!~Hero Creation Contest Discussion~!

This is not a contest, however I post this to see if there is enough interest to have a contest.

I was thinking of hosting a Hero Creation Contest. This would not involve a demo map for the hero, just the hero itself. Myself, and Ace if he wants, would judge, and the winners' hero will be featured in my Hero Arena and they will get +rep from me. A demo map contaning the hero would also be provided upon request to the winner. So if you are interested in participating, plz post, with any contest ideas you have(not hero ideas)

Thanx for your time.

exactly, i see soo many thread about hero this, hero that and loads of comments, but nothing ever comes of it, this gives ppl a cahnce to get their good ideas out there and to see it in action

as such, since all that needs to be done is coming up with the ideas and posting it, the deadline would also be shorter

I guess I'd participate, as it would only really take a mximum of 10 minutes to take part.

One question, though. Are we (or, we will be) allowed to use custom skins/models?

You mean like request a custom model for them to make your hero with?

Because we aren't making heroes, we are giving hero ideas, and the best idea wins.

Atleast thats what I understood the competition to be.

Sure, I'll compete. Can we use heroes we've already made? Also, Can you submit a pack of heroes or does it have to be one?

aha you guys crack me up, first, off the record

yes, your not making anything, if you guys remember the correct form for submitting the old heroes for teh hero contests, that is what I would be looking for, for good examples, see the hero suggestion part of ww.dota-allstars.com

I would aldo come up with a similar grading scheme

so yes, you come up with a hero, name, class, abilities, etc.

so yes custom models/skins etc are acceptable, but again your not making a map, just showing what all the hero will have, If i do ofcourse host this

    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
