use image tag for your screenshot cause nobody going to copy and paste the link to view it.

dead-man-walking · Jul 6, 2010

My eyes were gouged from the lack of hidden tag for the Screenshots here...

Fix it! If you wonder how, there's a link to BBCodes in my Sig.

Rangerdeaths · Jul 6, 2010

Thanks, i fixed that.

manzman · Jul 6, 2010

This is basically a remake of The Impossible Map. Same concept, and same setting.

Zanekok · Jul 6, 2010

Created by RangerDeath and Uploaded by RangerDeaths ? You are copying name of creator or you are creator?

WherewolfTherewolf · Jul 6, 2010

This is basically a remake of The Impossible Map. Same concept, and same setting.

It's a puzzle map, and hopefully one that aims to be more then are you a retard, cut it some slack, there's a lack of good puzzle games for wc3.

Anyways, I'm going to have to test this

Septimus · Jul 6, 2010

could just use 1 hidden tag for all screenshot instead of 1 hidden tag per ss.

WherewolfTherewolf · Jul 6, 2010

Well I was going to open it up to take a look at the triggers, but it's protected
Still haven't played it yet... will get to that later

Rangerdeaths · Jul 6, 2010

Yeah the map is taking the same "system" as "the impossible map".
However, it's really not the same levels/puzzle and so on. (Well the level 1/2 are really well known, else i think everything is more or less new.)

My name is Rangerdeaths here because i lost the mail adress of a "Rangerdeath" count i created or something like that. If needed, you could whisp "Rangerdeath" in game to verify.

BlackKnightTGS · Jul 6, 2010

Nice map, 3/5, I like it :grin:

. It once crashed on the level 5, but it didn't crash later on. Vote for Approval!

EDIT: Changed my mind, 4/5. :grin:

Rangerdeaths · Jul 7, 2010

Oh really it crashed? Never happened before, what were you doing when it crashed?
Well i changed some triggers that should prevent that, even if i can't upload the map right now.
By the way, how far have you been in the map?^^

Edit : Uploaded a new version which should correct this crash and prevent another bug.

Luffy · Jul 7, 2010

I am stuck at the level 10, tell me the numbers please, how hard I try I couldn't get them and my skips are spent

Rangerdeaths · Jul 7, 2010

Which levels did you skip? You should try to find these levels to have a skip left for the level 10 ^^
Level 10 is the hardest level probably.

BlackKnightTGS · Jul 7, 2010

I tried to...uhh....well, I was trying to get the tone right, and when I was done, it crashed. It's a good thing I remembered the sequence :xxd:

Coaster_Man · Jul 7, 2010

If you want your map to be good puzzle map I would suggest you take out random death triggers. I attempted to play your map and at the very beginning I walk up the little cliff and die. Oh, apparently there was fire, where i cannot see. Great. Oh, how stupid of me, I should have known that if i go down far enough I can simply walk up the cliff?? How is that a puzzle at all? Also, I came to a room where there were two paths, one with torture traps, the other with people and children. I walk down the "safe" route and die instantly at the end. Oh silly me again, of course I was suppose to walk up the cliff and down the other side?? How at all is this a puzzle, it is more of a test-everything-I-can-think-of theory until I stop dying.
And yes, I say the child who's name was (I'm Evil) or whatever. But I walked near him and didn't die.

kidsoulex · Jul 7, 2010

Theres better maps than this, im always dieing here and there...

Rangerdeaths · Jul 7, 2010

How sad is to die if you revive 2 seconds later 3 feets ago? It's a way of game. That's not really important in my opinion, even if i can understand that you dislike.

"How at all is this a puzzle, it is more of a test-everything-I-can-think-of theory until I stop dying."
This is the 2 first levels, go to next levels to have "real" puzzles. I can't make something too hard for the beginning.

oh hahaha, yeah I understood, I guess you have pointed the hint at quest log. "keep your skip for the hardest one" and so then this is really the hardest one and there is no way to pass it without skip. Did I get right?

I have skipped archmage vs. gatekeeper level (if I remember correctly, I have gave my items to gatekeeper and they have just disappeared, so I totally stuck at level)

and secondly, I guess I have skipped at 3rd or 4th level, there were strange things items, a market with 100 gold-100 wood teleport somewhere thing and there was a lever with several gates. I couldn't find anything and skipped.

thnx for the map, its the best puzzle map I've ever seen (it would be insult to call it a retard map, because it's way different and way better than them)

Rangerdeaths · Jul 8, 2010

The level 10 could be done without skip ^^
It's just that the solution is really new and nobody think about it. Moreover, it's a very very long level.

If everything works as intented, every item that you give to the gatekeeper are sent to the ground, so you can get them again.

Well the level with "?" isn't easy also, but it makes a sense^^
I think that if you play with enough players, they will find one of this levels.

HarchNode · Jul 8, 2010

My two friends and I played this map, really enjoyed it.

We got every single puzzle except the one with the 5 question marks and the lever, skipped that one.

In response to the level with the two paths, we actually thought it was a refreshing change since most games that have them will force you to pick one of two and you usually die at one. The crossing in the middle was creative

.

There's one thing that one of my friends kept doing, don't know if you intended it to happen. On level 2, where you pass the room and can't reach the teleporters, there's that chicken you kill and get the strange note. If you wait long enough near the edge of the invisible barrier, the chicken will eventually walk over and you can kill it, letting you get to that room with the teleporters all over the place.

One more thing is that the level with the spinning blades, I would suggest making the HP of that last one the same as the others. I figured out that level really easily because I have the option that shows HP bars all the time. All the dangerous blades had long bars and the right one had this skinny little square so I figured something was up

.

Anyway, my friends and I really enjoyed your map and we definitely are waiting for more puzzles

Hi and thanks for your comment ^^
Well the part with the teleporter rooms isn't a bug really, as there is something to search in this new room, and it doesnt help you to do latter puzzles (well, at least in latest versions). The teleporters are in acces after the level 11 also.

lol, I was playing alone, I did went all the way through level 10 myself, I couldn't have found anything and at last given up in the end of that game, at 10th level. so close to the end. and also, I tried putting some gems to the golem but it didnt work and I couldn't took the spawned items back so close to him. Could you fix it? lol

lol and when I give items to gatekeeper (at the level with archmage), items did just disappeared, I couldn't see them on his inventory too. and I just couldn't find what to give him next, lol. And I got extremely curious about the 10th level.

Could you give some extra hints about level with ? items, archmage vs. gatekeeper level and 10th level? 10th level must be a real deal because you're saying its too long. The longest one (which almost was killing me cause of boredom) I've ever seen was just the level before 10th, lol.

Rangerdeaths · Jul 11, 2010

I will try to do something about items.

For the 9th level, it isnt random of course, lol, it has a logic behind it so you shouldn't pass so much time on it.

I will send you some hints.

phoenixfire · Jul 11, 2010

I almost beat level 10, but I can't find the 3rd key... can you please tell me where it is? All I see is invulnerable shades, nothing else D:

EDIT: Found the key, now I can't get past the 4th gate. Is the moon crystal of any use?

Luffy · Jul 12, 2010

remember the request of the golem. look at moonstone and think hard.

Rangerdeaths · Jul 12, 2010

remember the request of the golem. look at moonstone and think hard.

That's it ^^

phoenixfire · Jul 12, 2010

The only thing that hints me here is 99. Must be part of the code. Idk the other 2 numbers :S

EDIT: I also can't figure out the unknown object thing. I even organized them like you did in the screenshot

. I had like 7 of my friends try it they couldn't figre it out either. Also, what to do on 11?

Scavman · Jul 12, 2010

im trying to solve level 10 3 hours already, i think its a bug because i open the second and third doors... i even found the shade which is responsible for the first door but he is on a cliff and there is no possible way i can get there

phoenixfire · Jul 12, 2010

Very clever on level 10!

Rangerdeaths · Jul 12, 2010

The 99 on the item you found isn't a hint. You just have to use it, and then somehow you have the answer (a 4 numbers answer).

Please nuuh, edit your "answer" or send him a private message, i would like not to give answer on this thread if possible.

phoenixfire · Jul 12, 2010

K sry, also level 14 glitches when skipped.

Speaking of bugs, the glave's shooting missiles.

Rangerdeaths · Jul 13, 2010

Thanks for reporting bugs.
Well, it's true that the level 14 skip is caugin me trouble ...

About the blade, wow

crazy bug. I don't really know what could cause that, but i'm looking into triggers.

thisruoy · Jul 13, 2010

at the chicken level, my friends and I all get fatal error when the chicken dies.

Noobius · Jul 14, 2010

Argh...Got stuck on level 12...WITH just 5 deaths. Could you tell me what to do there? I ran out of skips. The dirty hints part, what does it do? The C.N. jokes did not help at all! Anyways, good puzzle map. The chicken part and the part with the 5 question marks was fun. So little tooltips or hints though... 3/5!! Would be 6/5 if there are going to be enough hints and more fun puzzles added.

Kusipukki · Jul 15, 2010

Lal I dont even know how to open first level cuz cannot find key

Rangerdeaths · Jul 15, 2010

Well, all i can tell you is that the answer is about the dirty hint ^^
You have to found a way to make it readable. Not really hard.

EDIT, the 06/18 :
-Fixed major things
-Added 3 more hidden (fun) item.

Kusipukki · Jul 15, 2010

well, I got claws of attack that does not work, and an useless joke, (thats good joke

) but level 1 is still inpossible! I work with it 1h / day or more but cannot realize whats the matter of it
what does that hidden button thing do?
OMG I FINALLY GET IT!

Crave. · Jul 18, 2010

Grr level 11 part 2 please? Great game I have to admit

Rangerdeaths · Jul 18, 2010

Well, i guess you found a way to get to the second room ? ^^
Well, it's the same thing here, just that you have to find another way to ***.
Just remember everything that could **** you ^^

Crave. · Jul 19, 2010

Obviously the 2 blanks are die and kill...
I just cant figure out what can kill me (besides "hugging" the door and clicking the mushroom, which wont get me to the next level)

Rangerdeaths · Jul 19, 2010

Sended you a private message

phoenixfire · Jul 19, 2010

I'm guessing it has something to do with the wheelbarrow or blight...

BlackKnightTGS · Jul 22, 2010

Hey, I found a bug, in level one, you can click the teleporter beyond the gate without even having the key and pass o_o

Rangerdeaths · Jul 22, 2010

Uh, i though i had already corrected that. Well, looking for that again.

By the way, for every players that enjoyed the map, i'm currently working on another puzzles/solve map that i will release in something like one week. It won't be the same style, but i think it will be interesting.

Edit : Uh, i just tested it, i can't get the teleporter without the key. Are you sure you are playing on the latest version?
If you are playing on the latest version, tell me how you manage to see the teleporter through vision blocking

Luffy · Jul 23, 2010

curiously waiting for your new puzzle

Sirmarkis29 · May 28, 2017
