[QUOTE=Not_Yet;24318349]managed to compile it and get it working, many thanks to pj for helping me with the texture error[/QUOTE] They grow up so fast :britain:
Janooba and I are entering this contest.
Myself and [url=http://www.facepunch.com/member.php?u=192112]cheesywlz[/url] will be entering.
Need a partner, hit me up via pm/steam if you're interested.
This contest looks freaking awesome. Can't wait to see how this turns out.
Working with [URL="http://www.facepunch.com/member.php?u=284518"]Spycrabz[/URL].
I'm entering, anyone feel like joining me?
Me and Stinkfire will be pairing up.
I'm working with Pelf now.
Actually half tempted to enter, however I feel my lack of commitment and general apathy would be a let down to anyone who team'd up with me. Excellent theme though.
I reckon Not_Yet and BJK have the best previews so far- But I wonder what Firegod and Iron_Phoenix are cooking up. :buddy:
[QUOTE=metallics;24334860]Actually half tempted to enter, however I feel my lack of commitment and general apathy would be a let down to anyone who team'd up with me. Excellent theme though.[/QUOTE] That's what I thought at first. I loved the theme, but I wasn't too sure about the partner idea. I mean it's brilliant really, but I felt as if I'd just let someone down. But now I can see the plus side to having a partner. If you'd get stuck on something annoying or lose inspiration, your partner might be able to give input and get the flow going again. Kickass.

[QUOTE=Zyx;24335288]I think a lot of people haven't showed what they're working on. Like me for example.[/QUOTE] True. ^^ I like whats up so far though. I'm interested in what their maps will look like when done.
This seems great and if anyone needs a team member and provides the idea, just contact me via PM.
This sounds like a stargate atlantis episode.

I'm entering with DanielPinoy
I would join but I can't think of anything original with Micronations.

[QUOTE=Not_Yet;24318349] [IMG]http://i33.tinypic.com/1hyo2b.png[/IMG] [/QUOTE] I think you could improve it by changing the texture on either the bottom or the top stick to break it up a bit. Like this [img]http://files.braxnet.org/8feda97.jpg[/img]
Looks good guys, I like the tropical feel so far.. Me, well I'm going to try something I did before, but improve upon it, hopefully with Selbs' help, we'll be able to improve upon the concept more than ever. Here's a couple of mess around sessions I've had so far, nothing concrete yet. [IMG]http://i33.tinypic.com/2eyxisp.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i38.tinypic.com/j0ceud.jpg[/IMG] And another thing I tried..

Looking very nice there DeadChicken. What is that water texture its sexy?
Shit DeadChicken, that last one could almost be a photo. I also want to know what that water texture is. This competition is gonna be tough.
I would participate but no one is worthy of my god-like mapping abilities. But in all seriousness I'm not that great. Good luck to everyone!
Hehe, thanks.. I don't actually remember, I was just picking water textures at random to see their outcome, I'll tell you If I find it.
I strongly recommend that contestants look at some reference pictures of open ocean to create a water texture that looks realistic. Because water's going to be a pretty big part of your map (unless your micro-nation is nestled within another country).
my reference includes: [img]http://www.cgrer.uiowa.edu/education/ssep/atoll.jpeg[/img] the Waterworld.. World is an eerily flat ocean, it gives me a lot of room for creativity, ofcourse, we can experiment with that too.

Lets hope your map gets more credit than the movie.
