Last week I missed the WTE and the complaints and questions of some people this week gave me a funny idea for this week's WTE theme: "A Guessing Game". The idea this week is that we put the WTE in reverse: you guys get to make a terrain that adheres to a certain theme, and it is then up to everybody else to guess what the theme is. For example: someone may put up a screenshot of a grass pasture with flowers, and people may guess "Pasture" or "Grassy Knol" while the actual theme the author had in mind was "Peace".
This may be hard to do, but I think it could be fun. Good luck, and enjoy yourselves!
Since we got some positive replies to this WTE but not much in the contribution department, I'll simply be extending this for another week to allow people to whip some stuff up.
That thing is epic. It's death bro, coming for you in this dark floating atmosphere of bright green acid, floating rocks and sharp crystals. The angle of view is also really interesting. Crazy nice :D
Sidenote, we're are getting close to WTE 200. It probably been longer between WTE 101 to 179 than WTE 1 to 100... And this is why I'll start gathering content from past WTEs like I did by myself for the first WTE recap. However this time, I want to make it even more epic. I got a new comp this year and overall, it's going much much freaking much better than my old one. I'll ask for those who participate in WTE and still has their maps used. I'll try to add in some camera trigger stuff and make a better moving visual than pictures only. I'm not yet fully ready for it and this is just a kind of pre-post to get some maps for those who will see this. So yeah, just know that I want and will do my best to make something with my little knowledge in video making.
Wow, I was just getting nostalgic watching that, then came here to mapster to check out the current WTE and boom here I see you planning on making a new one, if that isn't some Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon. By the way, I might be able to make some sort of new terrain for it, we'll see.
Sounds like a really cool idea. I'd be quite interested to see how it all turns out, especially given all the new terrains we've had since HotS launched.
I get the feel that people don't have enough time, so why not do a weekly terraining exersize next time that is themed where you are only allowed to spend 1-2 hours on a terrain, and no matter how complete/incomplete it is you stop, take a pic and post it lol
(it sounded better as theory in by head, but in practice it may be bad)
I been out on a private contract that only allows me to be home ones a week or every 3 weeks only one day at home sad to say i miss participating on WTEs hopefully i be back soon.
Weekly Terraining Exercise #179
Hey people!
Last week I missed the WTE and the complaints and questions of some people this week gave me a funny idea for this week's WTE theme: "A Guessing Game".

This looks fun. Gotta try it. And if it's fun enough, what about adding it to StarParty :P

Get to it, you slackers! :D
@Mozared: Go
Alas, I've been very busy lately. No time for the WTEs. :(
Alright, fine then, have yourself a themed terrain :)
This consists of two themes that I believe are blatantly obvious lol
@joecab: Go
Is the theme "The popular orange/blue contrast"? :P
There's a lot of green in there too, though. Maybe 'Colours' or 'Crystals'?
@Mozared: Go
what is everything but a few doodads made out of? ;)
but yea, there is a lot of blue/orange contrast, and it is so popular because it works well!
Sorry, I was really sick.
Uh, I don't think I will be able to join in, cause I'm going away for the rest of the week starting tomorrow morning.

God damn it's very sad because I didnt have the time to make WTE for few months but I'll be so much ready when I'll have time!
