Nice I can't wait to see what you have in store.

Ok guys some new stuff for you all check out this thread http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/terrain-board-267/argos-rise-elements-new-demo-map-terrain-219273/ Check it out and tell me what you think...

Cheers!

Well I have no complains whatsoever about the terrein even though I think that the female model seem extremly colourfull compared to the rest of the envoierment and it looks unormal. Also the mushroom and the bear models seem alitle bit less detailed then the rest of the envoierment and should be remade in my opinon since they really stick out and unusual.

My score: 9.5/10

Thanks for the feedback!

The models we placed there are not what will be in game, he only places them for concepts of where we will actually place them, not exactly the same unit.

Argos will be full of creatures you've never seen before

Also, that terrain is another concept for what the actual map looks like, I believe the demo terrain would be perfect to build off of, but he believes this new concept is better. Unfortunately, we are at an stalemate here and we decided to let the fans decide. This brings me to my topic:

We will be posting a poll soon of both concepts on which we should build off of or start from scratch completely. As soon as I can get Marko9's side of his argument. But for right now, with the link he posted above and the concept screenshots on the first page (Now reorganized), we can start the debate off in this thread.

 

[clockwork2]

Either suits me!

 

[ShadowFlare]

Lol, please choose one,

Right now in my quick opinion, the Demo terrain is more open, I like the layout as we can have a nice centered area for a starting area, not too big, not too open, enclosed area with one exit to leave to next area after learning the basics of the game.

Also on concept #2, the area is very blocked, lots of foliage blocking view. Idk...

you decide

 

[marko9]

Chose wisely...

 

[clockwork2]

WAAAH!!! I don't wanna chose!

 

[Fire Eagle]

This looks really great. I will be patient. I will wait until it's done.

 

[clockwork2]

war3xlocal mpq, does that contain anything important?
EDIT: also, how do I get this? the mpq that is.

 

[HOooDy]

I like the way you present it , and nice logo huh ..
Btw , Keep up the good work , I wish you will finish it.

 

[gorillabull]

ur probably not gonna finish this but good luck

 

[ShadowFlare]

Big update coming soon

 

[clockwork2]

nooooobody answered my question, I'm sad now T.T

War3xLocal? Is that Important? If not, then how do I get it?

Ok, not an exact quote, but you get what I mean...

 

[PurgeandFire]

@clockwork2: ShadowFlare uses a custom war3xlocal.mpq for the map with all the needed imports. He'll release it with the map. Each person playing the map needs to have that war3xlocal.mpq in their Warcraft III folder to see the models properly, otherwise they'll most likely show up as green checkered cubes.

gl with the map, it looks promising.

 

[clockwork2]

Thanks, and that should be great. Can it import sound files too? If so, it'd totally be possible to make a true SC mod.

 

[ShadowFlare]

Yes, it does import sound files too

 

[clockwork2]

sweet, I'm thinking of using this trick for a 2P campaign project.

 

[Eccato]

Wow, this project is awesome. I would really like to play that.

 

[Binsu]

Such amazement is this project! Just by reading this, I am so thrilled to see this game on action. Will be looking forward to this, good luck to you! +REP!

 

[Veritas 117]

This looks awesome! can't wait for the big update. The screenshots look epic, keep up the good work. +rep

This project has been in production for almost 3 years now. Rofl.

 

[ShadowFlare]

Hey guys! Sorry for no updates for a long time, life got in the way and I've been dealing with a bug with JNGP that is stopping progress, I have a whole list of things I need to update the thread with, and hopefully if I get this bug fixed today, I might have a small playable demo that you guys can try and give feedback on.

Be patient a little while longer!

 

[Sin'dorei300]

Can't wait to try this out!

 

[ShadowFlare]

Can't wait to try this out!

Thanks Sin!

I also have some good news! I was able to find an older copy of my code (knew I was smart enough to hide a backup somewhere) and was able to fix the odd bug. For some reason when I tested JNGP 5e with my map and saved it, the compiler was giving me errors in correct code. Anyways, I now have it up and running and ready for a coding spree


EDIT:

Hey, also I was thinking about changing the tileset back to reg War3 tiles, I liked the tone better for some reason, but I wanted to ask you guys what you think, you can compare them on the title page, from Old Screens and Concept 1

 

[pred1980]

Great Project and i like the video. How long you working on the Project and when you release`??

 

[Veritas 117]

Ha! good call, but still I hope this project keeps going, I'm a sucker for amazing terrain.

 

[marko9]

Guys I am happy to say that ShadowFlare and I are rounding things up again and that you should expect some good stuff soon.

 

[HOooDy]

Is it DEAD (

 

[Binsu]

Is it DEAD (

Maybe but the author I know is making progress. I think it just takes long to update....

 

[Bboy Moose]

i guess marko has a lot of work, alongside SoTP and this...:>

 

[ShadowFlare]

No, its not dead.

 

[SWS-Creator Corp.]

how to download?

 

[BandolXD]

Another great RPG !

 

[Faith]

No, its not dead.

Bullshit. >_>

 

[Binsu]

Bullshit. >_>

That good news right?

 

[ShadowFlare]

Please await a new recruitment post/thread...







ps: i may have found a way to allow players to use scroll to zoom in and out with cam

pps: also dgui update may be on its way as well

 

[Faith]

At least you're trying.
Looking forward to some progress, it's gonna be great I'm sure. c:

 

[Ralle]

This looks cool!

 

[marko9]

I'm back, and I am sorry for leaving this project aside for a few months.
Other projects have gotten in the way and after finishing terrain there now I am free to come back to Argos full time.

I want you guys to tell me which of the terrain concepts you prefer, I will remake the terrain anyway but I just want to know what you make of what you can see right now.

The map is currently in concept 2 and I think its the best, still not good, It was done a long time ago so a remake is needed. You can expect new screens when the new starting area is made.

Thank you for you'r patience.

 

[Kanadaj]

Sadly, lately I begun to feel that these amazing maps being done on THW will never be finished T_T

This project looks great.
Just one little thing: Please replace the hero's model
with some cool one. It annoys me that everyone use that model
for a hero, while it looks like a dirty peasant not a hero.

I know what you mean. I think the reason everyone uses it is because most armor and weapon attachments are made to fit it. If someone made a new model that could use all the old attachments I think it would be very popular. Sadly I'm not a modeler.

The character creation will allow you to somewhat customize the ''peasant'', you can make him taller and therefore much more hero like

 

[Heinvers]

Oh that's a great feature? So how's with the terrain's progress. Still to be completed?
