Terrain pack submission checklist
Use this checklist before pressing Submit for review in the creator pack editor. It mirrors backend validation and moderation expectations.
1) Listing quality
- Title is clear, unique, and matches the actual art style.
- Description explains intended use (biomes, campaign style, tone) and what is included.
- Price and license tier are set intentionally (not left as placeholder values).
- Release notes summarize what is new in this version.
2) Provenance and rights (required)
- Source license summary filled and accurate.
- Copyright holder is specified.
- Proof URL points to portfolio/source evidence.
- Attribution text added when required by the source license.
3) Terrain tile QA
- Source images are square (128–2048px); the editor outputs 1024×1024 hex-clipped PNGs.
- No visible seams on edges; center crop does not cut important content.
- Visual style is consistent across the whole pack (contrast/saturation/noise).
- Files are crisp in-editor at typical zoom (no blur/compression artifacts).
4) Overlay QA
- Authored in the 256×384 reference frame (see overlay checklist).
- Important motif stays inside the safe zone; transparent background is clean (no matte halo).
- Every overlay is 3D verified in Creator Studio before submit.
- Small overlays still read well at map zoom-out levels.
5) Decal QA
- Correct frame chosen at import: tall for upright objects, square for ground-flush art.
- Tall decals tested on the board (billboard placement); square decals tested on the hex cap.
- Ideal exports: 1024×1536 (tall, 2∶3) or 1024×1024 (square). Smaller files upload with warnings only.
- Decals are not overlays — do not mix up collection kinds in Studio.
6) Technical validation quick checks
- Image formats are PNG/JPEG/WEBP/GIF only.
- No asset exceeds 4096×4096 or max pixel cap.
- Per-file upload ≤ 20MB (creator pack API).
- Queue has no failed items before submitting.
- Pack contains at least one uploaded item after refresh.
7) Final submit gate
- Save listing + provenance fields one final time.
- Open the marketplace pack page and verify copy/pricing.
- Submit for review.
- If rejected, address rejection reason directly in release notes before resubmit.
