well, there really isnt alot one can do with this theme.

but i would have liked to see a skill where a hero picks up an enemy and throws him at the enemy. that would have been awesome as well.

I've done two of the submissions. I might get another two done today, depending on how things go with school work.
Starting tomorrow, I'm hoping to average out at grading one submission each day (could be better or worse though). Then I'll take about a day making quickly going over each one to make sure they've all been scored to the same standards. So the results will be in next weekend at best. Two weeks time at worst. :p

> Contests are fun. Wonder what the next one will be.
I'm open to suggestions. ;)

I really liked the AI contest, maybe something similar this time for an RTS kind of game? Triggered AI's? Someone interested?

Haha 1 vs 1 AI tournament would be interesting, it would require too much work though.

why? we provide a simple custom race with like 4 or 5 different unit types, a small map with 1 main and 1 or 2 expansions for both players and the task is to create an AI which defeats the other AIs in a battle.

AI's are annoying to create and difficult to assess accurately. On the other hand, making a full scale custom race would be fun. :)

So, how about for the next one, we do something Undead, we don't have enough undead spells. Like necromancy, and such.

EDIT: Sorry sorry sorry for the double post, didn't mean to, just forgot I posted before.

I'd say forbidden spell concept covered undead.... necromancy..... sort of..... not really...... not at all. Perhaps a cinematic spell contest :D

a duel cinematic? that would be epic (and hard to code)

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    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.

    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
