Best Newbie Entry (For first time modders who have not released anything)



Best in Show (Just overall the best, based on whatever criteria the individual voters decide.)



Mashups (For work based upon other media)



Most Original (For work not based upon other media)



Most Funny (Mods that make you laugh or giggle too hard.)



How to submit your mod: 1. Create a post on the RWBY Modding forums for your mod/Submit it on Gamebanana.

If you are submitting through GB, please make sure you link to your steam profile on your GB profile, and that it matches the steam account you use to submit your entry. This is just to make sure that there is no mod-stealing between GB and steam.

2. Create a comment on this official competition post using this format:

Mod Name:

Category:

Link to mod:

Based on other Media: (Y/N)

Something you want to say about your mod: (Just a few sentences if you want, no novels people.)



Rules



1. Create a post on the RWBY Modding forums for your mod/Submit it on Gamebanana. 2. Create a comment on this official competition post using this format: Mod Name: Category: Link to mod: Based on other Media: (Y/N) Something you want to say about your mod: (Just a few sentences if you want, no novels people.) The mod must be freshly made for the competition. That means no stealing work, or it having been posted before submitting it. (It’s obviously fine if you’ve uploaded it to GB/A separate post on steam and just linked to your submission on the main contest page.). If another modder has allowed their work as a resource, then that is fair to use as long as a significant change has been made.



The mod must be submitted before June 27th, 11:59 PM EST. This is because voting will take place from the 28th-4th, with winners announced on the 5th, the anniversary of GE's official release!



You may create/use/base from copyrighted materials for your entry, but no else involved in the competition is responsible for any legal troubles that may arise even though it could fall under fair use due to the transformative nature of modding. Basically, you are responsible for your mod should any legal problems arise.



You may enter multiple times; but only once for each category, and without reusing the same mod.



Categories: Your mod must be entered in one of the following categories:



Your mod must be entered in one of the following categories: Soundpack



Character Texture Pack



Environment Texture Pack



Plugin



Maps



Missions





Prizes A prize will be given to the winner of each award, per category. Yes, that means if you enter more than one mod, you can win more stuff! Here are the guidelines for each award and what you will have a choice of. Each bullet point is an option, and if you win you may choose one from the corresponding award! Most of them are similar, with “Best in Show” having the bigger prizes, and “Most Original” a slightly bigger prize. Right now, since no one else has volunteered to help run the competition & I am supplying prizes myself, they are small. If you are interested in helping supply prizes, please contact me. For those of you interested in fanart, you can look at my art here [daisy-todd.tumblr.com] , and here (The commissions page has recent samples) [daisy-todd-draws.tumblr.com] .

Choice of 1 DLC item for RWBY: Grimm Eclipse.

update: (3/25/18 8:00am est) I'm not exactly in a position to throw around money, so the RT Store card was dropped due to the potential of this costing me $60 with 6 best in show awards. The dlc was also reduced slightly.





Finally, good luck and happy modding!

So, I was unsure if I should start this so early, but then I rememered that a large portion of the GE community has jobs/school so, why not start early to let some super crazy awesome mods be made? Anywho, here we go!Hopefully, we can fire up a whole new ball of creativity with RWBY modding, and even get new people interested in modding to give it a shot.
