The Holographic Scavenger Hunt will challenge you to locate objects and people across the galaxy, and to gather as much photographic evidence of them (in the form of screenshots) as you can before time runs out. 

The list of targets will be provided at event time. Have your holocameras ready, and may the best photographer win!

Was that scavenger hunt an extension of the screenshots contest I requested for SWTOR? hehehe

So this event idea kind of came together very quickly - I was thinking of your screenshot contest request when Trick and I put this together.  Were you looking for a screenshot challenge like what's happening in STO right now, with having to complete as many challenges as possible, or were you looking for something simpler, like the coolest screenshot wins?

Why not both? Perhaps not at the same time though, but it's up to you good sir :)

Do you guys know if SWTOR has a free floating camera for screenshots like Demorecord?

The Scavenger Hunt may have been inspired a bit by the screenshot contest in STO, but it's going to be better because there are no comets involved.

Star Wars Day

Episode MMXIX

A New Challenge


In celebration of Star Wars Day, a varied group of heroes

was presented with a challenge: Locate 20 objects located

across the galaxy, and photograph them for fun and prizes...


A list of these objects will follow, along with point values.

Most of these items have an "Easy" mode and a "Hard" mode,

indicated by square brackets. Acquiring a photo of the hard

mode will provide more points than easy...


Example:


A Sith lord [with respiratory problems]


Easy mode photos would include any Sith lord, but the points

for Hard mode will only be awarded if the Sith in question

needs to use some sort of breathing apparatus...


You will have one hour to collect as many photos of these

objects as you can. Once that hour is complete, you will have

one additional hour to gather up and submit your screenshots

for scoring...


Targets can be found on any planet accessible to both

Republic and Imperial players, though many might also be 

found elsewhere. Rules do not prohibit teamwork, and if

you find a target you are welcome to tell other players

about it, either in-game or in Discord...


We recommend leaving your UI on for the purposes of these

photos, since some challenges require specific targets which

can be identified by their nameplates...


Screenshots can be taken, with default settings, by pressing

your "Print Screen" key. Your screenshots, on PC, will most 

likely be located on your primary hard drive under:


"Documents/Star Wars - The Old Republic/Screenshots"


Gather up your screenshots by selecting all of them, then 

right-clicking on one of them and use:


"Send to > Compressed (zipped) folder"


You can then send this compressed folder to imtrick@gmail.com. 

If you do not wish to disclose your email address, you can use

http://wetransfer.com to send it. Be sure to include your 

in-game name or Stonewall website ID so we know who the 

screenshots belong to...


These instructions will be posted to the Stonewall website in

the "Star Wars Day Party!" thread shortly. Winners will be

announced after judging is complete...


The list of items to photograph is coming up. Good luck, heroes

of the galaxy!

Hear, hear!  Thanks @Trick for running this for the community!  Although I was awful at it and circled Tatooine for the better part of 45 minutes looking for a wind farm, the scavenger hunt was great!  Thanks for making Star Wars day a success!  Haven’t seen that many guildies in SWTOR in a long time and really enjoyed my first Flashpoint!

I had a lot of fun with you guys, even if some of you apparently think wind farms on Tatooine are a thing, which is kind of embarrassing. Almost as embarrassing as, say, a little font mishap that makes it obvious someone had to look up how to spell "Tatooine."

Thanks to @Voleron not just for a really fun trivia game, but for remembering today was Star Wars Day long before I did and letting me run with it. And more thanks to everyone who showed up -- I had a lot of fun, and not just during the parts where I was torturing everyone with impossible scavenger hunt clues.
