3. Can I skip adding perks and weapon purchases and doors? I've got an idea for map but these 3 things conflict with it. Don't worry, I think it will still be fun

Shedding light on the idea, may give you more of a definitive answer.

Oh hello, everybody! It appears it's my first post here so letme introduce first - I'm BraXi, author of CoD4 Deathrun Mod and a guy who helped developing CoD Reign of The Undead Mod, I also like mapping and doing 'things&stuff' , oh and I hate zombies... that's why I'm killing them all

Looks like I've finally found a SERIOUS mapping competition so it's time to dust of Radiant, install CoD:WaW and enter competition 

Good luck to everybody participating!

Here are some screenshots from my previous projects http://imgur.com/a/cRis6 (sorry but some are from diferent map versions and often a WIP)


Edit: I've got some questions regarding map design
1. are we allowed to manipulate weather and time (day/night cycle)?
2. can environment be destroyable?
3. Can I skip adding perks and purchaseable doors? I've got an idea for map but these 2 things conflict with it, I'd tell more about why I prefeer to not include them, but then my map wouldn't be a suprise 

 and can we use music we've got right for (for example a friend makes ambient sound/music for my map)?

Cool test.

I'd like to have my map story (read: objectives) driven, with a good and bad ending, i think I'll let players purchase something inbetween waves, just not sure if I should add perks. Sadly, I cannot tell more  8)

1. You are allowed to make it whatever weather and time you want, but keep in mind the recommendations that Gunns4Hire wrote in the first topic, which suggest not making the map dark or foggy because it will look bad after YouTube converts their video and screws around with the colors - which will affect your score.
2. Yes
3. I really suggest you don't skip adding perks and doors. Those things are key elements of CoDWAW Zombies and I would imagine that leaving them out will kill your score. I certainly would not bother playing a map that was listed as not having perks or purchasable doors if I were browsing maps on the forum.

I won't be having perks in my map, i will be having another way of earning them  8) same with the doors

I think he was suggesting that he wouldn't have perks at all, not that he was not going to have the machines for them. But maybe I misunderstood.

do you mean no perks at all or just the inability to buy them? i think we should be able to get them in some way or form

Um, I'm not going to lie. Giving $1000 to a charity is a complete waste. Fact: 99% of the money you give is going to go into the pockets of the people who run the charity. It would actually be a wiser investment to buy an iPhone. At least if you buy the iPhone you are keeping the starving children in China employed for another 30 minutes. Boom!

Or you could invest the money in a charity close at your home, you don't have to go far, not everyone in the first world has a good life like us.

I think you should half the prize amounts for this competition and hold another one with another theme after this one with the rest of the money. That way there will be more maps more winners and every one is happy

You guys, I mean the team members, have any map in mind to release in the contest, I'm really curious to know

No need to half anything. If enough people participate in this contest, there is a good chance there will be another, with the same amount or even more prizes. We love the zombie community and we'll do anything to keep it alive and thriving.

I'm in this Gunns. Thank you for this opportunity.
I'm still working on Meats house but I guess I'll put it aside for a bit if I have too.
Let's do this I'm so hyped right now!

Awesome man, put your growing skills to work.

Are you supposed to sign up before or after the 11th?
I should have asked this beforehand

last night i thought and completely changed my idea for my map, and many features that haven't popped up in very many maps, and some that have never been in any maps. I plan to give you experienced people a run for your money.
