[Hive's Battlefield] - A community Map

[HailFireer]

I say kick everyone inactive and put people that help on the team.

 

[Amargaard]

Agreed! So, okay then kick me... Well, I have never been part of the team anyways, so ye can't kick me. Anyways, hope this turns out good, and I'm curious to see what becomes the results that you serve's up for us

 

[HailFireer]

Well did you help, like with ideas and such

 

[Xarwin]

That's what I posted in the first place D:.

 

[HailFireer]

And how were we suppose to know that?

[Deolrin]

IMPORTANT!
I am bumping this topic so that everyone who is around can read it.

I AM ASKING FOR A REPLY FROM THOSE WHO ARE STILL WITH ME, HELPING WITH THE PROJECT.

Not responding will lead in a removal of your position in the team.
Thanks for understanding.

Like that? You mean the most upper post on this page? : |

 

[Xarwin]

1 July.

I suppose everyone is free from exams and school stuff.
This means we can fully work on the map.
I'll start working on it again.

I am really in need of GUI-ers & jassers to create hero spells.
No style of the people who just left us.

 

[M0rbid]

I have exams now, but since I'm not on the team for helping with triggers it's okay, isn' it?


@Super-Sheep: Stop your trolling! No one forces you to comment on every project around here with negative comments or trolling!

 

[Amargaard]

This is actually a pretty interresting project, that should be taken seriously. I'm not part of the team, but I'm a fan of it and I'll hope it turns out good... By the way, how long is your progress so far (in %)? :]

 

[Xarwin]

Most important stuff is done.
However, find out how far we stand here: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/hives-battlefield-653/total-map-status-169301/

I could make a few spells for it - I use GUI though I can use basic vJass should the need arise.

surprise another aos map

Why yes, thanks for noticing and we appreciate your enthusiasm for the project.

 

[Xarwin]

It is okay if people create it in GUI since I can convert it to jass pretty fast (well, depends on what kind of spell )

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

Why don't you just convert to vJass ? You know you will have no choice, most spells will require the vJass systems we choosed in order to work without lag.

 

[Deolrin]

Flame_Phoenix, is there no way to make you code spells for HB?

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

I will be free after day 19 of July. After that day I can re-install all my wc3 stuff including JNGP and I guess I can give you guys a hand on the codes. Until that day arrives I have to prepare myself for exams.

 

[Deolrin]

Omg, awesome.
I don't know much about you, but I know you're a great coder, being Anachron's tutor etc, so I really hope you could help HB!
I am really looking forward for release btw.

 

[Xarwin]

Flame_Phoenix, I can't rely on the systems anymore because Anachron quited and TRD didn't kinda made a response.
I'll have to do with the things I have.

And I am sorry for the slow progress, but like all of you might know real life > all.
But I will finish this map, it will be the last thing I'll do for war3! ;P

 

[HailFireer]

Ah, so all of coders left? Great...

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

Flame_Phoenix, I can't rely on the systems anymore because Anachron quited and TRD didn't kinda made a response.

The systems are reliable and are approved, meaning they work. With enough time not only will I be able to use them, I believe I will also be able to teach other members of the team using them as well.
However, some of the ideas are in fact quite complex to code, and we might need to cut them out.

Your project depends entirely on one single system that Anachron didn't finish:
http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...hrons-map-system-giveaway-170110/#post1615860

The Custom Attack system. This complex system was supposed to replace a unit's ranged attack with a projectile from Anachron's system. Without this module done, I am afraid that Anachron's missile engine will NOT be able to intercept and change missiles from ranged attacks.
There must be a way to do this, I don't know any sane way. That's what I fear the worst.

Also, try contacting Viikuna, he is a hell of a coder, he might have an idea we can use!

 

[Anachron]

Well, it isn't that hard actually. Use an spell to cast an attack and upon finishing the spell cast, you will release CustomMissile.

This is how I did it with CustomAttack. (I nearly finished it, you only have to tweak it a bit).

However, I may finish it since it's only some simple steps away from working and you relied on my systems and I don't want this project to be dead because I have to care more about reallife now.

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

What tweaks are you talking about?

 

[Anachron]

Like add an attackeventhandler.

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

That's the core ...

 

[Anachron]

Nope, you can just use AttackEvents by Grim and you are finished.

The core is the feature that you are able to change attacks ingame for unit of types and for a specific unit. (Which is already done)

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

That is outdated ...

 

[Anachron]

Who cares? It still works.
Table, Vector and all the good libraries haven't changed since ages too.

 

[Xarwin]

Hey peeps, I need someone to finalize the start locations! (base locations)
Anyone up for it?

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

I am quite bad with terrain ... sry :S

 

[M0rbid]

I'm busy preparing for exams at the moment, and I wasn't able too fix the world editor lag that made me fail with it in the first place yet.
D:

 

[Orly_YaRly]

i can help you with terrain, preety good at it
IF i can be in this map nah, send me the map so i can improve some of your terrain.

 

[HailFireer]

Great. But delete that first post. Go to EDIT, and check delete this post, should be somewhere above the text field, in advanced edit. In normal there is a delete button where save is.

 

[Orly_YaRly]

so, where is that map? i was hoping someone would PM me it, but nothing. I cant help you without that map you know
Also, when my internet stops lagging, i hope someone will approve my hero idea, which i will post later here

 

[Bobanzanko]

i can help im very good at terain and i dont work for any map so i can help for terain.

 

[dead-man-walking]

Care to show some proof first Bobanzanko? Because most maps that you've submitted in Hive is stolen Maps...

 

[Deolrin]

How about... Everyone who wants to terrain show us some examples of his terrain? So that we all know that you really ARE good.

 

[Orly_YaRly]

So, here you go, a proof. Its village of night elves hidden in the wods. How did the peasans get here? Dunno

 

[Anachron]

Whole area is to flat and you spammend bushes.

 

[Orly_YaRly]

1st. = yes, its forest with river so its flat. There is a village, a grove and a fishermen lodge. HOW can you BUILD a VILLAGE, GROVE and a FISHING LODGE on HILLS?! man, think before speaking, im trying to be realistic a little.

2st. = Bushes are spammed due the trees. I was trying to cover the trees, because it looks wierd when giant tree is just growing from flat (again with the flat) grass. So i tryied to cover it with bushes. And dont forget that i also spammed trees, houses, cattails, flowers, mushrooms, torches, grass, leaves, water....

And BTW, i want to see our next terrainer show us his work.

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

At least he is working Anachron, he is doing something you should...
Still, I agree with Anachron. SC2 is almost out, where are we going to find a good terrainer!?

 

[Orly_YaRly]

so...
...Flame Phoenix....
...you say....
...i am.....
...bad?

 

[M0rbid]

I'm sorry I really can't do anything about it the next weeks My exams are so damn close and I can't risk to fail at them.
If you have time to wait till mid of August. I could finish the base since I assume I'll have a new pc till that day!

 

[Xarwin]

Orly_YaRly would you please stop spamming?
Your attitude just makes me not accept you.

The terrain you provided is sadly enough not enough for ours.
Read the feedback of the previous posts.

However, I can finish the terrain too but that would take my time away for creating spells.

Also, could you please fix your hero submission?
Through the comments your support is appreciated.

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

...Flame Phoenix....
...you say....
...i am.....
...bad?

I am just saying that terrain is not perfect and that it needs to be perfected. I am not saying it sucks. Personally the worst terrain I've ever seen was the terrain for my own project (which I made) and I don't believe anyone can make a terrain so bad like I did.

Don't be offended, just take our constructive criticism and improve yourself and the quality of your work. There is no shame in remaking a work to make it better, I did that a lot of times.

 

[Orly_YaRly]

okay, sorry for spam and acting like 10 year old kid, crying about something that can be approved.
Right now im thinking about working on "example" of the bases. Forest aint my best terrain you know

 

[Xarwin]

Detail work is of essence since that's what I actually need right now.
I did the basics of each base, they already look quite good but still need to be worked out.

 

[Bobanzanko]

ok let me put pictures i will go now make some

 

[Orly_YaRly]

Bobanzanko: Let me?

Xarwin: Wow, i will keep that sentence in my head everytime i will made a terrain.
And i fixed the hero concept.

 

[Bobanzanko]

Omg i was thinking let me find i maked a map long ago and i lost it so im seacrhing it now if i find i will post the picture

image link: http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/6199/12549303131877964701113.png

sry for double post
Use your edit button!

Also, don't simply post such bug images.
I fixed the link for you.

 

[Xarwin]

Sorry to say but that terraining isn't even close to what we have in quality...
