Unit Contest

oldmfunk · 04-29-2003, 12:44 PM

Hi,
I'm about to release Generals Revised V1.5, but before I do I am holding a contest, you have to create a new unit, and the top three will be included in the mod, and the creators will recieve early copies of the mod. One for USA, one for China and one for GLA. The rules are as follows:

You must create one new unit fro any of the three factions.
If it is a hero unit, only one can be buildable.
It must have a new purchase icon, and some form of tooltip.
It must be original and sensible.
Cant be to powerful or expensive.

The contest starts as of now, and will finish on Friday, when the public will give their opinions. Then on Saturday when I have added the enw units the winners will all get their copies, and the mod will be released on Sunday.
You must have MSN Messenger for file transfers.

thanks,
oldmanfunk.

I'm adding a Mech-hero-science unit (only 1 buildable). It's the Madcat, but I don't think it would be appropriate for this because it's quite powerful and not that really original.

post some info/screens and it might be kool...

Nice way to get units you cant create in your mod...

Or can you not be bothered to make 3 new units?

Rarely do I bring these things out in public, but I feel the need for it now. Oldmfunk has no place in this community imo. Why you say? Well he was a skinner for Blitz2 for a while. He joined the team, made some semi-decent skins for the german side...then promised to do the russian skins. He completed the german skins within a week, and he had more than a month to do the russian ones, yet all I kept getting was "they will be done tommorow", yet after a few weeks of that he disappeared. I would email him, and he would say "busy with school, vactation soon for 2 weeks i'll have plenty of time to get them done". Funny thing is, he didn't get them done...instead he worked on his own little mod, neglecting promises to the Blitz 2 team. After about another week, I asked him again....he said again "i'll have them done by tonight/tommorow", I emailed him again in 2 days and he said "i quit". The funny thing is, he doesn't seem to think that he did anything wrong...even when I explained to him time and time again that he set us back by weeks since we had to find another skinner to do the job.

I implore you to ignore requests for help on his mod...or to even download it.

2 comedians eh?
I've already got 16 units which I added myself with working icons and tooltips, this is just a promotion for the final release.
EDIT: Don't listen to smurfy boy, he doesnt relise that real life, and indeed my future come before a silly little mod. I gave you what you wanted and you turned nasty when I made my exit. But lets not go into that here...
Please people stick to topic.

I know full well, and tend to be very understanding when real life things come up...but when you blatently stab us in the back I have a hard time looking the other way.

-you signed up to skin
-you skinned some units
-you promised to skin more units
-during a month, not only did you say you were working on the units...but kept saying that they would be done within a day or two
-you then quit, sticking us with a full side of skins to do

I could have easily hired someone else to do the job during that month that you were supposedly working on them...but you kept saying you would do them, so I refrained.

Again I ask you not to help him with his mod, or pay any attention to it at all.
