Terrain Contest II


Introduction:
The last terraining contest went well, and with the change of seasons it's time for a new contest and new theme. Welcome to the Terraining Contest - II.​


The Theme:
The theme for this terraining contest is Autumn/Fall. Autumn is on it's way, and i think it would be fun to prepare the forums for a good harvest season.

The piece of terrain must have something to do with Autumn. This includes but is in no means limited to All Hallows Eve, Thanks Giving, and the telltale signs of the fall.​


Information:
To join, simply send me your submission via PM.
Do not post your submission here. Doing so will result in disqualification of the terrain piece.
Also, Do not reveal which one is yours. Doing so will also result in disqualification of the piece.
You can send me WIPs, and I'll periodically post all the WIPs I have, so that people can comment.​


Rules:
  • Your submission must fit in with the theme.
  • Submissions must be in the form of a screenshot
  • One submission per member, one member per submission
  • Do not reveal which terrain is yours
  • Do not submit your terrain here
  • PM me your submission. You can also PM me WIPs, which I will post here. Please specifically state whether or not your submission is WIP.
  • You may change your submissions any amount of times before the deadline.
  • Imports are allowed.
  • Photoshopping is not allowed. Cropping is not included.
  • Be sure to keep a copy of your map. I will contact the winners to make sure their terrains aren't photoshopped or edited.


Grading:
At the deadline, I will create a public poll for members to vote on which terrain they like the most.
More details on the voting will be posted when I create the poll.


Due Date:
All submissions must be in by Saturday, 12th September. Midnight (GMT). Any submissions PMed to me after this time will not be accepted.​


Contest I Results:
The results of the previous contest can be found here

If you have any questions, be sure to ask!

Good Luck! :cool:

Man... I'm no good at terraining. Hopefully we see more epic/dynamic terrains.

Alot of very talented people participated in the last contest, im exited to see some of the same and some new comers in this one.

I prefer the word "Challenging".
I believe in you. :thup:

Neither are there any orange leave textures (that I can find).

I don't know if I should participate in this one. Its just like the summer theme. But I do have a good idea of what to do.

Gah, time to start searching around for some Autumn textures and models...
Might be forced to think out side the box, and not just have trees. >.<

I think that autumn will be easier than summer. I may enter if I have enough free time.

What next? Winter?

After Contest II is over i will open a thread for suggestions, suggestions will be added to a poll, and the winning idea will be used for Terraining Contest - III.

Until then, Good Luck and Happy Mapping :thup:

is it allowed to have unit models and all sorts of animations or is it meant to be just terrain and doodads?

awesome <3

a neat idea has just came up into my mind and I'm already working on it

I think this is my first participation in a contest this year :eek:

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • Varine Varine:
    I ordered like five blocks for 15 dollars. They're just little aluminum blocks with holes drilled into them
  • Varine Varine:
    They are pretty much disposable. I have shitty nozzles though, and I don't think these were designed for how hot I've run them
  • Varine Varine:
    I tried to extract it but the thing is pretty stuck. Idk what else I can use this for
  • Varine Varine:
    I'll throw it into my scrap stuff box, I'm sure can be used for something
  • Varine Varine:
    I have spare parts for like, everything BUT that block lol. Oh well, I'll print this shit next week I guess. Hopefully it fits
  • Varine Varine:
    I see that, despite your insistence to the contrary, we are becoming a recipe website
  • Varine Varine:
    Which is unique I guess.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air
