New Modding Contest

[Skydragon222]

Hello everyone its time for a new contest on modding!!
You can make a mod using any tool from arsenal 3 to Memgraft to IceCC the mods are due July 4th and must be able to work on all maps.
This date is unchangeable and you have plenty of time to work.
The theme of this mod is……

A war between 2 forces It can be heaven and hell, dark and light, salt and pepper, anything that has 2 sides that fight agaisnt one another.

You only have to modify 2 races for this mod and I don’t care which 2 you do. However it must be a spectacular conversion for both.

The mods will be graded on these 5 categories

Graphics
Originality
Fun
Balance (that means one race cant be broken)
Amount of modding

This is due July 4th have fun
Also does anyone want to judge??

I was a little bland on the categories of judging so let me explain

Originality- go for something new, put horns on your zerglings and make them breathe fire (don’t do that I will dock points since I just said it)

Graphics- I don’t want units to look the same way they did in starcraft make sure they look at least slightly new

Fun- is the mod yawn-inducing or worth a replay?

Balance- are your two races equal? They don’t have to be perfectly matched up in skill but at least make sure they are a match for each other.

Amount of modding- Is every one of the units for your two races modified or do you only have 1 modified scout that looks like an angel.

[U-238]

If this goes through I'll judge. However as far as entering I'll have to pass. Other projects are in development right now.

[Skydragon222]

Thamks u-238 anyone want to enter a mod? A modding contest has never gone thorugh on these forums due to changing due dates or themes that keep changing. Its high time a modding contest got participants. plenty of people have looked at this thread i'm sure one of you can do some modding.

71 views
1 reply honestly all you other 69 people could at least post your thoughts

Above this thread is Modding contest: fleets all you modders jump to that mod but suddenly Heaven and hell at least tell me someonelooking at this can mod.

[Kawagata]

well don't stack your post. if noone cares don't force it. edit button is there for a reason.

[Skydragon222]

sorry I just wanted to make sure someone cared.

say, can you mod?

[Kawagata]

yes but not very well. wait for the fleet one to end first. you'll probably have more luck then.

[U-238]

also, if you really look at the fleets contest, there were only 3 entries and one dopped. (and neither of those two are anything really serious)

Modding contests usually just don't bode well if there's nothing solid behind them. Another thing that really can kill a modding contest is a theme. people hate having to work around guidlines. They'd rather implement their own idea's and there's really no point in entering a contest that will force them to make a mod around some set theme.

There's been a few "contests" around here lately and non of them have really succeeded.

[raidmax]

yeah, as U238 said, themes kill mods. Thats why I havent joined any contests. And complete graphic changes to every races (or 2 races in this) also turns people away. I can mod, but I'm not to willing to do this.

[Skydragon222]

I broadened the theme criteria which allows much more freedom in this mod. I like the 2 opposing forces Idea alot but if you still think my theme is to constraining plz say so.

[raidmax]

now it seems better, you may get a few people.

[Skydragon222]

You know raid your dark protoss mod is pretty awesome have you considered doing something similiar for this. If Dark Protoss is done and you need a new project now is the perfect time to get started. C'mon it would be awesome. you could make light terrans or something and then you would just need to make some weapon changes. It seems awesome.

Kawagata on another thread you talked about a mod that would make boats by making te water psi you could do that here i seem to remember a few sea battles in history. ahem* Normandy, Spanish armada, war in the pacific, seriously you could do it for fun and maybe win the contest.

[raidmax]

I guess Ill join if your that desperate, I can handle two projects at once. Just a question though, can I intigrate my dark Protoss into it and just call them something else?

[Skydragon222]

Yes you can. You still have to make a light terrans or something to go with it but thank you for joining

[Skydragon222]

hell yeah we are stickied. The fleet modding contest is closing down and we actually have a modder. This might actually work out. Thanks for stickying Ktan!!!

[raidmax]

K'tan is a cool guy, he'll do most anything for ya.


May I advise you I'm not going to start until we get one more person.

[andman3000]

If this modding contest doesn't have a theme then ill submit my infested terran mod.

Does it have to be a TC?

[Skydragon222]

andman we do have a theme plz read the first post. However you can still submit your mod.

Do you guys think I should remove a theme altogether.

[andman3000]

Well I geuss I can make a race a robot race. I did have it in mind.

[Skydragon222]

That would be pretty cool infestation vs. Robots even if we drop the theme you should do that.
So i guess we are lookinig at andman3000 vs. raidmax

with u238 and me judging

by the way u238 are you named after the starfighter or Uraniums most abundant isotope.

[U-238]

The latter actually. If you read starcraft trivia it's what 'rine shells are filled with to make them carry farther.

So you could say I'm a dead weight :P

[Holocaust]

'Sup.

I'll volunteer as a judge as well, even though I don't mod or play SC much anymore.

Y'gotta let a Veteran judge this ;D

Btw, July the 4th is too late of a deadline. People will forget or put it to the last minute then decide not to do it. Might I suggest a day in May?

[Skydragon222]

Well I'm glad your judging but if you look at the fleet contest its deadline was pushed ahead a few weeks and bam no one had anything ready to present. I might push it back to June if neccesary or perhaps i could just send private messages at intervals to remind them to work on it.

[raidmax]

Im already wonking on mine, I have the basic structure for the SSDF and the Venadir races done.

As for the deadline, I would say somewhere around... hmm May 20? At the latest June 1st.

[Skydragon222]

Raid if you think we should change it than maybe we should however we should hear from your opponent before we change the date to almost a month earliar

[andman3000]

Well I would like to do some Firegraft work on mine. So im putting my mod on hold until Firegraft comes out and im caught up in my school work because I just missed a week of school.

[Skydragon222]

Well if Andy wants to wait than i can't just chop off a month. Plus if we wait a few other people may want to enter in a mod.

[raidmax]

True, I'll just submit mine early then.

[Skydragon222]

Thank you for your flexibility raid. Also could both of you please submit the mod in EXE.form. Everyone likes those better

[andman3000]

Of course it will be in .exe.

Note: I may decide to fix some things in the terran race so I may work on it earlier

[Skydragon222]

Why is it that their are only two modders in this contest. We are in the maps and mods depot. Is literally everyone working on ROH or Starwars??? Anyway keep up the work. You have plenty of time so pace yourself and don't leave it all to the last minute.

[andman3000]

I have a suggestion. How about putting up the contest on Staredit.net? there are alot of modders there.

[Skydragon222]

thanks i posted there. I also asked the people in flame troopers modding group. Maybe we'll get a few new submissions now.

A person, named subfocus, on the Stareditnetwork is working on a mod that fits in nicely with the theme and sounds kind of cool. By my count are 3 mods are
Raidmax: dark vs. light on his upgrades mod
andman3000: robot vs. infested terrans
subfocus: elementals vs. robots

[andman3000]

mmm two robot races? This is going to be good.

I was also wondering if we can use some graphics that other people made. I have made some graphics myself like all the terran buildings and im probaly going to make some for all the protoss or zerg. (which ever I plan to mod)

Also im doing some units like some terran air units.

[U-238]

looking at the new guidlines I could almost add in my mod as an entry. But it's not quite inline with the rules. No big deal though.

*Sits back and judges*

[Razorstorm]

I think warboards is pretty crap for all projects and contests. No-one enters them and they simply die. I would have joined the fleet one because no-one else was entering and i might have stood a chance. But as it turned out I couldnt because my laptop got taken away by my mum. Sorry. It doesnt stand much of a chance but you get lukcy sometimes.

[Skydragon222]

Well I have thought about it for a long time so i am going to do several things

1. I decided that the theme will be bonus points and in the case that the judges reach a tie, the winner will be the one who stuck closest to the theme. (out of 100 points chances are ties will be rare.) the theme counts as +5 points just enough for a close tie but not enough to beat a superior mod.

2. Razorstorm every modding contest dies, but it dies because of changing due dates and changing themes.

3. I also am asking you to put AI's in your mods.

4. Finally razorstorm, you said you wanted to enter fleets, the theme has been relaxed and their's always room for one more.

[raidmax]

Shouldnt we put a "no firegraft usage" on this contest, becasue nobody here on warboards really has it.

BTW, im not doing light vs dark, its SSDF vs Venatir.

[Skydragon222]

IF no one has firegraft then it is implied.
Also does this mean you are not doing your dark protosss/upgrades mod?

I have given some thought on how to judge this contest and eventually decided on a plan that judges pretty fairly.

If you have any suggestions plz tell me.

MAX SCORE 725 points

Graphics 100 points I don’t want units to look the same way they did in starcraft make sure they look at least slightly new

Fun 175 points- pretty self explanatory

balance 100 points -your races have to be at least some what equal. I dont need a perfect match but they have to be able to fight for at least ten minutes.

originality- 100 Show me something new. You may copy your own mod designs and you may use grp's but dont show me anything someone else has done.

amount of modding 125- every unit modified at least slightly

bonus- 25 points the closer you are to the modding theme the more points you get in this category.

point detractions

you lose 30 points for everything you have in this category.

no computer AI
Wrong format (exe is the only one acceptable)
when downloading your mod a link to another site that requires you to sign up for a membership.

A perfect mod would be exe. with an AI and just left a download here that anyone could take.

IF you have quips about publicly showing your mod PM it to me.

Also U238 if you are half-minded to submitting your mod. DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! I could easily get a few more judges, but getting people to join this contest is hard. Submit your mod. I will find 3 new judges (In a perfect world I want 5 judges) and a ton of competitors.

I will put you in as a competitor

Judges
Skydragon
Holocaust

competitors
U238
raidmax
sub focus
andman3000

we actually look like a contest now.

judges

[raidmax]

When you say Computer AI, do you mean that the Ai has to be edited? Or just that the AI works with the mod?

[U-238]

Well, being as it's july 4th deadline then I suppose I might get 2 of the 3 races done by then. (maybe all 3 if I don't take the time to do wireframes. but then that would deduct points so meh.) Alright, consider me in.

[Skydragon222]

thank you U238 I am looking at 4 members and I guess i'm going to have to start looking for judges (don't worry I have an idea)

Also another member on staredit Lord Jeremy is considering joining. We don't have anything concrete yet, but their's hope.

[bobboy]

I WOULD do either one (judging or modding) but I'm running on Vista. And we all know its issues. *rolls eyes*

[andman3000]

OK OK ok. Firegraft should be releasing this month or next month so why not allow it?

[Skydragon222]

Firegraft is allowed as it will be realeasing soon. But And man so not entirely rely on it. Don't wait to the last minute before you start your mod.

[U-238]

btw, if anyone's interested in keeping up with my mod progress use the "click here" link in my sig. It'll take you to a page with concept art and screen shots. (In know most of the other entries in here have already been exposed and mine hasn't yet so I might as well start here.)

[raidmax]

Ha, your mod looks nuts:P Thats something to look forward to there;)

[Skydragon222]

We have several mods worth looking forward to.

Also for our Staredit users

Lord Jeremy wants to join the contest but is unsure if he will be ready before July

Sub focus hasn't confirmed whether or not he actually wants to be in the contest.

Anyway I am also looking or new judges and have started a thread asking for them If you know anybody who seems qualified let me know i'll PM them

[Skydragon222]

we have 5 memebers

Raidmax uprgades 2.0
Andman3000 infested terrans vs. robots
sub focus: elementals vs. machines
U-238 days of insanity
Lord Jeremy holy wars (macs vs LInux vs. windows

All 5 members are in it to win it

Holocaust and I are going to judge.


Also Submissions can be submitted as early as June 1st and as late as July 4th. You are under to obligation to submit any earliar than July 4th.

[andman3000]

I guess you can call mine SC:Infested War. Instead if Infested Terrans vs some robot race which I have to make up a name.

[LaserDude]

OK, I may try to make a mod, if I get the free time. I was thinking of making one called "Protoss Civil War". I may work on it, if I'm short of ideas for Armada, K?

[Razorstorm]

OK I was wrong. This is going great. I still think you should poll vote it but ILL judge it anyway.

[Skydragon222]

Kawagata has volunteered to judge as well (via pm).

Lazerdude im glad you joined.

6 modders
4 judges

this is better than i could have ever dreamed.]

By the way laserdude is a member of SEN.

[Skydragon222]

Razorstorm your idea is rather good but sadly not enough people want to vote. Also if we voted we wouldn't truly get the same kind of 1st 2nd 3rd 4th rating we would get if only the judges decided.
Some mods might get no votes and then we won't be able to tell which ones did better.

It works better if the judges average there scores.

[Kawagata]

so when is the deadline?

and before i really settle as a judge, you might want to take into account that i judge harder if a person used firegraft. I believe in skill and expierience not equipment.

[andman3000]

Well unless you want to downgrade, put a MPQ in you SC dictionary (which will probaly stay there forever, and then say how much memgraft is a pain.

Its not like Firegraft is some ultra powerful program that you could make a entire TC with just using it and not DatEdit and ICECC.

[Kawagata]

but firegraft adds a whole new dimension to the mod. it's just as in important as datedit, icecc and retrogrp. Now the person who is modding gets 4 tools instead of 3. That's 133% of the original. That gives them a very big boost.

[Skydragon222]

usage of Firegraft is allowed because when it comes out it will be open to everyone

Also the last possible day you can submit is JUly 4th you can however submit as early as June 1

Judging harder for firegraft isn't fair. However it is kawagata's opinion and as a judge he has a right to one. I personally will not judge harder depending on the tools you use.

But as for Razorstorm, Kawagata, and Holocaust they can judge you on their own scale.

[U-238]

personally I wouldn't go judging people as far as firegraft goes but would lean more towards how well the graphics were done. Firegraft is a button editor that has some exe editing capabilities. And most of those people wouldn't understand until a few months after it came out anyways. So, yea it'll be cool, but it's not somthing that's going to make your mod a total wazoo. (Maybe if editing the dat size restrictions was an easier thing to achieve and DoA implemented it it would be a thing to judge harder on. However it isn't and it's 95% set in stone that he's not going to do it.)

[Skydragon222]

Just to clear things up. Anyone can use firegraft. If one person downloaded it all of you have the oppurtunity to download it as well. If a judge wishes to be harsher if a person uses firegraft he may. It is his opinion that it is cheap so he can give the mod a lower score.

[Kawagata]

giving the mod a lower score is bad wording. i prefer judging to another scale. firegraft isn't public as far as i know.

[Skydragon222]

So basically you raise the bar for a mod with firegraft.

[Kawagata]

pretty much. if it's anything like memgraft then it should be hella useful.

[U-238]

One thing I should ask before I go any further is: "Will there be a size limit on the entries? (megabyte-wise)"

[andman3000]

I also have that same question because I can make it around 30-100mb if I add backround music.

[Holocaust]

I also have that same question because I can make it around 30-100mb if I add backround music.

To me, the essence of music for these mods aren't that important.
But if you manage to somehow get songs that really match it's race, I'll award you points for that.

[U-238]

You see, my point is, is that I'm currently estimating that this thing's going to weigh about 250 MB when completed enough for a beta. I might be able to shave that to just over 150 MB if I take out the music (it matches each race fairly well).

So it'll be a load. I'm just wondering if it's too big. If it is, just let me know and I'll withdraw my name and re-submit to judging if applicable.

[JarquaFelmu]

I know that I am a little late posting. And I know I have been away for awhile, but that doesn't mean that I have not been reading. Depending on U-238's decision then I would like to submit my name as a judge, if he goes judge. If not then I won't.

[andman3000]

So if my robtoic race has Mr.roboto in the backround then would it match?

[Kawagata]

for the first 5 minutes when it's funny then it'll get repetitive...

[Skydragon222]

Sorry I wasn't here yesterday. I don't care about the size of your mod. Background music isn't neccesarry but I would award you bonus points. (So now the scale is 800 points with 75 for cool stuff). Mr. Roboto would get a little annoying but I won't dock points for it.

Jarqua you statement was a little unclear. However U-238 is entering a mod.

Also Jarqua you are allowed to enter as either a modder or judge.

[Skydragon222]

upon further thinking perhaps you coul post two mods one with the music and one without.

[Holocaust]

So if my robtoic race has Mr.roboto in the backround then would it match?

Perhaps.
I'll play your mod with that song and see if it matches.

[Skydragon222]

By the way the new modding format is as follows

MAX SCORE 825 points

Graphics 100 points I don’t want units to look the same way they did in starcraft make sure they look at least slightly new

Fun 175 points- pretty self explanatory

balance 100 points -your races have to be at least some what equal. I dont need a perfect match but they have to be able to fight for at least ten minutes.

originality- 100 Show me something new. You may copy your own mod designs and you may use grp's but dont show me anything someone else has done.

amount of modding 125- every unit modified at least slightly

extra cool stuff- 100 if you add sometthing cool, say a new opening screen or perhaps some good background music you get points in this category.

bonus- 25 points the closer you are to the modding theme the more points you get in this category.

point detractions

you lose 30 points for everything you have in this category.


Wrong format (exe is the only one acceptable)
when downloading your mod a link to another site that requires you to sign up for a membership.

super detractions
-100 points
super glitchyness
crashes often
has anything largely racist
no computer AI

judges this is the judging we will adhere to.
we average our scores.

If we ever happen to come across a tie we vote on it.

If anyone thinks my judging has a few problems please tell me.

Also be sure to test your mod we will not accept a second submission because you changed something.

[andman3000]

So we will get points off for using other people's .grps? Thats how im getting all my robotic units:(

Buildings is a different thing. I do those myself.

[raidmax]

Indeed, unit GRP's are hard to do, (with the execption of the 17 frame ones) so do you think you should really judge on those? I can modify the colors on them, but thats about it.

[andman3000]

Ya you wont be seeing me edit a 400 frame unit. Only the 17 frames.

The bad thing is that I think the only protoss unit that has 17 frames is the carrier and probe.

[Skydragon222]

I'm sorry I didn't mean you couldn't use grp.s. I even said you could. What I meant was sort of like.

Raid max can use his upgrades design in his mod because he made upgrades.

However he can't use zerg doom in his mods because that is BST rhino's work.

If someone posted a grp it means they want people to use it.

Also andman I thought about it. And don't use mr. roboto in ur mod.

[raidmax]

Ya you wont be seeing me edit a 400 frame unit. Only the 17 frames.

The bad thing is that I think the only protoss unit that has 17 frames is the carrier and probe.
Shuttle, observer, and arbiter(i think) too.

I'm sorry I didn't mean you couldn't use grp.s. I even said you could. What I meant was sort of like.

Also andman I thought about it. And don't use mr. roboto in ur mod.
Ah, ok that clears it up.

[Holocaust]

Don't mind me posting a simplified version of the scoring system.

Graphics - 0/100

Playability - 0/175

Balance - 0/100

Originality - 0/100

Modding Amount - 0/125

Extra Effort - 0/100

Bonus - 0/25

~Overall~ - 0/825

[Skydragon222]

I like how you simplified it but don't forget the detractions

Also how is everyone doing on their mods. April is almost over so only two monthes left.

[andman3000]

Well I cant make up a name for my robotic race so I havn't done the tbling.
I made each unit robotic.
i only have 3 grpahics so far and Im not sure how im going to make the buildings.

So things aren't really going that great.

[LaserDude]

Well, things are going even worse for me. If you know how to make MPQDraft work with Windows Vista, can you please post it here (http://www.maplantis.org/index.php?topic=178). I'm not even going to get started on graphics until I can get GIMP working, and, I won't be able to test techtree changes until I can find a copy of SCDowngrader, so yeah, I'm pretty much screwed, for the time being.

EDIT: OK, things are getting slightly better. As I promised before, I'll work on it if I run out of ideas for Armada.

[raidmax]

Well, things are going even worse for me. If you know how to make MPQDraft work with Windows Vista, can you please post it here (http://www.maplantis.org/index.php?topic=178). I'm not even going to get started on graphics until I can get GIMP working, and, I won't be able to test techtree changes until I can find a copy of SCDowngrader, so yeah, I'm pretty much screwed, for the time being.
Tehnicly, you dont need MPQ draft to make a SEMPQ, just dl a mod, open it with winmpq, and erase everything except for the listfile. Then, you just put stuff into it like you would normaly do. Though MPQdraft is easier, at least this way you dont need it.

My mod is going ok, I am about a quarter way done with the SSDF, and about a fifth with the Venatir.

[Skydragon222]

Well ok I'll se how the seners are doing later. BTW Laserdude I didn't realise MPQ draft didn't work with vista. If you want to submit an mpq i could make an exception in your case.

Note seners are users of SEN

[LaserDude]

Oh, I thought you saw the strike. No, I was using an out-of-date version, and it didn't work. The not-out-of-date version I got work perfectly.

[JarquaFelmu]

Jarqua you statement was a little unclear. However U-238 is entering a mod.

Also Jarqua you are allowed to enter as either a modder or judge.

For my own reasons I believe it to be only fair that I enter as U-238 enters concerning the judging. If he ends up submitting the mod then I do not want to have biased feeling towards other mods because of it. However if he does end up not submitting the mod for any reason then I will happily be a judge.

[Skydragon222]

I'm sorry but chances are he is submitting a mod. However two things

1. Why would you be biased??

2. I notice your sig shows a modding project that has been completed. this might be a chance to show off your modding skills.

3. If you don't want to mod then you could always not place an entry on U-238's mod. We could just have 4 people submit their.

[U-238]

Ya you wont be seeing me edit a 400 frame unit. Only the 17 frames.

The bad thing is that I think the only protoss unit that has 17 frames is the carrier and probe.

3d graphics FTW!

I'm sorry but chances are he is submitting a mod. However two things

1. Why would you be biased??

2. I notice your sig shows a modding project that has been completed. this might be a chance to show off your modding skills.

3. If you don't want to mod then you could always not place an entry on U-238's mod. We could just have 4 people submit their.

Just let it drop. The reason he'd be biased is because he's already seen it and is helping me with some of the voicing (for unit variation). Being as I fully intened to submit my work the chances of him judging are slim at best.

[Skydragon222]

He can still judge the 5 other mods.

Also Lazerdud I would like to know if you are in. I don't want people to think that it is ok to leave.

[LaserDude]

I'm sorry, but I don't know for sure. I've got a major modding project already in the works. If my ideas tap runs dry for it, then I'll work on this one. I'm kinda' in between a bit.

[Skydragon222]

So it's a 100% definite maybe

[andman3000]

Hey would you mind if we posted some screenshots? Just to see how we are doing.

[Skydragon222]

I would love screen shots. I had half a mind to ask for them but I didn't want to pressure you guys. I would love to see your work.

Alsi I'm going to regret this but Raidmaz what is SSDF

[andman3000]

Well I dont have any gameplay shots yet, I only have a shot of the new probe.
http://uploader.polorix.net//files/381/probes.bmp

[Skydragon222]

Cool anyone else wanna show their stuff

[Razorstorm]

Bloody awsome!

[U-238]

Here's a few of the latest version of mine.

The last one is just for shits and giggles. Done while I was "experimenting" :P

[Skydragon222]

I am proud to say that the thread has broken a thousand views. With 5 maybe 6 modders in the running we are well on our way to being the first successful modding contest on warboards.

The screenshots are really great guys keep it up. I'm glad you are keeping up on your projects. Also remember to do a little bit each day.

I recently learned that on SEN there is an entire forum dedicated to contests. I may put something there if the site comes back soon.

[raidmax]

Just a few screenies. (zerg are unused in this mod, I am using them as the Venatir Ally.)
7178717971807181

[Skydragon222]

Well It looks like all 3 of you have started your mods.

If any of you guys know someone who can mod tell tehm about the contest. With SEN down I have no way of knowning if sub focus and lord jeremy are still in.

[JarquaFelmu]

Hey Raid and U-238, nice jobs on your mods. This is going to be awesome:D *cackles gleefully*^^

[Skydragon222]

Indeed it is. Hey Jarqua you absolutely sure you don't want to enter a mod of your own in this contest. It would make it even better.

[Holocaust]

Talk about strange looking units.

[raidmax]

Lol, U-238's mod is probably going to win. I honestly cant wait to see your mod:P But mine will come in second! /humerous bragging

[JarquaFelmu]

Lol, I would but I have to much school and other projects going on that I just don't have anytime to work on another mod. Also I can't draw worth beans *tear* lol.

[andman3000]

Ugg so jealous of U-238's blender skill.

I honestly have no idea where im going to get the rest of my graphics.

[Skydragon222]

y'know it's odd my money would have been on raidmax winning. By the way don't rule out SEN. They still pack a punch.

[raidmax]

Really? My money's on u-238. Im not sure, but subfocus is very good too, so he may come in second. And me third :P... I hope....

Btw, +25 bonus points:P
7200

[andman3000]

Dam uber jealous of the main menu. again.

[Skydragon222]

I'm thinking of sending an email to subfocus to see how he is doing. Also does anyone know how long SEN will be down. I have no way of contacting lord jeremy except through SEN.

Also people no longer say who you have your bets on. You will all be judged objectively (as if i didn't know you). Saying who you have your money on means you are resigning yourself to losing. If you quit because another mod looks better than i will find you and do to you what Morgan Le Fay did to Vlad Dracula

Next thin you know is that skydragon is going to get someone to chain us to our computers and make sure these mods are finished.:(

[Kawagata]

i propose that the mods be shown to judges without names so it is more professional.

[U-238]

100% on the money. Resigning yourself to losing is like giving up on a war you had a change of winning. I'm highly flattered that you like my mod however it does have some downsides. (Like I currently don't have a cool mainscreen like raids mod does). Ya'll have just as much chace of winning as anyone else entered.

[Skydragon222]

Oh come on he won't chain you to your computers. Oh but i recommend not doing anything that involves leaving the state.

Also I see what Kawagata is saying but we know what the mods look like. We have seen screen shots, past versions, and names of the mods entered in the contest. There is no way that you would be unable to tell Days of Insanity from Holy Wars. However I think that maybe all mods should be PM'd to me so that I can distribute them to the other 3 judges.

[Spoonman]

Interested in judging.

[LaserDude]

Well, I got GIMP working, so I've been working on ripping my beta sprites (I just LOVE the look of the beta pylon and stargate). I've been trying to get SCDowngrader to work. When I get it going, I'll get going.

[andman3000]

Where do you get the beta buildings. Besides the ones that are in the DLDM(i think) at SEN.

[LaserDude]

The ones in SEN's DLDB are nothing important. You can find them if you search through StarDat.mpq hard enough. The ones I'm going for I'm ripping from beta screenshots. I got the beta screenshots here (http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Comet/2481/beta.html)

[Skydragon222]

Spoonman I'm glad to have you on board. This makes 5 judges and hopefully 6 modders.

I now realise that you guys can't post your mods because they would be too large. Because of the revelation I figure that you would have to email them to me. I'll distribute my email adress to you via PM at a later date. judges you can distribute your email whenever.

EDit oh wait you could just click email skydragon. However please email me your addreses.

[raidmax]

Or we could upload them to www.filefront.com (http://www.filefront.com) which has unlimited storage/filesize.

[JarquaFelmu]

Depending on the size. I can offer my server as well. I can store up to 10mb and it has unlimited uploads/downloads so just let me know what you want done.

[Skydragon222]

Jarqua would you be able to make it so that your server only allows the judges/competitors to access it???

Also raidmax as much as I like your idea that would make it so that anyone could access the mods before we could give the results.

[U-238]

So? Who really gives a shit? If my mods finished (or done enough for my satisfaction) I plan on releasing it whenever I choose before the deadline or not. Just because a mod's in a contest doesn't mean that other people can't download and enjoy it until you say it's OK.

[JarquaFelmu]

Jarqua would you be able to make it so that your server only allows the judges/competitors to access it??? Yes I would beable to give access to only a few people because I would have to give out the url's so I would only pm the urls.

Also raidmax as much as I like your idea that would make it so that anyone could access the mods before we could give the results. It would only be open to the public if the url's of the individual mods were to be released. As it is, the method would be no different then how my server operates.

So? Who really gives a shit? If my mods finished (or done enough for my satisfaction) I plan on releasing it whenever I choose before the deadline or not. Just because a mod's in a contest doesn't mean that other people can't download and enjoy it until you say it's OK. I completely agree with U-238. While this contest gives a means to the mods it does not justify the ends of which you speak. Any and absolutly everyone should have access to the mods as soon as they are released because they would be in their final form, there would be no more changes. Even so, just because you are the leader of this contest does not give you the keys and therefore the power over the distribution of the final copies. The ownership lies solely in the power of the creators and thereby also does the power of distributing the said mods.

I do not seek for power, but to pull it down.

[Skydragon222]

Fine. I give in. YOu can realease your mods whenever but you must submit a version to me so I know which one is in the countest.

However Jarqua is their anyway people would be able to discuss the mods over your site. That way the judges could discuss what they want to say without people being able to know who wins.

[andman3000]

Why cant you use PMs?

Also im having a bit of a modding block.

[LaserDude]

I'm sorry, but my mod is going even slower than a snail's pace. I've ripped a few sprites, but that's about it.

[andman3000]

Same here dude. Same here. If your looking for a name for your race check up some greek mythology and find some names there.

I think that once I start getting school work done in class I might be able to finish my mod.

[JarquaFelmu]

However Jarqua is their anyway people would be able to discuss the mods over your site. That way the judges could discuss what they want to say without people being able to know who wins. Yes, that would be fine. I'll set up a forum for that and we can discuss the mods.

[Skydragon222]

Good. By the way don't tell the competitors the url so that they can't spy on their scores. Thx Jarqua you rock.

[JarquaFelmu]

I'll pm the forum url to you skydragon and then you can then distrubute it to who needs it. Also I'll go one step further of preventing anyone from even seeing the site if they're not approved.

[Skydragon222]

Thanks Jarqua.

All judges i need you to post here that you understand that you can't distribute this url.

oh and lazerdude if you say that you aren't making much progress does that mean you are in????

[Holocaust]

Thanks Jarqua.

All judges i need you to post here that you understand that you can't distribute this url.

oh and lazerdude if you say that you aren't making much progress does that mean you are in????

Uh sure, but why would we anyway?
It's not like these mods are licensed and copyrighted.

[Skydragon222]

Posting here is so that if you do spill the beans you will receive a warning. Also you're right the mods aren't copyrighted but are decision process should be secret and we should make the winner a surprise.

[JarquaFelmu]

Everyone don't worry about posting any agreement here. Skydragon. You don't worry about the posting. Once again, do not over step yourself. I am perfectly able of preventing anyone but the judges from seeing senstive information so do not alieniate the members of this contest any more. It is not good for business.

[Razorstorm]

Im judging for sure. Mum still wont give my laptop back but i can do it at school. I like andmans3000 idea. sounds great.
btw site please?

[JarquaFelmu]

Not done yet, still working on it.

[Skydragon222]

Yo good job jarqua. Now that we can freely discuss it we are now accepting mod submissions.

THe deadline is still July 4th but you can send it in early if you truly feel that you are ready.

[U-238]

Wait a sec. Which deadline is the real one? July 4th (in the first post) or the 24th? That's a significant time difference there.

[Skydragon222]

My bad i accidentally added a 2. woops

It is july 4

[Holocaust]

...July?
I thought it was June, and even that was excessive.

People don't need this long just to make a mod. Seriously.

[andman3000]

How about people trying to get lives?
I have hardly done any work since the contest started.

[Holocaust]

How about people trying to get lives?
I have hardly done any work since the contest started.

Even if you are burdened by the events in your life, you should be able to find a little time to work on it. At least a bit everyday.

People have a tendency to slack off when modding with longer deadlines, so that's why I suggest a shorter one.

If one is way too busy to work on the mod due to extremly important things such as studying for an exam, why participate in the first place?

[andman3000]

Because I have it half finished.

And when I mean by having a life I mean going outside. Not studying.

[Holocaust]

Because I have it half finished.

And when I mean by having a life I mean going outside. Not studying.

Of course.
When I said "If one doesn't have enough time," I didn't say you were studying. It was a general example.

[Skydragon222]

This contest is scheduled for July 4th so we can get mods that are tested and worth playing.

Also Flametrooper has volunteered to judge which means we have a total of six judges.

[raidmax]

Yay, I got my UNDF air force done!
7270
Like it?

[Skydragon222]

Great job raid. But I'm afraid I am a bit offended by your quote. Magnus lives a half mile away from you

[U-238]

[raidmax]

Heh, cool! Nice job so far.

[andman3000]

I think I'm going to cry of U-238's graphics.

Its so, beautiful.

[MidnightGladius]

You ain't seen nothing yet, andman. His other project had me going OMFGWTFASDF!!!, and not because it sucked :P

[JarquaFelmu]

And which project would this be?;). Does Middy know things that no one else does?:smirk:

[raidmax]

I think its obvious that u-238 wins. Resistance shall be in vain. So, on this matter, I declare 2nd place to be the new first place! and first place to be.... 0th place.

Add:
Yay! Have no fear, Venatir attack drones are here! (As well as the new console)
7276

[Skydragon222]

First off Raid don't give yourself in to defeat. Remember graphics are just one category. And once again I am offended by your sig. Magnus would insure that if you two were battling you would be alone.

[MidnightGladius]

Mind explaining why his sig is offensive? I think I'm missing something, because it doesn't seem offensive at all, to me.

[andman3000]

Me to.

haha guys you better watch out. My close personal friend and I have learned the very basics of Blender. So watch out for our graphics.

I think I will do some major work in my mod this week.

[raidmax]

I dont get it, why is my sig offensive? Its a space battle with a quote that says "prepare for battle comrades"

Anyway, my opinion on 3d stuff, is well, to be honest, I dont like it. It looks really crappy, (however good the model is) in a game with normal SC graphics next to it. Its GREAT when you do EVERY unit that is used, but they just dont fit if you only change one thing.

[Holocaust]

Uh. Yeah.
I'ma have to agree with everyone on this one.

"Prepare for battle comrades", isn't offensive at all. Unless you're a pacifist?

All the units and menu frames look a little weird, except for maybe the modified Terrans. They look normal. :P

[U-238]

The actual reason behind this (meaning I thought that too at one time) is that they look "abnormal" because they're not origanal or as our eyes first conceived them. If I were to hand you a copy of starcraft for the first time (meaning you'd never played it nor seen it before in your life) and had the vulture replaced with a unit I made then, a few years later, gave you the REAL copy you'd think that the vulture looked weird. It's preconception. Graphic changes period look "weird" to people when they've been playing with normal units all their lives. people even think that graphic changes like you make seem "weird", believe me I know. (not specificly sighting your graphic changes.)

Indeed. Although, people may say the SC based units fit more than 3D ones because they have been playing SC all their life. And heck, I even think my units look "weird" But all I was trying to say, is that 3D doesnt really fit with normal ones, unless you make EVERYTHING 3D-based.

[Skydragon222]

Raid It's a running joke. I'm implying that I have a guy named MAgnus stalking you so that you finish your mods.

[raidmax]

Oh... sure didnt sound like a joke. Your suppoesd to hint a little sarcasim with those things:P
and im about 70% done with my mod.

[Skydragon222]

I do it every time you change your sig. Also is anybody else almost odne with thier mods.

[U-238]

And the regular units were?

...modeled in 3ds max 3 and rendered using the internal scanline renderer. (although mentalray 1.0 might have been used as well.)

All I'm saying is, is that what's preconceived as "normal" looks "normal" once changed however it becomes "weird".

Also is anybody else almost odne with thier mods.

Not even close. In fact I'm contemplating dropping out of this one.

[Skydragon222]

Don't worry you have plenty of time.

[U-238]

Actually time isn't my main concern. My presence in this little contest seems to have put a damper on the moods of the contestants. I know my mod will invoke interest even if it doesn't appear in a contest however I don't want people giving up/not get around to their projects because they don't think they can win. I'm not trying to brag on myself but am just looking out for the best of the contest. I'd like to see a close finish.

The second thing is time. Even though JU4 is a ways away it's already got me taking shortcuts I really shouldn't be taking. I want this production to be a very enjoyable one that will have people coming back to it years after it's release and taking shortcuts isn't something that will work for those long term goals nor the short ones. Heavy increase in wieght has already become apparent (currently riding near 13 MB without most of the soundfx, music, and campaign maps input.)

As I said I want this production to be one that people will not only say "wow he did a nice job" but one that will get people inspired saying "hey! space themed games don't mean that mods have to be space themed!" and I also want one where, years down the road, people can say "hey! wanna play a few rounds of the DoI mod?" "Sure! I love playing DoI!" So, with that I'm planning on taking my time. If the deadline of the contest or the moral of the other modders particapating becomes a problem then I'll willingly drop myself from the list. (and one less contestant isn't going to make a huge difference in judges eyes. It's just one less person's mod they have to dl and deal with. :p)

[raidmax]

You know, your mod doesnt have to be 100% done to submit it, you can leave some things out, and just finish it all later.
And your not hurting my morale, as I said, we will just make 2nd place first place. :P But please, stay in, I honestly dont care if I lose, all the mods we are making are going to be great, knowing that, there is no "winning" or "losing"

[Dark_hunter4]

Ok guys I've been silent throught this cause I didn't want to feel really stupid, and now is the time for me to speak.First, U-238 who says your going to be first? And secondly If your afriad of making people drop out because you mod is WTFPWNSORS!!! then post it at the last possible minute and you will have nothing to fear. And 3rdly why drop out once you've already almost reached that size? If you got that far, then keep going, it should turn out fine. If it doesn't well.. thats another story...
Btw I think this is the longest post I've made for 2-4 months...

[Skydragon222]

Thank you dark hunter!!!! That pretty much somes up what I feel about this affair. Also on a more personal note U-238 plz change your sig and avatar back.

[U-238]

Thank you for missreading my entire post.

(A) I never said I was going to be 1st.
(B) I personaly don't think my mod's any greater than anyone elses.
(C) I stated that people moral seemed to be dropping some because of me.
(D) If I did exit the contest I would still complete production of the mod.

Also on a more personal note U-238 plz change your sig and avatar back.

Funkay Fiaa stays weather you like it or not. :P

[Skydragon222]

Look U-238 stuffing someone in a sack with a cougar and then tossing it underwater is totaly uneth... oh wait. Sorry I misread that. Anyway please do not quit the contest. We truly only know that four people are in the contest. (Since we can't check on the people at SEN).

Also everyone else we have a forum set up for judging so submit the second you feel that you are ready.

[JarquaFelmu]

Look U-238 stuffing someone in a sack with a cougar and then tossing it underwater is totaly uneth... oh wait. Sorry I misread that. I have only one thing to say... "Whaaatt?!":)

[Skydragon222]

Umm in case you haven't seen the thread SEN is dead. Does anyone know how we could communicate wiht sub focus and Lord Jeremy

[LaserDude]

Sorry to say this, but I'm pretty much out. I haven't even started, and I've got a major modding project in the works, as well as a large mapping project. As well as making GRPs for nanite wars, and, I've gotta do the end-of-the-year push. I've got loads of homework, and just, I won't be able to participate in this. Sorry.

[Skydragon222]

Throws stuff at wall while sputing obscenities

Oh well that't the way it goes. We still have the other three mods to look forward to. As for my contacting the SENers problem any ideas??

[U-238]

Nope. Unless someone here kept in contact with them and kows their email or something you can pretty much put them as "out" for now. (and if they are still in then they'll supprise you. :p)

[Skydragon222]

I guess you're right. If any of you guys see a name in a forum with Sub Focus or Lord Jeremy tell me or tell them to look at this thread.

[Dark_hunter4]

(A) I never said I was going to be 1st.

Ok, I misworded that, that first one was directed mainly towards Raidmax, who says that he wasn't going to get fist... my bad U


(B) I personaly don't think my mod's any greater than anyone elses.

Thats good news, everyone always says theirs is CRAP, to see someone say, Meh its ok, makes me happy!


(C) I stated that people moral seemed to be dropping some because of me.

Probably because they are scared, from thinking that your mods are so much sickinging ownage that they think: OMFG I CAN'T COMPARE WITH THAT!!! RUN AWAY!!!!


(D) If I did exit the contest I would still complete production of the mod.

Finally, someone to finish, contest or no!! (Sry to all those decent people out there, you have my grats as well)

Thank you for missreading my entire post.

Your welcome :P .

[Spoonman]

hey, whats the url for the sub-forum to sign up for judging?

[Skydragon222]

I sent you a PM about 2 weeks ago check your inbox. '

The url is secret so it was sent via PM

[DarkMirror]

Can I judge?

[andman3000]

BTW Darkmirror. Why did you want to try out my mod?

And did you get my mod?

[DarkMirror]

Sounded cool. And yes i did, but I havnt had time to test yet.

[andman3000]

Well I hope it isn't a version that would crash but probaly not. I'll send you an updated version if I get the time to update it.

[raidmax]

I think Darkmirror should judge. You do have one space open Skydragon, right?

[Skydragon222]

First off Darkmirror can judge. Second off there is no space for judging. I hoped for 5 judges but that doesn't mean I won't accept more.

Darkmirror expect a PM Soon.

[Holocaust]

There are more judges than modders.

Good game.

[JarquaFelmu]

roflcopter. This is going to get interesting.

[Skydragon222]

Just to remind you guys. You only have about a month left on your mods. also tell me if you see anyone named lord jeremy or subfocus on a starcraft forum. How are your mods coming along any way.

[U-238]

Well, as jarqua put it: It'll be interesting. However, due to a lack of time recently amongst other issues I've decided that I will no longer be able to participate in this little contest. As such I'm withdrawing my name from the pool. I've fallen too far behind schedule with a recent influx of events and I'd really rather not release anything to anyone that doesn't meet my satisfactory standards. (as a friend put it: I don't want to see a mod "half done or done halfly".) I'm not halting production but it'll take a little longer than planned. But a release will happen! Right now I'm looking for late summer/early to mid fall as a release providing all goes well. (After all, when "frank" gets here I'll have close to 0 time available for a few weeks.)

So I wish luck to all the remaining modders who are still in and I can't wait to see the resulting mods. :)

[andman3000]

Ya im worried I wont finish. Ill try but Im not sure.

[Dark_hunter4]

Well, this was, rather, um....

I would like to be a judge for this thing, uh when exactly is it?

[Andvari]

I have not posted for awhile, I am still working on my first few stages of making mods, i have amde a few cool ones but my big main block is grp (unit or building) editing. Maybe someoen could help me out with a custom tut because i have tried all the current and i still get stuck modding..

I dont mind being a Judge if u need another. But i could be a modder also, but with my skills and the time remaining, dont plan on anything half as good as these other guys.

:D Cheezer

btw, what does "has great potential" mean next to my posts?

[U-238]

It's your rep title. It'll change as your rep points increase.

[Andvari]

+rep i guess. Thanks for the Info. I didnt know. How do i check my total all around rep?

[Holocaust]

In your user CP.

Wow, 7 judges and what, 2 mods?

[raidmax]

Actually, I think im the only one still in.

[Dark_hunter4]

Heh, that could be very interesting, cheers :cool:

[Skydragon222]

Andvari you could still enter. DOes anyone want to work with him (or her) in making a mod. Peraps some other modder needs help.

[raidmax]

DOes anyone want to work with him (or her)
Im a guy.

[Skydragon222]

I was talking about andvari.

[reverb102]

dr. reverb is in the office his precription... grps for mods!... and my other grps get a re-post... oops wrong thread.

[andman3000]

Wait, I could really use those .grps. Are you using them for this contest? May I use them?

[Dark_hunter4]

Fear the .grps!!

[reverb102]

you can, andman you can.

[andman3000]

Hurray!!!! I may still have a chance.

[raidmax]

O rly now? Im using two of those GRP's. The machines one is now the UNDF defense tower. And Protoss 4 is now the stargate. (also recolored to fit the Venatir color scheme)

[reverb102]

still neither way you still have a chance

[Dark_hunter4]

PH33R THE JUDGINGS!!!
No, but seriously, when is it?

[andman3000]

The deadline? I think July 4th or something.

BTW I have sent a beta version to SC.org. I think its still being checked or whatever.

[raidmax]

Sc.org's customs section is up???!!?? FINALLY!!!!!

[reverb102]

sweet.

[Dark_hunter4]

Woot, still won't get me completely out of maps and mods :P!!

[raidmax]

Oh yeah, judges, I released a beta if you want a look at it, just go to this (http://www.warboards.org/showthread.php?p=476571#post476571) thread

[shaggydavid]

im sure you have seen the posts for omega. the mod is going beautifully. with the help of a few others we have put together something that i think fits the guidlines. all races are in the process of being changed all the wire frames and buttons as well. the balance of the races are also being changed.
the story line for the game is being written and im looking for mappers to help with the campaign. please check the progress of the tc thanks.

I think he may have simply been expressing an interest in joining the contest, but Holo does have a point, make sure that's the only reason you are posting about your mod; because you intend to join.

Bad news.

I now have to announce that my mod will not be finished.

I just didn't feel like working on it. I felt that I had to finish by July 4th. Do I care about the deadline?

NO.

I will finish the mod when im ready and that will probaly be in the fall.


Anyway... wheres Skydragon?

[U-238]

hmm, seems as if this has sorta failed.


*starts working on his new contest idea....*

[raidmax]

Well... Since that leaves me, I guess this failed. That is unless shaggydavid enters with his omega mod.

[shaggydavid]

we have put together something that i think fits the guidlines. im in the runnung. i will have most if not all the changes done to the TC

[andman3000]

Well what about U-238's mod? Did I miss something?

I forgot to mentain that I will still be submiting my mod to the contest but im not going to expect to win.

[U-238]

What you "missed". (http://www.warboards.org/showpost.php?p=470930&postcount=191)

[andman3000]

I sopose I forgot:)

[Skydragon222]

I'm back (i was on vacation) Omega you can enter the contest.

So i guess we have 3 mods again

Also U-238 about your new contest idea. It would be a shame if there was an accident involving a fruit smoothie, an elaphant, and six weeks in the mojave desert.

[JarquaFelmu]

Also U-238 about your new contest idea. It would be a shame if there was an accident involving a fruit smoothie, an elaphant, and six weeks in the mojave desert......Huh? Was that supposed to be a threat or a joke?

[Skydragon222]

that was neither a threat nor a joke i'm just mentioning that it would be bad if that happened. (chuckles to himself)

Also U-238 you wer originally a judge in this contest do you still want to be a judge.

[Dark_hunter4]

I'm going to have to resign as a judge, got a nice little map project going on and it's been leeching my time away. Sorry guys, look forward to using the mods though.

[Holocaust]

that was neither a threat nor a joke i'm just mentioning that it would be bad if that happened. (chuckles to himself)


...
Still don't get it. ;_;

I'm resigning as judge. This thing dragged on for way too long, and I'm getting bored. Yes, I know it's only days away from the deadline, but I also forgot that I uninstalled SC months ago.

[U-238]

that was neither a threat nor a joke i'm just mentioning that it would be bad if that happened. (chuckles to himself)

you've no idea of what I've got in mind.... *evil grin*

Also U-238 you wer originally a judge in this contest do you still want to be a judge.

Give me the count of mod - judges and I'll think about it.

[shaggydavid]

on the 4th or sooner where or who exactly are we sending them to?

[Skydragon222]

I would reccomend posting them in a public site. Or if you are paranoid you can email it to me at Skydragon222@gmail.com


Posted on July 4th

The lord has come to day to check upon the progress of the Earth and see that it is good Mark 4: 15

Yeah i just made that up. But still contest due date is over. You have 3 days to send in your mod. Also stop using the phonebook as your personal onomasticon. It's just disgusting
