Ok we have the map development thread now. I think that you make the main post more attractive. Check out the BB Codes.

 

[Keale]

BB Codes? okay. do you have some awesome screenshots? and the loading screen.

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Loading screen is in the making. Screenshots, we can get from the idea factory thread.
EDIT:
For the loading screen, what font do you want?
EDIT 2:
Image attached. That is the loading screen, still to be improved. Oh, for the loading screen if your friend did it fine.

 

[Keale]

you are making the loading screen? i have a friend that i can comission for that.
for the font, maybe tahoma?

please check the things i wrote there on the main post, especially the story.

aanndd... i think the story will still be discussed in the idea factory thread.

the loading screen is excellent. let's just use that. i am just planning to ask my friend. so it means that he hasn't started working on the screen yet, so let's just use yours

Hope it helps!

 

[Keale]

men, the description was very good. i don't know what i'm going to do without you. and i thought that the prolouge you made will become an interlude instead?

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Oh, I forgot about that. You could just edit it you know. Look for the prologue then change it to interlude.

 

[Keale]

okay. this will be Dan Raginthor right? the sword and shield from the mercenary man will be used too right?

by the way, i planned ria to be somewhat like a love interest or something. but it won't be showed ingame, maybe just hints. ria is Dan's childhood friend. and i am planning to use sylvanas' model for her,

and i think the name necros isn't that suited to the bad guy of our story. umm i'm really sorry but this is what i think.
probably a name that is very fear-giving. like Necromaden, or Necromash or something

aaandd before everything else, let's discuss the stats(primary attribute, int/str/agi per level, skills) for each character.
Dan Raginthor(Job still unknown, probably mercenary?)
str type
skills:

Shun (Blademaster)
agi type
skills:
blink,
Ria Swiftshot (Hunter)
int type
skills:
summon wolf(because she's a hunter right?), ensare(for hunting),

custom skills would be better

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

I can make custom spells, no prob. All Abilities would be in spellbooks and can be casted anytime, no need to be at a certain level but some requires high mana which you dont obtain in that level or maybe it could just be learned. I was planning 8 skills per hero. Heroes should have one element mastered, except for Dan which is selectable. Maybe we could make a seperate map which makes you select the element of dan and maybe other heroes. I have some ideas for their spells:

Shun

Agility type
1. Flare Slash - Shun slices the air and simultaneously ignites it. This makes the area burned. When a unit comes close to this, they have a buff which damages them.
2. Oil Drink - Shun drinks some oil. This makes fire based attack damages higher.
3. Fire Breath - Shun spits out a cone of fire from his belly. If a unit is hit, they are burned.
4. Ignite - Shun burns his sword. When he attacks, there is a x% chance for the enemy to get burned.
All I got for now.

Maybe it goes like this:
Dan Raginthor - Available elements are:
1. Fire
2. Water
3. Wind
4. Earth
5. Holy
6. Dark
And there are elements which are beaten by other ones. Like if your hero is a water type, they beat fire.
I was planning for it to be like this:

Elements and their weaknesses

Element	Weakness	Strong Against[c]
Fire	Water	Wind
Water	Wind	Fire and Earth
Wind	Fire and Earth	Water
Earth	Water	Wind
Holy	Dark	Dark
Dark	Holy	Holy

 

[Keale]

nice system! although i think it will be better if it would just be 4 skills so that it would be much simpler. And Ria's element will be wind right?

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

More spells are better. Then they are in spellbooks. Maybe for each characters elements, except for Dan, are already fixed. Shun = fire, Ria = Wind and the Druid = Earth.
The more spells, the easier you could beat big enemies. Screenshots will come later.

 

[Keale]

umm, the druid is just a temporary character on chapter 1. so he will not appear on other chapters, on other chapters other 'guest heroes' will help the main character but it will always be optional. umm, i think more skills will be confusing?? i don't know but its an rpg style campaign.

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Not! Play some rpg maps and check their spells. Btw, lets talk about project stuff via Visitor message or PM. So we wont make this thread full. Lets only post here for updates.

 

[Keale]

this is the interlude that i finished.

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

I suggest attach it in the main post. Checking.

 

[indomitable1319]

This looks pretty cool.
Can I be a beta tester?

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Well, Kaele and I have only made the Interlude. I was making the 1st map still named Untitled but my world editor suddenly crashed and closed. So all data was lost...

 

[indomitable1319]

That happened to me too! Back on the first mission of The Risen. You just might as well remake it and who knows, you might make a better version this time.

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Yeah, im remaking it and now, it looks a little better, only the units but not the terrain.

 

[Keale]

dude, how's the progress?

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Screenshots attached, not fully done, still a WIP.
Btw, are you accepting indomitable1319 as our beta tester?
@ Keale
I can send you the map, maybe put some creeps, terrain, etc.
Dont use cliff only raise/lower tool, smooth tool and plateau tool.
I also uploaded the Prologue v2 edited.

 

[Keale]

yes. but it is not finished yet so he may have to wait. what chapter are those screenshots?

edit: i checked the prologue, did you remove the dialogue in the fight scene? and did you finish all the memory leak hunting? i'm going to do the second scene now and finalize the first scene

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

I accidentaly removed some. Just fix the Kiljaeden part. Thats the first chapter.
For the memory leaks, the main cinematic trigger hasnt been treated.
EDIT:
Attached Chapter 1. Not yet done. No triggers placed, only terrain.
