Custom Rank" will not be issued by Banshee unless thier is a sufficient amount of entries. I am also going to include (2) pre paid Visa cards in the amounts of 20.00 and 10.00 US Dollars. Not much, but all I can afford right now. I am also going to extend this comp to 19th of January 2011. There will now also be 2 winners, 1st place will get "pending Participation" A Custom Rank from Banshee and a 20.00 pre paid visa, 2nd place will recieve a 10.00 pre paid visa. So now hopefully this will draw some more attention into this competition. Start Building guys.

Alright, the rest is up to you judges. There's no rush, so when ever you find free time, just dont wait till next fall. _________________

I let it run for 90 days. More than enough time to produce something. Heck I even opened it up to all the 2d games and c/p was allowed also. People just arent interested in contests anymore, so it seems.
***All you judges did get my updated version right? I sent out 2 entries, the first one sent is null just so you know. _________________

I couldn't believe when I went back to look for this. 4 yrs ago (assuming this was at the end of 2006). I feel having these contests can inspire people to create buildings on their own instead of just downloading someone elses work or can give people an idea of what to do with their own. There are alot of people out their with some great talent, I hope this contest doesn't go bust. Looking forward to the entries.
Um...90 days more, get my roads done, maybe I'll work a bit on a couple of my European buildings for my mod and enter one of them. _________________ I am authorized to send out the TMP Studio, PM ME IF YOU WANT IT And check this out, these were sent to me for help with terrain and zdata help along with TMP Studio/Builder
No, the contest is over. You may start your judging.
Note: Due to lack of entries there will be no custom ranking from Banshee..Sorry guys, there just wasnt enough entries for him to warrant it. _________________

perhaps you could set the month in the contest name, when I read fall I assumed it'd be open until Autumn, that being March April May (southern hemisphere), best not to use seasons as names in an international contest.
And yes I am aware a date is in the post but I didn't notice it until now , thought I had more time QUICK_EDIT
Well, It's really up to everyone here. If you guys want to expand it a little further that's fine with me. Nothings set in stone yet.
Heck I'm not even going to wait for an answer. Since there has been 2-3 people wanting to enter something we are going to expand it for another 60 days and maybe pick up a couple more entries during this time. Why not, every other contest has been extended multiple times, why not this one.
Judges, new Deadline is March 20th, 2011 "this is the final date, no other extentions will be granted" _________________

thanks , I'll be cracking open the modeler very soon
Also, is it ok if I get help with the conversion to shp? I can model and animate etc no problem, but I haven't converted to shp yet QUICK_EDIT

Well, it's really not a condoned thing for such contest, but daTS had Orac help with his project, so yeah I dont see why not. But keep in mind, this is supposed to be an individual accomplishment. and really, points should be deducted for having others help with any of the process. _________________

I don't see why someone helping teach technical knowledge should induce point removal, that just discourages new people getting into the contest (which clearly has resulted in few entries) QUICK_EDIT

Sorry, I didnt make it clear enough. There will be no points deducted from this contest and I dont mind if someone helps you. I was just referencing that such contests should be on an individual accomplishment. Think of it this way. If it takes 3 people to complete your model to shp then its really not your work. It's the work of all 3 people. It maybe your model but not your work. Understand what I'm trying to say?

Not true, cause I've pretty much tried to open the door on every angle to get more people involved. Like I said I dont mind if people help each other on this, I dont mind c/p, i dont mind what game its for "2d games" just as long as it arrives fully ready for ingame in .shp form:D _________________

Just a reminder, 2 weeks till deadline.
We still need more entries...... _________________

I'd start making something if someone could suggest something to make. Otherwise, I've got no ideas and would probably end up making some ridiculous GrandPsychicTeslaObelisk. _________________ "Don't beg for things; Do it yourself or you'll never get anything." QUICK_EDIT
You guys can make whatever you want, faction or civilian.
and remember, it can be for any of the 2d C&C games. _________________

Alright well, I made something. But first, I can't get SHP builder to make a shadow frame even though I've either included the shadows in the first frame/ or made them a separate frame. What am I doing wrong?
The shadow color your using is 0,0,237. It's to close to the 0,0,252 background color. So when you import it into shp builder it recognizes it as the blue 0,0,252.
So before importing the shadow frame into shp builder make sure to floodfill the shadow color to 0,0,196 _________________

Thanks Cranium, though I think I'll try and get it to render shadows darker. Too many animation frames to open and close @_@. _________________ "Don't beg for things; Do it yourself or you'll never get anything." QUICK_EDIT

Your shadow is at the wrong angle. Just an FYI. _________________ "Reality is a lovely place, but I wouldn't want to live there." -Adam Young QUICK_EDIT

3 days remaining people, be quick if you want to enter.
EDIT: 3 days, not 13 Last edited by Dutchygamer on Fri Mar 18, 2011 11:32 am; edited 1 time in total QUICK_EDIT
Taking a very long bus ride tomorrow, so I'll finish mine then and submit it once I find free WiFi.
Only problem is my Laptop's battery runs out fast. Even faster with Max running. QUICK_EDIT
Well good luck on it rendering before the battery runs out, make sure it doesn't auto-shutdown at like 15% battery life or something stupid
RA2Script really helped, don't know why I never seen the thread for it. Should be ready to submit once I figure out SHP turret firing animation logic. (32*7 / piⁿ * Ω³...) _________________ "Don't beg for things; Do it yourself or you'll never get anything." QUICK_EDIT
well if you guys want we can let it run till the end of the month, I mean hell, whats 12 more days _________________

You do know that TS and RA2 don't support turret firing animations on SHP units, right? _________________ SHP Artist of Twisted Insurrection: Nod buildings
@LKO Sure they do, you just make it an offset (or not offset if you want it to fire at 0,0,0) animation for the weapon. But you're right, and I gave up because figuring the offset is too much work.
Anyway. Submitted in all its terrible indignation. _________________ "Don't beg for things; Do it yourself or you'll never get anything." QUICK_EDIT
