Model Submissions

[Deep Sea Kraken]

Currently there is a problem with a couple of people spamming models, that doesn't mean the models aren't good, but most of them have no downloads or comments/ratings, maybe there should be a limmit of how many you can upload per day, probably 2 or 3 models can be uploaded per day, just to help prevent spam and releave a huge workload from the mods.

This may not work, but can prevent alot of hassle.

As an example I have a model that I'm hessitant to upload due to the fact that there is 2 pages of pending models.

If they are sucky and LQ, mods will just dissapprove it. It will be annoying to wait to add models. Especially for model packs.

Hmmm.. if Ralle sees this, I have a question:
Will model packs be compatible with the new resource section?

Why limit uploads Deep Sea Kraken, that is a stupid idea. You should just be happy that there is a lot of activity with uploads recently.

 

[Wolverabid]

It's probably not wise to limit submissions per day. Users are welcome to submit any resource that complies with The Hive Workshop's rules.

 

[Deep Sea Kraken]

Up to you guys really, it was just an idea

 

[SuPa-]

It's not their fault that there are no packs. If they have lots of models to submit, why not just submit them?

What Deep sea Kraken is trying to say is to limit the number of recourses added a day to take teh work off of mods.
I personly don't agree with this, but it might help the mods.

As for packs, why not make it so that is a model has another model attatched to it in the mdl/mdx that the attatchment has to be uploaded with the same model aswell, like skins.
Ex.

}
Attachment "Weapon Ref" {
	ObjectId 54,
	Parent 46,	// "Bone_Hand_R"
	Path "Effects1.mdx",
	Visibility 3 {
		DontInterp,
		26667: 1,
		86100: 0,
		100000: 0,
	}
}

note the Path "Effects1.mdx", line.

I sent mufuc a message the day he submitted them that he wait patiently till ralle implements the m pack system. I mainly referred to his rock models which are all just different variations.
Altough I slowly nawed at the models he submitted, I really cant be bothered testing and moderation like 10 diff variations of rocks, and other variations of things he submitted like several flowers and shrubs.

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

Well if 1 rock variation it is probably safe to say that the 9 other does to and just mass approve them. But for variation stuff then yes, it should be better to have in packs. But couldn't that be solved by putting it in a .zip? Or is that not allowed by the system?

No.
The model pack section will be a section for itself. You add the models, icons, skins you want to and it generates the pack itself.

 

[Kwaliti]

I think as a current replacement for model packs would be to .rar your files, and then change the extension to .mdx, however, I think that would screw the system...

 

[Pyritie]

Either that or just make the current JASS submission forum accept model/icon packs as well.

 

[Ralle]

Lol.
The new sections will be compatible with the pack system which I am going to make.
The pack system will not change any of this though.

Whenever you make a pack. You select which resources (that you already submitted) you want to add to the pack. You will then have an option to hide the resources in the sections and only have them shown in the pack.
