Hero Contest #2 - HQ Hero

[baassee]

no need to change really, we all have our own style, as only as it have hotkey showing and not caps all over the shit I think it should be fine.

yeah the only thought original was that it was channeling but now you have to add something

 

[Billy the Cat]

If I could use my own style for tooltips I would do that

as long as it dont look to weird it's fine in my opinion thought I'm a little confused about the melee balance thing, it shouldnt be for tooltips too?

That is exactly the thing...
If balancing is for melee shouldn't the tooltips be for melee too? Actually that would also force me to make a hero with multiple names.

Edit: Thanks tanks!

 

[Bane]

Count me in!

you're able to use any resources publicly available in THW database

Does this meen we can use models off of the hive?

I guess so

Teams are not allowed; the entire hero must be made by a single user. However, you're able to use any resources publicly available in THW database. This excludes spells.

Does this mean we can not submit the spells in the spell section since any help from others is teaming of some sort?

 

[Zpider]

Count me in!

I bet I can create something, it won't be a good hero nor will it win but hey thats not what's important. What is important is that one does not loose faith in the power of Yuri.

You can submit it, but you cannot use the spells that are available at hive or neither not make by you or before the contest date.

 

[QueloR]

I'm giving this a try...

 

[Billy the Cat]

I need another idea :<

 

[Krarnal]

Well as i dont really understand JASS i look forward to the update Some ways to make it easer for me is pretty nice

 

[Slaydon]

I dont have enough time for this contest, unsign me

 

[QueloR]

Now, I guess this doesn't matter, but safety first.
We need 1 ultimate and 1 passive, is it ok if that happens to be the same spell?
That is: A passive Ultimate

# The hero must have 1 passive skill, and 1 ultimate skill. They also must only have one of each.

As far as i understand this, no. You need one ultimate, (no matter if it's passive or not)
And then another passive skill.

 

[Septimus]

lol.. I am joining for fun...

This is the hero I am creating, still have 1 incomplete spells...

Fear him mortals..

 

[M4stah]

We're lucky jury decides 100%. Septimus's MH would simply win the poll. Without people even looking at other entries.

 

[xD.Schurke]

hm why should he? :O... most users I know also look into the submissions

 

[Deuterium]

I don't really get the joke... that's if it is a joke...

 

[Kingz]

Well i agree that 100% judging is far better than polls.
We all know why.
Btw hope this won't last as long as the S&S when it comes to judging

 

[Billy the Cat]

Actually I think that if the ultimate would be a passive he should have 3 useable other skills. I was wondering about this too, but since my ulti isn't a passive...

Progress is going very well

 

[Deuterium]

Yess I was thinking about an Ultimate passive, what about that?

 

[Billy the Cat]

Your hero can have only 1 passive and only 1 ultimate. I think that if your ultimate is a passive you will have to make the other skills active.

That is my idea...

 

[Deuterium]

Basic math, makes sense

 

[Billy the Cat]

But it also says they most have only 1 of each...
Kinda contradicting in this case...

 

[QueloR]

I PM'ed hvo-busterkomo; And he said it was ok to use a passive ulti, as long as the others are normal (Non passive)

 

[Dentothor]

im in.

finally. a chance to use my ultimate fire blast spell

 

[QueloR]

[Xarwin]

I'm joining this contest.
Attempting to create a new ownage hero.

 

[Deuterium]

May I join this contest?

This contest is open for all so just say that you want to join and you're in

 

[baassee]

hahaha sept that was an awsome idea

 

[Billy the Cat]

I am glad this isn't a poll or he would get points for the lulz :O

I am a little bit stuck with a spell, but that won't be for long D:

 

[Krarnal]

Omg! Masterhaosis! XD But i think its a bit overpower. I mean like 9% chance on each attack?

 

[Pharaoh_]

I'm in. Our submission will be posted within this thread with the map, right?

 

[Kingz]

Hmm, should we implement our hero in a melee map?
That would show is it actualy usable and not too imba.
Maybe even online testing would be nice, between contestants, that way we could easily see are the heroes balanced or not.
Just an idea...

 

[Billy the Cat]

999 posts oh no...

Ok now serious
I already used a lot of time trying to create an awesome hero map for my hero and I suck at arranged team games D:

Testing balancing for my hero is going to be very difficult (trust me on this one ^^), since the spells are very abnormal.

 

[Eccho]

...

There's nothing about appearance (unfortunately) so I guess it doesn't matter if the hero's spell has little special effects (complete lack of special effects is unacceptable, jk)
Anyway, good luck to all

I guess it would fit alittle into orginality, no?

Testing balancing for my hero is going to be very difficult (trust me on this one ^^), since the spells are very abnormal.

Well try to compare them to standard spells already. We could say that the ones existing is "fairly" balanced. Just try to find something which is matching and set the effect data of each spell as balanced as possible.


And try to keep this thread on topic

 

[nerovesper]

Holy Haosis! The passive is pretty .... I'm speechless. LOL! xD

 

[Billy the Cat]

And try to keep this thread on topic

I didn't? D:

I was talking about checking balancing inside melee games by the way.
A lot of skills support players in the long run and that makes testing on Battle.Net difficult. I based numbers on other skills.

Does it matter if I preload my spells?

 

[xD.Schurke]

So here another WIP screeni, shows the new Ability + one 'Magical Sphere'

 

[Eccho]

Preloading units and abilities are always a suggestion to do since they affect the game with minor lag spikes the first time they are used.

The offtopic was meant for anyone. We don't want random talk here do we?

That looks alright Schurke. I have no idea what it does now tho

 

[Trillium]

i'm joing. now gotta think of some cool'n'fun hero... think i have an idea...

 

[Billy the Cat]

Am I allowed to let others check my triggers?

 

[M4stah]

Why would you? theres a tool for leak checking availble

 

[Squidle]

Okay...

So is it allowed to download a random hero from the model section and use it here?
Or do you have to make your own model with 3DS Max 5 or something?
^ ^ ^
Same question for icons.

 

[Bane]

What exactly does balanced with melee heroes meen... Does it meen that somone should be able to play a melee hero against your hero and have a fair chance? Seems a bit stupid to me but meh..

Feel free to use any imported material such as a dummy unit model and/or anything found in the resource sections except spells.
Reminder, do not forget to credit the author of all the imported materials

Kind of yeah, thats what we judge in the aspect of balance.
