Information
The Watcher V : Discovery : The morning was awakened and it was deep into the afternoon, After the explosion Tainthar and Freya moved further into the forest in search of Anubis, but in their long travels they discover something which could be horrifying....

My reason for Deleting the old map: I deleted the other map of the Watcher Episode V because i don't know how but i uploaded the wrong version which was not up-to date and becuase of that i got bad review's, Now i don't know how many things are differnt but i do know that the version i have uploaded now is better.
And by the way : To Septimus, i am really sorry as you wasted some of your time, reviewing the wrong map, I am really sorry for this.

Linaze: Fairly good cinematic. In need of some improvements, though:
-There were several grammatical and spelling errors.
-Some scenes lacked nearly any camera movement at all, which felt very stiff.
-There needs to be more stuff going on and not just dialog to make this more entertaining, I'm referring to more action, movement etc.

On the whole, though, it is a decent cinematic with good looking terrain, some cool action and also, the episodes keep getting better and better.

Okay, you updated the map and now I can give a
review for it.

(+) The Story is very interesting and entertaining.. Keep up the good work and I can't wait for the next chapter.

(+) Special Effects/Animations - Very good use of special effects and animations.
(+) Camera/Scripting- Camera movement was decent but could be improved.
(+) Terrain- Could have been better and lacked on some areas.
-------
(-)There are many grammatical errors in this cinematic
For example: Wrighting, Cant, wierd, happend, belive
(-) Music- You could have used better music instead of Tragic Confrontation.
Other/Miscellaneous: I did not know Freya was a girl until now.. For the king, you could have used Tranquil's model. http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/models-530/king-53861/?prev=search=King&d=list&r=20
(-) Dialogue- Less talk more action! There is more dialogue than action in this cinematic. Some lines are irrelevant to the actual cinematic.
For example: "This place is so..."
In Picture #1
Why is Tainthar hiding behind the ancient writing?
In Picture #2
Misspelled word

Nice cinematic!
I only don't like it that they blink so much.
You could also use doodads for the walls, sometimes it looks weird.

And as replacement for the stairs, this would be usefull I think, Sunken Ruins is kinda weird in a castle.

I give it a 4/5!

Can't find it in warcraft3 custom game? anyone know why??

Maybe you didn't put it in an appropriate folder

REVIEW OF .LsD

Environment was good, especially in the place of Hell and the Eagle Castle [+]
Sweet storyline, I love it [+]
The Animation were good [+]
Models were good as usual [+]
Special Effects were also good but you could have used more [X]
Sounds are not that effective [-]
During the time between Tainthar arriving at his camp and till they reach the south portal, I still heard the work of the peon. Might need a fix [-]
Why did you have to have only 4 demons. You can add more difficult situation for Tainthar or more that 1 situation. [-]

From the above points my rating out of /5 with be

3.7/5
Good. Could use some improvement

Legend(If necessary)
[X] - Okay
[+] - Good
[-] - Needs Improvement

I dont' really know what to rate, 4/5 or 5/5

Pro's
• Awesome terrain, It was highly detailed and.. Stuffs.
• Story was understandable, But a little confusing for me.
• The sounds were fair, But , When he went through that portal to that god of wars realm, The sounds there were also used in CMarket's series, And, As was the ambush, It all seemed so familiar.
• The action's and battles were nice, But were shorter than the last episode's fight.

Cons
• Story was going too fast and it kinda got me in a confused spot.

Neutral
• Seems very similar to CMarket's Sothm series. Though i liked Sothm better, This still is quite nice, And almost tops CMarket's series.

But still, It's a fairly good cinematic and i'm actually surprised someone made a cinematic which almost tops Sothm, So , It would've 4/5, But i thought it over and just gave it 5/5

Wow.. you saying it nearly tops sothm really does mean something so thanks =) +rep, and CMarkets Sothm inspired me to make this, i did kinda make a tribute to his series. :) just so you know why they are alike. Also i am sorry if it is a bit to fast.
