Scene from theme - contest Round 2


(aaa3) #21

who wanna visblock a scene? :D:P stuff it up with stuff densely, who gets the lowest fps winz!!!1ONE1!! xD!

p.s. half-off… i am regretting my decision to not to take part in this round, as i bet no other theme will be ever more fit for me as the current one… loving this bridge sh*t… but the thing came in a quite bad moment for me, i really must concentrate on some other stuff… and this will take a further at least 1-2 month… so i most prolly will be out of the next few ones too… if the time limit would have been somewhat more like 1 more week, then maybe with low intensity i could do this concurrently with the other stuff… , … i always was a slow guy, in nearly everything… anyway rly dont expecting to slowen the upcoming limits if u find it too slow, im just telling/spamming, not asking ;p

Well there aren’t a lot of contestants at the moment. Maybe if we ask Sage politely to reset the date to one week longer? :slight_smile:

Then aaa3 certainly has enough time to make his scene ^^


(aaa3) #23

no there are many for sure. of course, its the best thing to post them on the last day.

and as far as the time go, no way!!! dont do that!! 1) i wouldnt join, 2) most important, his theory is flawed! giving 1 more week gives me a total of 1.5 week; not 4 week as if it would have been if from the start is announced so. offf course i even now have enough time to maky my scene (btw wanted to make multiple scenes when was wondering about entering… it was isbos map which really made me realize how cool were it be to make some stuff for this contest), but with no sleeping minimal eating drinking and toilet, 4x24h work… lol. im not a masochist ^^ and adding seven days wouldnt change the situation from this too much, i would preceive it as nearly the same.
:smiley:

oh and btw, i have to ty shag for his try :stuck_out_tongue:


(Pegazus) #24

Same for me, i don’t have so much time anymore to mess around in GTK.
Half the bridge is ready, just textures and background is missing. But due to upcoming exams, no real time :frowning:


(DerSaidin) #25

Cool.

There’s some nice scenes in these threads. Seems a pity that they’re not going to be used.

Aside:
If anyone is interested in investing their spare time in mapping for a new (free open source) game instead, PM me. Engine is similar to doom3 tech though (still q3 based, so farmiliar), so a little more detailed compared to ET mapping :stuck_out_tongue:


(Pande) #26

What kind of game is it?


(aaa3) #27

i know its off here but no chance in general section… anybody knows how to edit the foliage’s fade distance? i mean in the player’s graphical quality config; not a mapper question. i only found it for qw :SSSSS it would be needed today :((((


(Magic) #28

Ahhhh - i wont make it - havent had time to finish it.
Any chance to move the timelimit some days.


(aaa3) #29

i hope there is; the more entries we see the better :slight_smile: dont worry last time there was given extra time why now not

meanwhile… if anybody sees my above post and knows the answer, post pls :stuck_out_tongue:

Gongrats S14Y3R for winning! Nono just kidding. It seems people are busy with their finals etc. so let’s get a new deadline. Let’s say… end of the month.

What this contest is all about, can be clearly seen in the first post, if read carefully. It’s just for fun and motivation, ideas and inspiration, innovations and help. A contest to boost up the community. A great feeling of creating something new, cool, atmospheric and pretty, without “wasting” it or build a whole map. It’s what mapping is all about afterall, creating and designing, the feeling when you were able to capture a good feeling to a file that can be shown and played. :stroggbanana:


(S14Y3R) #33

true that, how about waiting until there are x number of entries instead?


(aaa3) #34

[QUOTE=Nail;190899]there was a thread about tall grass a while back, iirc it had some info[/QUOTE]yeah, found it, thanks :slight_smile:
(+by coincidence it was started by isbowhten, lol :D)


(-SSF-Sage) #35

Reminder* Deadline getting closer.


(huPoo) #36

As it seems there’s not more participants I’ll steal the 2nd place for myself!

:stroggbanana:


(-SSF-Sage) #37

huPoo: Your entry is not qualified:


(.Chris.) #38

I’m going to have to cut some corners here and there but hopefully I can get it finished on time.


(shagileo) #39

Whaha, nice try huPoo :slight_smile:

Maybe if you add some simple terrain and a little river under it, it can be qualified (so you still have at least 3rd place)
