ap0calypse: Approved

of course i gave permission, heres more proof ^_^
good luck with teh map!

I forgot to add a section with Knows Bugs :§
I make one when i upload a newer version, anyway here it is:
Known Bugs:
-"Nevermind" on Cropbuypage1 doesnt work
-In the Tutorial, the Camera changed to the mill after one dialog(fixed in the next Version*alrdy fixed*)

It's Better than Farmville ^_^
Looks good, i'll give it a try....

If you want to protect the map you can use wc3 map optimizor, it also makes the map smaller. If possible post ingame screenshots and a better preview image will be nice, its really plain and boring.

I laughed at how he slept. He wandered into the bed and fainted while blood was coming out of his neck. And then woke up moments later uninjured. Oh and that is one huge ass bed.

EDIT PAGE NO.1
edit: Its also hard to click on the red berries. (oh yum! berries!)
edit: can there be mushrooms?
edit: I liked how there was a dead guy on the chapel thing.
edit: I didn't like how there were heads in the green soup things.
edit: How do i get in that gold mine thing? Edit: oh i get it now.
edit: The berries have huge shadows... feels like doom is coming from them. Edit: lots of other items do too, scale them to size.
edit: Can berries be stackable? If not, those must be some huge ass berries. Edit: Oh i get it now.
edit: Make the gate open better, its strange for a gate to turn into a wisp.
edit: Can i revive my dog? He died trying to kill some bandits.
edit: Need a better icon for stones man.

EDIT PAGE NO.2
edit: Screenshots make everything better, but more specifically, more downloads.
edit: I didn't actually have to eat much when i was at level 4ish and over. I just regenerated everything.

SUGGESTION PAGE
Suggestion: Mushrooms make stuff better... Always... More types of mushrooms add variety... Variety is good too...
Suggestion: Different contests the mayor gives you... It gets kinda wierd when you go to the town every few minutes and you get awarded a sock for your efforts for finding a contest mining pickaxe.
Suggestion: When you get a quest, ping the location of where it is, i didn't know scat about where the wolf den was.
Suggestion: Different enemies are good, the only enemies i catually saw were wolves and bandits (i was hoping the bandits would have at least 1 gold).
Suggestion: Yah brah, yah need ah screen shot. Edit: Yhay!
Suggestion: Bee hive is need hiving your bee. [need a bee hive]

Trying now! Looks good.

You could change the UI texts such as "Cannot target derbis" "Must target building" to something helpful.

And is there anything you could do about the constant lag spikes? Avoid calculating something needlessly instead calculating only when there's a change and otherwise just apply the effects ect.

Oh the starting cinematic could have longer delays, I bet few could read the texts completely in the time that was given.

All an all, could use some fine tuning to give it a more polished feel.

I'm not too much into these simulators but if one has time I'm they can be a lot out of this.

Well, most of the things are graphicchanges and i think that are less important for the first few updates.
And thanks for your ldoom berrie edit, that made my day xD
You can stack berries, buy a Berry sack at the Shop(i must say, myself NEVER doed something with berries .__.)
About the Gate, i take a look, it shouldnt be like that.
YOU MONSTER! The poor Dog...no you cant

lag spikes? Please be a bit more accurate(but i know what lagspikes are xD)? Myself got rarely lags when i playd that map in Multiplayer, and never spikes(but just with Flaffi the most time, 2 test some things...)
And lags are on the other Hand problems of a bad connection, but as you maybe read, the first thing what i doed was fixxin leaks (yesterday i stopped at the creep respawn system folder and reworked it) and after that i wanted 2 smooth triggers^^

bout the starting cinematic, flaffi said that too but i wanted 2 see the opinions of other people, but i think i should make it longer, yeah.
But how im supposed 2 make it "longer"?

• Cinematic - Send transmission to (All players) from Peasant 0075 <gen> named TwentyThree: Play No sound and display Hello, and welcome .... Modify duration: Add 20.00 seconds and Wait

Basicly, i must edit the "Add X.XX Seconds" and wait, right? So 20 Seconds and wait=The message appears 20 seconds long?
Because i changed it some times(one time even 2 800 or something like that) but i wasnt able 2 see a change in the duration

Nice work 5/5

Dont know why it didnt updated the new screen on Hive...

This sounds interesting, I'll have to check it out sometime.

Looks like it could be neat, honestly im not much of a farm-ville fan thats all over facebook but it seems to be a huge hit. Would be funny if you renamed this WC Farm Ville It would get peoples attention and Who knows maybe 1% of the planets population will also play this someday lol

Are you a Farmer? Have you visited a farm?

I dont like "Farm ville" either, and im surely not going to rename that Map to something that alrdy exist, even if i get more attention(at the first look that Maps maybe looking like a 4/5, but myself is rating it at something between 2/5 or 3/5 atm) because of that "fake"-factor

No, sorry, i was never be able to be on a Farm in the mediaevaltimes. Im 18 Years old and the mediaevaltimes were a very long time ago :<...and a "real" Fantasy"age" never existed(or at least nobody is thinking it).

I wasn't meaning fantasy?.what do you take me for? I live, and work on my familys vegtable farm, and most everyone in my community homesteads, meaning that they grow and consume practically everything themselves. very similar to medival ages, wis some improvements.

this map is not very acurrate in terms of how things are acually done, and how they work, if you would like, i could give you some advice for overhaul.

Surely that map isnt much like a "real" Farm, but kinda like(more then a normal meele map xD) but they need much to be improved, i know(and thats just the second patch since i work on this map, and i gave the Versions the name "a" and "b" not just because i like a a,b,c sysem or something like that, because the 2 patches were more like bigger "bugfixes" then real "patches" ,because i think in a patch there must be new content.)
If you have Suggestions and critism feel free to say it^^.
But i hope your not like that other guy with a comment like this because thats a map to have fun and not something where you must realy hard work some weeks/years on it xD(Like most of the Nippon Ichi games, more work then fun xD)

I'm not saying its not fun at all, or that you are stupid, its a good map, but it seriously misses out on some aspects of farming itself, and misses the feel. but it is a good map, but it could be MUCH better.

So, habe you some suggestions then^^?

I simply don't know why people remember Farmville but not Harvest Moon >=[

Yes. Improve the farming realisim.

This game is fun but I found a really easy way to make money that is probably not supposed to be used this way. A normal watering can sell for 5 gold with 1 charge but if you fill it up in the well it becomes 10 charges and thats worth 50 gold. So people would just have to buy watering cans bring it back to the well. Fill it up and sell it for 50 each. With the mercenaries that can carry six items each, this method can make tons of money in short amount of time. All and all make the watering should be sold for 5 gold no matter the charges. But without this cheat this game is still fun.

Yes. Improve the farming realisim.

Like i said, i never was on a real Farm, so maybe the things that i thougt bout a "real" Farm are different from yours, i only played "Harvest Moon" but thats a Game too xD.
So, next time please accurate suggestions

@darklegacy11: goin 2 fix that in the next upload, thanks.

In harvest moon there was a bee hive... GO BEE HIVE! (LOLOLOLOL "HIVE")

*23rd post!*

Wait, you are making a map about a farm, when you know nothing about them? nvm...

I know a lil bit bout Farms from games(like Harvest Moon) and from History Lessons.
I have some changes in my mind atm, but im 2 lazy 2 write it all down now, but if you want, i can send you a PM with my thoughts.

I always wanted a farm, and now I have one in my computer I played with that for hours.
But an error found with the Oat when i try to feed my first chickens, I can't use Oat on them, or any other things, It's just droppable. My poor chickens are starving

Well ask me a question about anyting, and any aspect of the game, and i will tell you exactly how it is/was/would be done.

Monsiuer Flat,
I, the orgional creator of the game, have made almost everything in the map, with exceptions now because of the my associate Sky. I live on a farm, I grow vegetables, fruit, and raise animals as well, and i made it like so because of the realism is far too detailed for it to be 100% accurate as in real life. I enjoy that your attempting to help Sky, and i hope Sky learns something useful... in case he gets stranded on an island for years and needs to grow vegetables

orly? intresting. what do you grow on your farm, what animals do you raise? what do you feed them? respond in a pm.

Smoothed all triggers now(just the "only-trigger" related things, not all of course and fixed some bugs.
Now i write a list with my thoughts how i want 2 change some things in the map(in my homelanguage, german, of course, just a note for me xD") and in the same time smooth all a lil bit more, but i want 2 share a part with you and want your thoughts bout that =D

For Crops/Vegetable related things
New Models
Different Qualitis(depentend on which seed used, care of the crop while it grows(like fertiliziser(or how its called in english <-<), some Random/luckyness, etc.)
You cant just plant a new crop out of a vegetable, you must buy seeds(You cant plant a "Lettuce", but can plant "Lettuce Seed" or something like that) or make Seeds out of the vegetable yourself(with a profession of course)
brauch mehr zeit zum wachsen
Different seasons with different weather(chances) and you can plant seeds only in specific seasons
Weather has bigger effects on Crops
Trees with Apples etc.
Rework of the actual Crop...system...(i mean the whole watering, harvestinglikestuff)

Hope its understandable xD
ah, and i got a Skilltreeidea, if you lvl up you can choose between some things like Crops growing 10% faster or you needin lesser to eat(just examples, but stuff like that)

thats some of my thought, and not thoughts like "its all in in one new patch" i change little by little :>(the list is bigger of course thats just an example)

Help! I cant feed my chicken with the oats!

HELP! I cant feed my chicken with the oats!

Yeah, I'll give you some feedback!
-Models
Pretty good idea, the ones that were used are sort of OK, but custom models are always welcomed!
-Qualities
Very nice idea, I think FERTILIZER (for your benefit <3) is a really good idea, as well as the seed quality, though it might be difficult to implement.
-The season idea is very nice. I found a good season system with weather, I'll PM you with the info
-Crop System
Good luck!
-Skill trees
Very nice idea !

~Goodluck~!

you know, chicken shit makes wonderful fertilizer. (google cheep cheep)

Really a good map~ Skyswimsky~ I love farming game~ hope can at least buy a truck to collect my produce, always get full..^^
And keep going ~ Support Farmer Life~

Hello Skyswimsky ~ Did you still working on this map? or you already abandon it? (+_-)"\
I work on this map , add feature and fix many trigger when you didnt update this map...haha...If you really dun work this map already can I continue work with it? ^^" sure I will give credit, I just wanna share this map out with fixed and new feature version~

Farm Life are great in this modern age.

Hi there!

I don't know one thing, maybe i'm newbie but think you can't use oat to feed chickens and pigs. Is that bug??

no, you should be able to feed your pigs with the oats, as well as the chickens...
i'm looking at the trigger right now and it should work!

• Feeding Swine
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Oats
    • ((Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Boar) or ((Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Gilt/Sarrow)
  • Actions
    • Unit - Set life of (Target unit of ability being cast) to ((Life of (Target unit of ability being cast)) + 50.00)
    • Item - Remove (Item carried by (Casting unit) of type Oats)

see?

Actually from Nychlo yes! You cant use the oats in that version because got something wrong in the object in it. I fix that bug already but maybe I cant post the map anywhere without permission right? ^^"

The Maps not dead, but cant rly work on it because i need to get answered this http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...e-items-triggerrequest-rep-175909/index2.html because mostly of the new system is based on items with hashtablethingythings
