Comment:

The amount of terrain height difference at the center bonus mines (west and east) is a bit too high.
Also, maybe you could replace those 2 additional goldmines in the center with merc camps and thus add creep camps to them.
Overall it seems somewhat symmetrical, but why did you add fences between trees at the bottom right? xD​

Since it's not a melee map anymore, maybe you should chance the Map Type to Altered Melee.

 

[UgoUgo]

Changed.

 

[4everDnewbie]

Nice Map XD

 

[G A T E]

Nice one...

 

[sonofjay]

Custom triggers to add custom music to it
A custom neutral creep which is used to guard the entrance of the hill
You can harvest 1.5x longer on trees

Wrong this still stands a melee map with a little changes. I also used custom neutral on one of my melee maps using imported models but I haven't thought it as altered. A music also doesn't make your map altered melee.

If you want to have a altered melee map you should at least alter the tech tree and some other stuffs that is major for a melee map.

Remove that music 1mb of filesize doesn't deserves the dl time.

You do not seem to fully understand my descriptions... Allow me to explain.

This is a melee map.

And then at the end I stated

...causes to become non-melee map?

So from the quotes I look like Im trying to make my map become a melee map AND an altered melee. No, wrong.

This section

What causes this map to become non-melee?

Was actually meant to explain why the icon on the left of the map name becomes the icon of a non-melee map even though I didnt want it to.

Also the first commentor also said "Since it's not a melee map anymore...". This shows that I once put this map as a melee map category but I changed it due to people's opinion.

So to summarize, I actually wanted this to become a melee map but im not entirely sure whether it should be one since custom data are added. But its my bad since I didnt write it in a proper meaning. Anyways, it is categorized as a melee map then?

For the music, I would wait for more opinions, and if the results are not satisfying, I will delete it.

Edit: I forgot to mention that I liked your melee maps, you know, the one with different color terrain? Wish you could make a version that can support more players

 

[4everDnewbie]

But i think the map is nice.

 

[sonofjay]

About the music, most players actually turn off the sound of warcraft 3 and prefer to listen to their own sountrack, it doesn't really need to have sounds for a melee map. Just keep the map type as melee map.

 

[UgoUgo]

This is just a wild guess. You didnt check the map before commenting do you?

 

[sonofjay]

No, since if I already check it out I should have already placed a review about it since its a melee map.

I always drop a review on a melee map if I somehow decided to check it. I'll probably do a review about your map soon.

 

[G A T E]

Actually! sonofjay is a melee map expert. You should know that.

 

[UgoUgo]

You should know that I know sonofjay is a melee map expert. No offense, but you should figure out why I doubted that he really checked the map. His comment says it all.

 

[G A T E]

Of course. He can predict what is in your map and how it looks like.

 

[Orcnet]

You should know that I know sonofjay is a melee map expert. No offense, but you should figure out why I doubted that he really checked the map. His comment says it all.

and this is why all maps require a map description, this is how users interact with the map by first checking out the description before download or playing. but as for sonofjay his mapping expertise can be different who knows he already tested it. So no more argument about this and above all he makes decent reviews

 

[UgoUgo]

The amount of terrain height difference at the center bonus mines (west and east) is a bit too high.

I have reduced it a little. Does it need more?

Also, maybe you could replace those 2 additional goldmines in the center with merc camps and thus add creep camps to them.

I would like to retain the bonus gold mines, if you don't mind. However, creep camp has been added at the center part along another merc camp (lordaeron winter).

Overall it seems somewhat symmetrical, but why did you add fences between trees at the bottom right? xD

From the picture I provided below, assume the normal "G" is a player base, well I hope you get what I mean...

Open

 

[Vengeancekael]

Nono, I mean completely to the bottom right.

 

[deepstrasz]

2,5/5.
This is altered melee. Anyway, the concept is nice but that super unit just kills the fun of advancing.
And... what's with that music playing through the sound channel?
