If I treat it as just another indie horror game, it's preetyy good. Atmosphere, scare jump, pages <3 are just as good as should be. But u made it on warcraft engine what was mindblowing (for me at least). Things that makes game a bit unpleasant, I mean seeing through doors and movement( which was actualy quite good for war3), I belive due to limitation of war3 engine. I strongly recomend you to try unity or half-life engine, because i have feeling that war3 engine stops your potential.
Btw I got stuck at "sleeping beauty", any hint whats need to be done?

Quite interesting map, the unwelcoming and gloomy atmosphere was very well made. However, some places were way too dark and reading notes was painful without adjusting gamma IMO. Regarding the dissapearing doors, maybe preventing the player getting too close? Not your fault though. My only strong suggestion is changing human UI to another one more fitting. To conclude, I'll humbly QFT:

Actually, no. He just need to know how to trigger/code the movement properly then it will be much better with very few works. What I see so far is that he is using "SetUnitPosition" which is causing the movement becomes so weird when we hit something.
And for disappearing objects when too close, it's because he over-scaled the object beyond the model file's extents. So, he should've re-scaled the model file and re-calculate the extents instead of doing it in object editor/terrain editor.
Wc3 engine is not stopping anyone to create incredible things.

I see lot of potentials in this map. It has great atmosphere, great sound effects usage, and especially very thrilling gameplay! Honestly, I stopped playing it when I was in the bathroom because it sounds like there was "something" behind me yet I couldn't manage to get out of there because of the movement and disappearing door, I couldn't stand it. But seriously it gave me some very good thrills.

I've tried unity but I didn't understand it haha but I will try it again because I really want to create a horror game. You have to find sleeping beauty (It's a painting) and just go near it, then go back to the whiteboard .

I've tried to recalculate the extensions and searched a tutorial, when I recalculated the models became so small, but I didn't understand how to do it properly. Hahaha I will try harder. xD

It has a great potential! I love it so much! 5/5 from me! Vote for approval fast!

Wow, I haven't played it, but just by the looks of it, it seems promising. Though, you really need to give resource creators the credit. You can't just credit websites or even search engines like google.

To start, I looked through Resources in Use by Home | HIVE and you can credit Talavaj and and Ket. Those are the only Hive resources you used.
We're less strict on making sure you have nearly all the credits from other sites compared to Hive resources because it can be hard + it's not our site. But you should definitely try list at least some of the authors from other sites.

Awaiting Update

Ok everyone, Iv'e updated it and added a UI and more scary sounds and jumpscares, I also made the game longer and harder to win.

Alright, so I've done a little research on who the authors of the models I've used and sadly I've only found a few, the others I could not find. But I will look harder and update it next. I also promise to create a list of credits before I upload a map.

If you wanna test it again please redownload because I've updated a lot

Clearly reminds one of the older genre-brother:
Will try this out.

edit: okay so i played it until one has to find all 10 notes that are scattered throughout the house. It was a surprisingly deep atmosphere (somewhat hampered by the clipping through objects) and definitely was scarier than anticipated.

Well done from someone who isn't really into this genre (Amnesia and all that).

Buffing it to 4/5 just because it's creative in what WcIII is concerned but the moving system is annoying when you have to hurry.

What do you mean Youtube.com for the sounds? Try to find a proper links. Where did those YT videos get the sounds from?
Same goes for the HD pics.

EDIT: why is the Modern Warfare tag on? I don't think it fits.
Also, keep in mind that this site is frequented by kids. This map might be a bit too much for under 16 years old.

Thoughts

F10 lights up the rooms sadly.
Yeah, wall clipping kind of sucks.
Why can't I save yet? What if I want to leave or something and get back to it later?
Well because of the game's limitation (eg: not being able to look using the mouse) you have to spend a lot of time looking down and pressing interact.
What about looking up too instead of middle forward?
The part where you have to gather the notes is quite annoying because of the need to turn on the light and you might get stuck by objects before getting there.

What I'm not really fond of is linearity. Do this, go back to the board, do that, again to the board.

*The F10 thingy I don't know how to remove, I'm using that jasscode day/night model to set it dark but somehow if you press any option button it lights up.
*I also don't know how to fix that issue with seeing through some models, I lack modeling skillls because I think I need to fix it with Model Editor or something.
*You can actually save before and after the parts where you can die (Gathering of 10 Notes, etc), I did this so no one could cheat by always saving after getting a note. It would tell you if you may save the game (Game Text).
*The thing I wanted was to be able to look up, BUT all the model would disappear when I tried it so I limited the angles.
*You can actually run away from the monster if you choose because I set his movement speed to slow. But he does not give a sign when he comes so you have to look out, I made it like this to make it scary. But it's up to whoever plays it to find out the movement or patterns of the monster.
*Oh no, I also have to put names of all authors of the sounds and HD pics? I guess I have a lot of work to do since I am currently making the sequel.
*Sorry about that Modern Warfare tag, edited it.
*I placed a rated 18 warning on the description

Thank for the feedback

These will help make a better description:

I think we can approve this right away. Aside from the small model problems already adressed, the maps is quite wonderful. I am not too much into scary maps myself, so I played without sound because I am a pussy still, very good assets, extremely well done. I really hope you are able to fix those tiny details like model clipping/model banish, but I am sure you can convince a modeler too help you, it's not something very difficult to do.
Approved with 5/5, congrats!

Have you fixed that weird movement behavior when colliding with blockers? I'd like to re-download and continue playing if so.

Thank you for testing and approving, I will ask one of my friends here in hive if they can help me with the models or I will just do some research about recalculating the extensions.

I'm still working on it haha, I find it difficult to solve. I always use the MOVE UNIT TO POINT action but it seems to go crazy when you hit pathing blockers. I also tried to detect the pathing blocker but it's kinda buggy. I'm using GUI. I also tried to add movement speed so I can just order the unit to move but it shows all those Patrol, Hold Position, Stop commands which I want to hide haha. I will try harder .

Hi everyone I'm currently busy with playing Dota 2 because I'm on my road to 5k mmr, but I will create a 2nd part of this.

Hi everyone thanks for testing out my map, I can no longer update this as I have protected it before I uploaded and the only unprotected version was in my old hard drive which apparently got busted. But I will make a new and better version, maybe a part 2 of this with better codes and no clipping through models since I have learned a lot more about modeling, animating and the warcraft 3 codes.
