[size=18]Challenge Details[/size]

Dream up a surreal scene for a Galactic adventure, then organize a cohesive collection of prop creations to flesh it out in a Sporecast for the [b]Surreal Setting Prop Challenge[/b]!

[b]Not sure what to make?[/b]
Start by imagining up a dreamlike (or nightmarish) setting for a galactic Adventure. You're welcome to use the following questions to find inspiration. Is your setting...

• In the future or the past?
• On an alien world, or somewhere familiar?
• Claustrophobically enclosed or dangerously open?
• Toxically waste-ridden or fanciful and fun?

[b]Got artists block? [/b]
If you're stuck and can't think of what to make, check out these surreal artists' works to get inspired by worlds they've dreamed up:

[b]Next Steps[/b]
Build a bunch of creations that will set the tone of the scene in your adventure. These can range from architectural structures such as bridges, domes and towers to small inanimate objects such as mirrors, trapdoors, or telephones.

[b]What will the challenge winner get?[/b]

A chance to be featured on Spore.com!

We'll post our favorite submissions here, then YOU get to vote for which one is your top pick! The winner may be featured if it meets our criteria for featured creations.

• It must not contain any creation parented or created by different authors.
• It must not contain any creation with an offensive creation in its lineage (any parent or child creations).
• It must not contain any creation with any links or references to other sites in the submission's tags, name, or description

Submissions that do not meet the above criteria will not be considered for the poll

[b]Rules:[/b]
• Your sporecast submission should be based on any surreal setting you've imagined
• To submit a sporecast, tag it with: [i]mcsurrealchallenge[/i] and post a link to the Sporecast here.
• You can submit as many sporecasts as you’d like
• Sporecasts must contain at least 10 assets.
• All creations in the Sporecast must be tagged with [i]GAprop[/i]
• Creations in the Sporecast can be made in any editor, but must all be made by you or members on your team!
• All submissions must be in by 11:00am PDT June 23rd 2009

[b]Optional[/b]
• Post images of the creations you've included and/or a scene that's inspired your Sporecast here!

[size=18]Challenge FAQ[/size]

[b]Q: Can I work with a team to create my Sporecast?[/b]
A: Yes. There can be up to 5 members on a team. If you're on a team, your Sporecast should also be tagged with your team name, starting with [i]Team_[/i] such as [i]Team_LlamaLovers[/i].

You should designate a team leader, who creates the entry post and publishes the Sporecast. All team member names should be included as tags on the Sporecast.

If an individual wins the challenge, his/her Sporecast will be featured. If a team wins the challenge, each team member will have a creation featured.

[b]Q: I know this is for props, can I add creatures?[/b]
A: Since it's required that all creations in your Sporecast be tagged "GAprop" please keep in mind that part of the purpose of this tag is to help others find props.

If your creature creation looks like an object, it is allowed, but you're not allowed to use just any creatures and simply tag them GAprop to make your submission eligible.

Examples of creatures that would work:

Not entirely new though. beta_psi and I ran a space civ contest a while back where you neede to do something semi-similar: create a civilization including ships, creatures, and buildings, and organize it into a Sporecast. Off topic note there.

Sporecast at http://www.spore.com/sporepedia#qry=usr-krakenmk|500227047991%3Assc-500352233175

Modular set and prop pieces for what I feel is a very surreal & spiritual environ (even though it is loosely based on real world settings in Cambodia, such as Bayon). Since Maxis has stated that animate creatures can not be part of the GA sporecast for this contest... my creatures for this GA set have now been moved into their own, separate sporecast. So all the 'props' in the entry sporecast are inanimate building pieces & statues. I am assuming that it is ok for me to add vehicles too, so long as they are intended to be sitting still as set dressing (boats tied up to a dock)?

Here is a preview image of one of the act settings. It is difficult to put pieces together appropriately outside of GA (not to mention, I didn't have any of the necessary Spore flora to add into this 'jungle' setting)! But I hope this quick collage will at least demonstrate the potential for constructing the surreal setting as your captain approaches the temple ruins.

I am already making new kinds of parts, and find the Spaceship editor to be excellent for these things, and will also use the Building Editor as well. I will adjust the older designs to match the neon green colors of the original environment for this contest. It literally takes your captain into a world that was once the pinnacle in the early 1980's, before sprites existed. A all-black planet would be perfect for this world, as [i]Battlezone[/i] did not have a colored floor but used the VG objects as terrain and things you saw in it.]]> http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/924131.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/924131.page GMT http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/924173.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/924173.page GMT http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/924402.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/924402.page GMT I might have to get in on this soon... **Bookmarks it ** ]]> http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/924952.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/924952.page GMT http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/925196.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/925196.page GMT
But how in Spore do I obtain a direct link to one of my sporecasts? I've tried everything I can think of, and just can't seem to get a direct link (just links to either my sporepedia page, or a page with my collection of multiple sporecasts, but not a link that is to one individual, specific sporecast).

Thanks in advance for your help on this one. [/quote]

I think it works by going to the sporepedia and then clicking on the particular sporecast. Going to a sporecast through your profile page doesn't seem to work for some reason.

Not necessarily. Shattari said that he made a building with a tiny door. In GA he made it the biggest he could and the door only came up to his shin. When you make buildings the biggest they can be, they tend to clip and glitch more. For pathways you have to make them big enough so the cameras don't go all crazy, so they have to be somewhat spacious. But who knows, this is just what I've read from Maxis and the GA camp.]]> http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/930486.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/930486.page GMT

Do you mean "How do I create a new Sporecast?" If so, log in, then go to your Sporepedia page. There will be a tab on the left hand side of that page under the Sporecasts heading that allows you to create a new sporecast, name it and add a brief description, then save. Once saved, you can simply drag-n-drop small sporepedia cards/pngs into the sporecast to fill it with your GA props for your surreal setting (up to 50 'building' creations may be used in constructing the setting, plus up to 50 each of 'inanimate props' created in the other editors if appropriate). Don't forget to tag each creation with 'GAprop', and also to tag the Sporecast for the challenge (if entering).

Hope this helps. If I misunderstood your question, I apologize.]]> http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/936282.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/936282.page GMT

I thought of another one
....You know how we will be able to make things invisible/visible and active/inactive when switching acts....
Well would it be possible to set a building within another building, but set the 2nd building to invisible until a certain act, so that when you come back to the building it looks completely different?

If not my whole plan is ruined

Also I got done with my first piece

It already has everything you need to make a [i]Battlezone[/i] world, but has upgraded components added for variety and platforming.

I love this idea. You could really create this effect by making interiors that look like the inner cavities of the body, then using teleporters disguised as tubes (arteries, veins, esophagi?) to travel between them.

This would be a big challenge to set up, but definitely would make for a cool Explore adventure.

To make a lot of organs, it might be better to create the "rooms" each as 1 building, but you might have to get creative on how you make a building with an organically shaped hollow interior.

I do prefer the single-room approach but what worries me is the fact that you'd have to decide whether to give it a roof or not for the placement of any additional props and creatures of course, and I prefer not making a separate roof.

I have, though, already experimented with making the bottom of the room's floor the ceiling so you only have to stack it. I hope it'll work.]]> http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/962486.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/962486.page GMT
For the interiors, medical textbooks and anatomy books should help, assuming that we are dealing with very similar biology among our creatures. Would it be a good idea if I help Virakotxa and Andeavor out with this? I am still planning on using my neon green/black [b]The Beginning World[/b] set as my personal entry for the contest. I do have ideas on how to make it work better with the system.]]> http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/962501.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/962501.page GMT
You don't really have to worry about the roof. You have two options. You can create seperate roofs as with your stacking idea. This will work fine.

You can also just scale the room up large enough that your camera can comfortably move around within it.

This isn't difficult, and is generally necessary anyway to make room enough for your avatar.

Once your camera is inside, it's very easy to see what you're doing while adding prop creations inside the room. Just drag and drop. Then use control and shift to tweak the positioning.

Thanks for the input.

For the time being, I've decided to shelf the sort of fluid, melty, organic project in favor of sort of "linear surrealism", for a 3D maze level I eventually plan to make.

Inspired by the work of neosurrealistic artist George Grie (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Grie), I've created a world of dreams where elements of the outdoors mesh and mingle with architecture.

Introducing the Dreamscape set, where nothing is what it seems. You'll find bizarre chambers that have twisted the outdoors and the indoors, you never know what will happen in one of these rooms. Only in dreams can a golden building grow out of the rocks, or a stream burst forth from the roof. More to come with this set, talismans, towers, parks, portals, and other objects to assist the adventurer in the dreamscape.

I'm only posting because I think it would be a shame for some of these sporecasts to be disallowed, due to failure by some to follow the directions (enter a set of ten or more inanimate props). Remember, this is a challenge to create a sporecast of actual props, which when assembled together would create a surreal setting in a GA... it is not a contest to create random props, nor creatures/characters for GA use.

I also got the nose/mouth section done, along with the larynx. Now you can make a continuous digestive system with this system! I will put the heart in after the contest is over, so I will let you look at what I have for the 'Fantastic Voyage' set. The captain has to actually enter the body via the nostrils of the creature!

I sincerely want to thank everyone involved with the contest for inspiring me to create out of my norm. Including all the amazing artists out there that have made sporecasts for this challenge, you all deserve much praise - your sets are wonderful. I've had a blast making this set (and my husband has enjoyed cheering me on and giving me wonderful surreal ideas, thanks Honey!)

Here's a sampling of some of my favorite pieces from the sporecast:

Oh, great. I'm so totally out of this. I don't have ten creations, because I just ran out of ideas, I didn't make a sporecast, I only tagged a few with "GAProp"...
MaxisCactus will be mad at me and I won't be in fifth place and-
Darn it. I guess some people will just have to be fools in the history of Spore, I guess. No hopes of being accepted. Just hopes of losing.

[size=4]Why did I have to misread the rules?[/size]]]> http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/1003242.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/1003242.page GMT
First, is the set of GA props a very good representation of a coherent and uniform world, both outdoors and indoors?

Second, can the parts be used to generate nearly seamless structures that appear dominating or awe-inspiring?

Third, how well can the props be used to generate a wide variety of missions (exploration, timed missions, defense, siege, extermination, etc.) with the editor?

Fourth, are the props giving an effective aesthetic feel to the surreal environment (do the parts, when put together, make the visitor feel as if he/she is visiting a strange world)?

Sometimes we attempt to create overwhelmingly complicated props that end up filling up the complexity meter quickly when placed on the planet, limiting our structures or interiors severely. So when we try these sets out on our own, we should test how many or how large the surreal setting can be defined on the planet. (This applies well to those who already have GA and can test-drive the sets on their own.)

These are just my advice for those who are going to look at the finalists.]]> http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/1004218.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/1004218.page GMT http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/1004472.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/1004472.page GMT
I was concerned about that myself, and I cannot get my copy of GA until next week sometime to try my set out. I'm so relieved to know that I will be able to use the set I've created and not worry about it maxing out the meter because of the individual props being too complex.

Thanks again!

@quantamania, great tips. I agree that when voting we should most definitely consider if the props make the visitor feel like they have walked into a surreal world!

Good luck to all the wonderful creators out there that have put so much into this challenge - your sets are all truly wonderful! I'm sure picking finalists will be very difficult!

[size=7]...But, well, about me, my hopes still aren't all that up. I didn't read the rules right. I didn't tag them or put them in a sporepedia. And I ran out of ideas so I only have eight, proving that I probably won't be featured at all, or even comm-oh, nevermind.[/size]]]> http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/1012327.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/1012327.page GMT
Yeah... I noticed that too. I didn't think you were permitted to continue adding new stuff to the challenge sporecast after the close of entries??? Doomnova, the sporepedia is showing creations in your cast with dates of 6-24, 6-25, etc.. If you want to continue to add to the shared set, just for GA use (not for the contest), then perhaps you should do so by way of creating an entirely separate sporecast? Or simply hold off on sporecasting the remainder of the set (all pieces that were shared to sporepedia after the deadline) until after the challenge is over. Just a thought. ]]> http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/1013518.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/1013518.page GMT
Just that the sporecast should have atleast ten props by 11:00am PDT June 23rd 2009 to enter them to the contest.]]> http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/1014043.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/1014043.page GMT
I would take that as meaning [b]'all'[/b] of the entry/entries (completed sporecasts/creations) needed to be submitted by the 6-23-09 deadline. Maybe it is a matter of semantics, but the common definition of 'all' that I am familiar with means 'every part'... not 'a portion of'.

Again, not trying to be argumentative at all. Just wondering where you read that it was indeed ok to continue to add new material to your entry after the deadline has passed (maybe it was buried in this thread, and I totally missed that change?). ]]> http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/1014336.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/1014336.page GMT

Wow, I'm surprised that team Darkbarren didn't make it in! I thought your set rocked guys - it was awesome!

Honestly I don't know who to vote for now, all of the sets chosen are fantastic!

I am currently working on a new science-based collection, as you may have seen in my profile tagline. This time, the reduction of your captain in size is much more extreme than when he/she/it was shrunken down to the size of a cell! I will create a Sporecast for it, as it is going to use creatures to a good effect. Your captain will actually be reduced down to the size of a molecule in the new [b]Nano World[/b]!

I appreciate your support for my [b]Inside the Creature[/b] collection. Once the finals are over, I will upgrade it with new additions and revised models to make it easier to work with in GA. I had built it without really getting into the adventure editor (deadline was right at the release of GA), so the set will really get better with what I know about the editor.]]> http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/1034185.page http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/preList/30585/1034185.page GMT Wow, did not expect that!

Can I vote "none of the above"? They all look like those one-use "specialty" pieces you get in LEGOs these days.

I'd much prefer a set that contains generic, unpainted shapes that can be combined to make whatever I want.

Thanks to everyone that voted for my set, from the bottom of my heart I am very grateful.

When I finish the adventure I'm working on now, I promise next will be a very "surreal" adventure with the Dreamscape set.

Thanks Maxis for an awesome contest, I cannot thank you enough for giving me the inspiration to come up with the Dreamscape.
