Black & White Map

[DarkKnight]

I don't know if this is the right place, if not pleace replace it, Here comes my idea for a map, (I have no Idea how but it would look realy cool ^^) Everything in Black and White, it would give a cool touch to it, pleace give your oppinions about this idea.

I don't see anything about the map. Let's say I didn't play Black and White, what is the map about?

 

[DarkKnight]

No no.. it's a map Idea, I just notice I posted on the wrong place, so someone pleace move it to the proper place, and it's not about the game black and white, I am just talking about the collors, all the collors of a map in black and white (and grey and so on) It would give a realy nice touch to a map in my oppinion, realy original. and difficult... I think...

 

[Mini-Me]

You were looking for the newly created 'Idea Factory' forum. I shall move this there.

 

[DarkKnight]

Oh I thought it was just a sticky topic that was closed ^^. so I posted here... So.. who thinks it's a good idea?

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

Never liked Black and White so I don't like the idea

 

[Horn]

Damn, I was hoping for giant cows eating their own excrement.

A map called black and white alrdy exists, it's notrly like it at all, and it wasn't very fun..But it is meant to simulate it.

Way too many skin imports == unplayable map size.

[Pyritie]

Or does he mean the actual map is in black an white, like an old movie?

 

[DarkKnight]

Jup like a movie ^^... And why not just a Black and white (movie like not the game) melee map? wouldn't take that much space would it? it would take a hellish long time though ^^.

 

[Pyritie]

You'd have to reskin everything. It would take a while to do everything, but the overall effect would be... interesting...

Ooo! Maybe it's a map where one side is black and white and the other side is color, and they have to fight and stuff!

 

[DarkKnight]

Hmm.. What about one side is living on black ground and having white units, and the others have white floor and their units are black, and the doodats are... ^^ one collored, like one is just yellow, the other tree is green (light light light green) the other is red ^^ and so on... would be .... very cool ^^

 

[Pyritie]

Nah. I think colored vs black/white would be better. And wherever the buildings are built, then appropriate terrain is made. For example, a colored unit builds a building, the ground around it will go green and brown and stuff.

 

[DarkKnight]

aha... lol ^^

 

[SimonKurciski]

A map in all balck and white would be cool....but almost imposible to do. And yes, there is a map called Black and White, but that map is about two gods fighting to control villages and stuff.

 

[DarkKnight]

Oh well, it's just a map idea, I already didn't thought it was possible, maby with a other mod instead of the map itself, use a mod ^^

 

[ANdROnIQ]

I think it is possible to set a simple color filter on your map. There are some standard filters - fogs, Telescope vicion, dream etc. Even if there is no BlackWhite mask, it can be done. Ask for it in resource forum.
(This way is more simple than redrawing all models/textures/icons in black and white.)
In StarCraft, all buttons and icons are black and yellow, and - doesn't this bring the game something futurous, techno?..

 

[DarkKnight]

Might be, but it was a sugestion for someone else to do, not that I was going to do it.

 

[Pyritie]

Filters do not affect the UI. And filters just apply a pattern or color, not make everything black and white.

 

[DarkKnight]

Uuuhm.. well I don't know anything about filters in WCIII ^^.
