HOWTO: Submit your content, idea, proposal, or issue

[qreeves]

As Red Eclipse keeps evolving, and our lives change, I'm always trying to come up with better ways for you to submit your creations. As of now, I am moving all development to the tracker, and here's how it will work:

Content/Idea/Proposal Guidelines

• Create a piece of content, come up with an idea, or decide to propose a change you want included in Red Eclipse.
• Then, create a thread for it, either in Maps & Mods for content, or General Discussion for ideas/proposals.
• Give the community a chance to provide feedback, or answer a poll (minimum time should be about 2 weeks).
• When you feel you have come up with a finished work, idea, or proposal, submit it to the tracker, if you are updating a previous submission, reopen the old ticket.
• On the tracker, provide a good description along with a link to your original forum topic.
• Attach, or provide direct links to, any files you are attempting to have included on the tracker.
• Feel free to share a link to your ticket while we review it.

Issue Reporting Guidelines

• Find an issue in the Red Eclipse game and/or engine, verify that you can reproduce the problem and provide steps on how to do so.
• Check report:2 or here on the forums forums to see if your issue has already been reported and/or resolved upstream (in the development version).
• When you have verified that the issue still exists and needs to be fixed, submit it to the tracker, if you are updating a previous submission, reopen the old ticket.
• On the tracker, provide a good description along with a link to your original forum topic (if applicable).
• Attach, or provide direct links to, any files which demonstrates your issue and any patches you might have on the tracker.

General Guidelines

• Only submit finalised works (no work-in-progress items please). If you are just looking for general feedback, you can post a link to your thread here.
• You acknowledge we will probably modify your content before including it (to fix any problems or improve it).
• If you want to modify it at a later point, changes you make will need to be based on our version, otherwise we may not include your updates.
• You must provide an explicit, legally enforceable license. Do not use "public domain", or "no commercial use" / "no modification allowed" clauses.

If you are unsure about how to license your work, Creative Commons provides a handy selection tool for their licenses at http://creativecommons.org/choose/ and Red Eclipse content is generally licensed "CC by-sa" (Attribution-ShareAlike), unless otherwise specified: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/

To create a new ticket, you must be logged in to sourceforge.net.
All authors will be expected to have and maintain an account there to work on Red Eclipse.

Bump. I would really appreciate it if the submissions in the old thread could be moved to the tracker so we can get started on reviewing them properly.

I did it, please forgive me for doubleposting and confusing the ticketnumbers. I haven't figured out how to delete a doubled ticket until now. I hope somebody will fix this, sorry. I'll avoid this surely in the future .
