after careful thought and talking to some other mappers i have decided that i'm going to remove this map from the contest, because of game breaking bugs and too much stress to complete before the deadline. thus i will release the map at a later date but not as a contest submission. originally this map was just created on a whim to stay in the contest after HHS got disqualified for obvious reasons, HHS will be released on a later date as well. this map has been a pain to make and is just not worth continuing for the contest. I apologize to any who may have been looking forward to this map. but have no fear it will be released later. Sign elykson343

The Ideal place i would like to go is into my own mind.

I have decided to name the map "Its All in Your Head".

Progress: 55%

 total posters: 73 added

i have put the model in game.

I have decided to use my air cannons that i had made for my applied physics course at Idaho State University as models for EE weapons.

i added a slide to make the spawning in a little more interesting



CLICK THE HIDDEN TEXT BELOW FOR BACKSTORY

The backstory is based on the Many Worlds Theory that every possibility, has happened and is happening in an alternate dimension parallel to our own dimension. This is an alternate story for the group where they were supposed to go back in time to the excavation site and stop the outbreak from happening but through complications ended up in Kino Der Toten.

The backstory opens up to the group as they are just escaping from the theatre.
(I may turn this sequence into a 3D CG animation and have it as a single player loading screen.)

The contest states that the map has to be your ideal place to go in a zombie apocalypse, is this where you would like to go

(Op, I'd reccomend using custom weapons or you'll be missing what most/all the rest of the maps have)

i love colorful maps cause im colorblind and it makes it easier to discern colors and objects. and the furry posters and DJ s3rl songs are pretty much my life so yes this is my ideal place to hide out in. this map is pretty much a rave in a nut shell with less naked people

That just proves its a place "you would like to go and have fun" not "the most appropriate place you can find in the case of the apocalypse"

I don't think that the contest rules for theme are meant to be followed to the absolute letter. By that logic any map not taking place in a 10,000-foot-deep bunker stockpiled with guns and food would be invalid, as any other map really isn't the best place you'd want to be in. Half the maps on the WiP board are already either far-fetched or fictional. And besides, why wouldn't you want to die surrounded by what you enjoy?

Unless you have as much authority in the contest as Tom or Trem (in which case I revoke my statement) I think it's best to let the hosts judge what's allowed?

oh i know, was just pointing out the logic lol

Id like to hold up in subway (The sandwich place) but still think the pentagon would be a better choice lol

lol and no - no authority - was just "trying" to be funny. Guess it failed

dont worry i understood your point. and even if my map was disqualified for it i still would have uploaded the map anyway.

Sorry, sarcasm is difficult to detect through the interwebs 

Oh and btw, if shit ever does hit the fan and you decide to hide out in a Subway, seriously, don't eat the spinach, even if you're starving.

Last time I had spinach on a Subway sandwich, I got the flu. Heard they don't wash it properly 

I beat the two foot long subs challenge my wife proposed yesterday - easy

lol and NOTHING is being disqualified, lol, joke gone terribly wrong lol

This map looks pretty awesome from the screenshots. Also WHO WOULD THINK OF A SCOPED FULL AUTO COLT!!!??? THAT IS AWESOME!  I cant wait till you finish it.
