It's the ultimate accolade for a custom mapper; to have your work in an official TF2 map. Well, TF2Maps.net and Valve Software have teamed up to give ONE lucky mapper that opportunity. We've got our hands on an unfinished Valve map, and we need YOU to detail it! Think you're up to the challenge?

Neat! Our own Valve-sanctioned community contest like Polycount got! I can't wait to see what our members come up with! I'm actually considering giving it a shot myself.

I see someone actually linked to a global time calculator site like I complained was necessary for the gameday scheduling ;)

Me and My clanmates are gonna try to take part and participate.

Though, its not my map, i'm just lending him some stuff to add. Texture wise.

Seems a bit like a collaboration, no?

You might want to clear that with someone before going forward, make sure that all he does is give you textures.

What?

What I mean is, when the contest thread is open, he will create an account here and post his map. I'm just creating textures for him.

I only just joined to see what all the competition was.

Officially intrigued. I've been looking for an excuse for a mapping project this summer. I'll take part if I can come up with a decent idea. I was gutted I didn't have the time to take part in the Polycount contest.

Mapping collaborations are not allowed in any form, as it presents a significant disadvantage for everyone who works alone. You are allowed to use an artist to create specific props/textures for your detailing, but the actual map detail must be done by you.

Da rules. Make sure you read, and follow them.

Custom map authors got 2 grand, 2 thousand dollars. No, it is not a typo.

(although thinking about it, they might have got $2.5k, double check with an actual official custom map author to be sure).
