The 2016 Winter 72HR TF2Jam

[LeSwordfish]

Joining this and I'm sure as hell streaming it!
I've never streamed before so kind of scared actually. I don't quite understand what you mean by posting the dates and times I'm entering, can someone clarify if I have to put the date, even if I am joining the day it starts?
Also does the timer automatically start in OBS or something? I haven't figured out how to start it, lol.
If you're just spectating, my Twitch name is just TheOfficialJC
Can't make maps for the life of me so just animating. Happy Jamming!

You don't need to post the dates and times if you're joining in at the usual time.

 

[Mr.JC]

You don't need to post the dates and times if you're joining in at the usual time.

Alright sweet! And about the clock in OBS, does it start on it's own with the url I put in? I have no idea how it works or how to start it lol.

 

[LeSwordfish]

I'm not sure - perhaps @Geit knows?

It'll start when the event begins (hopefully).

 

[OnyxCanoe™]

Is anyone willing to join me in a collaboration on a CP map? If so, either PM (if that's a thing), Steam message, or whatever. It's nearly the start of the Jam and I still need someone to assist me.

Hope we can make something good! (we talked on steam )

Also is it allowed to work with your collab-partner and also making your own map? I mostly going to helping him out in a few thing but I also want to work on my map afor the contest aswell.

 

[Davekillerish]

Its close, real close, about time I found out how tf I edit KoTH logic....

 

[14bit]

I'm in, and it looks like I'll be starting a day early!

I'll be participating from Thursday, January 28, at 4:00 PM EST to Sunday, January 31, at 4:00 PM EST. I believe 1454274000 is the Unix timecode to plug into @Geit's countdown clock, but correct me if I'm wrong. I'll be livestreaming the whole thing again, here's a link.

Oh, and I'll be making a PLR map this year.
(I know I said arena earlier, but...)

 

[spudboy]

I figure this is as good a time as any to try and get back into the whole mapping thing. I might even stream. Maybe.

Anyway yeah I'm excited about this.

 

[Zed]

Speaking of PLR, will you ever release that circular PLR prefab, @14bit?

 

[14bit]

@Zed I posted a version of it last year, but I haven't updated it in a long time. The version in plr_orbit is slightly different, feel free to decompile it if you want. I'm working on an update to the map for this year, and I will release a proper prefab with new and updated logic when I release it.

Here's the thread to the old one.

I might as well put it here for anyone who wants to try it for the 72 hour contest.

 

[Freyja]

I hope not

 

[Vel0city]

@14bit Will it include the rollback zones? I might just have found my game mode. Not for a joke map, but for a serious map.

 

[LeSwordfish]

Do I need a FacePunch account as well?

Nope - you just need to be able to post on here

 

[BlazingDiancie]

Only 1 week left! Im so excited. I'm already warming up my hammer.

Ikr, I'm getting Notepad++ all ready and raring to go. Dreadbolt and his army have been created, now all I need to do is just put them into evil squads of death. >

 

[Bogdy]

I think I have decided on what I will do.
I was thinking of making this YouTube series where I "dissect" popular maps and discuss what was done right and what was done wrong.
Sort of a learning reference for newer mappers.

 

[Makzutheamazing]

i think i am going to do one of those posters that mappers put on their maps and have their name on them.

 

[Bakscratch]

Is there a rule on custom content this time? (as not a contest)

 

[LeSwordfish]

Nope - do what you want.

 

[Crash]

Nope, go nuts.
