This has been long overdue, and we are happy to announce the start of our Prefab Competition!
The end goal is for you all to create builds that would be suitable for us to save and spawn it into the world at random come this next alpha. That in mind, remember to think logically when designing your build, but not to the detriment of your creativity.
We'll start the voting process on the top three(+?) winners on June 1st to see which builds will make it into A16.
Rules & Guidelines
Build must be placed on a minimum of a 2 block high, flat, surface of raised dirt. (If you wish a custom terrain, place those blocks on top of the initial dirt platform)
Build must not exceed a total of 150 in dimension. (ie: 50x50x50, 25x100x25, 70x20x60 - The second option would allow for towers etc so long as the x and z of the x,y,z are made smaller to allow for more height)
Build must not be a player-base. These are for spawning into the world at random for players to find, loot or claim
Maximum of three builds are allowed to be submitted per player
Disclaimer
All builds are subject to modifications by us after being accepted as prefabs. They will not be stylistic changes, however we may need to add/remove some lootable objects in order to make it an adequate "lootable poi".
When Your Build is Complete
There will be a secondary forum discussion opened up near the end of the month.
Participants will need to take a series of screenshots, or even better make a video of their finished work. Once you've collected enough "proof of why you should win", comment on the aforementioned post.
Max of 1 comment per build, so if you make an error and repost, delete the initial comment so I don't delete the wrong one on you.
Jessi,
I would like to request the finishing touches for my prefab:
2 x cabinet sink
1 x brass faucet
1 x shower faucet
2010 x forged steel (total to fully upgrade the cement in entrance to the ideal texture)
1 x garage door (mine no longer belongs to me after it was removed and replaced)
2,500 x plains ground (to redo the top layer of ground.)
Jessi, I would like to request the finishing touches for my prefab: - 100 Garage Door1 Plate - 8 Beverage Coolers (once you know what my build is you will understand the mass amounts of coolers) - 2 Garage Storage - 3 Cardboard Boxes - 20 Azelea Bushes (I thought I had them but was actually putting barbed versions everywhere. lol)
- 1 Supply Crate Shamway (Was not sure if we could request these) This would complete everything that I can't get and would be greatly appreciated. I'm hoping to get the build finished and a video made tonight. Thank you, J_Blatz91
Sorry Cara, missed your comment earlier.
You don't have to let players enter your build, but you'll want to take as many pictures as you can in order to entice everyone to vote for you. Leaving a little mystery could definitely make your build more fun for players to explore if it gets spawned into next map. ^.^
I'm trying to think of a way to ask this without giving away my ideas... do players have to be able to "enter" the build or can it be viewable-only?
Jessi,
I would like to request:
- 300 Blue Metal Blocks
- 84 Tile Floor 4
- 100 Concrete Tile Brown Block
- 44 Sidewalk Block
- 14 Beverage Coolers
That should get the basics down and would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
J_Blatz91
If you're in need of specific decoration blocks to polish off your build, post a request below and I will put them in my vending machine at a reasonable price. I won't fill request lists of dozens of blocks, so please try and keep it to the most crucial blocks needed to finish off your prefab.
Example list:
- 200 x Blue wood siding
- 50 x Blue wood siding wedge ramp roof and " " wedge tip
- 12 x cactus lrg
- 10 x cactus small

Edit: I'll 'like' your post after I've filled my vending-machine with your items. If someone else buys your blocks (which it would be awesome if people DIDN'T buy others' requests), just make another request and i'll restock.
