Architecture contest
Architecture contest
ContentsTheme
Each contestant must create a part of cityscape using the ultimate terraining map. The part should contain at least 3 buildings and an unlimited number of additional areas. Filling the whole map is not an imperative.
Rules- - At least 3 buildings must be assembled
- - Only ultimate terraining map can be used
- - Custom imports may be allowed but they must first be made available for all contestants
- - Your final submission must contain an image of your cityscape from bird's perspective and a physically attached map
- - This is not an artistic terrain so both visible and invisible walls, windows, anything must be placed in the map
Criteria
| Criteria | Description | Marks | | Overall impression | The overall look of your cityscape | /5 | | Functionality | Well, people do not feel like walking around an entire block just to reach their first neighbour | /5 | | Realism | This refers to warcraft 3 realism. Copying the architecture of any warcraft race is allowed yet buildings must be assembled logically | /5 | | Precision | As you all know, precision is of great importance in architecture, your buildings should stand up straight | /5 | | Skill | Complexity of your buildings is important as it represents your skills as an architect | /10 | | Design | The choice of materials and their assembly, a very important criterion | /10 |

Well, the fact that it's floating is w3 realistic but if a part of the building is floating for no good reason(eg. poor doodad aiming), that spoils the realism and/or precision. Generally, realism refers to the way buildings are constructed, not their position or whatever. Yeah, the explanation is kinda blurry, i'll rephrase that.

Just a little confused.
What do you mean by.
- This is not an artistic terrain so both visible and invisible walls, windows, anything must be placed in the map

That confused me too, Black. Steel, it's meant to be like so that if you're making some city, your 1st floor isn't floating in the air and with windows blocked out by pillars and no door or something like that, I think.

It means that you are not allowed to make 2 walls and a roof and claim that you've made a building using 'it's whole from this point of view' argument. Quite simple.

I loathe the ultimate terraining map, but it is quite an okay idea.

Actually someone like myself would have to host it. With the Terraining Contest still in progress we cannot start this. In the idea thread for the next competition you may want to bring this up.
