Does tile edits mean we can make tiles? Or just the graphics of tiles?
-Strike
EDIT: Also we can edit pallets and stuff like that before right?
Sorry If I am confusing anyone, tile edits means graphics of the tiles, so ideally you would create them in paint and then import them on the 24 hour mark but I have been abit none descript about that and you might be able to actually create the tiles in the quest since I know that can be time consuming (but Ill leave that up to you guys to discuss) and yes you can edit palettes but preferably outside of ZC.
I... think I might be able to do this.
Clarify for me:
When you say "tile-set (tile edits only, no editing the quest)," do you mean that I can assemble custom tile sheets in Paint, but have to wait until the beginning of the 24 hours to import the sheets into ZQuest and make them into combos?
Then you say something about submitting customized tile-sets to the database before the start of the contest - is that implying that people who compile their preferred tile-set with whatever extra tiles and combos they want, and have it officially posted, can get a head start? I mean, I could take a default tile-set, load it with a lot of material from the loose tiles database, combo it all up, and submit it to the tile-set database as an expanded set. But since it's specifically for me and what I might try in this contest, it would seem like a misuse of the database to make a submission for the sole purpose of letting me get a head start with all my extra combos in place, while other people would have to wait for the start of the 24 hours to do a similar thing. And if some contestants can do a pre-made tile-set publicly, should the contestants without enough material to justify a new tile-set release not be able to do the same thing privately? Or am I completely missing what you mean?
Sorry! Originally what I meant by that was that you can use content you have submitted but only aslong as it was before I posted this thread otherwise people could do exactly what you just said, which I was was trying to avoid
I'm very interested in this... but I have an issue. I work for 9 hours in the 24 hour time period specified, and I've gotta sleep at some point too. Would it be possible to work on my entry during a different 24 window (like the Thursday before or Saturday-Sunday)?
Yeah I reckon that will be completely fine. Russ and Anthus you guys can work from Saturday 6:00 PM if you guys like aswell as anyone else that might have work or other commitments, there will be no difference as long as you guys stick to the 24 hour bracket aswell.
Is collaboration allowed? I kinda want to enter, but I don't want to commit to a solo project, but I'd gladly joint partner with someone else.
Hmmm, I actually never thought about a collab. I am not entirely sure about it however. Since you are exploring your own quest style. And having 2 people working on a quest might give it an advantage.
I will leave it up to you guys to discuss if thats alright, if everyone else is fine with a collab then go nuts
