NWN2 Map Contest
Posted: Wed Apr 11, 2007 11:02 pm
Have an artistic bent? Have a flair for the outdoors? Want to have your area appear in the next version of Neversummer?
Well here's your chance! Using the NWN2 toolset, design an exterior area with the dimensions of 8x4 and submit it by April 27th, 2007. Entries will be judged on their technical merit (texturing, terrain shaping, placeable usage, etc), creativity, and playability.
The area submitted should have one entrance and one exit spot designated and should be intended for either solo or party encounters. Areas submitted should be general in nature (a mountain pass, a forest, a swamp, high meadow, etc) rather than specific (ie - no 'this is my interpretation of Neversummer City' or 'Castle Chuck Norris'). Since the map is small, as much of the main walkable area should be as useable as possible while striking a balance with keeping it interesting.
Winners of the contest will receive one item of their choice, a trip to the DM reward area, adoration of the masses, and their area being used in the next incarnation of Neversummer. And who knows, perhaps courtship from the NS dev staff.
To submit your area, export it to an ERF file along with 2-3 images (or links to images) of your area. PM me (Flailer) and I'll give you further instructions on getting it to me.
God knows you guys play this game enough - surely you've picked up on some map design over the years. Lets see what you can do!
