compmaniac Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 What kind of downloads can receive "Editor's Pick"? Do you think that my download (http://mvpmods.com/Downloads/details/id=3736.html) will ever merit an "Editor's Pick"? Also, can some people give me ideas for mods I can make? I'm really bad at programming, and I don't know where to start...and what I would be good at... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkB Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Only uploads which merit exceptional credit are chosen as editor's picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compmaniac Posted January 15, 2007 Author Share Posted January 15, 2007 Only uploads which merit exceptional credit are chosen as editor's picks. So what do u think I have to do to my download to merit editor's pick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkB Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 It's not about what you do to your upload that separates it from the rest, it really has to stand out from the crowd at first glance. If it's an original idea that changes the game for a lot of people and is well-made, it'll likely be chosen. If it's a pretty basic thing that doesn't do much and only helps a small selection of people, or isn't particularly necessary, it'll be hard-pressed to be chosen. If you want an idea of what is chosen as an editor's pick, take a look through the current list and that should give you an idea of the kind of calibre of mod that is chosen as an editor's pick.

No, because it completely screws up the aspect ratio of the image Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yankee4Life Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 What kind of downloads can receive "Editor's Pick"? Do you think that my download (http://mvpmods.com/Downloads/details/id=3736.html) will ever merit an "Editor's Pick"? You are kidding, right? Do yourself a favor and look at the mods that have become an editor's choice pick. You'll see the Total Classics mods, the 1961 and 1967 classic seasons, stadiums created by the team of Paulw and SeanO. Stadiums created by PaulW by himself also. Look at the detail in those ballparks. KC's uniform pack, Fuzzone's Studio, Hory's Total Portraits, Kraw's Mvp 2006 mod. See what I am getting at? These are the major mods here. And I know I am missing many other Editor's Choice mods. Also, can some people give me ideas for mods I can make? I'm really bad at programming, and I don't know where to start...and what I would be good at... Start a new thread with this question. Maybe some people out there will come up with some ideas. The mod you did make was good, and I am sure a lot of people will use it. Thank you for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

compmaniac Posted January 15, 2007 Author Share Posted January 15, 2007 No, because it completely screws up the aspect ratio of the image But if I don't screw it up...it'll leave white space around the image...so kraw, can you give me some ideas on what I should do to it without screwing up aspect ratio, but make it still look nice?

fred13 Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Its not an editor's pick because it does nothing for the game play. It doesn't add realism, it doesn't improve game mechanics, its just something to help people get through 3 useless seconds so they could actually play the game.

compmaniac Posted January 15, 2007 Author Share Posted January 15, 2007 Would a balanced schedule maker be an editor's choice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgbaseball Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Probably not. It needs to be a significant part of the game, like rosters, the whole TC conversion, uniform packs, any program by tywiggins, etc. I was actually surprised my roster got an Editor's Pick since it's only been out for a couple weeks. Thanks to whoever EP'ed it. Anyways, try to find something significant that hasn't been done before, or find your niche making jerseys, rosters, or cyberfaces. That's the easiest way, I would guess.

compmaniac Posted January 15, 2007 Author Share Posted January 15, 2007 Well, the 2006 schedule was an editor's pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hory Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 And your point being? Without a 2006 schedule it would not be possible to re-enact the 2006 season. I think you're going about this the wrong way, the editor's pick was introduced to give users some indication of what is an essential download out of the 3000+ files on this site. That's not to say that those without an 'editor's pick' are unworthy though. However to me, at least, a CTS screen maker is pretty much non-essential.
