Mapbase was originally created by Blixibon and almost all work, ideas, and direction involved with Mapbase were created or implemented by this person. (he's also the one writing these credits)

Open-source work used in Mapbase

We previously kept a list of all work borrowed from free source code articles or open-source repositories here. We now keep a more comprehensive and extremely strict version of this list in the README files of the Mapbase build and the Mapbase code repository.

You can find the README on the repository here: https://github.com/mapbase-source/source-sdk-2013/blob/master/README

Special Thanks

krassell

krassell's insight and suggestions helped shape Mapbase into what it is today. His feedback and advisory prevented many terrible things from happening and introduced the ideas for many of Mapbase's logic entities. He was also one of the first contributors.

1upD

1upD is a big part of why Mapbase's repo is as elaborate as it is. He helped with getting the repo set up, making it easy to merge with existing Source 2013 forks, etc.

reductor

reductor created a custom implementation of VScript in Source 2013 for Mapbase, which is something that many have tried and failed to do for years across many different projects. Mapbase probably never would've gotten VScript without his work.

Source Modding Community

I met a lot of people on SMC that greatly helped with and influenced Mapbase in its early stages. SMC also allowed it to have a dedicated mod channel.

Map Labs

In more recent times, Map Labs has helped Mapbase reach new communities and remain highly tied to its original target audience (Mapping competition entrants).
