Hive Olympics 2008 - Race Expansion

[Anachron]

My LichKing Theme! =)
(Fastmade)

 

[Eccho]

Not bad at all. I really like the mystical environment

 

[Anachron]

Thanks man, I made it in 5 minutes . (Was bored :S)

 

[Kyrbi0]

Nice. I'd suggest something less... dark (at least for the screenshot), but it's looking pretty tight.

 

[NearbyHermit]

It looks pretty well,for a fast made,but how much did you stood to make it?

 

[Anachron]

It wasn't hard at all, just made a hill, switched camera, added some trees and some good looking effects.

 

[Gausslander]

Trust me, you are in way over your head. jk.

Good job, you're a great replacement.

 

[Anachron]

So Team what do you want for me to build?
I am expert at Feelwood, Ashenvale, wasteland, underground and all lordaeon tilesets. Oh I forgot IceCrown Glacier.

Goodday guys

 

[Steel_Stallion]

Icecrown is my turf, enter and die.

 

[Anachron]

Great, I am always open for an great IceCrown Battle!

 

[Kyrbi0]

Well, I was told to "not restrict your creativity", so I won't say anything that implies that I want to see Sunken Ruins terrain. Nor would I dare post something as demanding as Or Lordaeron (fill-in-the-blank), or Village Fall, anything BUT Barrens.

Nope, wouldn't dream of saying anything like that.

(Honestly, do whatever you want. If you wanna do something creative with "Underground" tileset (which is normally bad) and make a half-Dwarven-Mine map, that's cool too. I dunno; use your imagination!)

 

[Anachron]

Hopefully my imagination will tell me something great..

Damn in this moment I got a new idea. We will see )

 

[Kyrbi0]

Xatoga, wherever you are, I hope you have found some time to model (or are expecting a good amount of free time)... Otherwise we are in the proverbial pile of dog excrement.

 

[Anachron]

I thought you have private contact with him? ( friend )

 

[Upgrade]

Anyone there need a Terrainer ?

 

[Anachron]

It closes in 2 weeks and you try to find a team NOW?

 

[Steel_Stallion]

I havent been hearing from the other teams, where is everyone?

 

[Kyrbi0]

@Anachron:
Sure, I've got him on MSN and "Buddy List'd" him on Wc3C. But none of those really work out if he's never on. :/
(except weekends)

1 more update: The Puppet Master - Undead Hero

this model contains 2 parts: the puppet master and his puppet. The puppet will be a mighty skeleton and both will be connected with some kind of energy chain.
Some background information about the hero: The Puppet Master was an evil Warlock long time ago , but he died somehow^^
But his will was so strong that he connected himself with 1 of his skeletons.
And now this hero has the power of the skeleton, but he wisdom of the Warlock.

the concept:don´t look at it if you don´t want your eyes to hurt :D

the Puppet Master(first part of the hero)

 

[Fulla]

Looking awesome, so far!

 

[Kyrbi0]

I freakin' love you/that.

 

[frostwhisper]

Love it.

 

[Kyrbi0]

Correction: I'll love it if the Skeleton is cooler than the in-game skeleton.

 

[D a w n]

it will be different because it should look like a hero^^

 

[NearbyHermit]

Cool ,the sorts of puppet masters were my faves !

 

[Steel_Stallion]

u sir have hax skilz.

ur rewarard is narutu spel pax congartulatuions!

 

[NearbyHermit]

Hey,I'm still on hire,any team need a terrainer?

 

[Anachron]

The drawing looks better.

Btw, how far does we have a modeler and how do his models look?

 

[Eccho]

It is my task to say. Team DEV is out. The reason is because of me. I have prioritied Hive and wc3 too much these days. To finish this competition was the final thing I was going to do. But since I am in the third and final year now in school, I don't have time for this at the moment. Exams and homework have made be loosing focus on my coding task, while I struggled to make them as efficient as possible but it ended up by remaking them for alternative solutions. I am ofcourse blaiming no one but myself, and feel terrible for letting my team down.

I'll see you around hive. I might be here from time to time...

~Eccho~

 

[NearbyHermit]

Damn,another one fell down!

 

[Hawkwing]

I'd like to have a "progress report" from everyone. If I see significant progress there may be an extension to the deadline. If not there wont be.

 

[donut3.5]

This contest pretty much got fucked from the start. 6 models is way to large a dedication for one contest (or twelve+ spells)
--donut3.5--

 

[skrab]

i made 1 full and 3 only mesh models
so i can't finish all models till the deadline...

 

[Pyritie]

I've started one model.

 

[Eccho]

Py, one model on 4 weeks? you're suppose to do 4 more on 2 weeks D:

 

[Hawkwing]

Then perhaps we can convince Frostwhisper to lower the amount of spells and units.

 

[Eccho]

Hawkwing, if that would be the case, our team possibly wouldnt surrender but now its too late for our part anyways.

 

[frostwhisper]

We've got... 3/4 terrain, one spell, one model in early WIP phase :/

I don't know about lowering the stuff. I'll leave the decision to Hawk, as anything I do would turn out rather biased due to the fact that I'm competing.

 

[Anachron]

We have not really much and work is getting harder, too!

 

[donut3.5]

One race might be a little bit more sane, yes?
--donut3.5--

 

[Anachron]

Maybe you gonna ask all for status and add some time?

 

[Kyrbi0]

Nah, let's keep the requirements as they were... No need to listen to the voice of reason earlier, like, say, in the creation topic!... :/

As of now, Team Teen Girl Squad is:

Kyrbi0 (Coder)	90% done for 1 Unit and 1 Hero (both same faction)
Xatoga (Modeller)	One WIP (not used) model?
Anachron (Terrainer)	One WIP Terrain Screenshot?

In all fairness, we need to meet together soon/more often and *cough* actually decide on our second race!! *cough* collaborate...

 

[Steel_Stallion]

I think the contest deadline should be raised

PLUS, Terrainers must do 2 melee maps that support 4 players

Terrainers have it easy, and when I win I don't want any bullshit about not having worked for it.

 

[Kyrbi0]

!?

Why make it harder? Just lower the amount of work required by the others.

Coding isn't that hard, methinks. Because really, you shouldn't need the mega-systems of triggered projectiles, or black holes, or jump skills. None of that is a simple-type ability you'd find in ladder anyway.

But modellers have it rough; I'd even go so far as to require just 1-2 models from them, and the rest be in-game. You underestimate the number of good, unused in-game models.

 

[Anachron]

Making a terrain takes alot of time. ANd because I work 40 hours each week I don't have that much freetime.

If you think "yes lets take some freetimes of kids" do it but then I am out.

I haven'T started terrain yet because I have alot to do.

Basicly raising the amount of work mean that you have TO MUCH free time.

Sorry but thats it.

 

[Kyrbi0]

Don't quit just yet. Nothing is final.

 

[Anachron]

"Sorry but that it" means that its the truth that he has to much time, not that I will quit.

 

[Kyrbi0]

Ah.
...

Oh wait a second, you are Anachron! Oh! The signature looked familiar, but you changed your Avatar and I wasn't watching the usernames.... Heheh.

So was I relatively correct about terraining progress, then?

 

[Anachron]

Yes, sorry for that, but until 17th october I might have it

 

[Pyritie]

Py, one model on 4 weeks? you're suppose to do 4 more on 2 weeks D:

Been inundated with schoolwork. I got half-term break coming up though.
