Call to action: Looking for writers, authors, and more

2019 年 12 月 17 日 - msleeper dot com | 2 条留言

Thinking With Portals is looking for old and new Community Contributors who are interested in helping put together written tutorials, Portal community news, and in-depth high-concept level design (Portal specific, or Source in general) articles.

This content would be for both Thinking With Portals, and for the Source design blog https://nodraw.net/ that we have recently partnered with.

We are also looking for members who are interested in Source 2 / Hammer 2 for the release of Half-Life: Alyx when the time comes. That is obviously more focused on future stuff, but we're trying to lay the groundwork for some great things going forward.

If you are at all interested in getting involved in the community in this way, please join our Discord server[forums.thinking.withportals.com] where we are planning and coordinating our new content. Thank you!

ThinkingWithPortals is proud to announce another mapping competition.

The Theme[cdn.discordapp.com]

"TOWERING"
The theme for this competition is "towering".
You may interpret this however you’d like, whether it be visuals-
focused, puzzle-focused, or some combination thereof. It doesn’t
even have to be set in Aperture if you want! However, your map
should plainly communicate some aspect of the theme.

Prizes will be awarded to the top 3 scorers:
- 1st place, $50 Steam gift card
- 2nd place, $25 Steam gift card
- 3rd place, $10 Steam gift card

Rules/FAQ

Can others help in making the map/puzzle?
No. The map should be made by you and you alone. That said, others can help by making other assets like models, sounds, textures, etc.

Can my map be co-op?
Yep! Just keep in mind that it may require more work.

Can my map use custom assets?
Sure! Assets should be packed into the BSP. If you exceed the 100MB Workshop limit or need to include unpackable files like soundscripts/particle systems, include custom assets in a .zip file in the description.

Does the map have to be original/new?
Yes. The map should be made specifically for the competition. You may use instances or prefabs from other maps, but it should otherwise be original.

Can I use PTI/puzzlemaker?
For this competition, yes! Keep in mind that if you choose to use puzzlemaker, it may be judged more critically in the "visuals" section, and your originality score will have to come purely from your puzzle!

How do I submit my map?
All submissions will be sent through Google forms. The link to this will be available closer to the due date. Follow the announcements on the TWP Discord channel[forums.thinking.withportals.com] for further updates.

If you have any questions regarding the theme/rules, ask!

SUBMISSIONS ARE DUE DECEMBER 29, 2019 - Good luck!
