Castle vs Castle Flame Edition 2.0c

It has always been my dream to create a map, but not only a map, a map that could make a difference, help people. This is that map...Flame_Phoenix

Hi guys, this is my map, from clan SOR. I've been developing this map the last 3-4 years, but only now I started working on it due some issues. This map is a Castle vs Castle map, it is by far the best I've ever seen and played. This is the beta version, it has bugs and needs testing.

You are invited to be an alpha tester if you want. You will gain reputation points if:
- You find and report bugs
- You give me good suggestions on how to improve the map
- You suggest spells, models or icons
- If you are a good tester, your name will appear in the loading screen.

Reason's to why you should play this map:
- Unique Items for you to use
- Unique Waves for you to buy
- 2 New Unique races: Blood Elf and Chaos Orc
- 4 new Tavern heroes
- A detailed multiboard with information about the game
- This map is open source, so you learn everything and gain experience
- Every Hero has a detailed story connected to the game (if not it will soon be added)

My to do list:
- Fix any bugs you may find
- Implement AI for all races

I am also looking for a team to help:
- If you are a good coder, you are welcome to join
- If you have good ideas on how to improve, you are also welcome
- If you are a good model maker, or know special places where I can find good models, welcome in
- If you are a good Icon maker, or know special places where I can find good icons, suit yourself

Current Team:
- Anachron (terrainer with name on screen!)
- Ciebron (coder, with colored name!)
- Themerion (coder, with colored name!)
- Byaku (icon, model, spell searcher, tester and suggestion giver)
- You can also have your colored name on the loading screen, join the team today !

This map had been examined by Alexis Septimus.
If you think this map review is not accurate or require another review, feel free to contact Alexis Septimus. But, map would only be review again for second time and also for the last time unless under certain circumstances. It would be selfish to request constantly a mod/admin to keep review your map as there is many other maps waiting for approval as well.

However, if you still insist of another review after it had been review for second time. Feel free to contact other admin.

Review : I test this map again after a discussion have been conduct among moderator. They told me that this map suppose to be early beta version instead of alpha version. Based on the situation, it seem you have done a mistake by label it as alpha. Please change that.

You certainly did a good work at your triggering, but it is recommend you to fix those leak although it is minor cause if this map been play at Full House. Those leak might slightly effect it. If you fix the minor leak, I could have give your Ingenuity - Superb (6)

I notice that many hotkey ain't working or either clash with one another. You should have fix that.

There is many typo error as well, it seems you did the unit and hotkey at such a rush. I suggest you to check all those hotkey and fix those typo error ASAP.

I try to find quest log, but there is no quest log available. Possibly could be a bug, but I could have mistaken as well.

Apart from that, this map look quite decent to me.

I am not sure if there is a AI available or not in this map, but you could possibly add AI for it.

Please fix those hotkey error, soo far I just tested Chaos Orc and it already consume me over 2 hour to find those error.

As for the other race, there is a possibly this bug does exist as well. Fix those hotkey.

Besides that, some skill malfunction. Fix those skill, people would rather annoy and lost interest to play your map if those hero skill ain't working the way it should.

Overall, this map could be great in the future as long as the map author work hard at it with determination and patience. From what I seen, the author have given effort and determination into making this map. But, it seem he lack of patience for it.

Another 10 point for this map.

12 - Fixed in next version

14 - Fixed in next version
15 - It is usual for me to give more attention to the triggers, because they do the spell, and less to the ability. Hotkey clashes are becoming quite usual. Fixed in next version.
16 - Fixed in next Version
17 - ""
18 - That is weird, It used to function before and I've tested myself. I'll look into it.
19, 20 - Waves are a small problem currently, personally I find them unbalanced. I shall correct those mistakes asap.

You certainly did a good work at your triggering, but it is recommend you to fix those leak although it is minor cause if this map been play at Full House. Those leak might slightly effect it. If you fix the minor leak, I could have give your Ingenuity - Superb (6)
I am remaking GUI triggers, but for now I would like to finish the spells for the Olympics, I believe people will be so damn happy when they see them, I just can't wait. Also, I am working with a friend, Ciebron he is helping me finalizing my systems, and when I'm done, I think I may get more than that score, but it is yet to early to talk about that.


There is many typo error as well, it seems you did the unit and hotkey at such a rush. I suggest you to check all those hotkey and fix those typo error ASAP.
Next version will be released today or tomorrow, will have those typos fixed.


I try to find quest log, but there is no quest log available. Possibly could be a bug, but I could have mistaken as well.
There is no quests, unless you are a night elf player, and that way, you will active that strategy system, which will teach you two b.net pro tactics:
- Hunts and Dryads
- Find the other yourself, I created it personally, I think you may like it xD, It turned me into a great b.net player long time ago.

Apart from that, this map look quite decent to me.

I am not sure if there is a AI available or not in this map, but you could possibly add AI for it.
When I am done, decent will be nothing.
AI mmmm Where should I use it ?

As for the other race, there is a possibly this bug does exist as well. Fix those hotkey.
Hotkeys and triggers are my eternal enemy, you will find hotkeys errors for sure in the other race.

Besides that, some skill malfunction. Fix those skill, people would rather annoy and lost interest to play your map if those hero skill ain't working the way it should.
I will announce the heroes being remade. You should've checked the Chaos Warchief. He is almost done, it is sure to be a hell of a hero, but I still need an illusion ability for him.


Overall, this map could be great in the future as long as the map author work hard at it with determination and patience. From what I seen, the author have given effort and determination into making this map. But, it seem he lack of patience for it.
Yes, in fact I am running out of time, so patience is something I can barely have.

Thx for your comments and reports. Bugs will be fixed soon, I am working on them right now. Thx, as I promised, being a mod or not, You earned more reputation points.
Let this be an example to all others.

I am also glade to announce, next version will have an image =)
Is it alright if i just use this and change the weapon?
I am sorry, I will need more than that =S

EDIT EDIT EDIT
Phew, Ok guys, here is the new version of the map with ALL reported issues fixed.
Map is now smaller as well, but it still allows people to open it and to see it.

However there is still a long road ahead, I need Icons my Goblin Shop Items !!!
If some one knows where I can find Icons or models, please say I'd be grateful.

Enjoy the new map description and specially enjoy testing the map. I really hope you all like it.
Please comment bugs and test the map !
Also, give good feedback !

Flame I have to say that this is looking brilliant! I have just read through the whole topic and think its great to see the map getting this feedback, it long deserves it. I saw your post on our forum and came straight away to see, its fantastic. The map I will have to test tomorrow as I am out tonight, but I really look forward to seeing (finally) how far its come since our very early stages!

Keep up the good work I'll get back to you tomorrow!
 
Na no thanks I have my own projects to work on.
Ok then, thx for replying anyway. Plese keep testing and playing my map xD

Ok, guys, I've been working with my coders team which so far is:
- Ciebron
- Themerion

This guys are helping me making 2 major systems and if this continues well,next version will be released soon with a new system.
These two guys will also have their names on the loading screen, as well as credits.
Hope you all like it !
 
I haven't played it, but it looks pretty good from the screenschots. Nice work btw.
Thx really. Please test the map and if you want you are welcome to join the testers team =)

Please note some heroes are still under construction, I just allow them in game so people can have a preview of what they will be.
Next version will include hopefully one more system as well as some new hero spells.
I hope you enjoy and have fun, please remember to post bugs and suggestions.

Remember, there is an open source version at post 1 of this thread, you are all welcome to use it as long as you read the README file.

Bug with footies ( seen starting game )

They attack fast but did not damage the enemy footman ( 1st bug )
A lot of uncompleted words.
Diablo carts can't attack building .. they are siege units btw and what happens after gold mine is used up?

loool ... i forgot to fix that and I know why it happens.
Every 0.5 seconds I select unit is a corner region and order them to "move-attack". If they see an enemy they start the attacking animation, however this one lasts more than 0.5 seconds. So they play half the attack animation and then the get same order again.

New version will be released soon Beta 1.1a , thx for posting.

What did you think of the map ?

EDIT EDIT EDIT

New version of map released, Beta 1.1a, please enjoy.

Lol yep I've tested it. Nice and all, but the moving shop thing is kinda annoying. Lol alot of effort must've been put into this one project.
Lol, The shops move so the game isn't boring. They rock. Imagine you are in a middle of a battle, you are losing and then suddenly a shop passes by you, you buy an item, and the fate of the battle is turned on your side.
Wondering shops are one of the best things this map has, I wish I was in one of those complicated battles =)
However, there are also shops who don't move, like taverns and summons, you can also buy stuff from those.

Thx for comment, and yes, it took a lot of effort to do it all =)

This map is amazing Flame_Phenix!
I have an suggestion for an hero: The Dwarven Rifleman, that has the "Throw Gnomish Grenade", "Sniper Shot", "Mega Bullet", and the ultimate "Legacy of Rifleman" spell that the sharpshooter shots dozens of explosive bullets at an target point, dealing massive damage.

Thx, I am very glad you like my map =)
About the suggestion for the hero, currently I am not adding any more heroes, the Tavern is already full, and I still have some heroes to remake, 2 systems to creates and I have to fully remake 1 system, and a lot, but a lot more stuff.
I can't afford creating another hero for now, but I appreciate the fact you liked my map, and I will remember you suggestion. Although it is a good suggestion because it will fit the map and the context, I am sorry I can't add such hero, at least not for now.

Thx for comment =)

Several typos for the blood elf race all the heroes descriptions, for the alliance sanctum ("Wizard" is spelled "Wizzard"),the beginning blurb thing, "Melee" is often spelled "melle", for the hawk claws ability "the hawks learn hot to",the archer riders ability "Gives you Elven Srcher Riders the ability to attack..." training the elven rider to use sprint says "50% faster" but on the rider it says "150% faster" excellent is spelled incorrectly for the towers
 
Very good map so far only have done the night elf race so far though
Thx. STill when you play CO now that some heroes don't work (see introducing post) and that their casters are also being made still.

Spell typos is a problem for now, I am trying to eliminate it by using help from my Beta testers.
Still, thx for the comment =)
 
Also the magic sentry ability does nothing and It doesn't seem to end when I kill the king
The magic sentry ability s to allow towers to see invisible units. I find it strange it doesn't work ...

About the king, I am currently thinking of replacing that King, so the victory triggers are disabled for now.
Thx for reporting bug.

It may do stuff but it doesn't say that it has the ability
What are you talking about ?

As for the penguin insult icon i was thinking a penguin flipper I would make it but I'm not really good at those things
Yes, I need icons, but I can't make them either ... that's why I need a team of icon makers /searchers to help me with. If you people could find some, I would appreciate.

Hey Flame_Phoenix, I noticed an error, the bridges of the bases entrances are much higher and the unit that pass float and climb up the bridge. If you can, please solve this bug adding an terrain ramp or something.
Yes, this is something I also need to fix, but I am not an expert at terraining , so I will need some one else to help me with it =S

- Thx for being interested. It all depends in your skills as a coder. Currently I was trying to use "Domino Theory by Rising_Dusk", an illusion spell that creates X illusions and that scrambles the illusions evey time the caster is attacked. However I can't import that spell because it is old and uses Kattana's system, which unfortunatly conflucts with some of my other spells.
I think I should try converting it to vJASS, but I don't have time.
Please show me some of your maps, so I can see your skills.

It seems to be written in HTML, can you fix it plz ?

Byaku:
one of the models is small and is good the shield model however i bugged and so I can't use it (the origin point is not on the correct position).
Please always test models with auras and such to see if they work Ok.
ANout the hero, I can't add much more heroes, as I said before, I don't have enough space.
However Abilities for items will be appreciated, although I already know what I want to do xD

Thx for the support guys =)
