    Why create a co-op map when you can create a new campaign? I really would love to see more campaign made by you:(

    Possible prize money and fame. Also, a campaign takes way too much time to make. Shadow of the Xel'Naga for Starcraft 2 took me 5,5 years to make. The last WC3 campaign I released was actually in 2009.

    Same, Outsider has made some of the best wc3 campaigns.
    Hey Outsider, I just recently found your campaigns and thoroughly enjoyed day of the dragon, Trying to play Lords of the Clans, but every time i try to launch mission 1 it just black screens. Any idea?
    Hey!!!!, OutsiderXE what are you working on now..........???

    Hello!
    I am working on a co-op map for Starcraft 2, participating in the Rock the Cabinet contest.
    Hail Master Mapper, how have you been doing lately?

    Oh nice, what kind of job? Programming?
    Also nice to hear you're still doing StarCraft 2 mapping.
    OutsiderXE
    OutsiderXE
    Yes, Java Programming.
    Actually wanted to stop with mapping but this contest is something I couldn't ignore.

    Who knows, maybe you are going to end up in a Blizzard office one day? =P

    Oh, well you shouldn't limit your wandering space. However, I could point you to some lore related material although I have no idea how much of it is actually following the full extent of the pre-, post- and in between Warcraft III lore.

    Also, WC3 isn't that interesting for me anymore. Just tending to my projects as they are my babies and people give me the feeling they matter when they think of WC3^^

    I see. Well, then, lots of luck and fun with what you're doing :)
    Greetings OutsiderXE! I've been madly in love with your lore-based campaigns for years now, you've done an amazing work, I can never thank you enough for the many hours of fun I had playing them! I was wondering, however, if you still have the 1.02 version of The Last Guardian, can you send it to me? I find the new version rather easy to beat, and I'm very nostalgic of the original version I played so long ago!
    Hey OutsiderXE, I loved all your campaigns on Warcraft III, they were fantastic and had heavy lore so I really enjoyed playing them. Since you worked on Warcraft based Novels for your previous campaigns, I was wondering if you were planning on working on the Rise of the Horde novel storyline and making it into a campaign, I saw that you were interested in getting the ressources of Hardtime who dropped the project.

    Hello. I got his resources but it was more out of curiosity than anything else. I'm currently working on a big update on TLG. I have no plans to start any new project.

    Oh ok, I was just wondering as I said. I'll be waiting for that update to go through TLG again then ;)
    Are you planning to make anything else with the Galaxy Editor? Just curious.
    deepstrasz
    deepstrasz
    Hmm. Then, what about Warcraft III mapping?
    OutsiderXE
    OutsiderXE
    I have a big update for The Last Guardian in the works (no release date). After that I might update all 3 campaigns again with smaller fixes, just to make sure everything's running smoothly. No new content.

    I'm currently in the process of creating an application for a german game studio; if thinks go well, you'll still get to see maps made by me^^ More info on that probably early next year.

    Great. So, basically you're just leaving SCII out but would still work on WcIII content.
    Kali tihi!
    Hey, is there a chronological order you recommend we play your campaigns in?
    OutsiderXE
    OutsiderXE
    1.TLG-2.DotD-3.LotC. But you might want to hold back on playing TLG. I've a huge update coming in the next month or two. Also, except for a few easter eggs they are independent storylines.

    (Post) Well, they could have made her human, still a forced breed and that would have made more sense with her knowing the language. But, that would meant a lot of time for the orcs and humans clashing before Blackhand finally died.
    Hey man, how about you upload your custom campaign in our StarCraft II section? :)
    OutsiderXE
    OutsiderXE
    Two-player-co-op and choosing difficulty level only works through Battle.net. Also, I don't want to have to tend to more download sources than I have to in case I update the campaign again.

    I understand that people might want to look at triggers and map design. Sometime in the fiture I might make the maps able to be opened through the editor.

    I just found out someone translated all 3 of my warcraft 3 campaigns into russian :D Unfortunately it's not the newest version fpr DotD (and TLG will be updated soon). I admire the work people put into these things.

    That is insane.
    I'm not surprised, your maps are what got so many people into custom campaigns.
    Oh hey, didn't know you were still active here.

    I think it would be a proper thing to do to thank you for cool campaign experience you delivered with your DoD campaign. That was so far the best out of all custom campaigns i played. It wasn't perfect, but it was diverce and pleasureable.
    Sounds good, and yea - it could be a fun little reward thing. Much like the TD level in wc3.
    [E]clipse is awesome!


    ----------
    love ur campaign !
    ----------
    Which one?^^ Rank them as write about pros and cons^^
    Hehe, that sounds like it will make things harder. Heck, you might even consider, for fun to include a hidden option for removing the cooldown, when it is implemented. Like an extra reward to add some craziness to a previously played act.
    Had a blast with a friend playing your SC2 campaign coop. I loved the idea of placing a CV/application at the end :smile: Also, some unintentional fun was had with the stealth mission chapter, as it had several things making it quite broken for stealth, but an awesome experience for the sheer humor of it (Like the protoss hero being teleported across the map if caught, that thanks to a fast run speed, you can just out run and kite every enemy). But thats just some minor flaws, and as whole my friend and I really enjoyed it.

    My friend became interesting in playing it coop, because he recalled your name from your old wc3 campaigns.
    Yeah, I remember playing Falstad without that ability back then. I think I haven't played the most recent version though, so I dunno.

    That's the most important thing, that nothing gets broken, I agree.
    I still remember the patch that broke your Rhonin campaign.
    Let's hope this won't happen again, shall we? ;)
    Just a notice: The links to your great campaigns: The second one of them, you have switched the links around, so the first doesn't link to Hive, but your site. Actually I would likely suggest just naming them (Hive & Direct download), instead of just having numbers.
    Want more people to notice those great stories. Also I just noticed that you made a SC2 campaign, so now I have something I must play soon. I loved your DoD back then.
    Forgot to add for my rep comment that I agreed with the sentiment you expressed in that post.
    It says something about experimentation, new strategies, so you could just think of something... like creating a "new" game but keeping the points they've mentioned in mind. Basically, you could try to make an islands full map since I've seen none or one with a lot of bridges (even maybe some of them able to be destroyed) or something :)

    Besides I've seen on your blog that you've made some melee maps for SCII.
    I see. Since LotV added some really cool stuff I might not have to work a lot with the Data Editor.

    I guess I'll try it again. Thanks for the detailed answer! :)
    Hey there great campaign designer,

    I've been playing around with the SC2 editor quite a bit and I didn't like it at all. Especially the Object Editor.
    Still, I think you have much more experience with that thing so I wanted to know: How's creating campaigns with it?
