I'd recommend posting some screenshots of the campaign in order to entice people in

Thanks for the tip! I'll do as soon as I get the time to

Strange, it works perfectly fine for me... You get an error message or the chapter simply doesn't load? Which patch are you playing with? Sorry you had trouble

1.24 - 1.27

 

[sergei 23]

Why is the campaign not for version 1.31? I only have two versions
One is 1.31
And the other version 1.32.10
And that's it!

I'm stuck on chapter 3, I saved the villagers and am now stuck in there, every exit from the village zone is either blocked by an invulnerable rock wall or an invisible wall.
I tried an ISEEDEADPEOPLE and I guess the next step would be to join the argent crusade camp but there's an invisible wall on the way.
I guess it's supposed to be that way until we save the villagers and there's an issue with the trigger ? Can you confirm ?
Or am I missing something ?
I use 1.29 by the way

Whopsie! You're right that's a bug. I fixed it and now should work but you can continue from your save, just be sure to kill Isillien last...

I tried in a previous patched version of my war3. You're right, chapter four and eight are bugged, maybe because I finished them in 1.29 editor version. I will work and try to fix the problem :'(

I noticed that darions Volatile light heals are not accurate. I had a footman with 120hp and used it on him and it only healed him to 172 even though the tooltip says 200 over 4 secs

 

[Arthas_the_Mad]

After the interlude folloing ch2, i'm sent back to the game menu. Has this sort of thing happened to anyone else? i thried to times, and i get the same result. It's the interlude where darion leaves the crusade and creates the argent dawn.

 

[Resyak]

I really like your interior designs. I have only played the first chapters but I think that if you keep working on this campaign, you can get a high quality product.

Regards.

Any chance to see some ingame screenshots?

Yes, I really don't know why but I can't load automatically the next chapter but the button for the next level should be visible anyway

Screenshots added!

 

[Ardenaso]

looking good! finally an Argent Crusade campaign

 

[shadowhog]

I dont know if anyone else has noticed this but there is a slight stutter in the chapters where you get the argent crusade buildings.
Like in chapter 3 before you kill Isllian or w/e his name was, it would stutter a tad every few seconds. And this would go away though once you are able to control the units and buildings.
Had this also happen in chapter 5 during the cutscene. I dont know if its cause of the version i am running or what

Sounds great. Just a small marketing tip. If the campaign is based on the comic I would emphasize your "marketing" more on it. Meaning, I would rename the campaign to "Ashbringer" and add an image from one of the comics as the thumbnail.

 

[erfaned]

looks good, I will hopefully give it a try

 

[revenge34]

When will it be released

 

[burning]

Nice campaign mate!!!Could get some upgrades, like some new skins and some new levels. Also try to give alexandros new abilities and give a much more powerful item ashbringer both pure and corrupted. I liked the campaign but the story in wow showed an undead darion caring corrupted ashbringer. Nice campaign thought.

 

[Zydler]

When will it be released

You can already download it. It's playable only for 1.29 for now, I'm working on a version compatible for older versions. Being a custom campaign it's not compatible with Reforged though

Thanx! I used default paladin spell for Alexandros 'cause lorewise he trained with Uther and the others Paladins, so it's a way to show a warrior rooted in "past traditions". The story so far follows the comic book released by Blizzard and it's set prior to WoW. I changed a little the plot though to be more challenging in a rts capaign blizzard-style

Thanx for the advice! You have a point indeed. I'll prepare a more captivating image for the thumbnail

man i was waiting for someone to make a campaign about alexandros and you just did it i will try it for sure

Ok well if your son Renault is left alone with you and youre tired don't drop your sword and you'll be fine

Well, I really liked the execution so far. Very nice campaign. Pros:
-Scarlet Crusade monastery interior design is just perfect. It really captures the religious and medieval ambiance well. I have high hope for this to be the best grace.
-Heroes spells are well-thought-out and nicely executed. I personally preferred Darion at so many missions. Ashbringer spells are well-balanced and nice. Yet another securing grace.
-Argent Crusade mission element is nice and well-grappled.
Suggestions:
-Techtree needs to be polished, imo. Argent Crusade units have just standard abilities of their respective races. I suggest adding different abilities to further carve out the techree. Also, what about adding racial, specific upgrade that affects all units at a high cost? This could be each unit gaining increased regeneration and attack damage against undead (since their primary goal is to eradicate undead). Also, Gryphon Rider is not benefitting from attack and armor upgrades; that was a minor bug. Also, I think paladins should be granted extra more spells; these could be "power word" where he casts autocast spell that increases damage and resistance, and maybe single-unit "resurrection". The promotion cost of footman to paladin can be increased to balance with this. I think archers should have active ability of elune's grace that increases the movement and attack speed that makes them even more effective. Same goes for Scourge and Scarlet Crusade; where the new units could be added.
-As for heroes, I think Kel'thuzad's model should be changed. He is Archlich after all and being given a purple lich model is underwhelming. I think demi-heroes should be resurrected at altar after completion of Naxxramas mission (and yeah, they also don't benefit from upgrades; a minor bug). OR each mission completed with them surviving can be rewarded with enhanced abilities and power (and, specifically at the last mission, what about making them full heroes?).
-Naxxramas mission should have more boss fights involving Cult of the Damned. The halls kinda felt empty. Also, what is the use of killing 'strange creature' in this mission? I thought killing all of them would gift nice item or artifact. Also, some boss fights should have more difficulty especially Scarlet Crusade xD. So far, these are my thoughts. I hope you will enhance it even more and make it perfect. Good luck!

Nah mate he was a respected paladin maybe as strong as uther , but he deserves unique abilities and also a much more powerful ashbringer item. And the story its good a bit strange but its good. Try to make more levels ,that would be amazing.

 

[OutsiderXE]

I played the first couple of minutes until I had to do something else. Hope you take feedback. The campaign has a lot of potential.
Initial thoughts:

• Intro cinematic generally looks good when there are many people speaking. Many camera switches and mostly good camera placement. Some camera movement is a bit weird, e.g. in the beginning with Alex at the grave and those long unfocused movements with the tree blocking too much of the view.
• Have not played the first map much but felt a bit too big for the objective.
• Red fog/tint is a bit too strong for my taste.
• Unless for some specific reason the Ashbringer should be a (passive) ability and not an item, just to save some inventory space.
• Credits map looked fun^^

• Increase the far clipping for your cameras to avoid the black borders for terrain that is far away
  Example Before:

• Example After:

[sergei 23]

Dude he does not let me play continue to play to the next stage straight out it seems to me that the company has bugs

 

[sergei 23]

Do you understand?

 

[OutsiderXE]

Do you understand?

Which Chapter couldnt you start? I am not the creator but maybe I can take a look.

 

[OutsiderXE]

@Zydler

Potentially your naming conventions for the maps within your campaign, with hyphens and spaces cause some people to not be able to start maps.

This can be problematic when the map directory for players is quite long. I used to have this problem with my own campaigns.

Instead of using something like "01 - LoA 01.w3x" use something simple like "A01.w3x", "A02.w3x" etc.

Chapter 3

 

[sergei 23]

Dude, what do you recommend for this game? The company by names in new folders and if name or delete and reinstall? <

I don't think there is much you can do as a user. The creator has to edit the campaign -- and then it might still not work.

I do not produce the company I play with when a new company comes out

wait if you can t start chapter 3 so why i don t have the same problem i mean we have the same version but i can play the chapter 3

 

[erfaned]

Hi can i play this with patch 1.28?

 

[OutsiderXE]

Its likely the full path for the directory where the maps are is too long. Custom campaigns can only support a certain number of characters for paths and maps. And each PC is a bit different so your path may be shorter. Its likely this campaigns map names are too long. You could test this by renaming the campaign to something with a super long name, more than 64 characters or so.

 

[sergei 23]

This is my version

 

[OutsiderXE]

Show us the full path for the folder where you put the campaign please.

Sorry you had trouble Sergei 23, sadly I currently own only version 1.29 'cause I don't want to upgrade to Reforged. In my version every level load just fine, I'm not quite skilled in compatibility issues, right now I'm working on a version compatible with older versions and maybe an enhanced version. I'll follow OutsiderXE advice for the map naming and hopefully the issues would be resolved

 

[sergei 23]

I have both

and Reforged and ver 1.31.1 and 1.26a

[PcGamer0_0]

This looks cool i will try it now

 

[sergei 23]

Dude I'm stuck in episode 7! I have come to the end and am not going through a stage at all!

If the game crash when you enter in the cave try the version I added for 1.26 compatibility. I found that the issues for not loading levels were some MP3 tracks so I cut custom music from this version. Hope you can play It without any more issues
