<div class="IPBDescription">Rules and Regulations [WIP] thread...</div> <span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'>Rules and Regulations on Participation:</span>

Each participant will be able to enter TWO models, with an exception of building and player models, where submissions are infinite.

Each model will be submitted to me (Delarosa) Via PM (if have hosting that works for .zip and it NOT the ns forums) Via e-mail rose @ neotech.cc, or via a messenger service.

Once your TWO models are submitted, you will no longer be allowed to submit/change the models that you will compete with. (no withdrawl of a model to replace it with another, this INCLUDES updates on your model, so send ONLY your final version.)

The Voting Will last for 7 days, anyone found of cheating the polls will be disqualified from the contest, and have their name on the “watch for rule breaking” list with the forum moderators.

The initial date you started on your model can be no OLDER than April 01 2004.

Models submitted must be your original work. “Hacks” or compilations of other people’s work does not count as your own work.

To the effect of a person creating a player model, their submission will be given lenience time depending on a case by case basis, you should notify me that you are creating a player model, and send me updates on a frequent basis.


<span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'>To Submit a Model:</span>
Create a .Zip or .Rar file including the following:
A .3ds and if possible a .ms3d (one or the other, preferably both)
2 wireframe images (.jpg)
2 “money-shot” renders (.jpg)
If applicable, the concept art you based your model off of.
A zip file of credits (.txt)


<span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'>To be included in your text file:</span>
Your name
Your contact information (e-mail, website, aim/msn/yahoo/icq… something your NOT going to have changed in 3 years)
Modeling Program used
Amount of time spent on file
If applicable, the name of the person that did your concept (if not you)
Polygon Count
A line stating that you give permission for T2K to host the file in the WIP section of the site (a line with “no” or “yes” works)


Submissions will be broken up into Classes, and each class will have each a separate poll.

<span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'>The Rules on polygonal count are as follows:</span>

General:
Model must be Triangulated (no quad-modeling please)
Be honest in your polygon count in the text file (we will check up on them anyway, but that doesn’t mean you can be lazy)
Do not delete back-faces

Knives/Grenades:
Maximum polygonal Count: 800 tri

Handguns/Welders/Mines:
Maximum polygonal Count: 1500

Light/Heavy Machine Guns/Shotguns:
Maximum Polygonal Count: 1800

Grenade Launcher:
Maximum Polygonal Count: 2000

Player Models:**
Maximum Polygonal Count: 2500

Building Models: **
Maximum Polygonal Count: 1000

**models submitted for these categories do not count for your TWO model submissions.


THE PURPOSE OF THIS THREAD:

To discuss the development of the models, show us progress shots.


END MODEL SUBMISSION DATE: <span style='font-size:21pt;line-height:100%'><span style='color:red'>Sunday April 11th</span></span>

    optimize/reduce details... these are things we are trying to keep to a relativly low PC... (we want them in game.. for EVERYONE, remember?)


    chrono, i know your models, winning a contest like this wouldn't be a challenge for you... hence the poly restrictions being so tight... you have to work on keeping them low(er) and we have to work on MAKING them...

    if you absolutly can't edit the poly down by 100, submit it anyway... if it's anything OVER 100 poly off... i won't accept it for the contest (ok?)

    for those (like mr.monkeypoo) if you are unable to see the images hosted on T2K, follow the directions located <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=63364' target='_blank'>Here</a>

    and remember, make a backup copt of the hosts file before overwriting it... although nobody i have talked to has had any problems, it still is a good idea to take nescisarry precautions.

    how about for every hundred polies under you get a bonus vote, and every 100 over you get one counted against you. so you take chronos total votes and take one off, and on mine you add like... 10. and thats only if its an acceptable model.
  • ChronoChrono Local flyboy Join Date: 2003-08-05 Member: 18989Members
    ok then for every day your early in the competition submision you get 100 votes added so that means im 699 votes in the lead <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    little suggestion on the voting can you make it so the models are viewable in 3d? that way peopl will be able to see what the model looks like from every angel instead of one wierd jpeg
