  Legacy Files Retexture Contest
This Page has been viewed 1,757 times


|About|

Legacy Files are holding a contest to see who is the master of retexturing and reskinning models out there. There seems to be many who wish to claim the title so if you want to be known as the "King of the Retexture" wink then read on.

|Requirements|


  • If you are going to do a retexture of a non-stock vessel then get permission to do so.
  • This is open for any ship, planet, station, or background. Weapons will be dealt with in a different Contest.
  • There are no real technical requirements. Just remember that if you are changing the engine textures the glows are also part of the textures, so updating them will make your retexture better suited.


|Tools you may need|


|How is the Winner Selected?|

Winning entry will be chosen on several aspects.

  • How their textures deviate from the originals, i.e. the more unique the better
  • The obvious quality of the textures. How they look on their subject model
  • The amount of retexturing done..sticking on a red stripe is not going to help you win it
  • Don't limit yourself to just ships - Stations, Planets and backgrounds could win it. The overall winning texture will be deemed as the best, there will also be 4 sub-category winners for the Station, Planet, Ship and Background entries.


Entries will be judged by the Legacy Files Staff, some external staff from other sites may also be consulted if necessary. There is no special preference, anyone can enter and anyone can win.

We will release your entries in the run up to the closing date in mod packs and we will release the winner with the title of "Legacy Files Retexture Contest Winner" so people will get the chance to see and use your entries in their game.

|Helpful tips|

Obviously you've got some amount of material to work on, including Stations and Backgrounds.. Stations and Backgrounds are a great way to work with retextures and are the dark horses of this competition, if done properly they could be some of the best.

Be creative, picture what you want to see as a final result and try to achieve it..Don't be afraid to use your imagination.

Also consulting this tutorial may help you out a bit.

Here are some really cool examples:
U.S.S. Monitor
Section 31 Galaxy
Ballista/Valhalla Classes
Spector Refit

|How to Enter|


All entries are to be emailed to brianATstlegacyfilesDOTcom with the title of the email beginning with "Legacy Retexture Contest". You must also put your Filefront Username in the email. There is no limit to the amount of submissions you may make, you can do as many as you wish and send in as many as you wish.

|Prize/Award|


The one thing up for grabs is sheer bragging rights for being the winner of the first Legacy Files Retexture Contest, even if you don't win entering the contest will benefit your modding skills.

|Closing Date|

Closing date for the contest is Friday 30th November.

Winning Retexture will be shown on the Saturday the 1st of December so if you want to win then get going!

The winning one will more than likely be one that makes the model look different.. the more the difference between the original and the retexture - the better... remember backgrounds, planets and stations are also on the playing field for this contest!
