DLC - D'ni Location (Creation) Contest

[Justintime9]

Hmm, that's interesting, I didn't recognize the beginning. Did you get permission from him to use it?

[Tweek]

Knew you were going to ask that.

Those tracks were freely available on the internet back when I got them, without any kind of licensing applied to them (creative commons etc) so I figured they'd be fine to use.

[kaelisebonrai]

I agree with Tweek on this, I see no reason not to use it. =)

[Justintime9]

Ah, that sounds fine then. Just to be clear, I don't mean to be the copyright police or anything. Just wasn't sure about the legal stuff attached to it. It's a pain to be sure, but very necessary. Anyway, great work once again, it really feels like D'ni. (the skeleton is a nice touch too )

[Tweek]

Wouldn't matter to me if you were being the copyright police.

I'd have still released it, stopped giving a damn long ago, prefer building what I want how I want, if people like it cool, if not oh well.

[kaelisebonrai]

Ahoy, all!

Just to give everyone a reminder... Contest closes at the END of August, 2010. =)

Current Judges, are: Paradox, Tweek, and, maybe (iirc) Tahg. Anyone else wish to participate in the judging? =)

I just had a "bad" moment a little while ago and rushed over here to check the "rules" of the DLC, hehehehe. About gave myself a heart attack.

Been doing quite a bit of work on this since I've been freed up for now to get some work done on it. Suddenly a thought floated across my head:

"D'ni Location Contest"

.........uh.....uh......wait......does that mean IN the Cavern? (IE on the lake or surrounding walls), or did that mean ANY location that the D'ni were (IE a small Age that had a D'ni Hat Factory in it, all though personally I'd be more interested in a D'ni Beer Factory....) ?

But looking over the rules I saw that it's pretty much where ever the D'ni had established themselves. Whew! Got to stop giving myself heart attacks like that.

Actually mine isn't a seperate Age, but it's not right in the Cavern either, but it is under New Mexico, heheheheheheh.

[kaelisebonrai]

It needs to be on the Age of D'ni (aka, Earth =P) =P And it needs to be D'ni related. =)

Other Ages are not permitted. =)

EDIT: Note that this does not necessarily mean the lake and surrounding walls... but it MUST be d'ni themed, and on the Age of Earth, so, surrounding tunnels, etc, etc.. are fine, under new mexico is fair enough, i guess, etc. but HAS to be D'ni related, and on the Age of D'ni/Earth.

[D'nial]

Errrrgh, it's been months since I've done any work on my D'ni area at all. I'm having a lot of difficulty just figuring out what tools I'm going to use to construct each element of my Age. And after that, there's still texturing, lighting and rigging to be done. I don't know if I'm cut out for finishing this contest on time, much less the core work of Age building.

[kaelisebonrai]

You can do it!

Even if you don't make it for the DLC? Keep trying, I'd always love to see more D'ni locations/Ages.

Keep on tryin' =)

Given enough practice, and time spent learning? Everyone can do it - have faith in yourself =)
