    Defenders of the Light 0.60

    Current Version: 0.60 In the update version 0.54 of the campaign, the original version compatible with Warcraft 3 versions 1.26 and 1.27 has been restored and updated. This allows players using version 1.27, who were unable to play version 0.49+ of the campaign previously, to enjoy all the...

    Is it me or the logo as the campaign preview image is upside down? I thought the writing was in Cyrillic but the image is actually upside down xD

    It wasn't me. I think there's something wrong with HIVE uploader, some newly updated campaigns will get their logos turned upside down (to celebrate the upcoming Christmas? I don't know). I didn't change anything in the campaign files regarding the logo tho. Also noticed the same thing happening with at least one other campaign W3RR Exodus of the Horde by InsaneMonster.

    Hey.
    I've watched all 8 (?) chapters of Bows and Arrows extensively.
    I would play it but I saw it's not yet finished. Also, it's more a work of art on the cinematic level than gameplay, story and other things as Defenders of the Light is.
    Sorry if I disappointed you.

    Hi deepstrasz, it’s great to hear from you. I think you were referring to the Russian YouTuber Arrow’s Path, who played Bows and Arrows. It didn’t quite click for him and he dropped it before finishing, but the campaign was complete at that time. Since then, it has also received several updates and bug fixes that made the earlier maps more engaging.

    I wasn’t disappointed at all—in fact, I was ecstatic that you gave it a Recommended rating just from watching someone else play. I’m truly grateful for that. Compared to Defenders of the Light, Bows and Arrows isn’t on the same level. If Defenders deserves a ‘High Quality’ rating, then it’s only fair that Bows and Arrows sits at ‘Recommended.’ I’m not asking you to change anything; I think the ratings are exactly where they should be.

    If you have Reforged, I hope one day you’ll be able to experience Bows and Arrows yourself—or perhaps wait for the classic remake to release.

    Hey. Thanks for the details. I thought it wasn't finished. My dire mistake.
    I do have Reforged for quite some time now. I feel it will look best on Reforged since there's more animations and atmosphere graphic stuff to play with.
    But I will wait if you recommend the Classic version over this one.
    ThinhHo

    Oh yes, the campaign was built with Reforged’s animations and visuals in mind, so I definitely recommend playing the Reforged version. I also quietly updated the file to cap the maximum camera zoom to its pre-update level, since Blizzard’s new zoom—while well-intentioned—ended up harming the aesthetics of many beautiful campaigns. Of course, the campaign isn’t perfect. Maps 4, 5, and 6 still have areas that could be improved, but aside from those weaker points, I poured just as much love and care into it as I did with Defenders of the Light.

    Well met Mr.Ho, I am a fan of your campaign dating back years ago. As a fellow Vnese, I surely love and appreciate your wholehearted love and the tremendous effort that you have put into DoTL! Every item, every map, even heroes and abilities has its own unique flavour text. Not to mention the seer hatred you have for agility stat haha!
    Anyway, thank you for creating such a wonderful campaign! I love to enjoy it fully yet I ran into several problems while playing the 1.29 version.

    Mainly as of now, the third lever in the Dark Wood sub-map is still invul after I've killed the Fallen Priest and many many scorpions. Is that a bug or the condition for the lever is something else?

    Side note: If you have any other social media that I can contact you with, I'd love to ask in PM since writing here all the time for the campaign would look like spamming haha. Cheers and Thân ái!

    Thank you for playing and appreciating DOTL, friend. And thank you for voicing your opinion since very few people write about the campaigns they play.

    Killing the Fallen Priest should make the lever vulnerable. However, some trigger improvements have been made in that area for version 1.29 which might have caused the bug you mentioned.

    Hello ThinhHo, a pleasure, I introduce myself, I am Tirion Vadin, I am writing to ask you for the permission for the translation to spanish of the campaigns: Defenders of the light and Bows and Arrows, this in order that those people who only speak Spanish, can play it, entertain themselves and above all enjoy such a wonderful story, clearly, respecting your copyright, my only intention is to translate it and provide those who will transmit in different media such as youtube, twich, among others, a campaign in their native language, I remain attentive to your response, thank you, again a pleasure, happy new year!!!! 🛡️⚔️

    Hello Tirion, I appreciate your interest in translating Defenders of the Light and Bows and Arrows into Spanish. Translating Defenders of the Light is a substantial task due to its extensive custom scripts and dialogues. Not only are abilities' descriptions and dialogues individually edited, but hundreds of item descriptions are also uniquely written. It's a significant undertaking, complicated further by disparities in game versions, making it less compatible across different versions and potentially introducing bugs.

    If you decide to take on this challenge, I commend your efforts and look forward to the end result.

    Bows and Arrows, being a shorter campaign, should pose fewer translation challenges. However, please note that dialogues from Chapter 4 onwards in Bows and Arrows haven't been refined by The-Messenger. While it's acceptable to translate them, they may not reach the same level of word-play originally intended by The_Messenger's talent.

    Hello @TIRIONVADINI, have you started or made any progress on the localization of the campaigns? I completely understand if you decided not to start working on them just yet. However, if you did, I'm curious to know how your progress has been or if there's anything I can help. Thank you.

    Hello. One question about your projects. Are the events of the "Defenders..." and "Bows and Arrows" taking place in one universe? Or it's two completely different universes?

    Hello @fbsonar, although not explicitly stated, the events of both campaigns take place in one universe. Two campaigns take place in different times with different characters which is good enough to call Bows and Arrows a standalone story. Defenders of the Light is a bigger campaign in many ways. Unfortunately, with these recent updates of Reforged, random crashes have prevented players from completing it. You can try it but I can’t guarantee if you can go through the whole project without crashes. The new triggers in Reforged also prevent custom musics in DOTL to loop. They only play once now which is not what I intended.

    What are the passwords for the gates to the lonely island, i thought alot but don't get it

    Hi bro, will there be news about a third act for your campaign or a new project this year?

    I hope that 2022 has started the best possible for you, regards :peasant-thumbs-up-cheers:

    Hello Resyak, the actual gameplay of the third act hasn’t been developed yet. The game’s transitioning to reforged really broke the campaign here. I can’t continue with Act 3 for now.

    However, I’m developing a new project exclusively for Reforged this year. I’m not sure when it can be released though. It’s smaller but the impact will be significant.

    Hello thinhho can i get some tip on the lonely island pls bc this is the second time i've play yours campaign and im still confused about it
    ThinhHo

    You need at least 3 Heroes to complete the Island. Enemies near the doors drop fragments of the passwords that are required for the respective doors. Let me know if you have more questions.

    Hey, do we have to go through Act I all over again to play Act II?

    Hmm, why isn't the data carried?

    I will someday, I plan to. I wouldn't say audience, it's just one person though.
    ThinhHo
    ThinhHo
    I don’t know exactly why but I think it is because many changes and additions were made from the previous version to this new one of the campaign. The game just couldn’t recognize the corresponding units and items with its old versions.

    When you start playing the second Act, I’d like to hear your thoughts on it.
    deepstrasz
    deepstrasz
    Ah, I think it might be because there's incompatibility between the object data (unit, ability data etc.).

    I'll leave comments as usual with bug reports and whatnot.
    Ahman
    Oh, that's sad to hear. Yeah, I'm basically playing on pre-reforged version 1.31.1.1
    I hope I don't encounter something that prevents me from progressing the main quest lol

    It definitely was. There are only two places where you can buy that item to gain access to the Dark Wood. From Reiner and The Barrows. However, due to the bug, you may not be able to gain access to the Dark Wood, which is one of the coolest areas in the campaign. I'm sorry about that. Let me know about the result later.

    I managed to get the Dark Wood Totem from Barrows region. Apparently, it only disappeared when I bought it from Reiner, only when I bought it and Adias was already 6 slotted. So, this time, I moved Chen and Adias away since they are already 6 slotted, and bought it for Darak and I have it now. Horay.

    Nice. Thanks for the update. This helps me pin point better what causes the bug in the new version. Even though I can’t fix it for the new version, knowing the cause helps me tackle future bugs and explain past bugs that occur in the campaign.

    This error happen because of Reforged World Editor. If you start the Reforged editor, you will have to use the file again.

    hello ThiHo, will there be a specific date where you will release the second act.
    ThinhHo
    ThinhHo
    I don't have a specific date. Act II is pretty much done. However, I can't wrap it up because the old editor is broken and the new Reforged editor doesn't support campaign editing. I could have released it but I had to put it on ice for a couple months because of the situation.

    There isn't a specific release date for the second Act yet. I'm still waiting on the editing of the remaining dialogues from my tester. This may take about one month from now before the process is complete. Then the campaign can be published.

    Hello ThinhHo, how are you.
    i really enjoyed playing the first act of DotL, but when i play the second act it doesn't work properly , the intro works perfectly good but when the fire demons it returns me into the main menu of the campaigne, pls help
    i play with the patch 1.26
    ThinhHo
    ThinhHo
    Then the campaign you played is just fine. Act II has not ben released yet due to the Reforged situation. Though the intro of Act II is there serves as a teaser only. You can’t play act 2 yet.

    Hello ThinhHO i really liked your campaign map, enjoyed it, one of the best campaigns i ever played, i am waiting for act 2, when it willl come out?, alos wanted to suggest you maybe you can increase the food limit from 3 to 10 and make the main character has his own village with workers and resourses it would really enrich the gameplay, its just a sugesstion i hope you dont mind, anyway continue with the great work and hope il play act2 soon ...

    Hi Rammsteinace, thank you for the compliments and suggestions. Act 2 gameplay in fact has been completed. The Act is in the finalizing progress. However, due to the Reforged complications and my editor stopped working, the campaign has been put on hold for more than 2 months. At the moment, I don't know when I can keep working on the campaign. I'm just waiting for Reforged updates now.

    At the memory test in edenvale dungeon the circles of power don't light up. Is there any way i can fix this or is there a way to skip and go further?
    ThinhHo
    ThinhHo
    You can't skip it. However, the light doesn't show on the circles must be because the game itself. Try restarting your game or computer or get back to the game a oouple days later. The FX may show after that.

    Another way to do it is to save and guess what circle was lit up. Save everytime you click the right circle. Load every time you click the wrong circle.

    That seems very bad. Welp, that map will be an optional map when it's released so you don't have to go through it.

    Yeah, to be frank, me too. Basically, campaigns always had a special place in my heart for years.
