Hello

[Abattoir]

I have been instructed to introduce myself, so here I am. =P

I have been modding in WC3 since it came out. I would consider myself an advanced user, though not as advanced as many of you. Despite the ridiculous number of map projects I have started I don't have any finished work to show you. My current project is something I am fully expecting not to finish. It is a full length campaign with two races. It plays more like SC in that it is on a lower scale than wc3 and you can have large armies. Also, no heroes. Story characters are simply powerful units, also like in SC.

I was there during the golden age of wc3 modding, and I must say that I'm so glad to see some other people are still interested in it too. =)

Searching the site using the above link always helps, you can learn a lot that way: just reading and learning is usually the best place to start, especially if one feels overwhelmed.

Likewise, the tutorials can really teach ALL of us a thing or two.

The chat room is cool: lots of people can answer questions there.

• A few other tips that might help too:
  • Always search first! Did I already mention THAT?
  • When creating a new thread, make the title VERY specific: so the site's search engine (and we users) can easily understand just what the thread contains.
  • Post your new threads in the proper forum: read the descriptions of each one so that you know what to post there.
  • If all else fails, just send me a private message! I'll try to do whatever I can to help.
