BrokenX, that terrain is fantastic. You used doodads well, and I love how the waterfalls fall in a circular shape. I also love the path across, and the terrain used for that area.

A few things you could fix up:

Remember , water finds it's own height - this means all the waterfalls should flow from the top at the same level. To adjust this, choose the waterfall, and use Ctrl+PgUp/PgDn to adjust the waterfall height.

Some more water doodads would be nice.

On the top level to the right of the waterfall, there is a lack of doodads - add some to make it look more consistant.

Also, try use Environmental Doodads other than Shrub - flowers, mushrooms and rocks would all work too.

Otherwise, great terrain, keep up the good mapping!

Whoops, my bad. Sorry :p

Anyways, you could maybe use my suggestions (if you want) in updating the screenshot when it IS finished.

Just trying to help, hence the name of the forum...

Yea I might fill some stuff in later I just wanted to do the whole theme like this ... so I got the whole map looking like this except for one part which is secretly held captive hehe, just cause I thought I would run out of doodads but I guess I never ... but yeah im going to go over it after... and do a little bit of a better job

I see, looks very nice.

Take as many screenies as you want BrokenX but it must be of the same map.

Your name has been added to the first page (linked to your work ;))

When are we judging these, again? I may have to submit my votes early, since I won't be here most of the upcoming week, if the final votes must be in then.

Personally :D Pushing it back to get a few more contestants and maybe let some people improve their work sounds good to me.

deadline is 25/8/05 (UK) 8/25/05 (USA)

Judges send your results in ASAP after the deadline.

And alexander, if you cant send results then than ok but what if you're gone and someone else joins the contest and submits something?

Well, you could times' the other two judges' scores by 1 and a half, as to have all the scores 'out of' the same mark...

General chit-chat
Help Users
  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • 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
  • The Helper The Helper:
    New dessert added to recipes Southern Pecan Praline Cake https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-southern-pecan-praline-cake.193555/
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Another bot invasion 493 members online most of them bots that do not show up on stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I'm looking at a solid 378 guests, but 3 members. Of which two are me and VSNES. The third is unlisted, which makes me think its a ghost.

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
