are afraid of attacking you here.

We ask that you vote based on the quality of the map and how it follows the theme of the contest, not based on the popularity of the map/mapper or any professional/personal affiliation you have with them.

Is there a cut-off date for posting a WIP? I'd like to take the weekend to brainstorm and come up with an idea.There is no entry deadline, you just have to finish the map before the due date and post regular updates of your progress to prove you didnt start the map before the contest began.
Can I release the Zombie Campaign mod (http://ugx-mods.com/forum/index.php?topic=3010.msg30278) I was working on and people can use that to make a map for without having to worry about scripting at all? It isn't a "map" that has been previously worked on, so not sure if people can use other "mods" that have been started prior to the contest.I don't see why not, UGX Mod is allowed so really any mod is allowed.
Note: Zombie Campaign isn't done, but my free time is coming back now with my schedule at work, so I'll have time and motivation to get it working at a good state well before November. In meantime I can directly help anyone using it while working on the mod. I won't accept any prizes since I'm not interested in that, goes all to the mappers.
i started my map like 2 weeks ago can i still enter?
No, since it was already started
am i allowed to do multiple different areas to hold out? ex. you get teleported to a new area every 5 or 10 rounds.If there is like a progression in the map of you eventually making your way to a final last stand/survival area then that is fine but if you are just teleporting to a new area every few rounds that doesn't really fit the theme.
I think it would be really cool to see a map where you start of with some very basic weaponry at your disposal and you have to protect your fort and then every few minutes there is a break in the action with a timer counting down until the next wave comes (Killing Floor). After every few waves more guns & perks become available to purchase, so it's like you are barely surviving, just praying that you can make it to the next break in the action hoping that it unlocks something good.How did you know? I'm doing something alot like that.
I think that a system like this could give players a real feeling of progression and accomplishment.
i started my map like 2 weeks ago can i still enter?Not with the map you started 2 weeks ago, no. You can still enter just not with that map.
how can you edit your topic or you have to make a new one?(for the WIP to update peeps)You have to have more than 20 posts in order to edit your own replies. You can request for a moderator to edit your topic by using the Report to Moderator button on the first post of the topic. Sorry for the inconvenience but this is to control spam from people who create new accounts to harass other people on the site.

if we use music on this maps, it must be youtube safe? or we can add whatever we want?If you don't use Youtube safe music you should at least make it very clear in the map that YouTubers need to mute the music channel for your map. But you can use whatever music you want, this isnt a youtube competition.
AWSOME, HOPE FOR SOME REALLY GOOD MAPS. GOOD LUCK ALL YOU WITH MAPSKILLZ ... AND YES IM SHOUTINGWHY ARE WE SHOUTING?
great so i (being my hasty idiot self) posted a wip for my map that has been in progress for about 2months. it has been disqualified. yes i know jumped the gun a little bit there :poker: . and im fine with people tellign me the rules and such but when they go too my youtube channel, use my email, private message me hatemail on steam. that is when the line is crossed. they send me paragraph long messages. about me being a tryhard prick and such. but one of them i'm guessing doxed me got my home address. and i know he has it cause he sent it too me in a pm on steam. if i did something wrong i'm sorry but this is bullshit. they also remove their messages from youtube within an hour of posting. this is bullshit and fuck this crap.We have a very strict policy about revealing people's personal information here on UGX:
10. You will never threaten another site members' personal property, family, or life.Unfortunately when this type of behavior happens outside of the confines of this website, it is out of our control/jurisdiction/responsibility.
This includes disclosing personal information such as IP Addresses, home addresses, names, phone numbers, DDOS attacks, etc. Threatening or committing any of these actions via private message or otherwise will result in a immediate permanent ban from the site. This behavior is completely unacceptable and in most cases illegal.
not to be rude but you do know what doxxing is rightYou do know that someone can't just magically find your address if it's not public information right?
to be able to make a gmail account it is required to give your street address as does steam.I never had to for my steam and Gmail :P
to be able to make a gmail account it is required to give your street address as does steam. but either way the guy is an asshole. and you want to know what he wanted in return the deletion of my map. fuck that i called my bank and informed them of my card number being stolen. so they got me a new number and put my old number on a quarantine. if anybody uses my card it will get an exact gps location of their current position and if they are on a pc or cellphone it will track it as long it is in service. so i think i'm good there.I've never had to give my address for anything except PayPal, shipping information, and domain name registration. Gmail does not require an address and neither does steam.

They will tell the police whatever they know, but not you
Must have at least one UGX-Mods logo and one ZomMods logo in a visible place in the map. Maps which do not make an attempt to follow this rule will be disqualified.
hmmm i didn't know that. i was just quoting what the guy at my bank said, and he said that the card that was attempted to be used, they would be informed. The rest was me glorifying it a bit.(i apologise) i got my card swapped just in case. I apologise if this all sounds fraudulent, but it did happen. at the time of typing i was panicked and pissed off. i guess swapping my cards was a little overboard. but in the end i it was a little annoying. as it turns out the guy sending me messages was my friend yianne. (super dickish prick friend but a friend either way) as you can guess the way he got my address and such was through well coming to my house.

Now we're talking about bank cards? What? I'm honestly starting to doubt this is even real, it sounds like you're making it up. Regardless we don't need to hear any more about the situation because it's not our responsibility and there's nothing we can do to help you. This topic is for discussing questions regarding the map contest, not you being doxed.
This is not stated in the rules, but I'm assuming we can post videos of our contest maps and not get disqualified.That was only the YAW contest because it would affect their views on the videos. You're free to post videos.
In the previous contest we weren't allowed to post videos until the map was released, does that apply here as well?
yeah i submitted mine on the original wip but its not showing up on the list of compleyed maps :( how do i make the topic show up as new?I believe Trem or another mod has been adding them to the top. Just give it a little bit.
The contest deadline has now passed, all released maps have been stickied in the contest section for easy access and the remaining unreleased map topics have been locked and marked as Withdrawn.
If you are the owner of one of the locked unreleased topics and plan to continue developing your map, we can unlock your topic and move it to the normal WIP section. Please PM a staff member to request this.
I will begin working on the poll topic now, it should be up within 24 hours. The staff and I want to do our best to make sure the 10 submissions all follow the rule requirements before we give you the opportunity to vote on them. Wouldn't want a winning map to be disqualified later on due to technicalities.
Your map(s) must be fully functioning, and tested, with no glaring issues or game breaking bugs. We will disqualify any winners if we believe their maps do not follow this rule.
Would World at War flipping out like in Requiem count as a glaring issue or a game breaking bug? Just kind of wondering since atleast three of the competition maps that i've played so far has this issue and are unplayable unless you mess with your settings.Since this isn't something mappers know how to fix... obviously we can't hold it against them.
Will a topic be created for combining the polls of all the contest maps or each poll will be added in its map's topic?No, one new topic will be created having a poll with all approved contest maps.
No, one new topic will be created having a poll with all approved contest maps.

I'm guessing that we're just waiting to see what maps get approved.Exactly, it would be a shame if a map gets the most votes and then gets disqualified because it was not following the rules. We're doing our best to have all maps approved within 24 hours.

Then can I suggest making a list of honorable maps, that got disqualified. It would be a shame if cool maps get disregarded cause they didn't meet the conditions said earlier. ;)IF a map would get disqualified, it would just be released as a normal map. But how it's looking now no single map will be disqualified. We're judging about the last one and will then release the poll :D
