[Vengeancekael]

Could you put the credits list in the description? I will then approve your map.

 

[Claw]

Added credits list in the description.

Map still not approved? (

 

[Mgeterno11]

Please do not multi-post, mate. Would you use the edit button instead? Fix this immediately. So please delete the second post and then paste to the first post which you have posted to the second post.
Do not take this personally, i just want to help you.
Thanks.
This map seemed to be cool according to the screenshots, i will test it.

I tested it and i really like it! I hope it will be approved. I rate it 5/5.
I like the units, the gameplay and the items, too! Good work.
I like the new abilities, lots of creativity lie in this and the epic choice of the heroes! The terrain is good, too, really sunken-citadel-type.

Thanks.
But the triggers can be made better, I know it now. And it will be in the new versions.
Also, you can download and change Open-Source now, if you want it.

I hope it will be approved

I too )

 

[Mgeterno11]

You are welcome. I am glad that i could help. Well, good luck with the triggers.

 

[Vengeancekael]

herpy derpy approved
sorry about the long wait

 

[Presley0402]

Not bad at all.

 

[Raiden]

I actually liked the terrain from an older version of this map... can you provide me with it? New one is too symmetrical, it's boring!

 

[Claw]

Raiden, i think about new terrain, but it's hard for me. I am afraid to make terrain worse than current. With import terrains from other creators also was problems. Maybe, if i create beta with new land, i shall lay out link here, for the choose.
On old snow terrain no one wanted to battle on "long" line, all goes to fight on "short". Not very good, too ^^ But you can still download old versions on epicwar, but they has some bugs and problems, especially in netplay.
Thanks a lot for the rate.


Added: i really like that great model for hero. And i create a test-map - hero with this model. Of course, If i place it into the Battle for Souls, i will add Epsilon in Credits. Who what thinks?

Download link (i think, isn't problem? But fix if needed)

EPSILON, TOWER SPIRIT

Map is Open-Source.

 

[Claw]

Double-post, because it's update.

[switchtotems]

hello , i logged in that russian site and i downloaded the open source version but couldnt open it in world editor i dont know whats the problem i think you use some add-ons a different UI ... maybe you can help me to open the map ... btw im really interested in co-operating with you on this map and make it better ... if you accept a partner

 

[wR3n.DarKy]

no realy...the thx....good map..))

 

[Claw]

switchtotems, thx for comment and rate. Try to open map in Jass New Gen Pack, but she must open even in usually World Editor. Try to wait longer. If you want then to make map better - you can create individual version for himself or upload your versions here. If your changes become very good, i think, i copy that changes into official version and can add you into Credits.

 

[switchtotems]

tried to open it in world editor several times i reinstalled the warcraft 3 and still dont open i wait like 30 seconds 1 minute then it says dont send error ... i believe you use a special tipe of editor if you have a link to it please post it here . btw if you want add me on [email protected] maybe you help me open this map ...

 

[Claw]

switchtotems, i use JNGP and license version of WarCraft III with last patch, and Windows 7. You are not first, who has problems with open or save version without protection, but now i don't know, how to help with that: i can open and correctly save version even in usually World Editor, and I don't know, why some other peoples can't. Maybe later.

 

[switchtotems]

ok post the direct link to the unprotected version ... maybe i didnt got the corect version ... maybe the version i got was unopenable and uneditable

 

[Claw]

No,no, if you download that version: http://clawbfs.ucoz.ru/BFS_3.4_Open_Eng.w3x - that's it, it's she... Also, try to open map on other computers... anyway, i repeat, i don't know now, why some peoples can't open or save my gigant. I test that link now again and i can download, open and save map from that link...

 

[switchtotems]

theres no way a normal editor can open and edit that map the database is corrupted you should have not tell people it is open source because it aint...i could have helped you with the english grammar in the map and several new stuff

 

[Claw]

theres no way a normal editor can open and edit that map the database is corrupted

I don't know, i repeat - i can open it even in usually World Editor some other peoples can too. Try to test on other machines and look at my configuration, maybe it can help. It's my open version, i work with it, without changes, i change only file name with update. Maybe it because database is so big.

It's interesting. Can you open that? (i removed all triggers)
http://clawbfs.ucoz.ru/BFS3.4EngNOTRIGGERS.w3x

 

[switchtotems]

you post only protected versions ... at least if you dont wanna give the open source to wide world give it just to me ill make a version save the changelog send it to you if you like you approve it and we make co-op partners or add me on yahoo messenger and open team viewer enter my pc and try to open the map .... so you see it wont work neither ways

 

[Claw]

you post only protected versions ... at least if you dont wanna give the open source to wide world

I really don't know, i can open it, just in World Editor, if you can't open version even without triggers... i REALLY don't know... I DON'T protect that versions...
Can anyone else open map from last link?

 

[switchtotems]

i can open even the one from your site ... and i can open this without the triggers but both are unsaveable or playable in warcraft 3 ... this is the problem ... try to play this map in warcraft just like it is http://clawbfs.ucoz.ru/BFS_3.4_Open_Eng.w3x

 

[Claw]

Ok, so you can OPEN the maps, but you can't SAVE it correctly after that for play in WarCraft. Even including version WITHOUT triggers? Hm... Try to activate "allow the use of negative values in the Object Editor" (sorry for my bad english, but, i think, you understand me). If it can't help - sorry, now you can just look on open versions, nothing more. But, i think, someone can make versions working after save, if it become really needed. Even if i can't. I gave all that i can now.

 

[Claw]

New hero Mad Hatter created into Testmap! (just map with that hero) http://clawbfs.ucoz.ru/MadHatter.w3x Of course, i will add authors of model and icon for him into Credits of the next version.

Battle for Souls 3.6b:

-Fixed some minor bugs

 

[Naman]

For the gravitators toss ability... why does it want me to target a unit instead of using the aoe damage?

 

[Claw]

For the gravitators toss ability... why does it want me to target a unit instead of using the aoe damage?

You must target a unit with that ability. After that, Gravitator launches random nearby unit (friend or foe) to position of unit, which is target of spell, and deals AoE damage when that unit lands.

 

[Claw]

[Masokist91]

hello , i'm very interested in building this map with you ! i am the creator of Humans vs Orcs BETA check my map if you want ... i think we can build this map great together of course if you want ! this is a proposal for continuing this map together . waiting for your reply and check my map by the way . Thanks !

 

[Claw]

Masokist91, first time: can you open and save open-source from my map now? (look on my site, you can find open-source on that site). If you can do it, you even can create your version of my map. If you want to help me with my version - i really need only hero-creators and, maybe, JASSers for optimizing code. All other helpers i can found fast on our forum when i need it ^) About your map: give link on your version, please, i will check it later.

 

[Masokist91]

well first of all i downloaded that version and it seems it occurs some problem with the database when i try to save and the game will crash either will lagg like hell when i try to open it , maybe i need the settings of your world editor and warcraft "folder settings" like UI and stuff nevertheless heres my map btw http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/maps-564/humans-vs-orcs-beta-213096/?prev=search=hvo&d=list&r=20 . if this map wont work and if you are up for some co-op we can work on a beatifull original ideea of my own wich im pretty sure that will blow the mind of many gamers . Have a good day and Thanks !

 

[Claw]

Masokist91 , ok, i know that some peoples have problems with my open-source, maybe it because map just very big I really don't know how to help now.

About your map: isn't bad, really! Some ideas of spells good, at least, and system of buying spells like in HOSK AoS - i like it. I have a small lag during gameplay, but maybe it's a problem with my computer. Anyway, i repeat - isn't bad.

About help me. I repeat: i really don't very need IDEAS. I constantly read hon-dream, playdota and many other places with hero suggestions. I have very big collected (and created by me, too) hero ideas.

You can help me that way:
1) Positive ratings of the game and its distribution.
2) Hosting.
3) Creation FULL heroes in individual maps. They must be properly designed and configured. Should not have leaks, bugs, lags. You must be really good JASS-creator for doing that. Check that maps (open-sources) for sample of design:

http://clawbfs.ucoz.ru/Tower_Spirit.w3x

http://clawbfs.ucoz.ru/Scoundrel.w3x

http://clawbfs.ucoz.ru/Woodpiece.w3x

http://clawbfs.ucoz.ru/Shark_Pirate.w3x

You can create heroes (if you can) from my instructions, or create your hero with your ideas, but i can change any skills of your hero if i want it for balance and originality.
If you want and need it, i can leave a trial order.

Perhaps later I will prepare a document with detailed instructions for those wishing to help create the heroes.

And anyway - thanks, too!

 

[andre5913]

I think im felling z bug , in the satellite hero , the ultimete (supernova ) first tge descripcion is odd, first it says "dealt" of you men that he(she) causes 600 damage then use "deals" , because of this im not even sure if you meant , each time he deals that damage of he recieves it.Second , the ability does not seem to trigger ever , or at least , i haven't noticed ,does it have visiual effect at least?.
Otherwise , this is very llikely the best aos map that i have ever played , much better than dota

 

[Claw]

andre5913, thanks a lot!

About Supernova: she works when Satellite TAKES damage (maybe my english isn't very good), and has a small visual effect, which looks like this:

http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/801/satelliteh.png/

This is good combination with Paradox: you can damage himself for triggering Supernova.

 

[DeathKing12]

Hay dude I like this but how do i add hero bots i dont understand the commands -d and -c

Hay i open your map but it says invalid object

 

[Claw]

DeathKing12 , press "Enter" in game to open chat and type "-b" or "-c" (without ""), then press the "Enter" again.

About problems with open my map look at previous messages.

 

[DeathKing12]

DeathKing12 , press "Enter" in game to open chat and type "-b" or "-c" (without ""), then press the "Enter" again.

About problems with open my map look at previous messages.

Ill check the previous messages cause i wanna make my Suggestions
Oh yeah also the chat command does it have to be on lan or just custom game

 

[DeathKing12]

Hay Can I make A custom Version Of ushrlock to make more towers hes my favorite
Also Can you send me the map files of only him as the unit

 

[Claw]

You can launch unlimited (!) bots in any game, but only if you are "host" (in single-player you become "host" automatically with any color, in multiplayer host is a red player, if no red player in game - is a green player) and only in first three minutes of the game.

I repeat, i can't help with any problems with open-source. I work with him correctly, i don't know, why there can be problems. You ask me just about object file? OK, you can download it here: http://clawbfs.ucoz.ru/3.7engobjects.w3o

Also you can download open-source heroes, for example:

http://clawbfs.ucoz.ru/Tower_Spirit.w3x
http://clawbfs.ucoz.ru/MadHatter.w3x
http://clawbfs.ucoz.ru/Scoundrel.w3x
http://clawbfs.ucoz.ru/Woodpiece.w3x
http://clawbfs.ucoz.ru/Shark_Pirate.w3x

That maps very simple, i think, you CAN open and save them correctly

About other suggestions - you can post it here, maybe i check it and answer on that later.

 

[DeathKing12]

I want the Guy who makes Towers LOl Cause My favorite is eternal slaves he has nothing but make one tower i wich i could make some more for him

 

[Claw]

OK, maybe, i add more towers to him. I remember it. But it's not main now.

 

[DeathKing12]

Here Are My tower Suggestion if you have some time to see it
Hammer Tower with damage of (your own idea)
Glaive Tower
Frost Tower

And For Skills I wich he had an ability to deacrease building time

 

[DeathKing12]

Hay Is there any official website for this cause this would be filled with spam if people keeps asking on about Hero suggestions

 

[Claw]

My site is just "blog" for watching without comments - i don't need very much suggestions now. I now has more ideas, than i can create But if you very want, post it here. I read everything )

 

[fl00ri]

hi
your little aos map is very funny
