It's hard to figure out which category to enter in  - what if your project fits under multiple categories? 

[Brownlantern]

Nice to meet you, and that's a good question. I would go with the one that fits best, but if you are in the MHCP Discord, you can ask there or ping me directly. My Discord username is 'Brownlantern.'

Also, keep in mind the judging criteria, which matters as well:

it'd be great t o enter in multiple categories

Is it possible to customize the user or NPC's avatars? 

It seems several categories of the contest indicate character customization, but it seems that that feature is not yet available on Horizon? 

1. Customization: Purchase or unlock options to customize characters, environments, or equipment.
2. Customization: Extensive options to customize characters, items, or environment

etc

Can Gen AI limits be lifted, since this is the last weekend before the deadline and some of us might be generating a lot more than 100 queries a day?

[InaCentaur]

Hello! This is the last few days before the contest deadline - is it possible for Gen AI limits to be lifted for some users in case we need the last minute extra push? It should be obv to see that we are not abusing the system but simply trying to generate assets, and dealing with limit issues along with deadline anxiety!!!

You can create items that can be attached to the players avatar, or used as grabbables. See this section of the creator manual - https://developers.meta.com/horizon-worlds/learn/documentation/mhcp-program/community-tutorials/crea...

Check out a world like Samurai Tycoon with options for wearable items and weapons.

[InaCentaur]

got it - so this does not refer to customizable clothing, but rather attachables that are grabbable

Decision

In experimenting with Horizon, I've created several different worlds, each one can be fit for a different category of the contest. However, should I strategize on linking these worlds together for one "mega entry" with on world that also links to multiple worlds. Or should I do multiple entries?
