Maybe it's been stated before and I missed it, but what kind of GeForce 2 will be used to judge entries?


I'm not even sure if any of the judges even have a GeForce 2 level card anymore. If you're asking because of hardware support for certain graphics features, then let's say the top-of-the-line GeForce 2.

I know someone mentioned shaders before.. you can use shaders, but it is probably best to stick with earlier versions.

Ok, awesome... So can I safely assume that if it runs on a GeForce4 MX, it's good to go?

You know, the frightening thing is I was already making a game that fits into this contest...

GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!!!

Anyways, is there any certain rating the game has to stay within? Does it have to be family acceptable?

I totally wish that I had time to work on a half decent entry. As if things weren't busy enough as it is with school...

Seriously though, I can tell this contest is going to kick butt. Is anyone willing to show off some pre-beta screenshots, or should I divulge in editing some of the 4E3 screenshots to match the situation?

Do what you think you need to do to make the game fun. We are not the ESRB.

HOWEVER, if your game contains anything that would only sell legally in an "Adult bookstore", then you will be DQ'd.

Once I've got something worthy of showing I'll consider posting some screenshots. [smile]

It does not have to be the stereotypical definition of pirates, but they need to be discernable as pirates as through the dictionary definition.
