Re: An Impactful Customs Creator
Another excellent entry, LC. And, like the other recent ones, I encourage readers to consider this only as something that builds on earlier entries in the series. If you cannot, or will not, exchange meaningful critical analysis with others, and if you do not have some competence actually playing the game, then banging on the door of the C3V (or HoSS, or whatever) will likely avail you nothing.
Another good entry, LC. Thank you for doing this! |

Re: An Impactful Customs Creator
I was thinking of making heroes that have legendary variants. They will have 4 special powers and I will put a star next to their name in the form of this *.

This is a thread about what it means to be an impactful customs creator, specifically for the discussion of Lamaclown's short articles on the subject. If you'd like to make a post somewhere else about how to play a scenario with these alternate rules, I'd suggest either "Maps and Scenarios" or "Other Customizations and HS Additions". |

Re: An Impactful Customs Creator
Next to last entry. This is a short entry and is not very profound, but hopefully it will encourage you to do something.
Expand Your Horizons I love creating customs. It is such a fun and creative outlet. I know it is the same for all customs creators. Because of our love of creating we may sometimes forget that there is more to HS than customs creation. We have a whole community here; a community we can contribute to in more ways than one. I am sure that each of us have talents or skills that display themselves outside of designing units. I encourage you to explore those skills and see how you can utilize them to contribute to the HS community at large and not just the customs community. It can be something such as creating a useful utility thread (i.e. @1Mmirg 's Index of Excellent Scaper Threads), creating a great resource (i.e. @IshMEL and @lefton4ya 's Hextreme Heroscape Sreadsheet ), or even something totally off the wall that barely has anything to do with ‘scape but can be fun and/or useful (i.e. Heroscape Themed Fonts). Ask yourself what you wish the site had and endeavor, if at all possible, to be the one to do it (that is what lead me to start the Copy and Paste Abilities Index). The idea is, don’t limit yourself to just designing customs when you can probably contribute in so many other ways. I understand that creating and critiquing customs can be time consuming and not leave much time for other heroscapers.com endeavors. If you have an idea for something you think the community would find useful, fun, or entertaining it is totally ok to put designing aside for a period in order to work on some other 'scape related project. Your customs will be waiting for you when you get back. You might even dust off those languishing units with some fresh insight when you return to them. Remember, this is about being an impactful customs creator, not simply a customs creator. When I think back on those who I would consider impactful customs creators I can see their fingerprints all over the site, not just in our little neck of the woods. You are creative- that is why you design customs. Expand that creativity and get out there and show people that this community still has much more to offer to all scapers! |
