Age of Empires 1

[chilla_killa]

Do what you want

 

[ikillforeyou]

chilla, if you want help, i could probably lower filesize, i'm pretty darned good at doing it =D

just give me some of the models/textures that take up the most fs, and i'll do what i can.

 

[Dr. House]

one sugestion plz dont use the real music/sound of the game cause i never liked it

 

[baassee]

then you just have to turn it off in-game

 

[Eccho]

I think I will put the wall mechanics on hold. I got stuck at the moment and have no proper solution. Feel free to try out something nifty yourself people:>

 

[Master of Eagles]

I made the academy and siege workshop. But I have to tell you something. There isn't any bronze age academy in the game. Would you like me to make a bronze age one?

 

[Eccho]

Ah... there isn't a siege workshop for bronze age either.

 

[Master of Eagles]

Yes. But we can make it ourselves.

 

[chilla_killa]

WTF there is! It just uses the same model.
You don't have to make another one.
@ikillforeyou: I will come to that later, I will PM you, thanks for your offer
@i_brg_doom: I loved it

 

[Restor]

This project looks cool.



1.I dont know if AoE1 has this, but AoE 2 surely has this feature, that if one villager builds building in 60 sec, that doesnt mean that 2 villagers will build it in 30 sec (it will be longer). In AoE II 4 villagers were needed to build building in 30 sec. Did you implement this?

2.Do you use that you can only click ONE unit to be created in the creating line. (not like in w3, when there is 7 unit line) And when it is created, only then you can create another one.

3.and of course in AoE I there is no button for Iddle villager, be sure you will delete it



2&3 are of course irrelevant, but they are in original AoE I.

I really like that idea.
Maybe we can alpha out the rest of the building queue, so there is only one box,
where a unit can be trained. Then we only have to figure out, if it's possible to
disable that more than one unit can't be trained.

 

[Restor]

and of course no relly point

In Rise of Rome it was changed, that you can make more units, but only of one time of units.

, I don't want so sound like a dick but why you want to make gameplay harder? The option to create more unit in a line is there to make it easier for users to manage their military production. Same as for the idle villager button, it is there to make it easier for the player to manage their economy, and in AOM you also have an idle villager button too. I suggest make use of the more advanced engine warcraft 3 has than AOE 1 has.

 

[Master of Eagles]

Damn... it didn't work. Do you know a way which can help me?

 

[Master Creator]

Is this still in production Chilla_Killa???

 

[Menag]

nice, is it still in progress?

2. Totally USELESS. The production line is a must-have for all RTS, if AoE I were created one year after it would have it. This is a nonsense to remove a such feature...

3. Same point than previously, this couple of things is an improvement for all RTS based map, you should not remove them...

 

[chilla_killa]

nice, is it still in progress?

I'm sorry, but it's dead

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

OOOOoo, Noo. Holy Shi*. WHY?

 

[Raj91]

It was going so well, you had updates almost every day for a while. Is it dead, dead, or just stalled?

 

[chilla_killa]

Let's say stalled
For the moment I don't have time for continue working on it.
I have a lot to do for school, I'm playing in band, I'm learning to drive the car and I play tabletennis in a leaque.
But I'm not sure if I ever will have time to work on it again.

 

[Dr. House]

And this whas the story made by the man named chila_killa many respected what he did but unfortionatly he has no time to finish this project. Lets remember this man as a man that helps people and a man that lets nothing stand in his way.

(sorry whas bored )

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

Ahhh. This will be continued?

 

[Raj91]

Hey Chilla_Killa, can we expect this project to be picked up during spring break???

 

[andreasaspenberg]

i have age of empires. however i havent played it for years. i can test the map. possibly fix some bugs as well. though my skills is limited to the object editor.

 

[chilla_killa]

Good News Guys!!!
I started to work on this again.
There was much progress today but I also have some problems now and I expect that you help me fixing it

So this is what I did today:

- animated 3 Buildings and put it into the map
- added trees, created wood ressource system
- added colours to the descriptions
- added an Icon for the Village Center
- added the Chaos abilities for the buildings of the Toolage
- tried to create a training system
- improved terrain and added gazells

Problems:

- can't find an action to cancel the training of a unit
- Villagers who were replaced with the Chaos ability can't build and I don't know why

 

[andreasaspenberg]

i see what the problem with the chaos ability is. it is used by the stoneage worker but change that worker to a toolage hunter. there need to be a different chaos ability for every age.(at least the way things currently work.) i could fix it myself if you let me.

 

[chilla_killa]

I know there must be different Chaos abilities for each Age, but that doesn't explain why the replaced villager can't build, but try to fix it

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

I don't know whats problem with that Chaos ability.
But if you want to stop training units you can try this : Game>Force UI Cancel.
And why you don't set idle icon of a workers to be icon of the worker not the peasant.

 

[chilla_killa]

That with the Force UI Cancel does work.
Thanks, but it will fail, if I fast click very often on training a villager.
+rep for you

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

Thanks, and no problem, i say to all I want to help here because i will play this too. . But if you know jass maybe you can make that faster.

 

[andreasaspenberg]

the stoneage hunter have the storage pit for toolage

 

[chilla_killa]

I will check it and fix it.
Thanks

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

Ej when will you finish a wall create system? And whats with the models? You will post to public?

 

[Svenski]

Cheers to the first RTS I ever played (and still play to this day)! Best of luck on this project, don't ever quit!

 

[Reaper51]

Hey chilla killa, i'm working on an age of empires 2 rts map.
You can ask me for help if you want.
Here's my progress (it's only been 1 week)

 

[chilla_killa]

Do you have a wall build system?
Do you use the Chaos ability, too?

 

[Reaper51]

No i don't have a wall build system yet.
I use models at different angles along with preset paths.
But i will have a system for gates.
Walls and gates are aimed for 4 direction | -- \ /
No i didn't experiment with chaos ability due to some pathing reasons...
PM me with somewhere to contact you (MSN, ICQ, THW Chat, etc)

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

Can you aswer my question?

Ej when will you finish a wall create system? And whats with the models? You will post to public?

 

[chilla_killa]

Oh sorry ^^
The wall system is in my opinion impossible to make.
Maybe in JASS, but I don't know JASS very good.
The models won't be post to public I think.

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

OK. I'm asking you for wall system because you have tell that to one of members here that you will give him system when you finish it. But you have echo in your members, What's with him?

 

[chilla_killa]

I haven't spoken to him since I've started to work on this again.

 

[Reaper51]

The best way to do walls is either to make them by each other like i did, or use JASS
I'm not planning to make a system yet by the way.

LOL you posted before me!

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

Chilla_Killa why you don't put banner again?

 

[chilla_killa]

Too lazy

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

Hahahahah. That isn't big problem. But you have your mind.

 

[warman45]

the problem is each wall will need to detect walls directly adjacent to them, calculate if the are not following a linear pattern (means it's a turn and need a tower) rotate the wall model to be appropriate, and account for gates. Jass? probably possible, GUI?..... get a coder dude cause you're boned if you chose this route.

i really hope this works out. i really dont wanna pay $10 for age of empires 1...... i mean i think this will be a generous contribution to wc3 and i have no problems paying for a great game because im not a cheap ass...... yeah?..... ok....

 

[88WaRCraFT3]

Chilla_Killa still need any help? Im here to help you.

 

[chilla_killa]

Naa, I don't need help atm.

 

[Dr. House]
