Actually I liked the one from Darthviox also, but the aao25 assist should be more in the middle cauz now it looks little empty. Tip for next month :D

Although I like Benda's splash screen, I voted for fireeagle 1.

I agree no 3 is also pretty good, but it's too much changing colors within that small area, I think after a little time it will get annoying, and fireeagle 1 is a bit more calm to see.

FireEagle 1 picture is more professional towards assist colors, it matches well.
Title: Re: Vote for your favorite splash screen!
Post by: Spanky on Sunday, December 08, 2013, 12:03:03 PM
If I were to make some minor suggestions for FireEagle 1, it would be to lessen the red/blue colors a little bit (bringing out the map colors a pinch more) and then to lose the star/shine things.

Guys, if you want this vote to be you should consider that if there wouldn be any pick with majority you should remove some picks with lowest score and restart vote.

I agree and also voted fireagle 1. I think the colors from AA work really well. Congrats for a great job.

I've been thinking about that and probably will in the next few days.

Does anyone have any objections of me resetting the poll to only have FireEagle 1 & 2 options? We all know Bendawich's splash is just silly and that means that only 7 of the 56 votes are for splashes aside from FireEagles. We all know he's going to win, it's just a matter of which one wins.

I Object.

I want benda to be in the vote too :).

Im ok with that, perhaps split and then convert to Index then back to png to see the final result.

Well people can still remove their vote, if they prefer fire eagle 1 or 3 and voted benda, but ok, sounds good!

I have closed the voting. It is apparent that FireEagle's v1 and v3 are the clear winners. I took these two graphics and set them to the appropriate format for America's Army to load and found out that due to the amount of color in v3, it becomes really noisy and bad looking when converted to indexed BMP (what Unreal requires). Here is an example:

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/464376/aac_maap/splash/dec7/fireagle2.bmp)


Because of this issue, that leaves 1 final candidate, FireEagle's v1. I have converted it to the proper format and added necessary spacing. It will be implemented into the next version of Assist:

Great job everybody, we expect to do more contests like this in the future so keep your skills up!

How in the hell could FireEagle* win, if Vanoke has 1613 (62.8%) votes???

Funny attempt of yours :D check Spanky's post and tell me if its reasonably possible that, according to what you imply, 2500 users voted in about 2 days.
Does anyone have any objections of me resetting the poll to only have FireEagle 1 & 2 options? We all know Bendawich's splash is just silly and that means that only 7 of the 56 votes are for splashes aside from FireEagles. We all know he's going to win, it's just a matter of which one wins.

And btw:
Ever since we introduced polls into Assist, we always thought there was something fishy with the results. Looking into the code, I believe I found the problem and tested it to make sure. With this issue now fixed, I have put up a few polls for people to vote in. Check out the Polls tab in Assist to vote on a few ideas we are throwing around.

Please post here if you run into any issues.
