More about Delirium, more about overdose

Urt jumpers : Hi Delirium, first, would you introduce yourself?
Delirium : Hello Hello! I am Delirium as most of you know me, My real name is Steven and I am a Kiwi(over here that means I'm from New Zealand) I'm 17(18 on the 27 feb) and I'm doing a Bachelor's in Computer Systems at uni smile

For how long have you been playing Urt ?
Since Beta 2.0, I always played lan with my dad/bots until 3.5 when I started jumping

When did you start mapping?
Would have been a year and a bit ago, November 08ish?

What was your first map?
I've made some silly/crap maps but the earliest I'd admit to making is Tohunga smile

Is Overdose your 1st jump map? Why did you wait so long before starting mapping a jump map?
Yes it is. Funny you should ask, making a jump map was originally the first reason i started mapping until i realized mapping a real map is much more fun!
So I never started the jump map until about October 09 when I had a bit/alot more experience =p

How much time have you spent on it?
When I started it was about half an hour a day, then after about 10 jumps it was only in between compiles or when i was bored. Now I can't compile it atm because my computer is lacking Ram so once i get some more then we can expect this show to get back on the road!

What is the overall difficulty of Overdose? Easy, medium, hard?
I always disliked the Idea of a jump map only a handful of people can do, eg LOTR(no offense smeagol<3) and I wanted a jump map which is aimed at professional jumper level, so you'd be aiming somewhere about Vertigo difficulty

What are your plans for the next months? Any other jump map planned?
No, sadly I'm going to put as much as I can into this jump map and any jumps I have left over will be given to a lucky mapper =p

If you could give an advice to mapping beginners, what would it be?
NEVER and I mean NEVER give up, I started then gave up sooo many times i think it was about 7 times in total, but I wanted to make a map.
All it takes is a little bit of reading and perseverance and you willone day get there smile

What updates/fixes  are you expecting about urt 4.2?
From me? Cambridge, you can see any unofficial screenshot updates on my page which I update from time to time, and seeming I'm on the QA team I sort of know whats going to be for 4.2 but that's not my job to tell wink all I can say is you are going to be in for an exciting few weeks once its released!!!

Anything else you'd like to say?
Ummm not quite, but if anyone has any questions or anything don't hesitate: Delirium

Re: More about Delirium, more about overdose

But taking breaks is kind of a requirement.

If you map for say 20 hours in a week, take a break or you'll burn out.  I learnt that pretty quickly, when i did octajumps.  I mapped the majority of it back to back, which ran to 40-50 hours of constant work, only stopping to sleep and eat.  Its not advisable to do it that way.  A little bit here and there is better.
