Played the map and It's fantastic.

 

[Tleno]

Ahem, no description, map seems to be stolen and I'm sure it is stolen.

 

[Gen_Barnaky]

It is not stolen. Just check diplomunion forum. It is official continuation of Daow.

 

[Tleno]

Still you have to immprove your description or else it will get rejected. Yes, no description is enough to get rejected.

 

[dexm]

I agree with you tleno about the description but still the map is nice.

 

[-Kobas-]

Please fix type and category!

Original map has been created by Luka_Blight and Clan TBC you must show us any kind of permission to continue working on his map!

 

[Eldubs]

Addinng, the link to the forum would be usefull, and yes description or rejected. Seriously.

 

[light bolt30]

No one will be bothered to read a wall of text. Please try to keep it in paragraphs, tables, or hidden tags along with the use of some colours ( Don't over do it ) about the game play, brief background of the map, any changelogs, any credits, heroes, items, screenshots, etc. Here's a list of BB Codes to help you.

 

[dead-man-walking]

To save you guys from searching the heck out of Diplo, here's the section on the forum itself. Now spare the guy some slack.

DAoW is an awesome map. Glad that someone finally dare to pick up the baton. Seriously though, improve the description. Here's a guide from our own moderator.

 

[Tleno]

You should liike also add credits to all people who's resources (models skins and stuff) you used, that's a must, the possibly a more detailed description of gameplay to people who never played any maps like this, screenshots and finally changelog for updates.

 

[Perk]

Luka gave the permission for people to edit the map in his last post on the DAoW-section in Diplomunion:

"Anyone wanting to continue the map or make their own is free to, however I'm not providing any unprotected copies..."
http://diplomunion.com/showthread.php?4897-Daow-August-7th-2007-November-7th-2009

Hope this solves that issue.

 

[Gen_Barnaky]

Thanks for advices. I hope it looks better now.

There are around 2000 units placed on map at same time, am I right?
I needed more than 60 sec to load map (simple melee map within 6 sec)...

You should use passive icons for passive skills not BTN ones!
Also Races have forces all over map, it's really hard to play this, if you play with night elves, for example, you are alone (some alliances have 3 players) so you control like 3 bases or more and around 50 units from start!

Terrain is well ok, you just can improve it more you use above huge map size already, adding doodads you risk to increase lag!

Errors:
If I scroll camera I won't be able to put it back!

Bad:
You missed to give credits to creators of models and other resources you use, for example that scarlet warrior (use Templar model) and so on!

Is this map really hosted and played on Bnet, Garena... ?

 

[Wolfremio90]

Do you plan on expanding into Cataclysm lore? Like, val'kyrs for the forsaken or or replacing the corrupted scarlets with the risen?

Also I want to make a suggestion, change the dwarf musketeer in the Scarlets for a human javelineer/archer or something.

 

[Gen_Barnaky]

Daow is famous strategy map, hosted on Bnet by few bots. You should know about it.
Camera commands: -mid, -far
This is they way how Daow has been created. Gameplaye makes it special and it won't change.
Only one model has been added by me and I don't know rest of model creators, anyway you can find credits in-game description.

Wolfremio90, Put all your ideas/suggestion here -> www.dipolomunion.com

 

[dead-man-walking]

On BNet, it probably is. On Garena, not really. Most people there are too impatient for DAoW.

 

[-Kobas-]

As soon as you give credits you won't break any rule and map quality, if nothing else, will be above acceptable, so I can approve it as well!

 

[Miss_Foxy]

Maybe show a quote from Luka to continue, I'm a really close friend of his and well, it'd be bad if there wasn't proof although I know you're not lying.

 

[WTF]

the map its great but i think you should change that rifleman of the scarlets for an archer or spearman and you should open the gates to silviermoon when silvanas go to quel thalas to kill aldaron and i dont see alot of changes since the last version its only changed a litle bit the terrain in some parts of the map like Shatrat and miss dont worry i think they put quote of luka giving permision to anyone to continue the map in the first thread

 

[tsubassa]

i dun feel like any changing in the map apart from the old version,beside some little part u edit.
if u can add more stuff into it,e.g storyline , model , n other stuff...

 

[Gen_Barnaky]

Version 2.2 has been released but im too lazy to upload it on hiveworkshop. Many changes for example: QWER hotkey system for heroes and units, has been added. You can get the map from www.diplomunion.com -> Daow section -> Daow Download/Changelog Thread

 

[tsubassa]

http://www.epicwar.com/maps/159917/ <<< link to daow 2.2 ,
i checked out the new ver, nice job for balancing the races.
i love everypart of tis game except the part, nubs player oni noe 1 thing SPAMING ,they just keep spam unit just for winning...... ><

 

[CloudWolf]

Great to see that DaoW lives on!

You guys totally need a tailored preview pic Want me to whip one up for you?

 

[Mgeterno11]

This is an excellent map! It is my favourite map. You must have been working with it for a long time. I rate this map 5/5.

 

[dead-man-walking]

Question: Does Mograine (Scarlet one) becomes unrevivable only when he dies wielding Ashbringer?

 

[Malcous]

Pls remove that ugly deathguard model pls...

 

[Ironside]

He added the credit list. So it's good enough for approved now.

[blademica]

[MR.Tricky]

Downloading....

 

[The General]

the terrain is awsome can i have a version that has nothing but terrain and Doodads?

 

[Hardtime]

How do I kill Dagran Thaurissan??? I cant find him anywhere.

 

[Tristan_kyle_2000]

In the description of Eye of Sargeras,it is said that c'thun,ghost of Guldan and Ragnaros have shards but Ragnaros have weapons drop when he is killed unlike guldan and c'thun(they drop eye of sargeras shard thingy)

 

[Thundershot]

Great Map. Downloaded it, tested it, it's great.

 

[dragonic]

nice game

 

[Hardtime]

May I have permission to re-use this Map for my project?

 

[Hardtechno]

This map is AWESOME. No description needed u know. everyone knows what's this map is all about

 

[alex976]

I have a question, it may sound stupid but, how do you play the blood elves from silvermoon ? I know that teal player is kael'thas and blood elves from outland, but in the quest description, there is a part for the elves of silvermoon (redemption, or something like that), and I can't figure out how to play them :S

You cannot play them, because this quest menu is for an older version. Go to Epicwar.com, search Dark Ages of Warcraft 1.8, and in this version you can play the Silvermoon elves.

 

[alex976]

Okay ^^Thank you for helping me out !

 

[Diamondkaching]

Hey how do I summon Hakkar?

 

[theorcofdead]

I just love to do this even in a 1v1, just would like more events but thats just me... maybe alot of really small events.

 

[hunner]

where is maievs prison the game mentions it but I cannot find it

 

[StoPCampinGn00b]

Top 10 most played online for sure. Tied with Azeroth Wars for 7 maybe. Idk.

Terrain: 10/10
Gameplay: 8/10
Balance: 7/10
Environment: 10/10
Presentation: 8/10
Mistakes/Creeps: 8/10

I still gotta give this 5 stars. Lag is a problem. And balance isn't horrible, just many things counter many things way too much. Please note that I am judging this by the newest version that was updated very recently. Lots of changes. Aesthetics look beautiful, game is more balanced, and there is still ofcourse glorious battles!

That's why I hope a single player campaign is made instead

 

[StoPCampinGn00b]

I don't understand, you want a single player based on this kind of map? This map is what vanilla WoW would be if it wasn't an MMORPG.
