    From what I understand they want the code files, but I'm wondering if more is required.  Do they also want a compiled version of the game?  If anyone could clear this up I'd appreciate it.

    If anything, if you are sending source they want you to clean out your bin to reduce file size.  They compile your source on their end.

    I would recommend sending a ccgame file, as you are less likely to have project reference or compilation issues.

    But I'm not in any way shape or form the official word.

    okay good to know, I wasn't 100% sure on that although that seemed to be implied.  I just didn't want to be the 1 idiot who gave them the wrong stuff.

    It started uploading, then it when back to service unavailable.

     

    Edit: Success.  I had already cut out an extra piece of music to make it smaller though.  Sadness.  Oh well, it's done for better or worse, I can/will relax........now.

    Well, the site is back up and it seems to be working fine now. I just downloaded my 20mb file without any problems.

    yay, Service Unavailable magic worked, and 36 megs file uploaded on the first attempt.

    Good luck guys, hope it works for everybody now, without "luck" element involved.

    You are lucky... my 100MB upload still does not work (I got to 60MB at most).

    :(

    Re: Help! I can't upload my game in Dream-Build-Play!

    same here...but mine is only 20MB, and in fact I did get 88% on the first attempt, but after that the same as before...

    Re: Help! I can't upload my game in Dream-Build-Play!

    Hmm, are you sure we can only send the ccgame file? I'm not sure if the source code is included in that.

    Re: Help! I can't upload my game in Dream-Build-Play!

    A ccgame package is fine, and in fact probably the most robust way you can send your game.

    The Dishwasher is still on the no success list; I'm at work now so I can't try, but I tried this morning at 6 AM with no success.  It would be a shame if the Dead Samurai didn't make it on the DBP roster...

    Don't give up Jamezila... The DishWasher is definitely one of the finalists!

    I tried with Opera Tor and got it!! it was slower but it finally uploaded...  now I'm out of uploading hell and got into waiting-for-results limbo. Although I'm a little insecure about this hole upload drama, because what if the file was not transferred correctly and it got there corrupted? Does anyone now something about this?

    Don't worry. It's beyond your control now. All we can do at this point is hope for the best.

    Re: Help! I can't upload my game in Dream-Build-Play!

    So is there a place where we can see our competition in this Contest? Anyone know where we can get our game stuff up for others to see... Cause I'm curious how fierce the competition will be.

    Oh, and the upload thingy is now working. Darknd 360 is now entered in the contest. Thanks to God and all those who fixed the bug on it.

    Good luck everyone!

    Based on the teaser competition Microsoft do no publicize the game - that is up to each team to do for themselves if they want. Search these forums for Dream Build Play or DBP - there are lots of people who have announced their entries.

    Re: Help! I can't upload my game in Dream-Build-Play!

    I've finally managed to upload my entry, after again 3 crashes.
    They must have fixed it 3 hours ago, since the behavior has changed:

    now if the upload counter crash and resets to 0, leave it open and don't touch it, the main window in still uploading your archive. Once the upload is complete it will correctly be listed.

    Thanks to whoever at MS who helped to fix the problem.

    Now I'm going to sleep for a month ;)

    Re: Help! I can't upload my game in Dream-Build-Play!

    Ok, this is getting ridiculous... I got DU Manager and tried uploading with DU Manager up; the main page goes to a page not found page but the upload window stays up with all 0's, and the upload continues for about 300+ MB before I stopped it (the file is only 30 MB). 

    Trying again...

    Jamezila and others who are still unsuccessful with their uploads - please email admin@dreambuildplay.com if you haven't yet.  We have folks there who will work with you proactively to get your uploads to go through properly. 

    Given the challenges a number of folks had with uploading their entries, we are going to extend the submission period by a few days.  Everyone who has entered will receive this notice soon but I wanted to let the few remaining folks know this now so that you don't pop a blood vessel this evening stressing about this.

    Hey thanks!

    I got an e-mail from you guys shortly after; evidently I had had multiple successful uploads even though my account still showed The Dishwasher as incomplete.  Technology! :)
