Weekend Mapping Madness #3 - Peaceful

[Vengeancekael]

Looking good guys!

WIP #3 here, might be my last one.
Gonna have to cut down on a few parts and features which I had planned, or I definitely won't have anything to present.
edit: Also I think I'm about to throw up. This is way too much mapping in a row, lol.

It looks ugly with that massive cattail spam near the river. You should work on it more

 

[Vengeancekael]

Yeah but I used them to cover up the ugly cliff separating the river and the ground lol.

 

[Ardenian]

Keep it up! Take a break, get a hot drink and continue! Please don't give up!

Good luck you all!

I just finished working on it... Dunno 'bout the rest of you, but I have nothing more to add to the map.

 

[Ardenian]

You are already finished ? Well, that was fast..

 

[Vengeancekael]

Phrasing!

11/10 has Kael in it.

 

[The_Silent]

If people don't know what kind of maps to make, most city-building games and many other kinds of rts'es (Offworld Trading Company), and a lot of facebook kind of games don't have killing or war in them.

Also, i'm done for tonight. Will continue work on my map tomorrow.

 

[Vengeancekael]

Lmao, all this hardwork and it actually crashes the game. Oh well, guess I better split it up into multiple actions.

 

[rulerofiron99]

Here you go, final entry..

Please give your map a more descriptive name.

Something like: WMM3SharDundredTrueLove.w3x

 

[PublishedShadow]

Hmm ok, I have an Idea and I'm rolling with it. Just started the and I don't know if I'll have time this weekend to finish it, but we'll see.

 

[Arad MNK]

@Vengeance: W00t

@Shar: nice speed, but that Scorched bones....

 

[A Void]

Ok, my WIP.

The camera is first person.

WIP 01

 

[Arad MNK]

@A Void: This reminds me of a campaign screen model used in B2M pack and Also The Last Guardian. I believe the texture are the same right?

Good luck all!
Also, mine has Some Improvements but still, I must Work on my Game Cache, Sleep Camera, Food system, and Shop, +Jungle and Farm and Island systems.

Else, it is Finished.

It is from Born²Modificate's Campaign model. The ground and walls are separate however.

Thank you. Good luck to you too.

No.

It's just simple decency to label your map correctly so that judges will have an easier time doing their work.

Having a folder full of maps called "Contest", "ContestEntry2", "MyContestEntry", "MappingContest23423" is not helpful, and it's what tends to happen when people don't give a s*** about proper naming.

It costs you nothing to make this change. Save as, change name, reupload.

I'm terribly sorry. I must've missed the "Change your map name to whatever rulerofiron99 considers appropriate even though he could change the map name himself if it bothers him."-rule.
I'll edit it RIGHT NOW.

Ok less than 24 Hours to go, here's a WIP... I was up till 2 AM working on this thing.

It's called LEMONCRAFT

Image

Map Description:

"You learned about business in Preschool today! You were so excited about it that you asked your parents if you could start your very own!

Since you were so enthusiastic, your parents decided to buy you some lemons to get your started with your very own business... And when life hands you lemons? You should make Lemonade..."

 

[The_Silent]

Here is my first. The map uses a procedural generation system using seeds, so you always get a new map while still having the option to play on a map you've tried before. I wanted to add a system that added roads, but right now it is bugging, if I have time I'll fix it. Also, no ingame units on the screenshot. The footman is just spawned via triggers at mapcenter to get precice map center, and won't be there in the final game. This was done because I needed to check if cordinates worked correctly ingame.

Players can choose mapsize, difficulty, game length ect. Ingame.

 

[Arad MNK]

Some things have been updated and My Sleep System is Functional, but Buggy.

Now, I will Work on this thing Mad-like, And Finish this Thing probably until Tomorrow Evening.

Don't we still have like, more than 30 hours?

Also God bless that idea and game description.

 

[Arad MNK]

Just Checked out Shar's map to see how fast he could do this thing.

And I'm sure Shar will win this thing.

 

[Vengeancekael]

Last WIP, gonna speed things up.
This is the third part, just started it though. With some luck, I'll get in a fourth part.

 

[Arad MNK]

I Didn't expect THIS from you, Vengeancekael!

You dare to use Blizzard Cliffs?

 

[A Void]

Contest ending tomorrow 23:59 GMT? I'll need to rush things up.

 

[Shar Dundred]

I Didn't expect THIS from you, Vengeancekael!

You dare to use Blizzard Cliffs?

Anything wrong with that? Also, this is no terrain contest.
If it was one, I wouldn't be here.

 

[Vengeancekael]

Screw it, another WIP
Working on the fourth part now, I might even have time to add in the fifth part.

 

[PublishedShadow]

WIP #2. The Struggle is REAL.

 

[The_Silent]

Wip2
All basic systems is now in place, only require the last gameplay mecanics.


Below is a ingame picture of the voting system, which will choose game setup depending on player preferences.

 

[Vengeancekael]

@PublishedShadow, hah, poor fellow doesn't seem to be selling a lot.
@The_Silent, looks nice! Can't believe you set that all up in three days.

 

[A Void]

WIP time!

WIP 02

 

[All_Time_Pro]

Here is a preview:

In this game you shall help the special creatures of the forest who are entrusted to restore Ashenvale once a year. However time is running out and you must quickly make it before it is too late. Race against your friends too in this game as well.
(Hopefully I can complete it in time)

 

[hiphop4eva]

You all are probably bucked if you wont rush.

 

[The_Silent]

You all are probably bucked if you wont rush.

Well, we have 12 hours yet. That should be enough.

 

[Vengeancekael]

We've got a second judge, rulerofiron99.
Woop woop! HOLLA HOLLA

 

[PublishedShadow]

@ Vengeneacekael Yeah the little guy wasn't selling anything cause customers didn't spawn yet

But that's in place now and, well, I may just make it... 85% of the Lemonade Systems done -once I finish those I can add additional content.

 

[Vengeancekael]

Lmao, I'm struggling with the loading screen.
You take a .tga file, generate a .blp of it, then open that .blp in Warcraft3 Model Editor and save it as .mdx.
You import both .blp and .mdx and change the path of the .blp to 'LoadingScreen.blp'.
What am I doing wrong here?
edit: nvm, fixed it. woop woop

 

[Landmine]

WIP #2. I'm not going to win in the terrain department, but holy hell the logistics of my mining system. Oh, and if you made a pickaxe icon on THW then it's in my game.

7 hours to do so much more in game mechanics, ugh.

 

[The_Silent]

My map is finished, so now I'll just add features, balance and bug test until deadline. Best of luck to all of you.

 

[Vengeancekael]

Lmao, I've had to scratch a part 'cuz I've been struggling with this completely game-breaking bug for the past 2 hours. And I've got approximately 5 hours to fix it ;D

 

[The_Silent]

I've sratched 40% of the features I planned because of bugs
That is the problem with deadlines, haha.

 

[A Void]

Will this have extensions? This contest had little time to begin with. Is it better to upload a shi**y (pardon my language) rushed up map or a fully polished?

I had no time today to do anything.

With these kind of contests, unpolished results is to be expected.

 

[Vengeancekael]

The whole point of this contest is the time limit
You can go 2-3 hours over the deadline though, due to different timezones causing some people problems.
So get to work mister, you've still got 5-8 hours left.
Nobody's expecting a polished entry for this contest Just make sure it works.

 

[PublishedShadow]

I actually enjoy the deadline and pressure... I haven't had this much inspiration to push a map complete in about 10+ years. Ha.

WoE is an FP map, which you role-play and Survive as a Villager in a Small Island Town.
What makes this special is that The game is Controlled via Dialogs.

PS: The Name is weird bcz I had a Virus-ish Problem with it.
Yeah, the Map Name sux too.

PS 2: Has no Custom loading screen or Preview. Also, I don't remember whether I optimized This or not So don't risk.

"You Start as a Villager back from your Travel, from the Castle. It has been 12 years since you left Efcathar to Explore a world. Now, Nobody can remember you easily."

At the First, a cinematic Runs which is Skippable. Then, a Dialog shows up, in which is your Main Dialog to do anything.

Some Buttons actually do something, And Some Just show the Terrain; such as "Go to the City Center" or "Visit the Dragon Tamer's Guild".

You may use Arrow Keys to look around and you may become too happy and Start Dancing!!!! (Move to remove this Effect)

Press ESC to Stop whatever you are doing and Show your Dialog Panel Or Exit the shop when in it.

About shop: Press Right/Left Arrow keys To switch between Mini-shops. Some of them Sell things (Hoe, Roasted Meat) and Some Buy Things. (Apple, Corn, Wheat). To Buy and Sell, use Up/Down Arrow Keys.

About Home: In the Home, you may Either Sleep or Eat things. Stats are Explained below.

Stats: There are only two stats in the map: Hunger and Energy. If you lose energy, you will lose speed. If you run out of it, you Fall asleep on the Ground!!! You lose some time too. And Hunger, if you starve, you may Die (Note that this Death contains no reference of Blood, Gore, and Violence).
