This jam is now over. It ran from 2021-08-22 22:00:00 to 2021-09-05 22:00:00.


Serious Sam Classics is proud to announce the 2nd mapping JAM on this server. First what is a mapping Jam? A mapping jam is making something off the hook, just relax and go with the flow.

The idea of a Mapping Jam is simply creating a map and sharing to others through the event. Each Mapping Jam has got a theme and rules. Once the maps collected, there will be a release of all the maps (individually packed) in the discord server and in Rakanishu’s itch.io page. Events will be held after the release of the maps.

Another important point of the Mapping Jam is that the events advocate fun, sharing, kindness and respect. This event is NOT a contest and there will in no case be a ranking in the end.No special theme for this jam. Let your creativity speak and create according to whatever comes to your mind!

23 AUG. – 6. SEPT

  • Maps are allowed to have custom assets
  • Do not use gore, hate-spreading or sexual content.
  • Your map must be packed in a .gro-archive and launch correctly on a clean installation of Serious Sam. Don't use non-latin letters and spaces in the filenames. You AutoGRO to make a correct package.
  • You can submit only one map.
  • Credit talking, if you use any resource that is NOT yours, you MUST credit it either in a Readme File that you provide when submitting your map to Rakanishu.
  • Try to make an HQ thumbnail for your map (512x512) in the format yourlevelnameTbn.tex
  • Set your map in the directory Levels/LevelsMP/Deathmatch/MappingJam/2W_Deathmatch_Jam_01/ so every participant’s maps’ will stand one after the other in the game’s level selection list. That prevents from having a messy level selection list.
  • Anything that can be considered illegal or prohibited in any civilized country of the world is prohibited
  • If, by any means, you need to break one of the event rules, please, contact one Rakanishu.

Thank you for reading and understand the rules & guidelines. If everybody respects them, everything will go well!

• Register in Private Message to Rakanishu. Say you want participate to the Jam.
• Submit your map to Rakanishu from a transfer website (mediafire, mega, yaki, whatever you want…).

Games acceptable for Mapping: Serious Sam Classic: The Second Encounter

Rakanishu will release the maps after collecting them. You can finish your map before the deadlines if you wish. Rakanishu, as the event host will test the maps and make sure nothing is broken and that every rule is respected. If anything is broken, the participant will be warned and will have to fix this. Once everything is fixed, we’ll go for a release both on discord & on the itch.io page. 

After the release will take place events on the released maps!

Q: - Can I make a map for Serious Sam: Revolution?

A: - No: If you really want your map to be on Revolution, please build your map first in Serious Sam: The Second Encounter. TSE to Rev is an easy process. Rev to TSE is a time consuming and tricky process. Build your map for TSE, and then port it to Rev after the release!
