Incredibly beautiful RPG video found on youtube

[oxxo]

take a look at this

YouTube - [War3]Tales Cronicles RPG Trailor

very beautiful indeed you will say.

how did they do the shrinking damage texts?
how did they do the incredibly smooth-looking camera customizable?

how come when i google for it i dont find anything?
does anyone know what this project is?

It's like WoW, but not quite as good...

 

[redscores]

I know how they do it...

They use a drastically size reducing logarithm for every floating text, and the cam is really easy to do like that, just give the arrow buttons the function:

Forward key = -5 perspective
Backwards key = +5 perspective

It wont be so smooth without using a special jass thingy (cant remember the name...)

But well... not so hard.

wow that is the perspective every wc3 rpg should try and achieve, the environment was just awesome wow...

I like the shake of the camera when he hits the screen + the camere is really nice, The terrain could be alot better.

 

[Gilles]

It's really old, and the project is long dead I'm sure.

 

[Oziris]

I agree with Gilles.

i noticed the text is in japanese, korean or chinese. i am really really interested in the damage-text-system. does anybody know an asian wc3 modding site where i could ask?

Heh, this thread gave me a good laugh. Thanks =)

First of all, the 2 systems which you all think are very advanced, are in fact VERY simple systems. I'm currently working on an ORPG, which has an 8-player camera systems which is just as smooth as the one in this map. It also allows players to use their mouse to move the camera up and down, so players can actually view their hero from all possible angles. The floating text thing isn't very advanced either. If i have the time i might actually make a map with that system, just to show you.

The terrain looks good IMO. Has this typical MMO feel to it.

 

[~Void~]

Which is crap, as far as terrain goes :\

The only thing I like is the combat system with the sound and shaking and all that. It really adds a nice effect.

best ORPG terrain ever, and even for a normal terrain it looks pretty epic imo. You could easily post a galery of this.

I looks pretty linear for an orpg.

Aren't all orpg's ... uhm... linear like hell?

I mean free roaming, and not a straight path like shown. That looks more like a God of War or Ninja Gaiden.

It's a path leading straight to a city. Or at least I assume it's a city he's heading to. Of course, I'm hoping that the forests and such would be less "straight", but it's pretty normal for a road leading to a city to look like that...

So the maker of the project must be living?
