Oh that's a great addition to the packs section. I love your custom races Footman16. Good work

 

[Chen]

Great! I want Tauren or Draenei next.

 

[Footman16]

Draenei is on hold until a full list of fitting building models can be found. Me and sellenisko had a long conversation about his models and I'm excited to wait for his finished products I won't give the full details of the conversation in case for his sake but maybe sometime later this year we'll see the Draenei.

Some other ideas I was playing around with was full Orc tech tree or ancient, with which I had a brilliant concept I would want to implement.

Nice maps ! :3

 

[Zerglol]

Wanted troll race so bad..

 

[MasterTrainer]

I see a battle of the races in the future.

 

[Guldan]

Demon Race? Please!

 

[JCarrill0]

yes, while custom race maps are nice, I find often people lack the balance of their new race to the original races, and unless they make 4 custom races, or simply balance one race.. its not enjoyable since while they new race is cool, and the new race is fresh, it's not balanced and can easily overpower the old races.

I like how footman16 Polishes thier race before releasing them. I do have high hopes to see them all in one map one day

 

[Footman16]

It's funny you mention that, one thing that helps me is that, I work on the original concepts of the Blizzard races and mix it up a little.

Right now what I'm doing is remaking the High Elves (again for the fourth? Fifth time?) as the Hero abilities are really poor, it was my first map after all, and after looking at the rest of my maps I want them all to be of equal quality.

Another thing I am working on right now is totally reworking the four races into four unique races with all custom lore and play styles. I have ideas for two of them and one is very far on in development.

I still play regular melee (for fun) if you need balance tester, let me know.
I would LOVE to do that for ya

Is there any possibility on gnome races since there have been many gnomes models lately.

btw you still doing alternate melee maps or are y making a pause right now ?

 

[Footman16]

I've got a few things I'm working on right now but I'm keeping myself occupied with other things so I don't know if I'll be releasing anything soon.

 

[Fro]

can you do a pandaren races?
please

 

[Footman16]

can you do a pandaren races?
please

I'm not that big a fan of Pandaren, that and there aren't that many good models or ideas for them. Sorry.

 

[stein123]

Do you're still developing more of these maps?

 

[Footman16]

I'm currently working on a Scarlet Crusade map, but my campaign takes precedence so I've still got a hero to finish for it before it's released and some more upgrades.

 

[stein123]

Nice, great maps btw! :')

 

[LordVandon]

NICE WORK
