  • Hmm... Still thinking for some idea, back from school and going to play W3 :)
    Activating Garena...
    No Rage Quit and Flame Sonofjay puzzles, but F'ing Hard ones are viable, as long as you don't make them like the other two :p
    A good puzzle always has the same way of finishing that puzzle, but dozens of ways to achieve that finish. Just make sure your player does not lose immersion when doing that puzzle. Also, never outsmart the player, make the puzzles as understandable as possible and doable by the player at their current state. Example - Door A cannot be opened and is required for the player to push through with the story. The player can either a) look for the key, b) use "hurl boulder" to break the door down or c) find an alternative route to get past it.

    There are much, much more things I can tell you, like the types of puzzles, but I would just bore you to death :p

    Tip for your antagonist - the best ones are the ones who think what they're doing is good, and not bad. Try to add as much moral choices as you can.
    Thanks man! Thats a major compliment. Your's are the best. I downloaded your map pack a while ago and still pull it out to play with people on Bnet. I might have take you up on that, it looks like the Glaive is not getting a warm welcome. Any thoughts on how I could improve the camera system? The concept is to mix the RTS element of Wc3 with a bit of WoW combat. I've never actually played WoW though. I think its a bit dumb honestly.
    I thought about that but the trigger system is not as substantial as a terrain so I feel like that would be like taking someone's map and putting your icons in it and calling it yours even with credit to the author. Now if someone were to suggest merging the system with one of their own maps, that would be different. Otherwise it would feel like hijacking.
    Thanks man. I don't know where you live but its dinner time here. Please review at your leisure. I also created a "default" version without the custom races on a standard Blizzard map. The Glaive is mostly to demo the trigger systems. I would use a custom terrain but mine aren't well... professional.

    (Post) (+3) As what you commented on a REP you gave me: You are too kind because even if a project is not famour, you still try your best to help!
    Zephyr, there you make a spell relted to summoning a portal or just a portal. For farming, make a map about that interprets farming such as planting or Collecting a specific thing etc.... or maybe puzzles too.
    Well, me I have some... doing my Contests entries and after that back to HT.
    I'm having a hard time believing that's your last map lol, anyway, I'm gonna check it out if I get on my old PC.
