Diablo 2 - Act 1

[gavdaman88]

These are some screenies from a side project of mine that aims to emulate Diablo 2 act 1. Thus far the map has been completely terrained and had abilities done so I thought I'd show some shots here. I didn't intend for these to be 'terrain' works but I still thought they'd be interesting considering the huge fanbase of this game, and the lack of good Diablo 2 maps.

Enjoy

Ther are flooting rocks and the fog is great ,no sky, i dont like the untis that u have used, use custome .

Oziris, remember that the make battlenet size is 4 MB so with too much custom content, the map will be unplayable online.

Units used are perfectly OK for diablo II.

Looking very impressive so far, and yea units are fine.
Hows the other stuff coming along, such as Heroes/Abilities?

I don't know if its just me, but none of these areas look familiar. However I can tell that one of the areas is the cattacombs... I think.

Im guessing that the first screenshot is the Smithy and the fourth is the Sisters Burial Grounds. Though you are right there are not any good maps of diablo and that is because Diablos world is to big i think.

 

[Fulla]

Yea alot of it I recognise from the Blood Raven quest/section and the save Caine quest/section, Tristan was it?

Wonder if hes done the alst quest yet, the Andriel quest

Well I don't know my Deiablo well enough, it's been a long time. It looks good for an RPG. Terrain wise, it's good for playable, but as terrain art, not so great.

 

[Chaos Overlord]

Hes named them all so you can just see what they are like that.

For playable they look good, better then any RPG I have played in a long time. It actually looks like it would be pretty fun to play, especially since I never played Diablo before

These screens...are sexy.

Cheers for the criticism, and the custom unit response... not enough room to host it and join fast. The size is only about 2-3 mb at the moment with music also.

As for floating doodads, I noticed them just then and fixed them and well the sky wont be seen in game

The game uses a locked camera behind the hero too which will add to the amount of terrain you can see.

As for hero/ability progress, I've basically completed the sorceress and the assasin but I'm having trouble balancing the frozen orb (as the spells can be spammed diablo 2 style). May possibly remove frozen orb, even if it is such an awesome spell.

For those familiar with the game, I've basically made the assasin a trapsassin, and am now trying to finish off a shapeshifting/elemental druid. The necromancer has been complete and uses a combination of summons and bone spells, the barbarian will have battle orders, whirlwind and possibly a jump spell if it can be used without glitches (unlikely). I still havent quite decided what build to make the amazon, but im leaning towards a bowzon with lightning spells. When I've done more of this map I'll create a map thread about it.

Yep they really are sexy,but none seem to emulate the Diablo 2 Enviroment,I think I will start my own terrain map about Diablo 2

 

[Oziris]

Is this for battle net ups i dident know.I kicked ass in Diablo II and i know everthing so these screens are all from the game i remember all.

~Craka_J

Recognized blood raven and catacombs the others were confusing
It's good tho

 

[Deep Sea Kraken]

Ive never played diablo, but as a terrain, it looks how dalaran should have looked post undead invasion >D

 

[Gilles]

A team should make an almost perfect DiabloII game. It would be sweet.

 

[NearbyHermit]

Neah, I will do it alone
