Diablo III Warcraft Beta v1.19b

Super-Sheep · Aug 3, 2009

I run most of the maps at 40-60 fps, 40 is fine. 30 fps is still playable. But on 20 fps I dont just feel like playing. And on monster spawns it drops below 10 fps. I know I have slow computah..

saphiree · Aug 3, 2009

Mine stay on 60 FPS all the time. But its not really that big a deal. I would do just fine with a 20 fps. Seriously, thats faster than a television. Enough for me man.

Vercas · Aug 3, 2009

I play some (other) maps with 2 or 3 FPS and I don't complain... >.>

saphiree · Aug 3, 2009

LOL XD you must have a real shitty comp

Anyway, lets get back on topic

I played the map again with a friend today, and i got a really big messy bug. My barbarian got caught behind some pathing blockers i think. It was when you are about to kill the two mammoths which stand together guarding a chest. After the battle, i found my barbarian was struck behind the doodads. I couldnt get out, so i had to have my friend kill me, and then hope i revieved on the outside. I did

But still waste of life. I can just say it looks really similar to the Bug with the siege breaker i explained earlier.
I dint take any screenshot cus i was aplying with friend. But hope im a help here anyway

I have reached 0.1 fps in one DBZ map. Then I just had to shut down computer, because nothing happened no matter what I did.

But maybe thats enough off-topic for this time.

CloudMax · Aug 4, 2009

I play on my brothers HUGE HDTV with best resolution when i played this map without lag. It looks awesome when i play on that TV. Its like its thousend times bigger screen but the graphic isnt any worse at all xP
And no lag o.o
So i guess people just have bad comps? :S

Vercas · Aug 4, 2009

It happend to me in a DBZ map too.

saphiree, my computer is decent, powerful but it's old...

LTGH, I play on my HDTV too!

2564x1560 is the resolution I think.

Lol wut

I asked my brother, actually.. thats the exact resolution we have if he didnt remember wrong.

I love to play this map on a HDTV with steel series keyboard and mouse but when i play maps like DotA i go like "wtf... lets use the computer screen insted" becouse it take ages just to look around the screen.

Vercas · Aug 4, 2009

I watch movies on my HDTV, 'cause I can only extend the laptop's desktop on that screen, so applications like Warcraft don't run there.
It's hard to configure that shit.

We're a little bit off-topic.

SlayerII · Aug 4, 2009

Here is my rating:
The number of heros is ok cause you said you wait for blizzard.
The Terrein isnt epic its much more. I NEVER saw a better terrein.
There is much good use of imports.
The inventory system itself rock but its visible that it inst made for this map.(much more slots then i could fill).maybe you remove the unneded slots,but idk maybe you add more items :cute:

Balance is perfect. I could win it at singleplayer like i could win it at multiplayer.It is quite challanging but not to hard.
There much more details which iwant to to describe but i think thats enough first.

The only thing what wasnt could are the spells.There isnt many triggered stuff. Dont take me wrong the spells are still good but compared with the rest there arent good.
The spells of the enemies are ok too but besiede the ncie bosses the enemies normally only had standart attacks.

I still rate 5/5 casue the mapis to awsome.

The inventory system is made for this map and i created it.
It is actually possible to fill the inventory, its not that hard if you pick up everything in your path.
And we will add more stuff for the inventory later (like runes for spells).
I really see no reason in removing some slots.

saphiree · Aug 4, 2009

Uhm, you cant fill it up. Theres no belts, boots, gloves etc.

SlayerII · Aug 4, 2009

yea that is what i ment. it looks like it was made for another map casue of that. Never found a belt.

saphiree · Aug 4, 2009

No. Its because they had problem with the inventory i believe. I think i recall redmarine or LTGH saying that they couldnt get the minor items to work. So expect all the other items to be in version 1.19 i guess

Ask the D3W team

CloudWolf · Aug 4, 2009

Aye

The truth is some of the minor items were bugged, and we didnt know how to fix them at the time

Instead of waiting another another few weeks to get them fixed, we thought we'de release something sooner rather than later

arthas_king · Aug 4, 2009

Meh CloudWolf, at least completely fix the inventory system before you release 1.19

saphiree · Aug 4, 2009

I think it was a clever chioce

Cant wait to see the new inventory in v1.19. Btw. Are you still planning on making save/load codes for the map, and then make it so people can use them in all the maps you are going to make?

It is not decided yet. But as of now, we wont add that.
BTW, Join channel "D3W Clan" if you want to help me create a clan. Currently its just me.. lol

Northrend server!

saphiree · Aug 4, 2009

Ooh :/ I really hope you change your mind ;D Then we will get an even more kickass/ownage/awesome/HOLY game!!
Also, was the next map going to be with lava/magma theme? ^^

I dont want to reveal what the map will contain

Ranger21 · Aug 4, 2009

1) Don't use original blizzard ability for illusions on wizard, i can go trough blockers easy.

2) Well, you changed gameplay a little and changed graphic. Nothing special

A HUGE amount of bug fixes, inventory system, remade areas, rebalance, new icons, etc..

Craka_J · Aug 4, 2009

Do you guys have to go through a phase of fixing/recoding a bunch of shit like Wc3:WoW does after the 1.24 patch?

Fei_Ku · Aug 4, 2009

when barbarian attacks he gains mana,
when he stops attacking, he loses mana
but when he attacking doesn't lose mana :0
how did you do that?

As far as i know, we survived the 1.24 drama.
But we still need to do fixing/recoding becouse CloudWolf who isnt really a triggerer have made some triggering mistakes. And he made a huge amount of incorrect item descriptions aswell. We didnt notice how unstable the map really was until we released it, and i was on vacation when it was released so i couldent do anything.

VampireofBlood · Aug 4, 2009

in my opinion a save/load system is a bunch of crap for this map.
If you are at level 21 at the end of the map and you could load your hero again to play the map from the start and you are level 21 it would be way to easy.

A Save/Load system would be great for a Huge Rpg Map pf D3, where the basis is about to get the best items over time and the best skills(skilltree^^)

We will make more maps, they want it to be possible to transfer the heros through the maps. Not playing the same hero over and over on the same map.

VampireofBlood · Aug 5, 2009

hmm.
If you are able to pick your hero on all your maps, then you dont need a save/load system for that, because you still can choose another one!

lexm1 · Aug 5, 2009

Well, if you make it so you can load heroes make a difficulty system. Like the one in D2 (Normal, Nightmare, Hell)

.

Fun map =D. Camera messes up a little though (After i died my camera got stuck in the floor.)

Verify110 · Aug 5, 2009

Am I the only one who after I download it and it brings up WCIII WE it crashes because it says theres not enough space?
Ive only downloaded one other map called TheUltimateTerrainingMap

You can not open this map in world editor becouse the map is optimised and that makes it like as if it was protected.
We started to optimise the map in 1.18 so its a new feature we did not have before. We decided that people have to use 1.17 from now on if they want to make a mod.

Remember they are still in beta. That means they also keep adding new things to the map, which clealy also mean new bugs. I mean, if they had waited with releasing until they had fixed all bugs, we could have waited a month more for 1.18 -_-

Thats not what he is talking about

The new patch destroyed/removed/replaced some triggers so it has to be remade, but we are lucky that didnt use anything that was removed.

But Craka_J did use those triggers in the wc3:WoW project and now its a pain in the ass for fix it.

So he simply asked if we got the same problem as him.

I think its only jass thats being changed. Gui should be the same

My spells are in jass atleast... But don't think i'll get any problems, just need to fix my version of Newgen :/

Reaper2008 · Aug 5, 2009

Only H2I bugs.

PS: Nice to see 1.18 out. Keep 'em coming.

saphiree · Aug 5, 2009

Btw The Silent. When do you believe the new spells will be out?

SlayerII · Aug 5, 2009

Hey i have a little q

Do you also implent the damage types from D2? i mean the fire ice poison lighning types where had to get ressis to survive. This would make the whole map feel more like diablo. In addition it shouldn't be to hard to make it with the new hashtables.

I think that its has changed very much if you know whats changed.

________________

Yeah, like the title say, i will try to get the clan up and running now, it was months ago i tried it last time but now i decided to try again since i really want that clan, and this will be the official clan for the map aswell.

So leave comments and we might get a time to start everything up.
As everyone know we need 10 people in total.

It is in channel "D3W Clan" in northrend server.

ShadowhunterX · Aug 5, 2009

I love the inventory system. Hell this map is going to be THE shit for awhile once the final version comes out

DoOs_101 · Aug 5, 2009

Is this compatible with 1.24?

saphiree · Aug 5, 2009

EVERYBODY!!! I KNOW U HAVE THIS THREAD SUBSCRIBED! JOIN CHANNEL "D3W CLAN" NOTHREND. Thanks XD We need one more! :O

SlayerII · Aug 5, 2009

read they said it above :razz:

saphiree · Aug 5, 2009

Woops. But now us aw again XD
Get in there

Cogzwell · Aug 5, 2009

Never since Dota have i had such a fun original experience with a mod, the game was pretty bugged up and crummy at first but you've really made it into something great but with 1.18 i'd like to point out...

1. Increase the Skeleton King's health
2. The Siegebeast will often go back into his hole
3. The inventory screen's corners flash
4. The Witch doctor now has an empty ability space, you could use this for dispatch now
5. To use globes you need to have an inventory space open
6. Shields don't work as you'd probally hope, atleast while playing the WD and Wizard i had to use it as main weapon
7. Lampreys do a pretty unfair amount of damage.
8. The tooltip for spectral blades seems odd, it's wording is as it's a toggle ability, i think it's taken from searing arrows
9. Could you please spectral blades back to being an arc dmg plx?
10. Shadow Creature has no attack noise
11. Many items lean half-way through the world

ShadowhunterX · Aug 5, 2009

I found a bug. The tooltip for learning spectral blades is incorrect. It says adds fire to the Priestess' attack when it isnt supposed to display that.

TFT Maniac · Aug 6, 2009

Nice map, mon. Can't wait to see the next version. As said, this project is becoming much more Professional :grin:

. Though I can't wait to see D3 release. Keep up the good work.

Eccho · Aug 7, 2009

If no one has said it before I think I know 2 reasons of why the game crashes now.

1) the map uses gamecaches right? Blizzards BJ functions for gamecaches are broken in the new patch, thus may screw that up. So that is a suffering GUI part

2) the map is protected. As of the new patch news thread Poot provides a link of why you should avoid vexorians map optimiser at the moment. http://www.wc3c.net/showpost.php?p=1097351&postcount=92

Further more, bnet now supports 8mb maps, which is kind of the only positive right now considering all the newly discovered bugs.
