Terrain Contest BETA

THREAD DESCRIPTION:
Terrain Contest for the gold release.

POST GUIDELINES:
I am supplying a map that has all the terrain and units/doods but no units or doodads in place. As long as you dont change the actual terrain tiles your entry will be considered. If you do change the tile you must tell me in the post AND it must be tremendous otherwise I wont be able to justify losing another terrain because I have maxed out the terrain tiles.

CONTEST RULES:

1. DL the map. While not protected all GUI triggers have been removed.

2. Make a new terrain that fits within the guide of ONE of the boxes. You do NOT need to do more than player 1 side, the left one. I would recommend starting with the Perfect world terrain since it is flat and remove all units and doodads except for the red and blue books.

3. Add units/doods including possible new models that are small. DO NOT OVERLOAD on doods because I need this map BNET playable.

Terrain Guideline:
Must fit in the black edged box.
Include a turn indicator of some kind in the top left corner.
Include 2 boxes to place the dead pieces on the left.
Include the red and blue book on the right.
Include at least ONE flyer/wandering unit.
Terrain that the pieces sit on must be perfectly flat. ie the main square.

4. Submit map here with a SS of the new terrain. Discussion of what you did and why and perhaps a name.

5. Contest will run for at least 2 months. Winner will be part of the prize pool. Prizes will include at least 1 free month of WOW. Winner will get both recognition in the gold release as well as the website and here at the forums.

Good Luck and feel free to post any questions here!

Do we have to make regions in the new terrain area? Also, do we have to add triggers to the terrain area? Also, why are there clones of all terrain squares?

Sorry took 2 days off and went to Portland.... Ok you can make the map anywhere on the main map cuz I will just move it.

No triggers will be needed I will handle that.

The clones exist because thats how i made the map. Player one views the one on the left and Player two the one on the right. Then I set up 2 boards with 2 sets of units.

I look forward to seeing the terrain!

Well, i have yet another problem, after saving my map once and reloading the map, i noticed that the wraith model could not be loaded, what's the problem there? Also, is it ok if i add some music i think will go good with the map and if you like it make it an offical trigger?

Not sure why you would be having an issue with the wraith model. Any suggestions including adding music will definately be taken.

Thanks for the help!

When you are done post some screenies of the terrain u made.

Alright, i will put the finishing touchs on my terrain, then send it in for rating.

Sorry about me not posting in such a long time, been kinda busy, my last q before i post the SS and map, would you like more then one SS or will one just do?

Whatever u feel is necessary to show it off. But i imagine just 1 will do.

I decided i shall just do one then, this here is my terrain by the name of Final Destination, i basicly took one of the empty boards and made everything blight or rough dirt, took me around an hour to do so, because the blight kept hitting other used boards and i couldn't afford to let them be blightafied. I also added dead trees and lots of skulls, for wandering things, i made 3 (maybe 2?) macabres which use the skeleton warrior model, and for flier, i made a frost wyrm model (which you can see in the pic) but i forgot the name. Also in the pic is the first turn indicator, which uses the undead shrine model, the other turn indicator isn't on the pic, but it looks cool using the Curse spell model! Well, enough chatter, here's the SS.

And here's the map, the wraith model does,'t load for some odd reason, and also, i included a bit of music i found would be nice in this map, it's 300 or more kbs and it's name is Slaves of Rome. (Music from the movie, gladiators)

:8 When you are done post some screenshots of the terrain u made.

I did post a screen shot of the terrain i made!

DOH! o_O

NO clue how i missed it.

Anyway, nice =P
