:D all grand and stuff but my question was, how did you start getting into the project? Did he call you, did you contact him. How did it happen?

Oh I guess I didn't understand the question. The main one create a topic in the request zone (or recruit whatever). I offered him my skills to make some abilities to make the project look like non-standard. Simple story, no action or explosion during the recruiting.

:) Just be sure to invest time in what matters. Risk is sometimes a necessity.

To be fair. It is a good experience. I learned more about scripting, hashtables, how to make own buffs/debuffs without using standard abilities, I finally learned how to make your normal attacks to ignore armor value. The success of the project is.mostly depended on how is the.main one good in management and advertising. The current problem is constant changing of unnecessary stuff but it seems this trend is going down.

Well, I hope it works out. Imagine that plus the experience you're talking about.

I hope that's gonna make SM2 a lot more, not necessarily complex, but refined.

By the way, how's the loading time on the new project maps?

I follow the same strategy ads in sm2 -replace standard ones. Plus, no largeleveled abilities. The loading time must be normal. About 10 sec on i5 Intel core

Is it Wc3 file? I'llcheck it later, thank you.

No. It's a game with it's own executable and stuff. Really good if you ask me, considering the fact that it was done by two people.

Going to see. Maybe it given me inspiration.

By the way, will I be able to continue future levels without replaying from start for the Cry of Banshee?
Fruit Forest

Of course. It don't want to be a douche. I'll add the restoration progress system as I did in the SM.

It's getting pretty hard and annoying with those undead squads coming from time to time.
