While creating a campaign in HD, I noticed a huge lack of decorative models. Looking at the SD asset collection that had been developed for years, the HD maps felt “empty.” Having absolutely no knowledge of 2D or 3D graphics, I decided to make as much as I could in the simplest way possible — so using RMS I made simple edits to models to cut something out or combine something with something else. This is how a fairly rich set of my assets was created, most of which I have used in this...
Hey guys! I am happy to announce that Ties of Blood and Fang - Act I: Fate of the Gilneans is complete! I will have to do some final testing and release the campaign as discussed. Stay tune!
Don't like a UI element's position? Players can now drag and reposition any UI element using the mouse.
Quick update what has happened "behind the scenes". Systems: TerrainDamage - Lava and other hostile environment now causes damage to the units. GatherNodes - improved system with sublibraries which now can be managed together with ItemManager. Basically, helps me to create coherent gather node spawn points / timers for herbs, fishs, ore veins, crystals veins and etc. Terraining There has been some terrain work around the whole map, mainly focusing on the dungeon/indoor areas. Here is...
ToUR: Tribes Originally, a stand-alone race for Quilboars with Centaur being added years ago. Tauren is currently being developed to make the perfect trio. ToUR: Kingdoms The newest addition to the factions, focusing on two human organizations from the opposite continent. ToUR: Bloodsail (Outdated in Favor of ToUR: Villain) The second custom race created, originally featuring a pirate group being made as a front for the clandestine operations...
The map is now in an alpha state and ready for testing. If you are interested PM me.
So in this update, besides adding a few more things, I changed the mana supply system. 1) I always wanted the logistics to be a challenge and make things more immersive, but also not ruin the flow of the game. By replacing the somewhat buggy "Spirit Touch" based mechanic that would often decide to exclude units seemingly at random (even though they were part of the allowed targets, and would sometimes work) with the more modest brilliance aura, I am hoping to produce a better balance. 2)...
Hovering your mouse over a character slot now shows the character's model and name.
Ladies and gentlemen, you had to wait for this for a long time! A crusade, familiar faces, a siege and an ominous reunion await you! And... a choice. Or is it more than one? The next chapter of the Path of the Nameless has been added to Legacy of Arkain! You can find the new version here in Downloads. Enjoy and don't forget to share your thoughts in the New Content Discussion! General: Replaced the Orc Hunter unit with Arbalist MANY new models for both heroes and units of the Dominion...
The shop UI now displays costs for each item and your current gold amount. Check out the shop UI in action!
Hello everyone! I'm the creator and current developer of Legacy of the Dwarves. The campaign is currently in the early stages of development. The general script and mission structure are finished; all that's left is to create the missions! At the moment, two playable missions and two cinematics are complete. I'll update the campaign's progress periodically, and I'll announce release dates when they're available. Thanks in advance to anyone interested! - SoyMante
The idea was giving the players to ability to collapse or extend a part of the Equipment UI via the mouse. This part was meant for customizing each individual ability that the player's hero learns. This was a test run to see if it could be done or how well it would work.
First look at the custom UI that will be available to the players in game. Textures and images used are just placeholders. The design for each UI element is WIP and may be subject to change as the development of the project progresses.

Thanks to @Tasyen for all the amazing systems that made this possible.
So here is an updated version of the demo map. What I did was to update one or two models and most of all fix a few things. One of the most annoying bugs was that sometimes, no matter how many units were shooting at a flag pole, it wouldn't change owner. My recent tests suggests I have now fixed that. (EDIT: I now also quickly fixed a mistake I only just noticed, the fort HQ didn't have any mana.) I also wanted to add a 256x256 version for fewer players, and I got one ready, but in the...
I met this amazing model maker named "Kuma" from another warcraft website, and they allowed me to use their collection of Hero models for ComicBook Heroes Reforged. The problem is some are setup to run like Naruto Anima stuff. It works ok on the Thor model because he has a cape, but with Cyclops it just looks goofy. I have tried repeatedly to contact them again over the years as they are the creator of the Cyclops model to see if they will help fix. I have done some model modding yet not...
I just got a new Jean Gray model to replace the high elf sorceress I was using thanks Njord. I was going to edit the WC3 model, but the size was too large once saved, so this works out perfect. Been trying to get some more pics before opening the project page to all and just working on finishing Hero base powers mostly. Lots to do, but i think it's gonna be pretty sweet when done. All who have tested it so far love it and even had a couple of "back in the day players" check it out and...
Version 4.7 introduces the new Joker card. Read more in the patch notes!
First off, much praise and thanks to the Hive community! To all that built Hive, the model makers, the skin editors, the spell makers and all you JASS masters. Even the first version of ComicBook would never have been possible without the ever-lasting community of amazing Warcraft 3 players and creators. We just can't let it go, and with reforged they just keep pulling us back in. 😁 A little history of ComicBook itself: I'm an old-school gamer from the start of online computer gaming on...
