Documenting Builds & Areas

Basics:

  • Documentation should be primarily done as lists but feel free to break format!
  • Builds are player creations, Areas are clusters of builds
  • Builds:
    • World x, y, z; ex: "100, 200, 150"
    • The area it is in; ex: "In 2010-2011 - Alpha Prospect"
    • Who built it (could be many people); ex: "By folkhack"
    • Transportation network info; ex: "Rail line to 2010-2011 Alpha Spawn"
    • ...then the history!
  • Areas:
    • Simply a list of links to builds
    • Optionally any history for the area that doesn't fit with a build

Uploading Images:

  • Use F1 to hide your UI if you're taking a screenshot!
  • Use a reasonable landscape resolution - the upload limit is 10Mb but we'd like to cap images at 1-4Mb if possible
  • Feel free to use shaders!
  • Get creative =)
  • Tips:
    • Use freecam for good angles
    • Use zoom to modify your FOV as you would with a camera lens: Tweakeroo zoom, Optifine zoom etc.
    • Try unique shots; here's some ideas:
      • Fully top-down
      • Showing how a build blends into it's environment
      • Composition, rule of 2/3rds, unique placement of subject
