Guten Morgen allezusammen!
Due to current inability to host images and show you graphics of what I have in mind to be created we will simply have to do with words.
I'm looking for mappers. So, to kick-start my search I've decided to hold a contest. Partly to check out the activity and potential of OTLand and the community at large, since I will be looking to hire mappers in the future I need to check out what I can get for a certain amount of $. And the quality of it, etc etc. I will also, ofcourse, want the winners map and of all other participants aswell(if asked for, the contest will be settled with screenshots alone but all participators must Guarantee that they can and will send their contribution if being asked to).
Contest Rules ( MUST READ!)
As far as I am concerned, anyone is free to take work from original Tibia and/or elsewhere and modify as they please. Und, if nobody joins the competition and some random noob posts a copy Thais Sorc-guild and Mad Mage tower from original Tibia this little noob will be 5USD richer for 1 minutes of work!
Mage-tower is a stand-alone building, separate from anything else and is located on icy mountain tile. It's dimensions should be around but not limited to 20x20 tiles. This is supposed to be a house for master sorcerers to learn spells/become wizards. Create 1-2 proper rooms for NPCs/Quests and then just unleash your creativity. Architectural stunts and new ideas are more than welcome! But give it a wizardry, icy, cold look.
Sorcerer guild should be a small village where each house has a distinct look. Theme shouldn't be too much of any special climate or groundtiles but more of a neutral character. About 4-5 houses built for 1 person(1 bed, 1 table,1 chest etc). Each of these houses should have their own sorcerer-like gear and some high-tech gadgets. While the houses could be elevated above lvl 7(preferably on rocky mountains to lvl 8-10, the main guildhall shall be located right in the middle of this naturally guarded village(mountains and cliffs/water/whatever blocks around the village leaving only 1 path open as entrance. The guildhall should be same size as mage-tower, 20x20, preferably similar design/details. Note: Similar not the same. This guildhall should start at lvl 7 and reach up to the sky and make very good use of the space. That's 6 levels stacked with a meeting room, 2 librarys, experiment-room and perhaps a meditation/ritual room aswell.
Reward is paid in 5$ BTC(!)
Deadline: End of February
