Welcome to CrysisEU - The Unofficial Crysis Portal

Yesterday all servers in the U.S. went out on strike in a bid to get more RAM and better CPUs. A spokes person said that the need for better RAM was due to some fool increasing the front-side bus speed. In future, busses will be told to slow down in residential motherboards.

ICMC: Rules Update, New Jury Members & New Feature

Sunday, 20 January 2008

Vital info was released by the Crysis Community regarding the Intel/Crysis Mapping Contest, read more below! Today we would like to inform you about a little, but still important rule change. In addition we will introduce you to two new Jury members and also present you a new very useful feature on the contest web site"

Rules Change

This is only a small adjustment to the rules page, but still it has a huge impact on the whole contest. Due to the request of the community and after discussing it internally we came to the conclusion that it should be allowed to resize the Intel logos you need to place in your level in order to participate in the contest.

With this change we can guarantee that you have full creativity on the logo placement. Please keep in mind that only re-sizing is allowed while keeping the aspect ratio, overal look and the original color scheme.

The word "size" has been removed from the following rule:

- Intel® Core™ 2 Extreme logo is not allowed to be edited or modified in terms of overall look, color scheme and aspect ratio.

New Jury Members

As you might can see on the Jury sub section of the contest web site a few of the jury members are missing. These are being added within the next couple of days. Today we would like to welcome Dan Blackstone from EA Games and Matt from the InCrysis league to the jury.

Both will rate the top10 levels in the respective categories and contribute to the overall voting of the winners with their expertize and funded knowledge of Crysis and its levels.

New Feature - Important Downloads & Tutorials

As last topic we also would like to present you a brand new feature that has been implemented into the contest homepage. It is an Important Downloads and an Important Tutorials box that store very valuable and important information for all the participants.

The Important Downloads box links to the Intel logo package which includes the logo files you would need to add to your level in order to take part in this contest. The package also includes a tutorial how to apply the logo to decals.

The Important Tutorials box consits of links to the most useful tutorials regarding this mapping contest. Official tutorials for both Singleplayer and Multiplayer level design as well as custom tutorials and a tips and tricks thread created by the community are included.
