For some reason I cannot post submissions on my PMC account. Today is the last day I can post before the deadline. I may not be able to submit it though.
I don't really know, this happened to me about a few weeks ago and wasn't able to fix it until about yesterday. So sorry to say, but I think you won't be able to make it by tomorrow, but keep trying anyways.
I know I wont be able to join this contest due to not having a good computer to even play minecraft. but.. if I do make a map with this, then ill post it.
You can ofcourse change it, but the only way to ensure the bottom of the "clouds" were wool aswell is by setting the underground material to wool. This also affects the material underneath the stone/grass. Though this ofcourse wouldn't be visible unless you're cutting into the terrain, which is fine, but whatever you expose i guess you need to fix.
Ok thanks for the answer! I will finally re-think what I was about to build to be able to just use the terrain as it is with the less possible modifications.
So it says you shouldn't edit the terrain much but are you allowed to flatten out an area so you can build or do you just build around it... can I destroy some grass (not the blocks)???
Yes, you can change the terrain. The rule of using the terrain is intended so builds can be compared and people don't create wildly different things. It's a framework, not a cage.
Okay, the rules are a little iffy, so I want to check something. I know you can't import schematics of previously made things, but here's my question: Let's say I built something a while back. For the sake of example, let's pretend it's a dragon. I made this dragon significantly before July, but I still want to have a dragon in my contest entry, and I like the dragon I made. Am I allowed to RECREATE this dragon in the contest world? If so, can I then copy that version and paste it elsewhere in the design? I know dragons aren't really the type of thing you'd duplicate, so maybe it's a bad example, but the question still stands: can you recreate something you previously made, or do you have to make everything from scratch?
Anything you did before the start of the contest, not for this contest, is OUT. Whether you published it or not, remaking it isn't allowed either, since it wouldn't be made for this contest. The rules are not iffy. Interpretation and enforcement is iffy. If someone can show you reused something from a previous build, or can raise enough suspicion, the entry would be disqualified.
There have been submissions which have been disqualified over this, some judges do give out warning and give you some time to change your submission to remove the parts which are considered copied, but this is not required obviously. This is a serious rule ;) don't get on the wrong end of it.
Okay, thanks for clearing that up. I haven't actually published anything involving the thing I wanted to use, but I'll be honest and not use it. By the way, I love the map ;)
Is there a way to add a video WITHOUT having a youtube account? I can make videos, but since my mom doesn't trust Youtube I can't get one. Any ideas?
P.S: Does anyone know if you can team up with other people? My brother wants to help me but idk if you can team up. Please let me know if you know! Thanks!
Teamwork: you can recruit help from others but you are the mastermind/team leader. They must understand that only you can enter the final project and potentially win. If there is significant drama about who created the project, we will disqualify it.
So yes you can use teamwork, and I dont think there's another way to put up videos on here. Good luck!

you need to extract it from the zipfile, right click the zipfile, there should be an extract option. if there isnt, download Winrar or a similar program.
It's probably best not to. It's still a texture pack, and they could disqualify you. So you want to stay on the safe side, just in case they don't allow it. :)
take a look at the contest rules, it says no thir party texturepacks. since default has no special connected textures, its no use. you can turn on connected textures to make glass look smooth, but thats where it ends.
