Actually I don't recall him saying he quit before.

Anyway, challenge done, pm sent.

Oops, I missed my deadline :( sorry guys
I'll try to get everything drawn up and awarded tomorrow, but for now have a look at my next challenge:

You might not recognise it because I put r_fullbright on. It's on arachnid2. If you need more screenshots, say.

benmachine · « **Reply #64 on:** August 18, 2007, 02:45:45 am »

The shot is looking at the underside of an acid tube.
Riight in the middle.

OK, take a look at these:

I can't take normal screenshots because with r_gamma 1 this tube is virtually invisible.

OH NOES DOUBLE POST
I finally got the winners page for last challenge up, it's a little more rushed and less carefully assembled than the first one though.
Results

AKAnotu · « **Reply #68 on:** August 19, 2007, 03:03:17 am »

well ben, you stumped me
i thought of three different ways to do it but i dont have the patience to execute them

Divmax · « **Reply #69 on:** August 19, 2007, 01:55:19 pm »

Is using the spawn block punt allowed?

Vector_Matt · « **Reply #70 on:** August 19, 2007, 02:26:56 pm »

Yah! First to beat number 3.
pm sent.

BTW I can't view the second challenge's "official" demo. I get a "demo msglen > MAX_MSGLEN" error.

Edit: Nux, how did you do that?

no.

Vector_Matt: that's odd, can anyone else verify this?
If you are still having problems I'll try re-making it.

I made sure to join a server with plenty of myself on it.

Iltama · « **Reply #73 on:** August 19, 2007, 08:57:12 pm »

Mmmm, that was a tough challenge : D. Meh, I think I didn't do it via the easiest way. I'm really curious to see how others did it after this challenge ends >_>.

Raytray · « **Reply #74 on:** August 20, 2007, 03:07:57 pm »

Dammit, I'm stumped.

Even though I only tried once.

UnnamedPlayer · « **Reply #75 on:** August 20, 2007, 03:58:42 pm »

Only tried once, got halfway, got stuck. Oh and I did the challenge in tremx because i downloaded arcade and it messed up my trem, and the nromal base devmap doesn't auto build for me.

Hello UnnamedPlayer! Please press Esc --> Go to Options --> Rename ^^

I know this is offtopic... but I'm gobsmacked that "UnnamedPlayer" hadn't been taken before the fifth of August.

Poor guy, all the kids must make fun of him at school.

UnnamedPlayer · « **Reply #79 on:** August 21, 2007, 05:38:09 am »

Yeah I was surprised no one took this name too, and I'm famous for not having a name at school. :wink:

Contradiction!

Back on topic though, I'd like to thank benmachine for making these challenges and rewards because I haven't done so yet, and he deserves the praise.

The only reason I didn't attempt the 3rd challange because I don't play nonstandard maps. Today I took another glance at the screenshot. lol

Arachnid2 isn't standard now? When did that happen?

No, I didn't mean that arachnid2 is not in the mainstream Tremulous anymore. I mean when the first time I looked at the screenshot, I didn't recognize that it was arachnid2. I thought it was some quick noobmap with very bad graphics. Some time ago I looked at the screenshot again, and discovered that it was actually arachnid2 without lightmaps.

thirdstreettito · « **Reply #86 on:** August 22, 2007, 10:45:11 pm »

thats too cool

mooseberry · « **Reply #87 on:** August 23, 2007, 02:08:18 am »

This looks cool, maybe I'll try it. I want a cookie like the first round.

And so does my friend.
