Hm. I do have sort of a "creepy" map sitting back in the Test Chamber Creation Annex. Maybe if I get the mAI entry finished on time...

I know of some people putting a scary map together. Who they are and what they are doing are confidential... I think.

I would upload the 200mb version here and try to do everything to reduce the filesize for the workshop.
Think about not doing a non-HDR version.
What format are your music files? If they're wav's, make them mp3's etc.
An external link in your description will give you reactions like "the map has no sound". People don't read descriptions :wink:

Can you loop MP3's? I thought the format didn't have support for loop points.

I'm not really making that scary of a map, but an interesting challenge map. The only scary part will be the fear of messing up. Can't really explain more. Gotta start working on it...

Yeah, I hope I get mine finished on time...

I'm trying to actually make it a bit scary. Very curious how that will turn out.
