Campaign Contest #1 - Free theme

[Belgarath]

No, like other guys. Like, humans. With torches. That detect you easier with torches on. Although they'll have 360 torches >_>

 

[Just_Spectating]

but why would he be hunting other people, hes shipwrecked, he should be grateful to see other people that could hospitalize him

 

[AirHead]

I think the idea is that they would give him more reason for hospitalization. Well, my campaign is well on it's way I guess, even though all I've made so far is systems that I plan to use.

Hopefully screenshots soon.

 

[Belgarath]

...not really, when at the end of the first chapter, a guy tries to shoot you...
...and when guys shoot you on sight, and when they carry guns...

 

[Just_Spectating]

...you yell "HEY I NEED HELP, DONT SHOOT, I MEAN YOU NO HARM!"

 

[Belgarath]

and they shoot you. Not feeling too smart are we
Basically they want to kill you.

 

[AirHead]

...not really,

and they shoot you...
...Basically they want to kill you.

I think getting shot is a pretty good reason for hospitalization (or, to be hospitalized, since you seemed not to get it the first time).

Anyway, let's [/Offtopic] and give some WIP's and stuff.

 

[Just_Spectating]

Belg, you should make them like Canibals, and instead of shooting with guns and stuff, they set traps, throw spears, darts, blah blah etc etc, like orcs almost.

 

[Belgarath]

Nah, it's modern day. But natives are a nice idea

 

[Just_Spectating]

just some hostile group of people then huh?

like, terrorists?

 

[Belgarath]

I'm not going to reveal everything... You'll have to play the campaign >.>
What I CAN Say is that it bears a bit of resemblance to Lost's Others.

 

[HyperActive]

I am so pissed right now!
All day I've been working on my campaign, and as I was finishing the last cinematic in the first chapter, a power outage occurred. I haven't saved, and all that work is gone.
I'll be damned if that stops me from finishing this, I'll go make some coffee and resume my work.

 

[Palaslayer]

why tell us that? ^^

frustrated?

 

[HyperActive]

Just felt like telling.
Doesn't matter, I'm continuing my work now.

 

[Avator]

Good luck. Don't Let the Man (or power outage) Get You Down ^^

 

[AirHead]

I've got a relevant joke!

Offtopic joke

Once God got tired of Jesus and Satan always arguing so he said that they will have a contest of who is best at using computers. they did all kinds of work from 3D modeling to making a spread sheet, when suddenly... the power went out. Satan freaked out, he screamed and yelled and said every curse word in Hell. But upon seeing Jesus' calmness Satan asked 'why isn't he mad?', 'Jesus...' God replied '... Jesus saves'.

Well anyway, almost all of the systems I'm using in my campaign are done and I can start work on the real levels soon.

 

[Belgarath]

LOL, airhead. xD

Two "promo shots" of the 2nd chapter. (They're edited)

 

[~Void~]

Damn Belgarath you son of a bitch. You stole my technique and got the 666th reply. Lolz.

 

[Avator]

Damn Belgarath you son of a bitch. You stole my technique and got the 666th reply. Lolz.

@~Void~: Actually, Airhead had the 666th post.
@Belgarath: Correct me if my eyes are sleepy, but all I see is a light source of some sort in a black area. Give me the imports and 5 minutes and I can make that xD

 

[~Void~]

Belgarath got the 666th reply. Hence it saying "666 replies" when his post was the last.

 

[Just_Spectating]

both of you are right, 667 post, but 666 reply

 

[Belgarath]

Uhh. That technique is so old, you know? It's not really yours. At all. In fact, I was trying it out in November... thought it might come in handy.
Avator, only one import.

 

[Avator]

In that case, give me just 3 minutes

 

[Septimus]

41 more days to go, if still do not have any submission. I would have no choice, but to end it considering that nobody finish it

 

[Belgarath]

Seeing as this is practically the only thing I'm working on, I should have it done by then. I might have to recruit a friend for the triggering or some of it :>

 

[~Void~]

Uhh. That technique is so old, you know? It's not really yours. At all. In fact, I was trying it out in November... thought it might come in handy.
Avator, only one import.

I was just kidding. I was the one who pioneered it in terrain art, though :]

 

[Belgarath]

Yeah right, cause this campaign is so to do all with terrain art. It's been done a heap in maps. And you really can't change that.

 

[AirHead]

Ok I know how much people hate this but, instead of pictures or whatever, I made a demo map! haha don't worry it only took like 10 minutes so it wasn't any time that i could have maybe finished a real map.

There are no quests in the demo map, you must simply kill all of the enemies that are capable of attacking.

 

[Gilles]

How is it a demo map? You get to try some systems in the map?

 

[bounty hunter2]

@Belgarath
Nice atmosphere!

 

[AirHead]

I took the first map, removed the quests and added a countdown timer at the beggining. it's just so you can see what the gameplay is like because you can't exactly look at a picture and know how it plays.

 

[Belgarath]

Okay, update: I'm gonna start the campaign anew, and it's a tie-in to Lost. Should do it pretty well if it works as I planned it. It'll be around the end of Season 3 - Season 4 time. With what I have planned, it should work out and still make sense. I'll have to reterrain all of it, but I almost welcome that :>

 

[Avator]

You're going to start your entire campaign over at this point!?

 

[Belgarath]

It's only two levels, anyway, there's a whole month and a bit left :>
Plus I work faster with a set goal.

 

[Palaslayer]

didnt hear a single word from paladon the last week :S

 

[Linaze]

It's only two levels, anyway, there's a whole month and a bit left :>

Rules say minimum of three "levels", right?

 

[Gilles]

Your campaign must have minimum 3 playable chapters

Yes it is a rule.

 

[Mechmap]

I believe he meant he had only done 2 levels on the old campaign.

 

[Septimus]

Need at least 3 playable chapter.. there is still quite a time left for it.

 

[HyperActive]

Been wasting time on loading screen past few days. And after about five screens made in diablo, warcraft and random stiles, I've deleted them all and made this one just now. There are still some spaces I'll will up, and some minor alterations all around, but, more or less, this is it. And honestly, I like it.

DPTF

Yes, the main character is a dreadlord... or so it seems...

 

[Avator]

Very nice screen! ^^
But it's revenge, not revange (even though that's not part of the background image)

 

[HyperActive]

You're wright. I thought I've checked the spelling in first chapter, but guess I've missed some things. I will correct that asap (before I forget).

 

[busterkomo]

I think I might enter this contest. I still have a month left, so pulling off a campaign shouldn't be too hard.

 

[Palaslayer]

belive me, it is

 

[Phoonix]

lol ye it is ppl around here can know it xD

 

[HyperActive]

Some pics from intro and the first chapter. Not much, but hey, maybe now someone else will post their progress .

Clicky

Intro isn't much, as I made it in one day, it explains the story and that's it.
Now I'm on chapter two. Just a bit more and I can move on to chapter three. Then all that remains is the credits map, and I'm done. I may make a submap, if I have enough time.
I'm a bit disappointed cause I wanted to make five playable chapters, but now can only menage three. If should still be fun. And who knows, maybe I manage to make four.


EDIT: Yeah, now i see that the demon interface isn't used in the intro, gonna fix that right up. Stupid small mistakes!
And as for credit: unwirklich for the UI, Dionesiist for the Dreadlord texture and Ogre Butcher model and texture, Critz. for Ogre Butcher animations, KrewLRain for the Spellbreaker texture. But that and more will be shown in the campaign as I've already mentioned.

 

[Mechanical Man]

*sigh* it seems that campaigns that could be finished will be rpgs :/

 

[AirHead]

Woops I almost forgot about this contest! Just because it's 3rd person doesn't mean that mine wont be an RPG.

 

[HyperActive]

*sigh* it seems that campaigns that could be finished will be rpgs :/

Any other kind?
Like my previous campaign, this will include both rpg missions where you can control only your heroes (after all, the story evolves around them), but also melee missions where your mission is to create an army and defeat the opposing one. Just like a Blizzard campaign.

 

[Belgarath]

I knew this was coming and I can say it's pretty much certain - my campaign has failed
I ran dry on ideas after the initial buzz and the triggering was depressing me, usual scenario in my case. Good luck to all, and I hope someone finishes theirs >_>
