Here's my entry. If it's too late, blame my brother for preventing me with access to the computer (so I was unable to compile, upload etc. )

And what ever you do, never ever ever make a huge building tilted in off the x axis 45 degrees.

This map isn't packed with custom content! 3/4th of it is ERROR signs and checkerboards!

The deadline hit between Sasha and Taka's posts, so unless Aly decides otherwise Taka's entry is late. I'm also closing the thread.

 

[Freyja]

Deadline has been extended by 24 hours from 17 minutes before this post (ie. 24 hours extension from the hour)

You've seem to forgotten to pack multiple custom models. There are a LOT of ERROR signs!

 

[JohnRavenEye]

Ok, I think I fixed it, I just need someone to test it so see for sure.

 

[Vel0city]

So... Contest is over, am I right?

Aly said it was extended until 8:00 P.M.

There's still one unpacked model in the back the RED industrial building.

I already PM'd him since he asked me to check for any packing issues. Although the models were packed the textures weren't and so everything had black and purple checkerboard textures.

He is probably using crapRat which dosn't pack model textures automaticly

You mean, PakRat: The real-persons bsp packer?

I decided to pack Taka's and Waffledoctor's maps, not that I had much choice if I wanted to make a showcase. SO here they are:

Taka: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zwcsjplqbsi1ncr/detail2014_taka_s9.bsp.bz2?dl=0
Waffledoctor: https://www.dropbox.com/s/yyrb47t7pa4hvb9/detail2014_waffledoctor.bsp.bz2?dl=0

Why would you go through the pain in the ass and pack model textures manually if VIDE does it automaticly?
Why complicated if easy is an option?

 

[iiboharz]

People who use auto-packing tools make me laugh.

Git gud and do it manually.

I ask again: Why complicated if easy is an option?
If you think doing stuff manually means you have more swag then stop using the arch and cylinder tools and make those brushes manually

Actually I fixed all the packing issues in the map a few minutes ago, but thanks anyways.

Because VIDE messes up far more than PakRat, and you have far more control with PakRat.


And I just like PakRat more than VIDE. It's far easier to understand and does the same thing.

Extended deadline has been reached. Thanks everyone! Good luck!
