Simutrans Steam Screenshot Contest!

Hello, everyone! I, Roboron, have the great pleasure of opening the first Simutrans Steam Screenshot Contest (or, as I like to call it, "SSSC"). This is also the first contest the Simutrans Community has started in over 4 years, so we are very excited! And we have a good reason. The prize for the winners is... to be displayed on the Steam Store Page!

TL;DR

Participation is opened now. You can submit your screenshots to the "Screenshots" section of the community Hub. You need to include a title and the pakset used. You can submit as many screenshots as you want, until December 21st.

Note: I have updated the game to preventing F12 from displaying the help windows. That treacherous window won't spoil your screenshots anymore!

Participation

1 - There's a category for every pakset (including workshop paksets and the yet unavailable pak128.cs). 2 - You can submit as many screenshots as you want. 3 - You only need to submit your screenshots to the "Screenshots" section of the community Hub. 4 - You need to include title and category (pakset) for every screenshot. Screenshots without title or category will not be eligible . 5 - You have until December 21st to submit your screenshots!

Theme and guidelines

1 - The theme is... Transport structures! (Unoriginal, you say?). Let's show new players what is possible to build with Simutrans. A great train station? Perfect! An amazing road network! Sweet! An underground complex? Wow! A country road with nothing more than grass? Not so impressive... 2 - To keep screenshots clean, try to disable city/station names and avoid showing title bars, overcrowded menus, etc. 3 - While I won't impose any limits to screenshot size, recommended size is 1920x1080 as this is the most common resolution.

Prizes

1 - **For the first winner **of each category: The screenshot will be displayed on the main Simutrans Store Page, alongside the winners of all categories. 2 - For the second winner of each category: The screenshot will be used as the header for the pakset DLC. 3 - For the third winner of each category: The screenshot will be used as the background of the pakset store page. 4 - For winners 1-10 of each category: The screenshot will be displayed on the pakset store page (or workshop) page.

Voting

Voting will be done on a wiki survey (I will post a new announcement when the time comes). Everyone (participants and non-participants) can vote, but you can only vote one time per category. If two or more screenshots have the same votes, our benevolent dictator will benevolently select a winner, taking into account theme and guidelines.

Participation via other platforms

Apart from Steam, you can participate through the following platforms (don't forget to include title and category):

• Reddit: Submitting your screenshots to /r/simutrans/

• Twitter: Using the hastag #SimutransSteamScreenshot

• The good old forum: Posting your screenshots on (https://forum.simutrans.com/index.php/topic,20482.msg192300.html#msg192300)
