Dead Space Arena

[Fjury]

...more blood.

Using the Units - special (random unit explosion model) would make the game damn much bloodier and awesome. Unfortunately does these models spawn blood pools, that will cause the map to lag later in game.

 

[chilla_killa]

I will use custom blood models found in the Diablo 3 map.
I tried the function for making it completely dark, but it's too much.
I will use a strong dark fog.
Furthermore, I will add more corpses and destroyed parts, so it really looks like a destroyed space station.
The UI will be changed, too.
Let's see which results the UI contest will make.

 

[xorkatoss]

i like the game it's very cool
btw here is a software for recording vids and it's free

[chilla_killa]

The pastebin entry doesn't contain anything.

 

[Fjury]

It's hypercam and you can download it from here

 

[GhostThruster]

Hey chilla. I can't figure out why the triggers don't work. I dunno why. But anyways, good luck converting it to more 'Dead Space'-like.

 

[Dragonson]

So, any progress?

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

Hey chilla_killa, i posted you a message on your visitor messages. If you want i can be helpful for you maybe

 

[chilla_killa]

Okay, I started to work on it again.
88WaRCraFT3 has added a lot of cool stuff.
In the next update (which will take some more time) there will be an ammunition/reload (by 88WaRCraFT3) system, custom attack (by NFWar).

The atmosphere will be much darker, bloodier, and scarier.

I contacted Grievous1 for his Dead Space stuff.
I'm now working on the Multiboards which were bugging so much time, but I think I found a solution.

I'm thinking about adding a single player survival mode, but at first I need to fix the other stuff.

 

[Grievous1]

Hi sorry but I can't nothing to do for you really should visit my thread for more information http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/1800574-post233.html I have loose all my important files and for sure all my warcraft 3 files without any backups.

 

[GhostThruster]

You've gotta love NFWar and his projectiles. I assume the shooting will be freaking awesome now.

 

[chilla_killa]

I think I fixed the All vs All Multiboard.
A new UI has been implemented.
I hope I get the custom attack properly working.
I also have more good news, I will use new creep models who really look like in Dead Space.

Screenshots soon

Maybe I should reskin the model by myself I will send you a pm soon if I finish the skin in order the slicer model will be more look like a dead space necromorph slasher.

 

[chilla_killa]

That would be awesome of course.

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

Ahhh chilla_killa now i see... I forgot to do that damn problem about unseeing damage, send me map, i'll fix it for 30 sec Way how to do it : At everyhero that has reload and you want to have custom attack he needs the buff you know, just go down at attacks enabled = none set it to none, and there will be no more conflict
Edit : Do you want to me make you Auto-Semi Shooting i mean that Autoshot, and the ability to choose where to shoot (something like Manual)?

 

[chilla_killa]

Yes, please make that.
Sent you PM with map.

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

I didn't get PM...

 

[chilla_killa]

Yeah I was first writing this post, then uploaded the map at pastebin
You're to fast for me

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

Does it works? ahh i am late

 

[chilla_killa]

I test it now.
Yeah works fine.
Is it also possible to completely remove standard attack and only attack with Shot ability?

I want to realise a system which allows it to swap between the attack systems.
So you have:
1. Standard Attack
2. Semi-Automatic Attack
3. Only attacking with custom Attack with Shot ability.

 

[GhostThruster]

UI looks great, fog is excellent. I only suggest to change the icons and maybe the tileset. Also, perhaps add some blood splatters on the ground.

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

Yes, chilla_killa i can do that, but that will ruin the NFWar's attack system, and plus you will need all that units twice. Semi-Automatic attack (I can do) Only attacking with custom attack with shot ability (So Easy ;D I can do it too), Standard Attack, you mean no NFWar's attack system, if is that right, like i said you're gonna need that units, if you want to see Attack UI, and Current damage, if not, no twice units needed. If you're still sure for this, i'll say you one thing, nobody is gonna use semi shot and custom attack, Q: Why? A: Because there is 70% to miss and 30% to damage target. Q: Why not use semi instead of auto? A: Because you're gonna need to click at target everytime after one shot!

 

[chilla_killa]

Okay, you've got a point.
I will just use custom attack.

Thanks GhostThruster, yes I will change the Command Buttons.
Still searching for good ones.

Job for today:
Fix the respawn system.
The one I'm currently using has been bugging a lot.
I will find a new one.

 

[GhostThruster]

Perhaps check out a map called 'Toy Soldiers'. It has a pretty good attack system.

 

[chilla_killa]

The shooting system now works very fine.
Maybe I will modify it so you have your ammunation in your inventory and you see how many shoots you still have.

I also made a texture for the background of dialogs and the options.
Of course I will customize and make the text colours fitting.
Anyone knows where I can edit those texts?

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

what texts?

 

[chilla_killa]

When you are at the Menu window, the texts "Save Game" , "Load Game" etc.
I couldn't find it in the User Interface, but maybe I'm blind.

BTW: I found a solution for fixing the bugged respawn system.

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

I am crazy... but what the heck do you want to chenge there... if you think that german language will be showed at other players, no it wont... but there is, just take a look slowly...

 

[chilla_killa]

Na I just wanna change the colours.
Can you tell me the name of the field?

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

I'll see now, idk now.

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

Sorry for double post, but i need, cause you maybe won't see edited post :
the names are hard, but they are under Texts - General - . ;-) GL

 

[chilla_killa]

Thanks
The colour code obviously made me confused

EDIT:

lulz this field doesn't exist for me.
I have "Left Click to use"
And then under it "Observing"
And then "No upkeep"
The thing you showed me isn't there OO

 

[chilla_killa]

I worked on the shoot system.
I modified the ammo system a little bit, now you have your ammo in your inventory.
There are 4 different ammo types with different missile models.
The reload ability now checks if there is ammo somewhere in the inventory and if yes it moves it to slot 1, so you can shoot again.

Hehe, I just fell in love with these beautiful bullet icons

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

"Hehe, I just fell in love with these beautiful bullet icons "
LOL... anyway gj

 

[chilla_killa]

I just modified the stuff you made me.
Without your help it wouldn't have been possible for me
Thanks again. ^^

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

well, thy... (this started to be boring...)

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

And edit the new gameplay screenshots. Cause there you can see 10 dmg - 10000000000

 

[chilla_killa]

Ah yes, the main post.
Completely forgot about it.
I will completely update it.

 

[chilla_killa]

Okay, I updated the main post, uploaded a protected version of 1.07.1, so you guys can test the shoot/ammo system, you find the 4 types of ammo in the room above hero selection.

@88WaRCraFT3:
Where can I find the trigger where you give the ammo to the hero after you selected it?

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

Torch system, trigger : Begin, there is a loop from each integer Torch_Interget to do 10 times: Add bullets(+15) to hero

 

[chilla_killa]

Yeah that's what I searched for.
Thanks

 

[Dragonson]

Good to see progress is coming slowly but steadily on this one.
Happy season-when-it's-supposed-to-snow from not-so-dead space!

 

[chilla_killa]

Another update.
1.07.2 has been uploaded, see changelog for changes.

Things that are in plan for future updates:

- optimised reload system
- different effects/damage for the 4 ammo types
- a new mode: Creep Kill Arena (The player who first kills a specific number of creeps wins)
(can be also played then as single player)
- better balanced creep system (maybe I request that)
- a working Alien VS Human System (including a working Multiboard)

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

Dead space is dead? anyhelp needed?

 

[chilla_killa]

Seems like nobody is interested in this anymore, so I have no motivation to keep on working on it.
School has also started ...

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

for you it started, and how do you see and nobody is interested... just wait... and you didn't said more updates or anything, anyway...

 

[GhostThruster]

You should keep working on your map, regardless. People may not be interested now, but you never know the future. This map's had huge progress from v1.06.

 

[chilla_killa]

I see no use in working on a warcraft 3 map anyway.
WC3 is dead. No one plays it anymore.
I tried often to test the map on BattleNet and noone ever joined.
The time of Wc3 has ended.
Sad, but true.

The story with the no one joining is old already in the best times of the game people wasn't interested in every new map genre maybe you should just rename the hosted game new (btw. can you host? because not every person can host with closed ports and changed firewall options) or you should looking for a active fun clan if you really want that people play your map all in all I have seen games they are more dead as warcraft 3. If you now really give up the project I will be a little bit angry about it... because from the permission from the witd slasher and my account name is not Grievous0 oO.

Pretty much.SC2 ate WC3, also school killed time, dead time killed hobbies.WORRY NOT, BRO! none will like SC2 in some months, maybe even on June half SC2 players will stop it.Why?Because it will become like Dota, many people hate it cause its popular.SC2 went more popular than WC3 at first.Just some patience.
