REH_BlackJacks Contest of exceptional Creativity: "Stubbornness of the Resistance" - Garry's Mod

Due to the constant complaints and my own RL problems, the contest is called off.

I lost interest at "- Only models from HL² are allowed ... NO custom weapons, vehicles or ragdolls" Sorry but original HL2 ragdolls suck! They're rigged like assholes.

Well, you should have read further ... i allow ragdolls from Fakefactory's Cinema Pack. Your loss if you're too pussy for a challenge.

Sounds legit, I'm game

But by reskins related to the Half Life Universe you mean we can use any the different skins that have been created for the Citizens/Rebels and the Combine/CPs ?

[QUOTE=Santz;17561693]Same.... But by reskins related to the Half Life Universe you mean we can use any the different skins that have been created for the Citizens/Rebels and the Combine/CPs ?[/QUOTE] As long as it is the same model and it still fits into HL², yes.

Nice, a competition that actually rewards you for your efforts. I think I'll consider making something.

Would Alexvestins weapon re-skins count? They're just re-models, but its still technically the same model [img]http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/116/ar3c3.jpg[/img][img]http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/8251/ar3c2.jpg[/img] There is the SMG

-snip- I lost intrest quicky now, sorry :/

The date compared to that last 'badass' competition is more realistic, so I might take part too. Who won that by the way?

(and this contest) But those were just examples for your question, right ?

I'm sorry but I just don't like the idea of having a price. Mr. Whitefolks contests were fun because everyone got along and there were no fights about who did the best screenshot, everyone just liked to see good work with the selected theme. His contests were small, simple and if you did the considered best screenshot you would get a spot in his deviantart album that was fun to look through to see your partners work or to get that museum feeling. I just think this is too complicated.

Blackjack, cut down on the fucking text before I bomb your house. I'm serious, you type to much. Reading one post is okay, you write a fucking story board and I lose interest about your statement and opinion half way through. CUT-IT-DOWN.

You need to trim that rule down son.

[QUOTE=Taggart;17566451]Just because there are only 6 or 7 guns in HL2 does not mean they are the ONLY WEAPONS ON THE PLANET in the HL2 Universe. You need to trim that rule down son.[/QUOTE] That might be. On the other hand though, you can't proof it in the other direction. Remember: in the HL² Universe, Combines ruled for more than 20 years. Lots of time if you ask me to destroy remaind armaments and the rest rusts without proper maintenance. But i think, i can make a small compromise: [release]- Resistance members [highlight]can[/highlight] have custom weapon models - Overwatch and Civil Protection however are restricted to their Weapons: H&K USPs, H&K MP7s, AR-2s and Franchi SPAS 12 Gauges[/release] (Updated the rules above) Oh and ... @SatanSin: Since i edited the "model"-rule, yours would count now. (If the originals are attached to the post)

Satansins are old >_>

[QUOTE=REH_BlackJack;17561623]Well, you should have read further ... i allow ragdolls from Fakefactory's Cinema Pack.[/QUOTE] They're even worse than the default models.

[QUOTE=Hunterdnrc;17572338]Satansins are old >_>[/QUOTE] I thought so. They popped up way to quickly to be new. [QUOTE=ChestyMcGee]They're even worse than the default models. [/QUOTE] Well, i honestly can't see, what the big deal is. I worked with both of 'em and non of 'em were any harder to pose for me.

[QUOTE=REH_BlackJack;17572637] Well, i honestly can't see, what the big deal is. I worked with both of 'em and non of 'em were any harder to pose for me.[/QUOTE] I can pose them just fine. Problem is they both look like shit.

I can't see very good pictures coming from this thread. ...Well, good luck! People will have trouble with no custom models

[QUOTE=ChestyMcGee;17572694]I can pose them just fine. Problem is they both look like shit.[/QUOTE] You can use reskins mate, and some reskins don't like that shitty :P

[QUOTE=Santz;17572732]You can use reskins mate, and some reskins don't like that shitty :P[/QUOTE] That's okay then. Hi-res skins are nice... unless you take it way too far *cough cough* FF.

[QUOTE=UberGamer;17572701]I can't see very good pictures coming from this thread. ...Well, good luck! People will have trouble with no custom models[/QUOTE] What do you excpect me to do, take that rule away ? Soon as i do that, alot of idiots will show up with a bunch of soldiers, shooting off-screen and tell me, they recreated the Seven-hour War or reinterpreted HL² with spongier Fan-Fiction. That would be far away from the theme and the purpose of this contest. @BigBoom: Was that short enough for 'ya ? I honestly tried to shorten it up.

I think that the reward thing is totally stupid. Your CSS models are totally cheap and probably were made (better) a gazillion times already, and the Gmod weapons thing is just...Dumb. if people want to participate, they will. don't try to make it more attractive by adding some rewards.

I see by now that Facepunch is not ready for a different kind of contest. Lets see how much will be posted by the end of the week. If it's going to be very low, I'll call off this contest and mark the Operation:"Professional Creativity" as a failure. I'll try it some time later again. Maybe in a year or two, when the majority of the comunity drop the balls and be ready for a challenge of their skills. Should it go so far, I might give a portion of the reward for those who participated. I'm not a scrimping asshole. :wink:
