Ideas for next texturing competitions

(not from an official mod, but I doubt that's a problem)

I suggest a certain model this time... maybe the arachnathid.

Hmmmz...A model limit would make it easier to judge/vote for.

Perhaps a choice of models.

Like Goblin Sappers, and the Mortar dwarves?

I support the thesis that the next texturing compo should be, in fact, the UI competition.

UI competition would be cool, could be nice with some nice UI's to choose from as currently there is like 2-3 or something.

UI sounds great.

Hmmmz...About how difficult would a UI competition be?...Would we be modifying one texture (a few)? Or ten (alot)?

/waits for Pyrite to find this thread and demand the UI competition

But I think UI seems like a different competition, just like animating and modeling competitions are different.

UI would be interesting
HOWEVER, that is ALOt of work
Unless you have made a UI before, your in for a treat
I head alphas on those can be nightmares
But I salute all who want this for your good hardwork..ness?
....yea

I have looked into doing UI before. There are several textures to it. You can put them all together. Texture em then cnp them back into their original pieces then alter alpha. I suggest someone ask Umwirklich (damn his crazy name) to make a small tut that would be linked to the competition rules. Also, seing as how all this might be tricky and take contestants a little time to understand how to do it, I think there should be a preliminary week to week and a half. Contestants would do simple modifications (or however much they want to) and import them into the game. If they are having trouble, then other contestants who have figured out how to do it or the contests host, could help them out.

Why didn't you just stick all these files in a zip file?

Why not just do a christmas themed texturing contest?

I would say a combination of the model contest and texture contest.

Make a model...and skin it.

Loads of fun.

You could call it..The Twelve Verticies of Christmas Competition....or something more clever than that.

Cause my lazziness told me to.

Elenai, a lot of people who skin cant model, but a lot of people who model can't skin...

Ironic that I can do both...MWUAHAHAHAHA!
