@JesusHipster opening warcraft 3 again? I call this a lie!

Joke's aside, I'm really eager to see what you're coming up with.

 

[DD_legionTN]

Just to inform that, both of me and @Stefan.K will be out from the contest. Stefan.K is busy with his real life, and I don't think I could get a team for the contest, so good luck to all participants!

Hm.. @Paillan @BLazeKraze would you want to join DD_legionTN's team?

Good to see WIPs. : )

 

[PROXY]

Btw. we're team 'Zul'Aman was an Inside Job'. (Sorry @Kyrbi0 couldn't resist )

 

[Paillan]

Hm.. @Paillan @BLazeKraze would you want to join DD_legionTN's team?

Good to see WIPs. : )

Sure why not.

 

[RED BARON]

We also still need 2 icon guys, and 1 model guy to fill the teams!

As mentioned I am willing to help out, be it icons, models or whatever (preferably the first, as its been a long while since I last did spell work).

In that regard a question about spells: Its models made for the spells allowed? Or do we only count one model made for the character?

 

[IcemanBo]

You can look at the teams, and decide where you want to join. : )

If some model needs to be used for the spell, then it might be used. But the model reviewer will only review the technical aspects for the hero/unit model.
If model is used for the spell, then this will be probably judged at "visuals" for the spell/coding part -- I think it's like using imports for creating the spell.

There seems to be only one option at the moment, but the mention of 2 icons and 1 models, gave me the impression that there was more than I was aware of. So I just left it open, as I have little to no specific preferences.

Okay - sounds fair.

Sorry so what does this mean?

 

[RED BARON]

Sorry so what does this mean?

On the first page, I only see (under interested) one person who wants spell, and one that wants icons, leaving just the model one missing. Perhaps I am misunderstanding something.

 

[IcemanBo]

Scourge and Sentinel team is currently waiting for a member! One for modeler, and one for icon artist. If someone is intersted he can just directly post which team he wants to join. The listed members below are potential candidates, but which did not join a team, yet. It was meant for people, so they could come easier in contact with eath other.

 

[Chaosy]

Technically my second wip, I got another one posted in a conversation ;P

The spell's core is done, I will probably only tweak it.
Unless I get another idea.

Nice, a first spell WIP. By the way, full codes is not even needed/wanted to show. Just little bit, with some explanatory words would be cooler, to get your concept's idea. : )

Ah, well, for some reason I guess I thought empty was a user name haha. Anyway, as I just got a work related project, I am going to go for the icon need more than model (That would be sentinal - if DD_Legion doesn't drop it as he wrote) & assuming they want me on the team of course

 

[IcemanBo]

Nice. @DD_legionTN you got your team. ;D

Does not really matter ;P

 

[Paillan]

@IcemanBo
Team Sentinel requests a name change to "Best tem 10/10"

 

[DD_legionTN]

I actually didn't expect I could get a team

The final entry must be posted before the deadline in this thread using a demo/test map. The post should be a little presentation of the hero, and must link to all submitted components of the hero (link to Model, Icons, Spell in the resource section).

Since all of the components required to be uploaded into respective sections (if i understand it correctly), so how about a spell which uses wurst? How wurst code uploaded to the final entry/spell section?

 

[IcemanBo]

Hm, it would fit probably best here at the moment: Wurst Resources - we have no real seperation for Wurst right now.

 

[DD_legionTN]

If so, how about the map? Since using VS, map wouldn't have code in it, how people gonna be able to test it?

 

[IcemanBo]

@Cokemonkey11 would need to judge the uncompiled code for sure. But map will be testabe anyways, or what do you mean?

 

[Cokemonkey11]

I need to see uncompiled code for all wurst/vjas/zinc, yes.

I think I just need

* compiled, playable map
* if it's wurst, also need code:
- access to a git repo ideally
- archive of project (zip/tar/7z) also okay

Since Wurst Resources is a closed thread and this is a spell contest, I suggest posting the spell to Spell Submissions. I'll make sure with @Ralle that's okay.

 

[DD_legionTN]

Well I've already got the answer. Maybe would just zip up the wurst project. Compiled map uses wurst code wouldn't have the source code as I see, but testable.

 

[Neruvatar]

Love this! Would really look forward into the results of amazing models!

 

[RED BARON]

Love this! Would really look forward into the results of amazing models!

Hopefully also the rest of it (spells and icons )

 

[Misha]

PFF.. here's a WIP in text form o3o I have made the special spell slam animation, added an 'attack ranged' and have tweaked a lot of other animations, including death, dissipate, a bit of stand anims, deleted one too.. i need to tweak the spell anim, and the two main attack anims. And the 'stand ready' needs to be tweaked as well. then i can.. well iunno.. probably finish up the model, post it as a working wip here, and maybe start doing a stand victory animation, just for my own amusement

Sounds interesting. Though a picture would be appreciated.

Im a modeler... need a spellweaver and an iconmaker...

Contest Note

The team building has gone longer than expected. We underestimated the process, so it was partially also our fault. But as consequence there's a new deadline, you get 12 more days, which is maybe important especially for new teams.

New deadline: 22th December 2017 GMT (day is included).

@Darkfang @MyPad @kangyun you are a team!

 

[Kyrbi0]

I have arrived.

I have avoided posting for so long because I wanted to catch up & respond to a lot of people & ask questions about a lot of important things... But I've got to post a WIP, & need to finally subscribe to this thread, lol.

SO HERE IT IS: Team "Zul'Aman Was An Inside Job"s "Coding" WIP & first official Hero announcement:

@Deolrin the (Forest) Troll Pariah!!
(Just wanna say, Deolrin, we're excited to honor you with this hero. You were on the short-list of people we wanted to work on, as a team. Don't read too much into the hero name/spell-set, though (more on that later))

Model is still being made of course, so you get to see NOTHING really interesting... Except... What's that, are those four abilities? Which one could be our submission? Ooooooh, spooky unknowns... Ponder & wonder my friends!

More to come.

 

[kangyun]

Thx

 

[Misha]

@RED BARON it will come soon i think o3o i've added a portrait to my main model. although, with how incompatible the skeletons were ( lich and sorceress) she kiinda turned into an odd thing with tho heads, one of which is in a rather undignified position xD but, that's alright. the portrait anims are the only anims where the new head replaces the old in its proper place x3

@Kyrbi0 tas'dingo.. :3

That is just something I want to see even more The curiosity is getting the better of me.

On a scale of 1 to "Copy the entire head with the crown and paste it down", how lazy are you?

Jokes aside, it looks really nice. I approve of me!

actually that's the sorceress portrait model that's in an unfortunate place, which I cut up until there was just the head and neck. same with the bones. then i just transferred that edited model to the main model via matrix eater :3 the crown was added a bit after that

anyway, here's an unnecessary beauty shot from ingame XD

..someone tell me are shadows like this supposed to be on a model? Oo They seem to 'follow the sun' as i move the hero ingame, but i haven't tested it the for the whole war3 day
