> Oh and for some reason I can't edit my posts.

Very odd.

> It would be awesome if a mod could edit my first post to change the deadline to the 30th and to add the requirements -A source of food (Farm)

Do you have to post your race in this tread or sent it to you by e-mail or something else?

I say just make it Sept. 30. If you look at the polls (at time of post) it's at 14 for the 30th and only 2 for 20th.

When you say all custom abilities, do you mean that all the abilities for the map have to be triggered?

I think what Sirroelivan meant was do you have to say what race it is you are doing?

You don't have to post what race your doing, as long as your OK if someone does the exact same race.

Race Contest

What?!?! A race contest?:eek: That's right! A race contest (Like Nightelf, Undead, Orc, Human Etc...). The basis of this is you must create a race that fits the requirements.

Your race MUST have:

-A Main structure (Town Hall) That upgrades two times

-A building that can only be but once you upgraded your racial equivalent of a town hall 2 times

-Over 5 different combat units

-All custom abilities

-Over 7 RESEARCHABLE abilities

-4 Custom Heros

-An Altar

-A builder unit

-A defensive tower-ish structure (I'm not picky)

-A souce of food



Grading

60 Points - Meets the Requirements. Does it specify the rules given?

20 Points - Creativeness. Are the heros and abilities creative? Are they appealing?

10 Points - Leaks. Is the code leakless?

10 Points - Choice of Art. Is your overall models, icons, special effects appealing to the eye?


1st Prize: Reputation from me, and anybody else. (Would be glad if people volunteered to rep winner.)

2nd Prize: Reputation from me, and 2 other people.

3rd Prize: Reputation from me.




Deadline is September 30TH, 2007

I'd like to participate!

I'm steering away from Warcraft themes, i'll do my own thought up "Snow Elves".



Edit - I just remembered i'm busy with other things with school, can't participate in this one, it's a bit bigger than other contests.

With 7 researchable abilities, do you mean actual abilities, or can it also be things like 'markmanship' of the night elves or 'animal war training' of the humans?

Anyhow, to answer your question, you don't need triggered abilities. And you need 7 Custom abilities

Umm, yes you can. At least there is no restriction on you doing such. You have all the power you need to edit your posts you just have to figure out how to do it. Just look for the Edit button next to the Reply button on your posts.

What happens when I click the edit button is, it comes up, but when I say Save Changes, it dosen't do anything, and none of the other buttons work (AKA Smilie faces, bold, italic, underline font etc.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

  • Varine Varine:
    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
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Heard Houston got hit pretty bad by storms last night. Hope all is well with TH.
