I will be joining this, here is my first WIP screen-shot;

And some say this was going to be cancelled with lack of contestants.I would like to say that I am glad that the List of Participants is growing every day.
EDIT
It is overwhelming.

nah, that was just taunting
Whole Map![]()
In accordance to formers contests : NOI just reread the rules and noticed that optimized maps are not discouraged in this contest. But in the past ones, I remember that submitted entries should not be optimized.
So just for clarification, is optimization allowed or not?
No, it's size limited, you must cake map by 32x32 dimension.Uh, isn't this map dimensions limited? Thought it was size limited, like 200kB or something..
edit: What's the time in which I need to participate? :/
Well, I can't explain it well.
But you should look at reference.
Here are some main concern :
Mainly, This is to ensure the map never reach 8 MB by default (before optimization), which actually leads to disqualification.
Also, it's to ensure that judges can read triggers and object editors. They're evaluated in the judging.
P. S. : If you protect your map in former contests your entry will be disqualified. With these reference I consider it's forbidden to protect contestant entries, you may however, protect your map when you upload it to map section one day, after this contest is over![]()
If you can play it in multi-player, map did not reach 8 MB- logical.
Optimization optimizes the map back to 8 MB. I surely see no problem in this, you can also skip trigger judging because its part of Object Data- 10 points. That means a protected map will cost -10 points in Object Data judging.![]()
No one wants to edit your map anyway, trust me.
You can't optimize the map because triggers need to be evaluated. End of story. No one wants to edit your map anyway, trust me.
In accordance to formers contests : NO
Will inform Eubz about it.

Here's my WORK IN PROGRESS picture![]()

So, have you already decided on what kind of map will you make? Genre?
btw, I'm about to remove (hide) all import datas using optimizer because I got some sounds not for free and I'm not interested to share them, is that allowed?
I've been quite busy this few days, so i don't have much to show. The idea i'm going for is escape game. I'll bring some more pictures later this week.
Btw, does anyone know who made this UI, it's called King's Bounty. Don't know who to credit.
