THE CONTEST IS OVER

The contest series is over. Unfortunately the contest was a complete disaster/failer due to lack of interest.

Only one entry was submitted by TL.net user Prillan.
He made an Sc2gears plugin ScoreScreenSave which automatically shows a dialog at the end of games where you can enter score screen data which are not available in the replays. You can do this later at any time too.
The plugin calculates the SQ (Spending Quotient) values of the players. You can also export the data.

You can download it here: http://bayfiles.com/file/4yg3/cxhHHZ/SSSaver_1_01.zip
Recommended mirror #1: http://www.mediafire.com/file/iii33ycccna8z7a/SSSaver_1_01.zip

By the contest rules the Bronze package is awarded to Prillan.




Today I launch a series of Sc2gears contests. There are multiple contest categories. Everyone can participate in any of them, even with multiple entries.

If you don't know what Sc2gears is: Sc2gears home page, Sc2gears thread

CATEGORIES (Categories are detailed below.)

1) Create a "How to use Sc2gears" video
2) Write an Sc2gears Manual
3) Create new Sc2gears Icon and Logo
4) Write a plugin for Sc2gears

PRIZES

12 winners will be awarded (3 in each category) with prizes worth a total of 100 USD offered by me:

1st place:
. . . [image loading] GOLD Sc2gears Database package (worth 15 USD; 2 GB storage enough for ~40,000 replays)
2nd place:
. . . [image loading] SILVER Sc2gears Database package (worth 8 USD; 1 GB storage enough for ~20,000 replays)
3rd place:
. . . [image loading] BRONZE Sc2gears Database package (worth 2 USD; 200 MB storage enough for ~4,000 replays)

If you don't know what Sc2gears Database is, check it out here: Sc2gears Database

DEADLINE

February 29, 2012

-You can give away your prize to anyone if you do not want to use it.
-Entries must be sent to me via email (my email is on the About dialog inside Sc2gears)



CATEGORY #1: "How to use Sc2gears" video

Task: Create a "How to use Sc2gears" video starting with downloading and extracting Sc2gears, followed by setting it up. Show/explain the most common and useful features of Sc2gears and present most of the features in a logical order (the more the better).

Notes:
-The video has to be provided as a file. It will be uploaded to YouTube by me (to avoid potential abuse), but credit will be given of course.
-Use HD quality if possible.
-Talk during the video, explain what happens or why you do this and that.



CATEGORY #2: Sc2gears Manual

Task: Write a Manual for Sc2gears. Describe how to set it up, what the different settings mean, how to use it, describe its features etc.

Notes:
-Both a PDF and an HTML version is desirable (PDF to download, HTML to host it online or browse inside Sc2gears).



CATEGORY #3: New Sc2gears Icon and Logo

Task: Create images for Sc2gears.

The following images are required:
-Application EXE icon (ICO file containing the icon in multiple sizes 64x64, 48x48, 32x32, 16x16)
-Application Window icon (PNG file in size of 64x64, should be the same picture as the application exe icon)
-Favicon for the Sc2gears Database web interface (ICO file in size of 16x16, should be the same picture as the application exe icon)
-Animated GIF logo for the about dialog inside Sc2gears (Help menu => About)

-The Animated GIF logo can be basically any size (should be no smaller than 350x48 pixels).
-Use transparent images in all cases (alpha channel).



CATEGORY #4: Plugin for Sc2gears

Task: Create a plugin for Sc2gears.

Notes:
-You have to use the Plugin API 2.7 (and you're not allowed to use deprecated stuff...)
-You can choose what is the purpose of the plugin, it can be fun, interesting, useful...
-Try to keep the size of the plugin small (e.g. do not use big external libraries/jars).
-Must be a stable plugin, cannot cause system instability or failures.
-Source code release is a plus.

Looks interesting! I'm working on a plugin I might submit depending on how much work I can put on it before the deadline.

Anyone looking to contribute to the SC2 community, SC2gears is a really amazing and underappreciated program that definitely deserves your work... so well made and so many useful features!

Sc2gears Database description

There is no available plugin list. If you're referring to example plugins, the Plugin API archive contains example plugins (available on the downloads page).

Sc2gears 8.9 has been released with Map attributes and with Plugin API 2.7.

Details are in the Sc2gears thread.

This new version is now mandatory for the entries. The Plugin API 2.7 adds some new methods to ease the job of the developers making plugin entries.

A gentle reminder: one month is remaining till the deadline.

The time is still enough even if you haven't started working on an entry.

I know. It's not that hard. I've basically never written anything in Java earlier and the code is a mess but it works

Oops, didn't know that. It's just temporary anyway, I'll fix something more permanent.
