Its so its truly speed mapping. There will likely be some outlandish theme nobody could have prepared for, and nobody will no what it is until the contest starts (to avoid cheating).

I know that ffs.

What I wanted to ask is why will you use PM to notify us.

Will you also post it on this thread so everybody can see what the contest is all about once it starts?

I am guessing the PM is just an extra layer of secretness... he will PM his favorite people first :p. Anyway, I don't think we'd each get a different theme. It would be too difficult to judge. So yeah, Andrewgosu is probably just high.

im in :D
But why PM? You can just edit it in the 1. post of the thread so people wich dont join also see it.

hmmmm, what could it be? What type of map?
-RPG? no to small map i think
-TD? na, that much points for a TD are hardly possible
-A Defense? hmmm, possible
-An AoS? Possible too
-A mini game? hmmm, we allready have a contest about this, so: NO
-A CTF? NO, to specific

Did i forget something? I think it's a... i dont know x.x. An AoS... that's just not andrewgosu i think, he would not make an AoS. And a defense? who the hell wants a defense?

BTW: Wish me a happy birthday :D

Added to index.
I'll join.
If JASS is going to have 5 more points then GUI then I expect the JASS to be graded compared to Perfection coding.As in vJASS.

I just found out something, and thus I have to withdraw from this contest. It actually happens I leave on the 22nd for a two-week camp, so I won't even be here for the PM.

Too bad I guess. :(

He said JASS.... not VJass... And anyway, writing in pure JASS is still compilable via VJass... VJass is an extension and should be treated as such. It is the difference between WEU and RoC WE...

Not to mention VJass is nowhere near perfect...

... I meant that the coding should be compared to most possible efficiency.

? Ummm... Okay, so no structs = only +3 points... I'll agree with you there. GUI still gets nothing :p.

That's kind of silly coming from you uareanoob. You always tell me you use GUI because it's more of a challenge, and in other words, the least efficient way to trigger anything.
If we don't use other people's systems in JASS, I don't think we should lose marks... That would be dumb as shit, because, I've never come across a need for systems, so I've never learnt them, and my triggering always works fine.

OH yeah, and count me in. I never finish maps, so I doubt this is the competition for me, but maybe a short deadline will stop my procrastination.

You don't have to use other people systems use do thing is most efficient way.

How about changing the start date of this contest to the 11th, or maybe the 10th. You have a few good contestants (and me)... and I really want to start... :p

To clarify, GUI is only quicker for those who don't know JASS well enough to use it to it's true potential and effiency.

The only I agree with moving the dates back a bit is so that I can compete. If it were to start on teh 18, and end on the 21, it'd make me happy.

Though I sadly admit the world doesn't revolve around me.


Have a nice day! :)

I'm pretty good at JASS now, I still find GUI quicker though lol
Anyways anyways...

I say we run a poll to get the date moved back!
I'm all for moving the date back :D

Lets go on strike!

Or we can have two map contests. One that starts earlier than the one now, and the other one which is this one :D

And i think GUI and JASS is a mental disability... people have certain opinions, and no matter what other people say, they might stick to their opinion. :D
Now let's not fight each other, it's the world editor we should be fighting
 

2-P

I will work hard tomorrow

25 points for triggering and 20 for the gameplay? Isn't this more of a coding instead of a mapping contest? o.0

And don't care about that GUI-JASS thing, many of the good JASSers are bad at terraining, so you can get your extra points there. :p

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
