Ok, so I just tested it on map 4. The heroes reload fine into that with those skills and items. I will check map 11.

Retried it, still doesn't work.

 

I am sending you the code for your items/spells now. I will look into it. It is interested it loads the orc item, since both of the missions have those orc items ingame (for 04, rex/grom wearing them, and the same for 11).

Edit: Sent

Edit2: I understand why the save issue is occurring. I might need to post all the codes for legendary items for heroes before map 13, since that is when I added all of them, whereas pre-map13 they are all copy pastes, which means their item code is different.

[General] - Changing Item Raw Code

 

Map 11:
The first Gryphon Knight on the sidequest drops a Greater Healing rune, the group after drops a Lesser, they should be switched.
Maybe give Danath increased regeneration while his Storming Flame is active, I've seen him drop from 300 to 6 HP once the extra strength fades without seeing combat.
So Perenolde hired a night elf and high elf?

 

The stronger heal rune is first because the first group is the hardest to beat. The second group is only strong if you don't use cleric's antimagic to prevent the mass stun/armour reduction.

Danath with increased hp regen would become as strong as deathwing. He needs to have a cooldown or he will kill everything. Once you get to the "base building" part of the mission, you will see at lvl 10 with orb of fire, he reachs 6000 hp. Once you hit lvl 14, the berserk spell + storming flame will allow him to become invincible.

Number Warlock is just a dark skinned elf.

 

Map 11: Ugh. I hate timed defense missions, and this one is no exception.

Gray base needs an item shop.
Undead reinforcements spawn every 20 seconds or so. Even this would be tolerable if the other bases' waves could be weakened (for example, by leaving the central building invulnerable and leaving the specialist-spawning buildings killable) so there wouldn't be situations like facing 4 catapults at the same time when you have no fliers and no siege, and giving something to do other than wait for the next wave.
The player's food supply is not located within their base, and their base is not inside the gray one.
Ending cutscene:
* Do no not see -> Do you not see
* existance -> existence
Turalyon's icon is deeply disturbing. Isn't there a less deformed-looking one?

 

Playing a 2p map single player will always be hard

Green's forces are the ones that present the biggest threat on insane. If they wipe out pinks defenses, they will overwhelm grey. Luckily you have 2 OP heroes. Did you get the artifacts btw?
Players food being outside means you need to help defend pink. You also need to strategically allow one of them to die, so the enemy can start attacking grey.
Well its a defense mission, so all you can do is wait for the next wave.
Will fix spelling errors.
That icon is his warcraft 2 icon. Dentarg/Teron use theirs, so i felt the main alliance heroes should use their wc2 icons also.

 

Yes, i got the artifacts. Out of curiosity, loaded their codes in the first mission. The artifacts were replaced by the items in the mission: Door Fragment and Catapult Manual for Kurdran, Blood Key and Mining Pick for Danath, but he'd kept his orb of fire, lost a scroll of regeneration and potion of mana and gained a healing potion.



That is his WC2 icon. The icon that appears at the continue/quit menu (once the final cutscene ends), when you see the icons for every hero on the left side of the screen does not look like that, it looks like a screenshot of his portrait and looks wrong, as do most WC3 models when seen from too close.

 

I am remaking the save system. I know what the issue is. I will give you codes for everything pre-mission 12 before you test a mission that needs them based on what you remember you had.


I did not know that about the icon. But the best thing on hive i could find was this, which also looked bad.

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH IT'S LOOKING AT MEEEEEEEE

Yes. Exactly. Ugh.

Maybe just use the Arthas icon? It's not like it'll be needed for him.

 

How come the 8th map is just booty bay?

 

Would you mind to provide the 8th map? It's been a month and there has been no certainty on the missing map.

If not, are you okay to have this set to Awaiting Update?
It will automatically back to Pending once you get the 8th map ready and will be re-moderated properly.

 

Yea, feel free to set to awaiting update. I think Deepstrasz will wait until I post the first 16 maps anyway.

 

Hey men, sorry just want to ask what is the code for all HORDE hero ? By the way where is map number 8, the one where we enter Sargeras TOMB ?!

 

(I am posting this assuming players reading this have already played the missions and got stuck with bugged items. If you have not played the maps, you can ignore everything in this post).

Ok, so, if you have not saved any items--- you can ignore this, since the previous save system worked fine for saving the hero levels and abilities. If you had any shop items/artifact items while playing maps 1-11, then the codes you have are broken and can result in bugs if you load the wrong items into a map.

From map 1-11 there are 6 playable missions with saving (Hint: map 08 is not included since it is a bonus map): map 3, map 4, map 6, map 10 and map 11.

I will post the codes for these maps with un-chosen hero abilities ( so you can re choose what you picked ), and the artifact items you would have if you beat the optional bosses, not no additional shop items. These are the codes you would get after beating each map (So the codes for map 04, for example, will load what you would get if you had beaten map 04).

(The one exception is map 11--- For that, I also give you an orb of fire, since it is needed for Danath).


Every time I post the codes for maps, it means those maps have been fixed and already updated on the map file for the campaign. I will be removing all the codes from this post after 1 month, so you should have enough time to write them down.

Codes

Update
All maps have been updated. Additionally, I now have posted all the correct save codes in the hidden BB tag above. These codes will be removed in 1 month.

Update2
More than 1 month has passed. Codes removed.

 

Set to Substandard on Author's Request.

@tulee feel free to request for a re-moderation once it's ready

 

Update: Maps 8, 12, 13, 14,and 16 are done, with just music/fixing first boss fight /cleave hammer bug finding to be completed. With the exception of map 15, which I cannot complete for various reasons right now, that constitutes the entire 'Azeorth Side/Part 1 of the campaign. Because of problems with map 8, I will end up releasing all future maps on the latest versions. There are just not enough player slots for what I want to accomplish on each map, and now that I am adding an optional computer slot that either player 2 can use, or if you are playing alone/your friend hates controlling bases you can set it to be controlled by the AI, there are just not enough slots. Since the work arounds I have used are too complicated for me to actually undo, I won't actually be using more than 12 slots for these maps, so it should be playable on versions lower than 1.29, but in the future when I come across a situation where I need more slots, I will just choose to start using the extra 12 slots that the newer versions provide, which will 100% exclude players using lower versions. It has also been too much time wasted each time I keep switching from 1.28, which I have been using to make the maps, and the latest version, which I need in order to test with my friend.

In short- I will be posting all future maps on the latest versions, which might exclude players depending on features I use. I will change the map description soon to reflect this change.


Edit1: I summarize key events from map 15 so map 16 will make sense:
-Rexxar/Grom watch a T.V program
-Tagar and Fenris report Ragnok's twisted behaviour back on the Tomb of Sargeras
-Ragnok explains that a shield generator will protect the Warsong clan as they retreast through the portal, since they will be the last clan to return to Draenor (they will be holding off the humans)
-Rexxar sees Ragnok speaking to a mysterious person

 

... Antonidas has a peasant voice.
I dunno about Kirin Tor Ruler, doesn't he have a more appropriate title? Even Archmage would do.
Revival should be instantaneous.
Undead ogres are too small.
Dragon Overseer (should be Dragonspawn Overseer) has mana but no spells.
Kel'thuzad's current and total health should be in a scoreboard.
Golems:
* Golems should be present as corpses in the hub room.
* Snow Golem needs a model that does, in fact, look to be made of snow.
* Water Golem is on fire.
* If they're fighting undead, the ultimate golem should not be a proto-Abomination.
* Only one type of golem seems to spawn at a time.
* Golems should spawn near Kel'Thuzad as well.
I think assessment should be replaced with test.
Test 4 log shows no examples.

Intro cutscene:
without a doubt -> doubtless
stringest -> stringent
energy the activate -> energy to activate
Camera pans over empty terrain a lot.
Maybe use undead instead of undying (which is more "alive but won't die").

Test 1:
Timestop spell takes too long to be useful, I managed to run Krasus to the boss without needing to use it. Even Antonidas doesn't try to cast it in the end scene. Also, a puzzle based on a random event triggering isn't very good.

Test 2:
... Seriously? After Rexxar murdering a sick orc, we're moving on to killing dwarves while the place is attacked by undead? They couldn't just kill a deer or something and wait in ambush? How is this even a test in the first place?
Wendigos aren't instakilled by the fire spell.

Test 3:
... Boats? The city is besieged by undead and you're fighting evil boats?
Used Antonidas' spell to go to a lower level, which killed both heroes without warning. Lower level should be water.
The unit positioning is completely random, one time it worked while Krasus was off to the side.
Spell range should be longer (should be at least center-lane-to-center-lane); Antonidas keeps moving out of his position because it's too far away for the spell to work with Krasus in front of him. And maybe disable Krasus' attack for this level or give it longer range, he keeps trying to attack the boats.
Boats can be moved with the spell. Including the boss, who somehow ended on the bottom level while Antonidas was on top. I had to bring Krasus back and whosyourdaddy the ship to death because the fire trail didn't kill him the first time. And there really needs to be a way to regenerate health before the boss.
Antonidas' mana regen needs to be much higher, it's entirely possible to run dry moving just him through the area.

Test 4: Puzzle Master:
Camera should snap to the gates once you answer, and the demonstration kick in faster.
1: ... That was a horrible answer and you should be ashamed of yourself. Graaaah.
2: Gates should be closer together, that looks like a sloppy III (\ / I and not \/I).
3: Clever.
4: Good, though it'd be nice to have it fit on a smaller screen/move the camera higher so ou can see the whole thing at once.

Krasus should not have such crappy combat stats once the puzzle part is over.
So what's Antonidas' player supposed to do now?
Give golems a ranged spell or something, because once the spawns are finished there's nothing to do but wait for the boss to inevitably collapse, it might as well go faster.

End cutscene:
Both start moving before the scream is heard (and maybe use a shorter scream).
"realization - dawned on him." -> "realization dawned on him that [...] safe."
Deathwing should not make a mechanical loading sound.
You really need to put narrative text as said by "Narrator", or even no speaker, it breaks immersion to see the author's names.

Plotwise, this one could use a rewrite (even Antonidas recognizes how ridiculous it is).
* Why don't they have the authority to go past the traps?
* The "manipulate energy" thing is a very weak justification at best, especially as it doesn't even show up afterwards.
* The enemies could be replaced with elementals or towers which would work just as well without the weird-ass implications (does Ironforge have a contract with Dalaran where they agree to send some of their own people to be murdered by wizards? Do they send teams of explorers to capture wendigos alive just so they can be killed later? Are murlocs hired to haul ghost ships back to the surface so their tormented souls can be used to test students of magic?).

 

I set this to Pending, but don't expect a full moderation until the remaining chapter is filled in.

 

I don't mind if there is no moderation/review.

Also if anyone is interested, map03 represents an old view of mine to make insane mode extremely challenging. While I have since changed that view, and have made all future maps insane beatable without requiring extreme macro/micro provision, map03 remains with the same as it once was, and I just watched a small section of a 4 part video of 2 guys trying to beat it on insane for over 4 hours until they gave up and chose normal. It really made me smile

Note they disabled music, and many changes have been made since that version (they are playing the first version I released I think or something close to it. Back then cinematic were not skipable, auras appeared on units' heads, etc.).
