Explosive Screenshot Contest!
Contest Information
As we get ever closer to the release of Crysis:Warhead we’ve decided to get you all in the mood to take on the role of Sergeant Michael “Psycho” Sykes by running a competition based on explosions that Psycho would be proud of!
The Competition
The idea is that you get in game and the person who takes the best screenshot of an explosion will win some great prizes. The competition will have 2 categories:
1. Most Destructive Explosion
This is the kind of explosion where everything in an area blows up and bodies are flying all around.
2. Most Beautiful Explosion
This explosion is the kind that you gasp at with awe, preferably from a distance, just to make sure you don’t get hurt.
The competition will be open from Thursday 7th August at 1pm CET (GMT+1) and finish on the 22nd August at 9am CET (GMT+1)
Rules:
• Each person can only do 1 entry PER category.
• Please post the pictures as an attachment in THIS correct thread.
• Screenshots are not allowed to be edited in any editing software other than to be re-sized.
• In the case someone does not follow the rules from above the Crymod Staff Team will delete the contribution of this user.
• The explosions can be created by you or someone else.
• It must be an ingame screenshot, although it can be a mod
• Editing your post/screen is allowed till end of the competition.
Prizes!
Exclusively for the first time ever, the top prize will receive a Crysis Warhead T-shirt!
The winners from each category will also receive:
1st Place
Crysis Warhead T-shirt, Crysis Lanyard, Crysis Notepad and Crysis Stickers.
2nd Place
Crysis T-shirt, Crysis Lanyard, Crysis Notepad.
3rd Place
Crysis T-shirt, Crysis Lanyard.

I got one question, can we use Sandbox to make the explosion scene or do we have to capture the screenshot ingame, playing Crysis campaign?

Can we change our entries before the contest ends? And do they have to be explosions we created?

They should be from ingame but can be from a mod.

No, they can be any explosions and "Editing your post/screen is allowed till end of the competition."

Might have a go at this one...
Can we withdraw entries and enter a new one? Or are we stuck with the first picture we submit?
Also, can we fiddle with the particle editor, or are we only to use vanilla particles?

How do you check if a screenshot is ingame and not from sandbox ?

The point is it has to be from a players perspective.

Yes, i'm surprised how many questions there are, no one wants to just go and blow things up they want to ask 20 questions first?

Was a bit eager to enter at first but then I realized that I would probably get badly beaten up by friends if I had a Crysis T-shirt on me, so I´ll pass.
But it will be fun to see the the end results.
