To boost the activity in the Members’ Projects forum, I’ve decided to run a little contest thread –

Map of the Week!


What does this mean?


On every Friday, I will pick the most interesting, innovative or just, most fun map or idea
from the Members’ Projects forum and announce it as the „Map of the Week“.

The chosen map will get stickied until the next one is picked and the author
will receive reputation from me (or others who wish to congratulate)!

NB!
You can make suggestions which map should deserve to be named the map of the week!
I’ll take such recommendations very much into consideration.

(When replying which map, please add a link to the thread)


The first map will be chosen on the 21st of November.




Good luck!

Nice initiative, but yeah... I don't really find any map in the members' projects very outstanding, so meh.

This is a good idea for a thread :)
Although I don't think there are enough active threads here to be able to pick a map every week.
I think within 2 months, the crappy maps will get awarded, or there will be repeats.

My vote goes down for The PlatformerI like to play it.It is one thing to make 2d look 3D but to make 3D into 2D is a whole different story.(plus i love games that take 10-15 minutes to play)

Don't be so pessimistic. Though, we'll see.

Andrewgosu, will the nominated map be judged by its orginality as map, or features?

The map will be chosen how fun to play is, how original or innovative, custom features...etc. you name it.

Anything that stands out.

Why wouldn't you be able to "nominate" yourself? We're basically doing nothing but giving Andrewgosu our own opinion since it, in the end, is he alone that'll announce the Map of the Week.

Hm.........how is the map of the week going to be nominated anyway? A poll? Or you decide?

There are too many maps to make a poll.

I'll choose the map depending on the feedback given here.

Everyone want their map to be sticked, so other players can see it. A sticky map/project also looks better :p. Then people will only nominate themself.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
