Any specific guidelines or advice on websites and blogs? For instance I have been wanting to make 'A Blind Guy Plays' with articles detailing weapon usability, enemy readability, ease of traversal and navigation within levels, etc etc. What sort of process would I need to go through vs someone doing purely captura vs someone doing twitch or youtube?

What sort of work do you want me to put in so I am of value to the program as opposed to a hanger on going 'OOO free stuff gimme!'

We have supported a wide variety of blogs or websites in the past, so the range is pretty wide. Some would do simple guides about new content released, some would offer extensive reviews or interesting takes, and we even had a few online tools that helped Tenno make builds, etc. Much like YouTube or Twitch, we would like to see an established history of content as well as good desi...

To better support the work of our talented community, today marks the beginning of the brand-new Warframe Creator Program! 

From Captura to Podcasts to everything in between, the goal of the Creator Program is to support and elevate the depth and varied work from our Creators, while providing tools and resources along the way. If you’re a Creator looking for a little help with your content creation, this program might be the fit for you!...

Locking this thread as unfortunately the discussion has gotten off-topic. 

Thank you to everyone who voiced their feedback, questions, or concerns in a constructive manner. I know that conduct especially is a concern for some of you who commented here, and as we indicated in our FAQ and post, we have much clearer internal guidelines to ensure these concerns are handled swiftly and fairly.

What matters are the steps we take towards launch, and the ones following it as well. We are considering the discussions had here and elsewhere as we move forward.

With that all said, we can't wait to expand our support to the amazing variety of content creators in our community with the help of our new Creator Program soon!

I'll be interested in DE's stance on this as well. DE and Warframe have always prioritized fan content creators that created art and videos (and sometimes music), and those looped into specific platforms. For those of us who created fan content literature (writing), support, recognition, even finding an audience was always scarce. Whether I ever have the time or the desire to go back to creating fan content, I do hope that writers in the Warframe community can be included in this new big tent (without having to always have a visual component included in their work).

It really depends on the community they have built around their craft. When the program officially launches, it'll give artists (written, traditional art, captura, etc.) a chance to look at the criteria and see if their platforms meet them. If so, they are welcome to apply, and we will judge eligibility on a case...

Also, random question: Will conditions for eligibility be more catered to PC players who apply, or will console players have a fair shot of acceptance, too?

I only ask, because I know us Switch players are often late to the party due to Nintendo’s turtle-slow cert process, haha.

We would LOVE more Console Tenno in these programs, 1000%. The Creator program will welcome Tenno from all platforms!

Okay, cool.  The one constant in Warframe is change; I'm looking forward to seeing the new creator program.  I have a few questions:

Does this mean there will be a gap in plat/glyph code giveaways between the end of the old program and the beginning of the new one?  Will things like Prime Access and Prime Vault giveaways still be a thing in the new program?

 

Will the basic way players acquires glyphs be changing, or will it still be mostly through one-time codes and a couple of universal codes?  Will the universal glyph codes still work in the interim and after the new program starts?

 

I notice we forgot to have a Tenno Tunes contest this year, is this gearing up to be a replacement for that?

You would have received an email about this earlier this week (as a Partner), I will contact you...

Will memers be considered artists or fansites under the new rules? (Would be great!!!)

And will making Warframe related music be counted as art aswell or will musically talented people still have to enter tennotunes?

Question though for Taylor... Will SFM Artists benefit from this program? I'd love to start working with you guys via my SFM art.

We are open to seeing what kind of artists apply to this program. I'm not 100% sure about meme accounts, but musicians and SFM artists would be judged on a case-by-case basis. For musicians specifically, we had music-focused YouTubers in the Partner program so we would love to see what else we can do for that type of content where possible.

Additionally, while Discords were in our original Fansite program, we are not continuing this support within the Creator Program. These are unique community gathering spaces, and we are working with our previous Fansite Discords to see what ways we can continue supporting them.

Added Discord edit to this post and to the news post. Thank you again for the feedback!

Why did you not include publicly the fact that community Discord servers won't be accepted nor supported anymore, even through creator program ? Players should have every informations on this program at their disposal. @[DE]Taylor

That is a very valid point - thank you for bringing it up! With the closure of the Fansite Program, it was an implied statement that we absolutely should have made clearer. I have amended our FAQ to address Discords specific...

I hope smaller partners won't have too much trouble getting back in to the creator program when it launches.  The really big popular ones obviously give you the most reach, but small ones fill important niches to help add variety to the program.

We are specifically lowering requirements because we are aware that those with smaller communities benefit so much from the tools we are setting up!

The topic of stream raids I'll be looking forward. Current system: Streamer doesn't play for 3 months. Applies, and gets accepted. Streams game for 5 hours to enjoy the benefits of a 10000 person raid. Ignores the game again for 3 months. Did whoever that selected them not look at their content and see how inactive they were prior to being raided

General activity in the program was always a qualifier for raids, but more enforcement of inactivity policies will be healthier for the program as a whole!

You mentioned in a comment glyphs, what about people that aren't partners anymore? TrainsyTV for example or the streamers that haven't streamed in over a year like XiaRose? There's a lot of glyphs that aren't obtainable anymore and when I asked you about it a year or so ago on Twitter, ...

Well we will see what hapens with that.

So basicly tomorrow no Partner program anymore.

So the current glyph will they stay in game ?

Existing Glyphs will stay in-game, yes!

If you have interacted with any Warframe content creators online, you might be aware of our Warframe Partner and Fansite programs. These programs have shone a light on a group of amazing independent individuals who have done everything from making guides about new content, brightening days with fun-filled livestreams or creating useful community tools. 

While we cherish the work we have done with our community creators, we feel it is tim...

Two questions.

1. Will these new textures show up on her abilities/deployables when active?
2. Is the Tennogen submission end date still the same despite Tennocon 2020 being pushed back to August 1st?

1. Yep, just like how Grendel's meatball form would change with new textures.

2. Date is not changing. 🙂

Protea’s Files are officially available in the Steam Workshop! 

Much like Revenant and all Warframes following him, she is made using new tech, so there are some missing textures in his ZIP file. It’s on you as the creator to make these maps yourself without any reference files.

Below is a list of what is included in the ZIP: 

• Normal
• Emissive
• Tintmask
• Body, Helmet, and Attachment* meshes

To be clear, you are expected to still make the specular, roughness, and diffuse maps -- we simply can’t send you a reference for comparison.

*ATTACHMENTS
Protea has attachments on her body that are used to manifest her abilities: the belt around her waist becomes a turret when she casts her 2, for example. You can see these in action below:

You w...

The deadline for Round 19 is here: get your submissions in before July 20th at 2pm ET! 

Any newly submitted pieces or existing creations updated after January 20th will be considered. With TennoCon nearing, we thought everyone would appreciate the extra notice -- we can’t wait to see what the community has prepared for this round!

=====================

All creations must be submitted with the following screenshot guidelines, so we can properly judge your creation. We reserve the right to reject items without proper screenshots, due to our inability to properly review your item.

• Please make sure to include a tint breakdown. 
• Have at least one well-lit screenshot on a 50% grey background and uncoloured lighting.
• For Skins and Syandanas, make sure the colouring in your screenshots matches the colouring in the files you uploaded.
• For Warframe Alt-Helmets, please be sur...
