Thief: The Dark Project 20th Anniversary Contest!

Is changing the resolution of a stock texture allowed? Or are we stuck with either endlessly repeating textures at lower scales, or very blurry ones at higher scales?

[Yandros]

I would say so, as the applicable rule says nothing against it, only about creating textures which are clearly derivative.

- Contestants can combine existing stock textures to create new ones (terrain/objects/meshes). New textures need to be clearly identifiable as stock derivatives. A description of which textures you used to create new ones is welcome.

Thanks, yeah, that's the way we were thinking about it too. Our only concern was whether it would go against the spirit of the contest by not keeping it low-res like the OMs. But if no one objects, our eyes will be pleased, lol.

Would any new authors like to collaborate? If your cutting your teeth on Dromed with this contest, I can aid you with your project; just tell me what to do and I'll do it. I have experience building TG missions and extensive knowledge of Dromed. If you're struggling, I can help you get over the hump, whether it's story, architecture, lighting, ambience, etc. Any way I can make your FM a reality.

I wanted to get involved in this contest, but the current campaign I'm working on wouldn't be accepted due to custom content. I figured this would be a great way to help out a new author, give to this community of wonderful taffers, and get involved in the contest. Let me know if we can work together and make your level what you dreamed!

PM'd- I could definitely use help for my currently non-existent mission.
