    Interesting to see you’re from New Jersey. I’m currently in New Jersey too! Anyway, Merry Christmas!
    Mattnj
    I wanted to wish you all on the Hive Workshop a Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and Happy Holidays! I hope you all enjoy time with friends and family, eat good food, and open good presents!

    I have been busy deciding between building a custom game engine, or game engines, for some computer games I want to make, in a language like Java, C#, C, or C++, using OpenGL or Vulkan along with one of those languages, or make some computer games using a premade game engine like Unity, Unreal, Godot, or GameMaker.

    Using a game engine like Unity saves you time because you have a prebuilt interface and engine to work with but if you start from scratch you can make the game exactly what you want to and you understand every line of code because you wrote it. You also have to pay to make monetize your game if you make it with Unity whereas if you code a game engine or game in C#, C, or C++ it is yours, provided the API you use is free. Unity is cool but there is a lot to learn.

    Yeah, the XNA project, we (me and 1 friend) made everything from scratch. We made simple GUI-components, buttons, modals, scrolling, 2D animation handling, 2D raytracing... Everything (almost) from scratch.
    I kinda don't want to do it all again, so I'll definitely use tools for my future projects :p
    I'm just not friends with Unity yet and I think Unreal is even "worse".

    Unity and Unreal are not perfect but when it comes to making games using a game engine will save you a ton of time and headache over building everything from scratch. Unity and Unreal have poured tons of money, time, and people into developing their respective game engines so it is unrealistic one person can make a similar scope engine in any reasonable amount of time and effort. Good luck with finding the right tools in the future.

    If I have the time I will continue updating Warcraft Europe and my other Warcraft 3 custom maps.
    Mattnj
    I wanted to apologize that I have not been spending much time on my Warcraft maps, I have been learning computer programming. I am interested in learning more about Java, C, C++, OpenGL, and Vulkan.

    Hi guys! How are you all? I am well. I have been thinking about getting around to updating my maps and making new ones some day soon. Be well!
    Mattnj

    Do You Still Have the V72 Map of Europe? I Lost it when I Re-Installed WC3 , And 24 Maps don't work to me

    I will search through my archive for the map and tell you if I find it. Sorry for the late reply.
