Mapcore's UE4 Whitebox Challenge

cheers this is very useful

Awwh, I won't be able to work much more on my submission for the challenge, going to Nice this weekend and not coming back until the contest is over.

I really like this light colors, but It's a bit too dark in some places I think.

Some more progress. The idea is that the bottom areas and the center of the map have a industrial tech look to them but there is a layer of smooth white and black futuristic panels on the top and outer rooms. I may have this all fleshed out by the deadline though its already a lot further along than it should be at this point.

damn it chris.... you have turned what was meant to be a whitebox challenge into a full blown challenge...

disqualified.

This fucking chris guy.

Oh I was going to do this no matter what anyway I just got off to a slow start. haha!

So, while I'm waiting to do all the preparations for play testing helium, I'm messing around with a CTF map - got a pretty bonkers concept I'm testing out now - In a way, I wish I could still use a fake skybox, I have a feeling working so far away from the grid center is a bad idea.

OK I hope this works, I've uploaded a cooked and editor version of the map and assets

Cooked = https://www.dropbox.com/s/q6qejcart89n…Cooked.pak?dl=0

Editor = https://www.dropbox.com/s/mkejasi3grl9ee7/Maps.rar?dl=0

Feel free to do what you want with the assets, it's all whitebox shizzle

As for the map itself, I made some minor tweaks to the item placement, fixed some bugs and added some shooting stars that wizz over every now and then!

cheers, the lower area is mostly for if you fall off, but your the second person to mention the elevator speed, I will increase it. There is a bug though - which I think they're fixing where you can fall through if its too fast.

Moving the redeemer down there might be cool for sure! as it could be one of the only safer areas to fire and guide it.

Finally got some kind of screenshot of the map I've been working on lately a little bit. Inspired by Q3DM1:

Idea is that there's this Fortress that is on some unrealistically tall mountain above clouds. Environment hazards are fun (more use for the Impact Hammer).

https://www.unrealengine.com/ue4-on-github

then once you can access it - just download the game zip

very cool man, looks like a really fun arena, good size and lots of nice trick jumps. Architecture is also interesting, could work for quite a number of visual styles IMO

Have you cancelled your sub right after subscribing? It needs to be set to "active".

That's it, though I have a friend who has an active sub with the same problem. I'll check in with him.

Edit: He's on a developer thing of 1 year free UE4 if the company you work for also uses unreal. Unfortunately it means "1 year of credit" rather than "active subscription" for 1 year.

I don't think i'm going to make it until sunday. I'm not understanding all the tools well enough yet, to have a good workflow. 10 days vacation last week was not very productive Maybe i'll be able to create at least "something" but i'm not very optimistic at the moment^^ Good luck to everyone else and i'm really excited to see all the entries
