Will the visual side of the cars be judged in automation or beam? Because some of my materials dont export correctly on beam.
Automation, if anything ill just make a judging video using beam footage as a background
When can we expect the results to be posted?
Probably in a week unless something pops up. Already in the process of setting up the judges sheet.
Alright, Final total of cars
6 Fullsize
11 Midsize
5 Compact
Judging is very much underway. With that being said, how should I format the results?
- YouTube Video
- Forum Post
- Forum Post, with video after (a week or so after the post)
And for the video so long as your computer can handle it (mine starts struggling at 10-12 cars) you could take the derby cars an run a hotlap AI race in some of your favorites around the big 8 in the demo derby arena map on beam its a blast with just 3 or 4 cars i could onl imagine 22 seperate machines
Is it possible to have a different file for this car? The one you sent is not importing correctly and I want to be able to judge it properly!
What is happening?
the car exports with all the custom colors set as red
I tried re importing it, It did not fix the issue
that would likely be a missing materials mod, as Automation doesnāt warn you for missing paint mods in comparison to every other mod type.
I see⦠If he tells me the mod, Ill try to fix it. otherwise I will base voting off of the pictures.
Iāll fix it when I come home.
Ok guys, hereās results, HOWEVER, because this is my first time running a comp, and I dont want to offend anyone if they didnāt get judged in a way they see fair, I will allow you guys to vote on whether or not to do public voting. this would be extra points on top of what the original score was.
Should we do public voting?
- YES
- NO
also started on the video for the compacts.
Feedback is appreciated!
didnt really get the note about the midsize being too old. The inspirations where including plenty of 70s cars and everything is thrown in these derbyās. Other than i got confused with the naming convention but i didnt get notified about it being wrong instead got a penalty on my score that i dont feel reflects the build in any way
Donāt want to sound selfish. These are my observations from my submissions
Im sorry but i dont understand why my car got 6/10 in Asthetics, considering the ratings for the other submissions and the reasons for the worse rating.
So, 4 points less for windows (fair enough) and a vent texture? I know this might not be the only reason, but the explanation given makes me assume that these 2 criticisms are the only reason why.
For the next part please keep in mind that it is not my intention to insult or degrade the other peoples submissions, im just pointing out things that seem weird or unlogical to me.
Why do 2 Submissions where your first criticism is ātoo little detailā have a 7 or even an 8? Having too little detail is a much bigger criticism than just a frickin vent texture. And if you love the theme, as you have stated, why is it rated so low?
I know that my submission was not winner material, but i have the feeling that my car was rated too harshly when considering the ratings that the other cars recieved. Having THE lowest rated car in this entire competition was not something i would have expected (excluding the joke entry).
congrats to the winner and dont take this as an attack or an insult to you nolan, its meant to be criticism, and if i came across too harsh, it was not my intention.
Hey what do you know solid mid field through and though hell yeah ill take it and for the āred Barronā although i do agree aint nobody running in 2006 but the whold lore was it was a derby car that competed back in the 60s and 70s then was the coolest barn find ever in my opinion so it kinda made sense in my mind
yay, my covid car made the cut haha
Iām seriously surprised the Alden made it to second place. I was pretty much expecting it to get thrown in the trash the second it entered the arena.
On second thought, maybe I should try being more optimistic.
Congratulations to Maverick74 for winning everything!!
No its absolutely correct to have criticisms! I need to go back and redo some of the stuff after looking at it. hopefully adding the votes from you guys will fix it a bit. which BTW I am working on getting a poll out for voting very soon!
