Got my theme properly sorted now - just need to crack on this weekend and get it done. :)

I assume a few, small custom assets are ok (didn't notice anything against that in the first post) as I need a few retextured models and a new wall decoration to make my floor work (est. 3-4Mb models & textures).

I noticed about the idea of a keypad on the hub floor - if the mod launch lines up with the OSX release we could implement that using the new GUI system! :)

No restrictions other than keep it to two floors. if you want to submit more than one thing that's fine too. If the whole thing ends up being over the 100mb limit for steam, we'll chop it up into parts if we have to.

Well, as I lost my keyboard for almost a week, I haven't been able to finish up the fixes on this. Since the deadline is tomorrow, there's no way I'll have it done (it's 99.98 percent there, but there is a nasty crash-inducing bug I didn't have time to squish, if I'm even able to).

Aaannnnndd, final version of my floor sent! I would like to request that everyone involved in this project sound off now, so we can synchronize. The assembly of this is to begin soon (And years of management have taught me that things we never conceived, are going to begin causing problems now). This is an important concept/project, and I would love to see the community rally around it. Someone is being charged with the task (Ed, HaunterV?!) of mashing together many authors/approaches, and solving the inherent conflicts caused by attempting such a feat is a daunting task. Maybe we really can get it out by x-mas for a gift to the community! Here's to CFD 2013. See ya there!

Didn't realize we were under deadline like that. Oops. :oops:

Email sent just now, I hope my floors can still be included. I'm all giddy with excitement! :lol:

Here's hoping this project is a huge success!

I apologize for being rare as of late. Huge thanks to all those who submitted a dungeon thus far!!! I'm thrilled to see this project has generated sizable interest and seen an investment of time and effort from so many!

A preview release is coming out in the next few days as an xmas gift back to the community! The December 15th deadline is to make it into that release. If you'd like to touch up your submission and submit it again in the next couple days, it very well may make it into the xmas release, but it's not guaranteed. I'm focused on getting everything working together at this point. Submissions will remain open in order to build a full dungeon release!

So when is the "full release"?
It depends on YOU! It will come after we have at least one dungeon submitted in each tier! I'd like to get my own piece finished too, which I just haven't had much time for. Don't be afraid to start working on one because you do have time!

Final Floor
We still need a finale floor for the Holiday Preview release. No fighting or puzzles, just a small end-of-game area. Does anyone want to and have the ability to make it in the next... say... 3 days? We can only have one, so the first person to call it gets the job. HaunterV or I will make something short and simple if there are no takers. This would just be a small area and ending cinematic for the game to end, so the ending isn't as abrupt as hitting a red teleporter. I'm thinking it should include at least:
  • A holiday theme (specifically xmas or not)
  • Some sort of "thanks for playing" and/or "game over" type messages.
  • List of credits in the ending cinematic (I'll compile these; please leave a place to insert them)
  • A note of this forum+thread and how anyone interested in modding can join the forums and contribute to upcoming releases! It never hurts to drum up more interest for this and future community projects. :D
