Weekly Terrain: Rules and F.A.Q.

RULES

1. NO FLAMING. Duh. I shouldn't even have to tell you this and I'm generally happy with all the regular posters in this forum. But I'll put it up here just in case.

2. Keep comments useful and on topic. Try to refrain from the "Awesome dude!" and "W|-|04 1337!!!11!1!" (my leet speak is terrible). Constructive criticism is usually the best.

3. No huge images. If you read this thread, then you should know how to take screenshots and crop them. It's hard to critique a screen when just a single tree takes up the whole screen and you have to scroll around it.

4. DO NOT post saying "This is awesome! I'm entering!" and then end up not entering. In such a case, posts like this are considered spam and will be deleted when the WT is over.

F.A.Q.

What is Weekly Terraining?
Weekly Terraining (WT) is a terraining exercise, where terrainers will create a map based on a theme given out by me once a week. It is not a contest. Have fun and learn!

Who can join WT?
Anyone!! It doesn't matter whether you are a newb or an expert terrainer, just post your work and see what people think about it.

How do I show my terrain?
Please post screenshots of your terrain. If you don't know how to take a screenshot, please read this thread. If you want, you can also post your map, but please include screenshots. Some of us (namely myself) are too lazy to download a map and run it in WE.

How many screenshots can we show?
There is no limit on the number of screens you can post for a topic. You can show WIP screens, or put several screens together to show the progression of your map. If you do post a lot of screens, please don't [img] tag them. It will take up too much space on the screen, so just leave them as attachments.

Can we post comments along with our screens?
By all means do. Keep them on topic and don't flame (see RULES above).

Can we use custom models and skins?
Yes but ONLY if they are available for public download.

Who writes the paragraph describing the WT?
There will be credit given to the text chosen to represent the WT topic, if there is no name, it was written by the poster of that WT.

Awesome! :D :D :D :D
Maybe you could move my |>My Terrain Gallery<| Thread to this forum? ;)
I'll post some shagadelic pic once I get my friggen computer to work ^_^

Why would your gallery be in this forum? This is a weekly exercise forum, not a gallery. Also, the only people allowed to start threads in this forum will be me and MAYBE someone else. Any threads not started by me will be deleted k? It's all for organization's sake so don't think I'm being an ass. Later.

Fine, in that case, I will ask my question here, since my thread got deleted (as I expected) BUT I wasn't PM'ed an answer to my question.

Where are the other WT's from weeks before? Have they been deleted from the forum, or have they been archived somewhere? I'd very much like to see the creations of prior weeks.

i told you it would get deleated (but seeing as it got deleated you never saw me say that )
at the bootom of all forum pages is a box that alows you to select how old the thread you view are. its default setting is 2 days, but you can chage it to begining, and see all the threads in that forum

Aaah, thank you very much!

Look like fun. When you have winners Beam you could create a new forum name called WeeklyTerrain and post them on the gallery so we can see them all in one easy spot!

Looking forward to seeing the terrain.

of course there will be no competition style here. all are for fun's sake.

Added a new rule.
