I'll enter...something or other (depends on how much time I have :p). By the way, if you're being allowed to do battle scenes and whatnot, isn't this really more of a screenshot contest than just a "terrain" contest?

I brought this up before the server crash, but nobody responded. Some clarification on *how much* of the focus actually needs to be on terrain/doodads would be nice....

No.. if this were a screenie contest.. you'd get to go out places and take pictures and se who had the best.

Screenies is just a more secure way of competing, if you send in the map, chances are some will take it and use it.

---

The doodads and that can be used as often as you like but you want to capture every detail of whatever map you're doing, space, detail, everything.

I'm adding you, good luck all.

If hobo doesn't wanna judge eather i could do it. otherwise, i'll make some screenies.

ALSO: I would like to say something i just discovered. Sometimes when you zoom out too much the terrain gets black, but if you hold Shift+Ctrl + Right mouse button and drag the mouse down the limit will become much longer away, you can zoom out really long without getting black areas.
not sure if it works for all. but it did for me :)

you can also use ctrl+mousewheel

and another thing, is 2-P being allowed to enter because s/he will almost certainly win?

dont give into intimidation.. i hope 2-P enters, it'd be interesting to have real competition

also.. im a bit confused.. you say not to turn in any screen shots until may 10th, but you dont say ANYTHING about making your map before then.. am i mistaken?

Sign me up..

mousewheel zooms for me, maybe its just you :/.
if you hold ctrl while using the mousewheel it should move the blackness.
if you just use the wheel by itself it zooms.
 

2-P

I will work hard tomorrow

*sigh*
Why is no one complaining about Jimpy? Meh, you'll see...

Anyway, I probably won't enter, I... don't like the theme...

wtf?

the theme is that you can make ANYTHING and you don't like it?

(no offense but that's pretty much like saying you don't like terraining :/).

Not many of the new regular's have seen Jimpy's work, so they don't think he's as good as you (but trust me guys, i've seen alot of his work :p).

  • The Helper The Helper:
    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before
  • The Helper The Helper:
    We now have a web designer at my job. A legit talented professional! I am going to get him to redesign the site theme. It is time.

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    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.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am not big on the recipes I am just promoting them - I use the site as a practice place promoting stuff

  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences

    I think I need to split the Sci/Tech news forum into 2 one for Science and one for Tech but I am hating all the moving of posts I would have to do
