Animation Contest

This is a contest for animations only

Standard model will be a peasant

Judging will be based on the following criteria
a) Smooth- Do they look good?
b) Usefulness- How may these animations be used?
c) Amount- How many are there?

The percent equation will look like this
a + 1/2c = P
2b

No Animation transfers

Do not use any other model besides a peasant
All other models will be judged Minus 10 points

This contest will end November 31
Winner will get a special Image for themselves

thats a pretty stupid idea....
#3
As animations start to rack up in one character like swimming and flying gets easier to transfer alot of animations

In other words
your favorite character can have the morph ability, swim, fly or eat tree without having to do you own animations

I personnally will not use it, but this contest is still valid

You realize how stupid this is... If i copied the peasents animations 999 times using Oinkerwinkles programs, I would win. The lower the usefulness, the higher the score. Id suggest changing the formula for grading...
#5
Considering he said "No animation transfers", you wouldn't win, you'd be disquallified. And Tail of the Wyrm: STOP SAYING EVERYTHINGS STUPID, OR WE'LL SEE HOW STUPID IT IS WHEN YOU'RE WARNED FOR FLAMING >=D

Re: Animation Contest

Formula1
a) Smooth- Do they look good?
b) Usefulness- How may these animations be used?
c) Amount- How many are there?

The percent equation will look like this
a + 1/2c = P
2b


if i get 10/10 on smoothness and same grade on usefulness, i get a rating of .5? this means if its completly useless, but very smooth, i get a very good score?

animation..i have tho like an animation done on a gfx program
#7
ya thats right

I'm sorry new equation

ab+c=P
4 2[/u]
#8
I got 2 questions:
1. All animations must be new even default(walk, attack, death, etc...)?

2.Animationg the portrait will give additional points?
#9
It may not be as useful but yes they count

Animating the portriat would be interesting
#10
Are you going to suppply the unit fully rigged and all?
#11
Yes i would, however i'm thinking about stopping the contest since there will be very low quality submissions and lack of many

People would much rather color then take the harder path (the road less traveled by, and for good reason [no recognition])
