[CLOSED] [MAPPING CONTEST] - CODM 1 - Crown of the Dungeon Maker

I love this idea! Even if we just flood the world with playable mini-adventures, I'm all about it!

Somehow Silverquick will turn one small map into an entire campaign. ;)

Lol I could, 

But I figured I'd bow out of this one since I think he's trying to encourage new module makers so it would be kind of unfair of me to throw my hat into the ring. 

Eh, it's going to be awarded by random draw anyway. Might as well give everybody something to strive for!

Well if that's the case sure I can throw something together fairly quickly that would be high quality. 

Well I whipped something up real quick tonight, its actually pretty good,

Not really playtested that much and its off the top of my head. I only tested with the Default party so I imagine any party should be able to get through it. I'll turn it over to SirMadness tomorrow. 

Hey ya ! :)
@SimulationCommander Yeah I think that you'll be happy to know that i received a map from the Silverquick ! As I am :) And i'm waiting for yours now :p

As Silverquick said the main goal is to encourage players to use the DM a little + help to promote the future DLC as well and the random draw is here to "not judge" new creators and let them try and do what they can with comfort

But I'll try my best to provide another key with a "jury" electing the "best map" - This will depend on how many participation I'll have for this contest, if there is only 3 well.. if there is a Lot i'll do, That i'll know only at the end of the dead line (20th september.) Already asked him but Silverquick may be part of this jury though this particular jury/key thing is still a "stand by". (and still need to think about what can be the points to check on a map like "decoration / interactions / creativity etc.. I don't really know for the moment what can be a "good overview")

I've never done anything like that before but maybe I'll give it a shot :) 

Lol I could, 

But I figured I'd bow out of this one since I think he's trying to encourage new module makers so it would be kind of unfair of me to throw my hat into the ring.

Thinking about this a little further, it WOULD be possible to set up an "arena" style battleground where you could set up chests for each level. Opening the chest would start a level-appropriate fight. With a campfire, I don't see why you couldn't just have a single map grind from 1-10!

Alright I'm almost finished but I can't figure a couple things out:

How do I get the game to start up with a blank screen to put text on? A prologue to the adventure. Also, how do I make it so you export your characters instead of just having the game go back to the main screen when the adventure is over?

Once I fix those I think I'm ready to submit.

I think most people use the Entry Activator > Activated Lore (modal) to get that first screen of introduction text

You export your characters by leaving an Exit with destination 0 (it doesn't go to another map). Taking your party through that gets the game over screen with stats and Update (export).

Thanks, I'll try that out :)

After I posted I realized it wouldn't let me export because I was using the playtest party *doh*

When I ran through it on newly created characters it allowed me to export as normal :) 

It's alive!!!

Just one more pass to finish up the wordsmithing and I'm all set to submit :)

Thanks for all the help, you guys! I never would have tried anything like this without a little push :)

Oh ! I didn't see the message earlier, do not hesitate to send your map when it's done i'll add it to the list though the review already started today :)

I'll post here every VOD review once the link will be available.
