That's right. It's a contest to show off your skills at making .GRP's for biuldings. Virtually the easiest .GRP work there is. Simply make something out of peicing biuldings of SC together to make something new.
The only current rule is, no stealing.
I suppose I should install some size limits. I'll put the size limits to that of a Command Center.
The contest will work like this. There will be no specific judges. Anybody can vote. Therefore, anybody can enter (You can't vote for yourself though). When all the entries are in, people will cast their votes on whom they would like to win.
The prizes:
1st place: 50% of mineral pot
2nd place: 30% of mineral pot
3rd place: 20% of mineral pot
The mineral pot as of now, consists of only my minerals. The pot will increase if I recieve donations
Good luck, your entries must be in by Wednesday, next week.
Count me in.
Edit:
Also, since theres really no rules, can i make a giganticly large building? Its more of a complex i think, but itll be awesome i promise.
Am I allowed to take any of the buildings I like? Oh yeah, I could use this for my contest. When are you going to give prizes?
Before or after I start my contest?
Why is there no date ? The most of hot topic is GRP in Recently ?
i just want to encourage u guys to get knowhow as well
Anyways, i just like to tell don't follow the technique too much
Infact, technique is nothing the most important thing is
the sence and eyes to designing the features vividly
Cool, count me in.
When we are done do we just post them up here? Or Pm the picture to you?
I think PMing the .GRP to him would be a wondrously spectacularily wonderfully amazing idea.
And this contest is a wondrously spectacularily wonderfully amazing idea. It was what I was going for when I hosted that mini-mod contest. I hope you get at least 3 times the entries I got.
And for the record, Lord_Agamemnon submitted the only entry in the entire contest.
Yay!! 1 post away from regular status!!!
EDIT: Hey! why didn't this add to my total posts?

Yeah, But I have relatively no idea what it means.
Anyways, you can post the images here to show them off ahead of time, or you can PM them to me if you'd like to keep them private until release.
I already said the deadline is a week from yesterday, so next Wednesday. I would check the biult in calendar on this computer, but I'm at school.

Thanks for bringing up rules that I didn't think of, and more are welcome.
And by the way DoA, what exactly do you mean by 'taking any of the biuldings you like'?I mean if anybody makes any I like and I ask them, can I have them for my mod. I figure that since I plan on asking before taking...It should be ok. I just thought I'd let you know I'd be looking. QUOTE(DiscipleOfAdun @ Feb 8 2007, 12:05 PM)

I thought all the buildings were done...
I wish. Only about 1/3 are. That'd be Terran ones.
Anyway, I'll see if I can't dig up a building for this. I wanna see how horrible you guys think my (nonexistant) image skills are.
NVM about the units. I've got a pretty good medical facility going. Would you care if we have neat, but worthless animations? Mine could have hangars that open and close, without too much effort. I almost put a dropship about to enter a hangar, when my sanity kicked in, telling me that the dropship would be floating there for all eternity.
And, umm, could you please run my .BMPs through a palette program. Paint can't apply palettes, and I used the terrain palette in my image.
And, one more thing. I really don't think that the command center size is a good guideline, since it's really squished in horizontally, but it has tons of space vertically. How about 200x200?
Well...
To use the biuldings for your mod, I suppose you'll have to get individual permission from people. You can take the one I'll be making.
And, fine... I'll change the height dimensions to 200x200 lol.
Hmm, I need to add something to mine, it seems so... plain.
Yea, im going to own this contest. [/sarcasm]
I actually have no confidence at all but ill try my best.
Sub loves my mod! keke!
I think i'm the only one building GRPs for DoA right now..

Ive given him permission to use any GRPs ive created, he told me hes interested. It makes me feel special too, we want FG now!!
Your mood for the .GRP thing will probably swing nearly as fast as mine. You'll do a couple units, a couple buildings, and then you'll just stop. But please do make .GRPs for him.
Aww i wanted to see Lazer man.
No, I have teased you! Now you must wait until the contest is over! Bwahahaha!!!
OK, I'll give a link to the image, so it doesn't appear in front of everyone's face.
