Campaign Contest #1 - Free theme

[bounty hunter2]

I always am. xD

Anyway I still am not sure was the submision of that guy for real or a practical joke.

 

[Paladon]

I think it´s a joke.
And i´m in, officially.

 

[Sabertooth]

Yes, competition.

EDIT:
Yes, WIP of the first map screenshot. I can count a map smaller than 96x96 (technically) as a full chapter, right?

 

[Kwah]

I believe so.

 

[bounty hunter2]

Seems nice Saber and inetersting.

 

[Septimus]

Next time such a contest is held: Give a lot of time, allow teams and definitely set a minimum quality in order to get a prize at all. Right now you better give no reward then giving a reward to a campaign that somebody worked on for 5 minutes.

At least 3 months have been provided. Naturally before the contest being held, I have request Hawkwing to have the contest duration for 6 month. But, it been denied due to the long term and anything could happen at the moment.

 

[Aeroblyctos]

I had this kind of "campaign competition" before in here. We had two months time. Currently I'm the only one still doing a campaign and I have been doing it like 15 month. Campaigns just are campaigns... It takes like 10,000 hour to finish or something.

That is why I was at the first against this kind of contest. I even joined to this but after 1 month I left. It's just too much.

 

[bounty hunter2]

I have an idea for this one. Since I am done with my cinematic for the cinematic contest I will give this a shoot.

 

[Linaze]

One idea would be for everyone who wishes to be in this to submit what they got so far at the deadline date despite if it's finished or not, make a poll about it where the winner, 2nd and 3rd placers get minor rep awards but no award icon. Then in a possible Campaign Contest #2, it'd be a follow-up of the first contest, allowing for another 3 months in the (near?) future, since people seem tired of this atm, but might be more dedicated after Christmas etc.

 

[bounty hunter2]

But second and third place don't get an icon anyway. I think this is fine, I have time to make my maps but the biggest problem is the motivation.

Linaze your idea seems okay but what with people who want to take place in the second contest but didn't take part in the first. They would need to work much more on their maps as they have to begin from scratch.

 

[Linaze]

Hmmz, you speak the truth, those who join the second one would have less time to work on their campaign than those who started already in the first one. The only solution I see to this is to only allow people who were in the first to even be able to join the second.
Perhaps it shouldn't be called "Campaign Contest #2", but "Campaign Contest #1 Continuation" or so.

Maybe we should stop here and continue smaller projects, contests which relate to another contests won't be fair anymore and it would totally suck.

There is no other solution imho.

 

[bounty hunter2]

That would suck thou. People would like to join the second contest and bam : If you didn't participate in the first one you can't join this one :/

But I think that this contest will probably have a couple of submisions so there is no need to continue it in a another 3 month period. Another contest yes, continue this one, no. Atleast by my opinion.

Read my comment before.

 

[bounty hunter2]

Ah I was writting my comment and then when I posted it I saw your one. Didn't feel like deleting mine thou.

Hehe but we thought exactly the same thats cool

 

[bounty hunter2]

That is cool, well you know what they say, great minds think the same xD

QFT man

 

[FamousPker49]

How about you two get a room somewhere in off topic and make out?

Either way, there may always be some more entries than you may expect.

 

[NiddHogg-kun]

Let me in.
I will make my first campaign but it will be good i hope.

 

[Avator]

I don't expect that many entries. If you want to save the time limit issue and the continue previous campaign idea, the only thing you can do is allow people to enter with campaigns they've already started before the contest, but haven't submitted anywhere before. Ofcourse the chance that'll happen is close to zero...

 

[Pyritie]

I had this kind of "campaign competition" before in here. We had two months time.

Yeah, that was a challenge, not a contest. It was between you, K@T@R or something, and one or two other guys.

 

[Mechanical Man]

Rofl K@T@R. Is D@B@R actually

 

[Pyritie]

Lol, whatever.

 

[FrozenInfernal]

Wip

Heres a screen shot-

 

[Kwah]

Do not use image shack. - Get it?

 

[DarkePacific]

I am leaving the contest! Sorry to tell everyone, however I will be entering the second campaign contest, as soon as it is hosted! =D

 

[Hawkwing]

Hosted? At the Hiveworkshop? If so, good luck. We're not accepting any new projects right now.

 

[Callahan]

He means the second contest not hosted project.

 

[Hawkwing]

My brain works like this. I see the word "hosted" and then I just think "hosted project". I know, it sucks to be me. xP

 

[RoboHippo]

Well, it took many long nights, but here it is:

Pwnz:
Teh epic kind

Just looking at some of the responses that got, I hope nobody actually took that seriously.

 

[Kwah]

I'm hoping so as well.

 

[Avator]

That's a 'I know so', since I doubt anybody would actually think that would be marked as an entry

 

[Paladon]

Palaslayer joined my team (now we´re two^.^).
He´s mainly the terrainer.
Our entry´s name will be the Elunar Campaign.

I am glad to be able to see something from you again, paladon .

What will it be? Any Screens? Anything done yet?

 

[Paladon]

Hey Anachron^^
Yea, i changed to the spells section.
Which doesn´t mean that i won´t make icons anymore^^

And yeah, we already have first screenshots. But only from the terrain+the first character. And the terrain is wip.

Screenshots

 

[NearbyHermit]

Wow,those screenshots are awesome!

I badly want to play this map,it promises!

 

[bounty hunter2]

Looks cool but houses kinda don't look that good.

 

[NearbyHermit]

Yeah,it's because of their size!

 

[bounty hunter2]

indeed that is the problem

 

[Kwah]

Paladon -- Interested in having another team member? ^^

 

[Anachron]

Well I think the terrain is ok, if you need trigger&system help I can be there for you, and terraining ofcourse

 

[Linaze]

Looking good, Paladon. A bit plain but good.

 

[Paladon]

Thanks for the useful feedback.
@hawk
Oh nice offer, but i guess we currently don´t need more members.
But if we notice that we won´t finish it until the deadline´s end, we´ll talk about it again.

@Anachron
Thanks^^ But i´ve to admit that i´m a bit experienced in triggers & systems too, so i´d like you to check what i just told hawk900^^

@NearbyHermit,bounty hunter2 and Linaze
Thanks for the feedback. All credits for the terrain go to Palaslayer. Btw, you can everytime change your camera angle to the normal wc3 angle or our third person views.

We story is complete now, it´s time 'to map'.

More plants and more stones. Well sunken ruins and ashenvale seem to be perfect for your campaign.

 

[Palaslayer]

hm, thing is i just spammed doodads and what i did, i did yesterday evening in 1 and a half hour, nothing special (it was like a test if paladon could need my help xD) more a beta version of the future terrain

Thats what I do, I do fucking fast the terraining and then reworking it again and again.. That makes imba beautiful landscapes.
