Map Contest: Survive The Horror
« on: January 20, 2007, 08:43:27 PM »
THIS CONTEST IS CLOSED. Winner: Daetyrnis

JUDGES: Meiscool  -  Linkizcool  -  MrMister

As promised, here is a chipset that’s not Mac and Blue:



Rules: Using the chipset above, create the best possible map that you can. You can only use the chipset, and NO events, effects, or panoramas, unless told otherwise. Any exceptions will be noted below.
-The Map will be 320 X 240 pixels. THERE IS NO CERTAIN TYPE OF MAP YOU NEED TO MAKE. If I post a forest chipset, you can feel free to make a desert. It’s up to YOU. Only one screenshot per person.
-You cannot, and shouldn’t, use a screenshot that already exists in your game. This means, that to enter the contest, the map you make should’ve been made after I made this post, not something that was already in your game before this post. What you do after the contest with this map, is completely up to you.
-The map can only be changed using RPG Maker 2003. No other image editors, such as paint, Photoshop, etc, are allowed after you have taken the screenshot. If I find out you edited your picture with something other than RPG Maker 2003, you’re out of the contest.
-You may enter as many screenshots as you want, but only THE LAST screenshot you post will be judged, unless you are posting a screenshot as an example to help another person or another purpose other then competing.

Exceptions: UNLIMITED FREEDOM! This means that you can do anything you want. Add overlays, screen tints, sprites, events, weather, and the whole shebang. The only thing you can’t do is edit the chipset, or break one of the above rules.

*Note: This chipset is partially custom made by me, and highly edited. Please contact me if you wish to use it in an event other than this contest, and give credit.*

This contest will go for five days, or until we have enough entries. Anyone can enter the contest, judges as well, though judges can't win prizes.

To start things off, I will post my map. This is an actual screen from my game. Remember, because I'm a judge, my map won't be in the voting. This is just an example of what you can do.



So, begin!

~ Don’t know how to take screenshots? Here’s a tutorial:

In the upper right of your computer, you should notice a key that is called “Print Srcn”. Go into your game and play on the map that you want to take a screenshot of. Make sure your game is in full screen mode, and then press the “Print Srcn” key. Now, don’t do anything other than I tell you to right now. Close the game by pressing F12 and quit. Then, open MS Paint or any other image program. When it’s opened, press the Ctrl key and the V key at the same time. You should see an image of what you wanted to take a screenshot of. Next, make sure the screenshot is 320 x 240 pixels and hit save. Save your picture as a PNG file. After that, everything you need is done and you can host your map!

Two Questions
« Reply #6 on: January 21, 2007, 04:06:43 AM »
Can I use the Blood charasets from "The Way?"

And can I use Move Event to make them a little more transparent?

EDIT:
Scratch that.

jynce, you need to STOP using such large avatars. Slim it down to at least around 150X150.

Yes you can. You can do anything you want as long as it's within RPG Maker 2003's programming.

So, if you want to change your map you can.

-Add the bottom third tiles of the wall that is provided in the chipset.  Your's are lacking and look horrible like that.
-Add more "random" things, like imperfections on the ground and walls.
-Create lighting via tones and/or picture overlays
-That woman has like, no contrast, that looks extremely bad with the rest of the screen.

Dropping out of this for personal reasons. Also, this post lets you guys know that I won't be posting as much for a while.
