iXeddin, i registered just to say thanks for making this map its great! My friends and i play the survival (classic?) and really its a lot of fun. Keen to see the standalone, if you need beta testers as well ill definitely help and im sure i can rope in a few others. AND thanks for being so active! Im sure your standalone will do well with your attitude!

While im here
I think -endround should be person specific for normal rounds and for duels/special events should be only the people in that specific event. It would allow some strategy and help in edge cases where the command fails. Had it yesterday 3 of us left of 6 (3 quit the game after they died) and typing endround just added up so it was eventually like 8/3 or something but didnt end the round.
If people are uneven or people died sometimes u get put into a duel alone with only endround to get out, but sometimes that fails and that person has to quit.

Also if youre actually still working on this one, it might be cool to add in a button somewhere to reset all units behaviours, as really late game its a bit difficult to reset behaviours for each type specially if you have more than 12 because of WC selection.

Any tips for demons??? I really get destroyed with them.

1. I'll fix -endround at next version and add this button.
2. You want Video Tutorial?

Looking forward for your reply...

Thanks for the reply!

1. AWESOME!
2. Sure if you have one around, otherwise hints would be enough

Hello again,

It seems like I can't play the latest two versions of this map with the latest wc3-tft Patch.
Anyone else encountered that problem? And is there a fix for that?

Hello!

1. How its looks like? (map opens and you've got fatal error after loading screen or just can't create it in Lan/Battlenet).
2. Is it 1.30.2 PTR versions?

Have nice day!)

 

[Cryze666]

i do like this kind of maps, i will test it right now but before i do i already want to ask you one thing: could you share this amazing yogg saron model with me?

 

[Vsdgkk]

Hey iXeddin,
I tried out that advice for demons, it worked out quite well got to Sargeras with some others and killed him, so thanks .

In the latest version i cant seem to build Malfurion for the Nightelves team no matter what i do. He has a blank requirement.

Ello i really enjoy playing your map for that i want to ask : 1. I can only play Holy war 1.78 on WC3 1.26a right ? What version do i need to play aniversary 1.09b. Cuz when i download it and try to play it it wont eaven load the lobby on lan and in singleplayer not eaven the team settings !
2. Warcraft reforged will be coming. Are you going to make a map for this version too ?

 

[Vsdgkk]

Ive been playing the latest versions of this on 1.30.1 versions of Wc3, youll need to get used to the supposedly fixed res though.

Hello!

1. You need 1.30 or or newer.
2. I'll update Holy war for Warcraft Reforged(change some models and optimize triggers).
Hello!

P.S.: Also, at 1.30, you can checkout new map - Ethereal Fortress.

Have a nice day!)

The default chat is still to "allies". Maybe should change to to "everyone".

The azeroth race has been broken for all these years, will it ever receive a nerf? Portal cannon is ridiculous.

 

[SlumberTurtle]

Hi, I noticed that the anniversary remastered version is different from the anniversary version:

The level 25 boss Castle is different in these 2 versions:
1. in anniversary version , the boss will target melee units first;
2. in anniversary remastered version, the boss will target ranged units first;

That's right!)

Remastered version have some additional features just because no one want to play it (108mb - takes long time to download via Battlenet). You can consider this as my bait for players)

Have nice day!

Thank you for asking!

I don't think so. This race was designed for beginners and have no advantage(compare to all other races) in the middle-late game.

If you need confirmation of my words, It would be my pleasure to prove it in game.

Looking forward to your reply...

I am making videos about playing solo this map with 12 lives (medium) for each race, with the version Anniversary Remastered, to help maybe new players.

It should help players kill level 1-35 waves (kill Yogg Saron, but not Sargeras) with 12 starting lives. I first upload this 3 races and will upload more.

Note:
1.this is solo play, much harder than multiplayer, because of the lack of events and duels. You essentially just lose lives. And the strategy may be different.
2.level 25 boss in this version AnniversaryRemastered version is much harder than Anniversary version, because here the boss prioritizes your ranged units first.

Naga (4 lives remaining)

Nerubian (2 lives remaining)

Night Elves (2 lives remaining)

Dwarf (2 lives remaming)
bugs:
1. cannot click Mountain King;
2. Muradin's armor doesn't increase by upgrading armor;

Troll (1 life remaining)

Demon (2 lives remanining)

Human ( 3 lives remaining)

Orc (4 lives remaining)

Undead (3 lives remaining)

Defenders of Azeroth (2 lives remaining)

Blood Elf (2 lives remaining)
Bugs:
When I build Priest in the AnniversaryRemastered version, the game will crash. The video is made in Anniversary version

Alliance mode (4 lives remaining)

Hello iXeddin your map made me make an account! Holy Wars if my favorite custom game mode and I was curious are there any plans to update it in reforged? Namely more races, units, etc or just purely model updates? Maybe other ideas in mind? Maybe a new Holy Wars from the ground up? Just curious what your plans are!

Also a bug I have had for remastered is Ysera and Malygos are invisible until they change into dragons then once their dragon form runs out then turn invisible again.

I don't know right now what to say about Reforged(have no time for editor), but I will fix Malygos and Ysera at this Friday.

I'll be happy to write you personally when I finish my current work and tink about it.

So, Have nice day and stay updated!)

 

[ZerotheLightBringer]

At least some ideas for ya, IF you did wish to add more to Holy War. For races I thin Pandaren, Draenei, and maybe Worgen too as I know there are maps and models and units of those races from other creators out there . Of course I know that is work and what not but I understand you are busy ^_^ just excited and love this game mode!

Some of us are still hosting and playing Anniversary 1.09e but when there are 5 or 6 players and each has army over 100 with very high value we all desync, happens between round 55 - 60 usually.
I thought it was on my end first as I have a pretty ancient rig by modern standards but another player told me he has GTX 1080 and still gets tons of lag and ultimately desync.
This post is kinda pointless since I assume there is no way to prevent this as the game is unable to process this many units at once on such a small map, unlike say Azeroth Wars so it's probably inevitable but just wanted to confirm it with you anyway.

I think about it, but have not so much time at this moment to do something(because I'll need to change 70-80 triggers). However, Holy War not so similar to Azeroth Wars. In Holy War every unit have its own AI and if you have large amounts of wizzards or units with 2-3 active spells...

Stay updated and have nice day!

Today I played latest version RE 1.02c and there is a major bug with all units dying at random times especially if a player leaves in the middle of a level, lost 2 lives like this and another 3 at the end.
Take a look at the 2 screenshots below.
Purple got a control of this Eluna hero and only she was able to attack Demergalos while the remainder of our army stood in the back, after a couple of minutes me and purple lost the rest of our lives and yellow won the game lol.

I can provide a replay too if necessary.

Nice to see that someone can reach Demergalos!)
Demergalos cause 120 damage per second all units in 1200 range and can destroy half of your army with one shoot, so you no need to fight him directly with your army.
Other players need to defend Elunas and Sargeras back, because of Demergalos portals with Void Creatures(He will create portals at some points of battle). Also, you must defend Well of Eternity if you want to heal Sargeras or Eluna.
Thanks a lot for your posts, have nice day!
P.S.: At the final fight Eluna and Good Sargeras(yep, Eluna can change him) can converse Elves,Defenders, Humans or Dwarfs into constellation(Chaos damage and great health).

 

[3nemy_]

That's all nice, however Eluna didn't get to kill Demergalos since the game bugged and as I mentioned me and purple lost our lives and yellow won the game all of a sudden.

Alliance mode reroll timer suggestion:
When playing Insane mode with 6 lives, many players get bad starting towers, so I suggest, instead of every 10 min, the reroll timer could be changed to:
at 0min, 1 min, 4min, 9min, 16 min, 25 min, 36 min, 49 min, 64 min, 81 min.

Also, in Anniversary version, in Alliance mode, the random builder's 3rd tower (tower E) is always missing. Is this intended or a bug?

Yes. All of E units are missing in the latest Anniversary version.

In last Anniversary version Vol'Jin spell Hex ward doesn't work. (Not on creeps, not on player units)

In the Last Remastered Version 1.1a 31.05.19(108Mb)
Playing Warcraft 3 Patch 1.31, the game sometimes crash and whenever it crash, the whole room crash. And sometimes the map doesn't crash at all. I think it because of the patch 1.31 since the map didn't crash in patch 1.30 so can you take a look into that, many thanks.

When playing with 3 players during the Zombie Village event there is a large chance that it bugs out taking a life from one or both of the players, even if you succeed. Often times it gets stuck requiring use of the -endround command. Map version 1.21b

Nice to see an update for this! Def gonna give it a go. What version is considered stable for all custom maps now? 1.28b? Or has it moved up to 1.31?

 

[polo2005]

1.11 and 1.23
if one team dies during the zombie event, the opposite team wont engage that side forcing the players to endround or the surviving player to posses a unit for 2 mana and kite the monsters to your side.

still randomly crashes to desktop? happens pretty much 1 out of 4 times with full house.

 

[Mariuse]

Hey! Love the map, but Demon is crashing the game. When you upgrade from Fury to Succubus the game crashes for everyone. It has happened several times now, always in the first fight after upgrade. I tried testing it at level 1 with cheat codes to get gold, but it didn't happen. Always happens around round 20-40

I'll fix it at next version(need to wait a bit until Blizard releases a stable patch to work with).

[zsc2tr]

just a few things for reference
1 Boss's aoe damage is a little too much,especially the sea giant's.If i want to try ranged units or mages build,it is too difficult.I mean even if i crush all the levels before,i can fail 10 times more in this sea giant level.Maybe you can revise some data and numbers.Ranged units are not of much use except for dealing with the flying creeps.They are just too vulnerable.
2 Many expensive units and heroes are not cost-effective,they are just tanks.
3 AI doesn't function when reach the last but two level.
4 low fps in late game

 

[xqsmog]

Hallo, love the map but i have an Older Version... anybody know which one is the Last working Version for Patch 1.27a and where can i Download it?

I am proud of my friend, who created this cool map! I was very happy to participate in creation of this awesomness

Hi I know its been a long time

But we've played the game recently and I remembered there are a few bugs still.

When you go Overlords the kobold race doesnt have any building to upgrade in like the other two races. So you're basically stuck with 10 food which is unplayable.

Also for some players the allign to grid feature doesn't work properly and just moves all your units to the right or left. I think it only works right for the red player.

I dont know whether you're still here, I assume you don't have enought time for WC3 or do you work on another project?

3 and 4 - Have some improwements in 1.31.1a
