Today on MODSonair we announced our next MODSCON, MODSonline Contest. Create and submit the best Left 4 Dead 2 chapter and you could win a $200 USD Visa gift card. And not just once, but we are offering this contest a total of three times making a potential win of $600 possible.

We want a new Left 4 Dead 2 campaign so we've decied to hire the community to help us build it. We want a total of three chapters to our campaign and each chapter could win you a $200 USD Visa gift card.

You can let your imagination run when building the first of the three chapter campaign. We aren't holding you back with a theme. We just want you to put the MODSonline logo in your masterpiece. We'll even provide you the texture to use.

After judging the first submissions, you will have to continue the campaign based on the winning previous entry. Include our logo and make it good and you could earn one or all of the $600 in prizes (that's 3 x $200).

Check the rules for details.

Quite possibly the best MoDScon set up I have ever seen! Can't wait to start!

Best of luck everyone!

Damn. That's a pretty awesome prize. Good luck to all that enter.

Sounds like a lot of fun, may the best Mapper/Modder win ;)

Hmm might enter , have to get a grip how to use hammer first :P

Lol same, just downloaded it a few days ago can't wait!

Cool beans!

Will winner submissions be available either playable or source files after they're picked so mappers can know where to pick up from, or will ModsOnline staff make a video walkthrough of some kind to hold off releasing maps?

SparkyMcSparks writes...Something like that makes alot of sense.

If you guys do make walk through videos of submissions, be sure to do video commentary like some devs do. Talking about what you guys liked about the map, what you thought could have been better, how the design is in areas, etc... That would be really neat and informative for the next Stages.

SparkyMcSparks writes...the entire source will not be released for each map, however the ending safe room will be released as the start point for the next chapter

the chapters will likely be released shortly after awarding the prize as well so that the following chapters will have something to base their entry on

the map sources will have to be submitted (in their entirety for judging) and we will extract the safe room to allow for incorporation into the next chapter

good luck to all entrants - and i look forward to all your submissions
