WORLDS Challenge FAQ

If i live in Quebec can I still enter to gain exposure and possibly get a job? Or am I prohibited to even enter and make a post about my environment?

We can't force you out of the contest If you're uneligible to participate and still do, then you're technically disqualified for not following the rules, but if you don't mind then be our guest!

I was so pumped up about this contest but now I'm really confused. I live in India. And it's not in the list of countries. I read your reply saying I can post everything from my current account but have to state that someone else (in this case, my friend in an eligible country) won the competition, so you can send the prizes to them?
Is that right? Or is it the other way around where I have to create a new account with their address and then clarify that it is them who won the contest?

[atmikaatmana]

But the moderator just said you can still apply even if you are not in the list of countries. I'll be disqualified if i'm not from the list of countries?

Which measurement do we need to use when creating an image? pixel/inch or pixel/centimeter?

Final Illustration

Dimensions: at least 2048 pixels in height or width, format of your choice
This is your final illustration depicting your environment in all its glory
Matte paintings are accepted
You may use 3D for the construction of your environment only - no 3D objects or materials should be visible in your final illustration
Your environment should have a clear point of interest (focal point)
Minor supporting characters/creatures are allowed but they should not be the focal point

this should help you. Check out the submission requirements here

[Tesat]

Thank you for your reply but my question was about the tab in PS when creating a file. You can select pixels per inch or pixels per cm. I didn't know which one to choose

[Acolet]

@tbrk Both pixels per inch and pixels per cm are important when printing your digital file. As we only need the digital format, this parameter is up to you

Hey guys,
I still don't quite get it on how one can enter if he isn't from the eligible country?
You ask someone you know from an eligible country to create a tread and then you can post progress yourself?

[Acolet]

@sanzharmurzin you can post everything yourself and from your account - only in case you win, that person has to state that she / he was the one who entered and will receive the prices (for you).

[rahulmech93]

i am from india, so tell me please am eligible or not for this world Challenge???????almost i completed this challenge but last min only i read eligible question in that indian country is not there.

[rahulmech93]

And one more thing should i have to show old and new civilisation ??

[Acolet]

@rahulmech93 India is not on the list of eligible countries. You can participate, but are not eligible to win any prizes.
Please also read the Rules. You cannot just enter a finished piece.

Hay @Acolet
This morning I tried to post my final result, in 2d section. However, when I posted my image, somehow cubebrush reduced the size. For example I posted in 4810x2048 px, but somehow the size changed to a smaller size.. I have also tried to edit my thread, tried to re-uplod but it gives me the same result. (could you look my thread?)
I think this is strange. I saw other members who posted more than 5k pixel dimension and it seemed there were no problem, similar like their original image

[hebronppg]

@Acolet
btw, when I tried to upload my concept sheet (2048px) it reduced to 1638px X 1638 px. The rule is we must collect our concept sheet exactly in 2048 px. So if the size reduced, it looks like i dont follow the rule.

Does anybody meet the same problem with me?? Back to several weeks ago, in my experience, when i tried to upload my progresses, there was no problem, all exactly in the same size.

Thank you

[Acolet]

@hebronppg Hi! The forum resizes pictures that are too big - not in dimensions, but in file size (kB). You will need to make the file size smaller - either make the image a bit smaller, or compress it a bit.
Hope this helps, let me know if this doesn't solve your problem.

[hebronppg]

@Acolet
Thank you so much for your kind information. The big file size will kill the server I guess.
Btw, I think I have done re upload my images.

So, what did I do?
I resized the size from "Save for Web (legacy)", then played with the parameter. Although the quality of images compressed a bit, but the file size reduced, and the dimension still similar liked your original one.

Hi! For 3D category only requirements for final post is the 2048px+ image and video/marmoset viewer frame, right?

If so, and if it's not too time consuming or hard, can you tell is it formalized how it should be in this thread? It will be kinda stupid to make and entry and fail to actually participate because final post isn't written in a required way.

Thanks.

[Acolet]

@Bohdan_Lvov no problem :). Yes, your entry is all right.
