  • Hey, any idea when the results of the melee mapping contest will be out?
    Mr.Henci
    Mr.Henci
    Sadly, it is taking too long, I know, but have a little more patiance please. I believe that everybody is doing what is in his power to finish it. @Naze any idea when it will be ready? It is a month since the contest ended and more and more people are asking about the results.

    Hah I just saw this now, right after posting them. There they are! https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/melee-mapping-contest-2-results.309516/
    The biggest issue with delivering the results is that it depends on many things: all judges should send the reviews + the maths should be done (and also checks for cheating in the poll, like double accounting) + actually making the thread and posting it =P

    I understand that it takes time, thus I was as kind as possible, since I knew you are doing what you can to publish it. Wasn't expecting it today, so big thanks.
    I know but that is different. It's allowed.

    It doesn't matter of some rando comes to the site and doesn't know they can't vote for themselves because by definition of them being 'some rando' they're not the creator of an entry in the contest.

    Anyone who participated in the contest ought to have read the rules at least one time when they joined it or submitted. Having them prominent in the voting thread should be enough. If they don't realize at that point it's on them.

    My comment was mostly sarcastic but if it could actually be done it would save people from being ignorant of that rule.

    Oh come on, not even in Eurovision you can't vote for your country unless you're part of the diaspora.

    Eurowhat? :D never heard of it, but ok ok. I just think that it would simplyfy many things. No need to have a huge disscusion about it. It seems that I'm minority in this case and I guess have different view thanks to my backround? Idk, but so be it.
    Hey, I would like to offer some prize money for the melee map contest, as I really like supporting this effort. I was thinking, 50,25,10 and 5€, so 90 in total. Can we do this somehow? I know, my Account is very new and i never posted anything, but I just returned after my chilhood game got a lot of blizzards love in the last months. I could send it via paypal to you, so you know it is no scam. ;)

    I'm no moderator. @Naze is but this should also be endorsed by the contest starter and the site owner. @Ralle?

    It is not that it totally has to be done, if it makes you feel uncomfortable, then don't ;) or maybe give it to b2w so they can finance the contest #3 so everybody gets something which is good for wc3 in general.

    Mr.Henci, I need your permission to edit, add new things into your map by merging it with UB project. If you approve, please tell me about which one you prefer to be the first one.

    Roger that.
    Mr.Henci
    Mr.Henci
    I would be very pleased, if you can then hit me up with the finished product. Your project is very interesting, so it can be fun playing it on my own maps :D
    Unregret
    Unregret
    Yeah, you got that right. Now that what we call a "finished product".
    Do pros play any maps with Dragon Roosts and Fountains or do they just avoid them?
    deepstrasz
    deepstrasz
    Actually, invisible units like the Blademaster could use the fountain anyway :|
    WolfFarkas
    WolfFarkas
    well NE use the thing to get night and use it at will.
    The rest can buy the invisibility potion.

    But yea the invisibility of the blade master and the blink of the warden makes everything much hard to damn it balance.
    WolfFarkas
    WolfFarkas
    the fountain must be placed in a way that the blade master gets out of a good position like the center
    you have 11 melee maps, maybe you could consider to do a melee pack (5 is the min)?
    Mr.Henci
    Mr.Henci
    Soon(TM) . . . I will do it till 2019, ok? :D
    WolfFarkas
    WolfFarkas
    Of all your 11 maps. Do you have a favorite? I like your map Ogrimmar Tunnels, you discovered/invented a unique mix of tiles and also underground maps are rare.
    Mr.Henci
    Mr.Henci
    To honest, Orgimmar Tunnels is my favorite 1v1, but the top one is probably Ruins of Alterac, since I prefer games with more than 2 players. (I like them all, those which I don't like will get or already got rework.)
    Sorry, accidentally wrote W instead of 2.
    Mr.Henci
    Mr.Henci
    :D No worries, but since you have noticed it, is there any chance that you would be so kind and become our judge? Your reviews and understanding of a melee maps seems to be deep enough. (Of course I'm not forcing you or anything)
    deepstrasz
    deepstrasz
    I have nothing against it but am not really that versed in melee. I've not even really made anything in that field. But, I'll do it if other people like mafe will participate, otherwise they should do the judging.
    Hey, what's up man? Nobody's perfect. Your map is great. I just gave it 4s out of 5 because it's similar to others not because of what I mentioned there.
    Mr.Henci
    Mr.Henci
    No problem, I understand that. It is just funny to me, how I allways check if everthing is set properly before publishing it on Hive just to find out, that I forgot to set mana to 100%, or didn't change the map to the lastest patch. Nothing wrong with the rating really, I am just laughing at myself.
    I hope you do a melee pack some day. 5 maps is the min and you have 8, maybe 2 more and pack?, Your maps are very good. see ya
    Mr.Henci
    Mr.Henci
    Never actually thought of that but since you mentioned it, I might give it a try. Wouldn't you mind sharing, what's the benefit of packs? Or is it only for practical reasons. Thanks in advance.
    WolfFarkas
    WolfFarkas
    Well if let say a member of a melee site wants to download maps, and sees one yours and says, wow he has HQ level, download the pack makes life to the others users easy. Or let say your pc crash you want your stuff back, download your own pack, is very practical when you have many things. I imagine you are going to continue mapping, yes is very practical.
    WolfFarkas
    WolfFarkas
    also it gives you reputation as melee mapper.
    It's me "job" man, no need to +rep.
    Mr.Henci
    Mr.Henci
    Well, of course I understand that, but somehow I feel the need to "reward" you. I mean, you can just write APPROVED and be done with it. Instead you had a look at my map, while stating exact points which you found problematic.

    I will be more conservative with the amount of points next time.
    Hey, how you doing? It's been a while.
    Mr.Henci
    Mr.Henci
    Just swimming throught life. How is your project doing?
    Unregret
    Unregret
    We still keep it at stable stage and currently take a break.
    Hey there \○/
    Mr.Henci
    Mr.Henci
    Oh boi! I have tried, created 3 versions of the Great Hall icon, but all of them looked bad, really bad. I must find som new way of creating icon, probably screens with some effect, I am on it, but i have never created any icon, so I am kinda lost. :-/
    Unregret
    Unregret
    Just relax, Henci. I'm not here to push ya anything. You forget how Wa666r created those icons already?
    Mr.Henci
    Mr.Henci
    I know it takes me long, but actually I have exams a.k.a. I am at university campus, not home, which means I can really create anything now. My last exam is in wednesday, then it will take me 1 day to come home, and just than, I can start doind something.

    I don't want to promise anything, since anything can go wrong, but I will try to create those icons to the end of the next week. (Btw happy to see it actually being used somewhere :) )
    Mr.Henci
    Mr.Henci
    EDIT: I looked at that map and it seems like you find a solution. Glad to see that. I will do the icons anyways but I am quite pleased whit your results. Hope you will continue with the map, it is quite nice!
    Any news, Mr.Henci ? Any changes you can create full set icons of what you already did on those pandaren buildings? including BTN and DISBTN
    Mr.Henci
    Mr.Henci
    Patience buddy, patience.
    Unregret
    Unregret
    Sure :p

    Edit: You should also change all these model path to separate them from existing ones. I can wait forever :3.
    Pandaren, i miss them so much. Any new progress so far Mr. Henci?
    Mr.Henci
    Mr.Henci
    I will be working on them soon, but for now, shool is my priority. I don't know how it works in your universities, but here we have very hard exam period, which starts in midle of december and ends on last day of january. So don't expext anything until february.
    Unregret
    Unregret
    Sorry . I don't mean to push so hard. I have just finished my final defense and forget how you study. February, good to know.
