(New) Raw Tech-Tree Contest

[Hawkwing]

Like I said, I don't think models should be mandatory considering how difficult it will be to get the right ones.

Edit: It appears that other Techtree contests have been like this too. Imports are allowed but do not affect your score.

i think scoring for custom models should be how you use them, like take off points if a wrong model is used for a wrong unit.
or add points if all the units follow a certain theme or look similar.
anyways, we cant make custom models, just dl them from xgm, wc3c, and the hive.

 

[Hawkwing]

I just think it's really silly. It's going to be near impossible to find all the needed structure, unit, hero, etc models, skins, icons, and such. Let alone to have them all follow a nice theme.

 

[Ghost765]

well, ive actually collected a fine collection of models that follow a certain theme of steel clad legionnaires.
thats why i also asked if we could use a small amount of icons/units/buildings from a melee race.

 

[Hawkwing]

An icon/skin/model from an already existing race? No.

 

[Ghost765]

what about, as someone said earlier, campaign stuff? those arent used in melee races but are still technically part of the race.

we could solve the problem of icons by allowing us to use screenshot icons. but that would be creating material that hasnt been submitted onto the website.

The point is, are we supposed to edit an existing melee map or create one from scratch?

 

[Gausslander]

No, you are just illcapable of following them do to your ignorant interpretation of adaption.
YOU CAN IMPORT CUSTOM RESOURCES, DUMB DUMB! THAT GOES TO ALL OF YOU!

 

[Masiah]

Ignoring your abuse of post size, my question was if we had to create a new melee map refering to terrain, creeps, gold mines, etc or we just open up some standart map like "Gnoll Woods" and edit it from there.

 

[Gausslander]

It will be based off of a contest-made map.

 

[Hawkwing]

And who will make this map?

 

[Martin Barbov]

I don't see why it should be specially made for the contest map - just use ordinary melee map.

 

[JanSze]

Yeah I think a ordinary melee map (why not gnoll forest?) would be the best.
I think it depends on your race and not the map youre using it in. Of course your race shouldn't have any advantage in one map!

 

[Hawkwing]

Well it looks like the next mapping contest has been decided, and it wont be this. Though that doesn't mean we wont be having a Techtree contest in the near future.
