Unit Making Contest

I am holding a Unique Unit making contest... this will be for my map and the 6 winners (yes that's right... 6 :p ) will get their name in my map (not a very good prize but hey :p ) and thier unit in it obviously.. and the satisfaction of winning and helping me out. I need one for each of the six races (which is why there are six winners) The races are: Human, Orc, Night Elf, Naga, Demon, and Undead.

Rules​

  • You may make only one entry per race
  • You must have at least 2 abilities for the unit (these are NOT hero abilities though)
  • You MUST use a custom model and have a link to where I can get it
  • You must write a story for why this unit is with this race (it could simply be because the unit is an orc... but if you said it was an orc that was captured by Night Elves and tortured and is now out for revenge... you will get more points)


Scoring​


5 points - Model quality
10 points - Creativity
10 points - How well it fits the race
10 points - Why your unit is with that race/It's background
15 points - (I know most people won't like this one) My personal opinion :p
20 points - Uniqueness
30 points - Abilities


Total 100 points




I will update this if I decide to add a rule/remove a rule or change the scoring.

Guys, stop making contests. We have enough of them already. If you really HAVE to, PM an admin/mod of the WE zone to make sure its ok.

We have like, 8 or 9 running right now... :eek:

Um... does it HAVE to be a custom model? I hate custom models. They (mostly) bore me. I was hoping I could use a hero from TFT and change a few things (I think you might like). I know I'll get points deducted, but he will have originality and a plot behind him and (maybe a custom, but definetely modified) new moves. :(

must be custom because I'm planning on using most if not all other models in the game. their are HUNDREDs of custom models out there to sownload (or make your own) you have to like at least one of them :p

Well I do, but what I'm saying is there is STILL hope in the old models, no one has discovered it yet. /: Custom models aren't everything.... right..? /:

no suctom models aren't everything... but this is the races UNIQUE unit... so I don't want to be using the model for another unit if you submit it with a non-custom model you still can win... I will grade the models you suggest IF I am not going to use it.. but if I am you just get a 0 on model... and then if you still manage to win with that much of a handi-cap... I will just change your model file :p

Lol funny. :D So what If I gave you abilities and plot for the guy and you just chose a model file out that would suit him FOR me? :D :p Jk. Anyways how about If I just make the movelist and post the place where you can obtain the modelfile? :confused:

Now this is what I call a cheap way to get people to make units for his map... Rules are pathetic, and you are practically requesting people to make the entire unit, from model (looks) to abilities. Lame!

Hmmm, this contest is scam, Eilhal is obvious too lazy, or anything to do something himself, so he wants others to do 6 heroes.units for him, and what's the point of doing that when u wont even get anything like rep points..
Notice:
I am holding a Unique Unit making contest... this will be for my map and the 6 winners (yes that's right... 6 )
1: There is nothign stateing what the name of your map is
2: It specifically states:
this will be for my map
3: What's the point if your not even getting anything out of this.
4: If you state yourself u can download models/skins
must be custom because I'm planning on using most if not all other models in the game. their are HUNDREDs of custom models out there to sownload (or make your own) you have to like at least one of them
, then why don't you make your own custom model / download a pre-made one.
5: People will be sending models that they like, meaning you might not like them either, so why don't you make what suits you?

... ok thanks for slamming me guys I love it when that happens :mad: and I'm not lazy...I just have a lot to do and my ideas are limited. But since that is 3 people slamming me for this contest I will take it else where... also it doesn't state the name because I don't have one yet... if you want details ask me... don't slam me... or here's an idea look at posts that I've made previously that are ABOUT my map...

Don't leave. Your one of the few people I like on this forum. :D <3 I didn't say I hated you all. Shutup. :D

Eh... oh well... I had a good idea to. PM me if you're still interested. I have a good Night Elf Hero in Plan. :)

::Edit::
I DO notice most of the criticism in this forum is NOT constructive but "let-down" criticism. People are afraid to make maps because some people just bash them and say they can't think of any better ideas. NOT good. NOT good... Of course, again, it's not all of you. But there is a select few..... By the way don;t listen to people who don't know how to create a timer window. :D :p

Now to make the essence of the PM I made towards Eilhal public.

I am against this contest because it is not a contest, infact. It is just a masked alternative of trying to make other people help you with the project, telling it just "in pass"... like "oh yeah, and your ideas will also be added into my map, except the fun of joining this contest". Bad attitude! If you want people to help you with your project, just say it, not mask it in the form of a contest. It is clearer and fairer when you say "look... I need help with my project. I need some ideas for heroes. Maybe you can also help me with models and abilities. Any help would be appreciated!"

I hope I made myself clear. And you can contact any mod you want. Threatening us with "I'm leaving the forums" is really pathetic. Are we supposed to say "OH NO... don't leave... we are sorry!!!"?!? Nice try, but you won't get this from me!

    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
