KryptoN's Contests

KryptoN · Post by **KryptoN** » 10 Dec 2002, 17:56

I made a little contest site for some of my better levels (8 currently, more coming). I'm also planning to make some special levels, ideas and maps for this are welcome. A contest is coming also for my longest map Kryptonian Cavern Complex in separated parts (3 or 4) because the recorded demo can't last more than 5 minutes (the map takes something around 15 minutes

). Feel free to break records on the levels already up on the site

BTW should I put the record replays downloadable for others to see or not? Opinions...

The site: http://koti.mbnet.fi/krypton
The levels: http://koti.mbnet.fi/krypton/knlev.zip

Looks great. I'll try the levels at least.

A question about that level: Did you use up all the available polygons in the editor? 300 or whatever it is....

I made the level long ago so I don't very much remember... But basicly the caverns are one big polygon with LOTS of vertexes, but in the end the limit got me (whatever the limit might be

I just made a new polygon and continued XD (the last exit cave with that red texture). Today almost finished it again but hit my head on a goddamn spike near the exit cave.

Nobody seems to like the contest so I put it down

heh its not like everyone would be hooked on em right from the beginning..
i was just about try your levs but unfortunately saw you have already pulled em off, what a shame remembering how great levs you got as i rated them to top10 levpacks for moposite

well the zip still remains. Dl them if you want... But anyway I noticed that people really aren't interested unless it's someone famous guy doing these contests... But well, that was it.

Everybody must start from the beginning.

I know that's the problem, I don't have time to handle these things out (like posting here and gain popularity, and playing elma more). I sometimes play elma when I don't have anything better to do. I just made it and hoped someone may be interested but then I realized it's not gonna work and deleted it.

You should finish that LGR at least. It sounds good.

Well, I downloaded your levels and played some... And some of them were good. I think you should wait longer before you take them down.

well i don't see any problem just letting it be.. maybe you in a way, want it either to be popular, or to not exists at all..

for example, when abu would possibly have added it in moposites links section, im sure it would have gotten known more. it's not everyone who reads this forum you know

but do as you want... i liked ur levs alot, can already remember a few very nice ones

I haven't even started to make it.

But please now... I took them down and that's it. I don't have that much time as I said (maybe on my christmas holiday?). I was a bit bored and the games I played didn't much interest me anymore so I tried elma again and it was fun. But now I got a good clan in Firearms half-life growing more active so elma will be moved to second place (if even that). Well I can put the site up again if you guys want...
