JALM v0.2

Linaze: First of all, the gameplay was pretty slow and consisted mainly of moving around without knowing where to go because there weren't many instructions. The boring part was that after a few minutes of searching and eventually finding what you're looking for, you get a new place to search for. Anyways, let's go on, the terrain wasn't so good, I'm more specifically referring to the tile variation and the lack of doodads. It was also odd that there was asphalt tiles, but yet the map felt very medieval, oh well. All in all, a fairly boring, confusing map with rather poor terrain.

I love it! Its better than all those stupid LOAPs. Only I found few bugs, like: 1.When you have 1 peace of stone and make ordinary wall, stone will not disapear, so you can make milions of walls from one peace of stone! 2.And whats wrong with taxi, it dont works at all!
At all, I think that this map has a really big potencial. You start as a man that is working dirty job, and at the end, you are a rich business man!

P.S. Can you give me unprotected version of map, I want to see at trigers.

Thank you. I would send you an unprotected version, but then of course that runs the risk of other people acquiring it and making rigged versions. It's not that I don't trust you, I just don't want to make the mistake loap made. I could copy n paste the triggers and PM them to you though.

 

[Skudgemuffin]

Updated to v0.1a: Fixed a few bugs.

 

[Tleno]

You haven't fixed all bugs with taxi. Sometimes you can't quit from taxi job, and sometimes you don't get taxi car or you still have it when you quit.

 

[Hugomath]

WHEN IT'S GONNA BE READY THE 1.0???

I WANNA PLAY IT ^^!

Great map!!!! give 20/5

 

[Skudgemuffin]

lol you can still play it, you know. I'm still working on it.. kind of.

EDIT: I'm starting to work on it much more now. v0.2 will be a huge step-up.

 

[3rgytr54]

hey do you need some street signs -- http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/resources.php?u=3rgytr54

 

[wereguy2]

Given the fact that this is discontinued, and the huge number of bugs, I think it should be rejected.
Lulz, teh phurnichur moves!

 

[Krl70]

This is an extremely nice idea, with some work it could really be good. For now i give it 3/5 but with later improvement i may increase.

 

[MatouMacabre]

Are you working on this at all?

 

[Skudgemuffin]

No, I've stopped working on this awhile ago. Maybe I should release the latest version I have, which is much better than the one currently uploaded (I think).

I've moved on to things outside of Warcraft. I'm developing a Flash game at the moment. It has a couple of similarities to this map, though it's in the time of swords and whatnot.

Anyways, why do you ask?

 

[Tleno]

Well yes, you could upload a latest version. Just without that terrible first person like in that version you gave me, please.
Flash games? Outside warcraft? Have you ever tough about Starcraft 2?

 

[Skudgemuffin]

I tried Starcraft II's editor during the beta and I found it to be incredibly complicated :s It even ran slow on my computer that passs all of the system requirements. Besides, Flash games can be played by anyone with an internet connection. Though when I do end up buying Starcraft 2, I'll probably remake this map in it.

I'll also update the map here to the 0.2 in a few minutes.

edit: Map updated. 0.2 is unprotected and new features are probably filled with bugs, but it's still better than the old version.

 

[Spiderligh]

Incrible! beautiful models

 

[WONDERWOMAN]

Please fix the bug of citizen under water or over roofs, it's too easy to fix...
The idea is really good. I give it 3/5 beacuse is far to be an user-friendly map and need a lot of improvement.

 

[Skudgemuffin]

Thanks!

 

[Tleno]

Wow, those buildings now actually look much better than in version you gave to me... or it's just me?
So are you gonna continue this project (You can try by making smnall updates with minor changes, this will help keep on going!)?

 

[Skudgemuffin]

Maybe I will continue it if it starts to get attention, but otherwise I think I will be more productive working in Flash or Starcraft 2.

 

[Hugomath]

Yes! Please continue!! ;D

I really liked this version. As you said, "version 0.2 will be a huge step". Anyways, try adding some new cars, you know. There are such cool models in Hive, like the Skyline R32, the Corvette, etc. If you want, I have two models of cars here, however, I don't know who is the author. It's a dark blue Chrysler 300C and some other car which I don't know the name, but it's team color is all over the body, and looks nice.

Great Game with Giant Potencial, its sad that you will not continue this :/
Mayby you should pass map to other trustworthy map maker?

The map is unprotected, so anyone can try to continue it. Maybe I will work on it a little when I finish my current project...

 

[Hugomath]

Hey! Found a little bug: In that crack filler job, when you enter in the statue and click on the purple box, the crack will not disappear, so basically, if you enter and exist like 20 times and then make box-selecting, you will finish with one click AND only one crack will be deleted... so you can make 20 or more checks with just one go...

 

[Skudgemuffin]

Yes, that job is rather buggy. But thanks for the report!

 

[Krl70]

welll... there was a bug for me there, my friend whom had the job couldn't click the cracks, however i could, to get him out of there i had to press his cracks...

EDIT: i found another bug, some of the buildings are facing the wrong way, making you unable to enter them because you cant see the entrances,

 

[Skudgemuffin]

You can still get inside. Just right click somewhere in the building.

 

[Krl70]

indeed, but it is hard to see that you are able to enter

 

[Tleno]

Damn why did you left that third person system on? I told you it's bugged!

 

[Krl70]

uhhh... i cant remember what was 1st, second and 3rd person system, was it 1 = from eyes, 2 = from behind head, and 3 = bird eye?

 

[Skudgemuffin]

Damn why did you left that third person system on? I told you it's bugged!

Then don't use it

 

[Tleno]

Don't use it? And how do I deactivate it? You mean... editing the map itself and turning it off?

 

[Hugomath]

lol what's that first person you are saying? That camera you press Up Arrow and shows a message: "copy" or sometimes "copy copy", and makes some strange moves ?

 

[Skudgemuffin]

You activate the camera by hitting escape. I'll just update it and remove it since it's so buggy and unfinished.

 

[Hugomath]

Ok, but what is the Up Arrow for?

 

[Skudgemuffin]

I don't even remember

Updated to v0.2a.

 

[Tleno]

It says this resource is not aviable! :O

 

[Hugomath]

Yeah, same thing to me.

 

[Skudgemuffin]

Has it always been rejected?

 

[Krl70]

no, one could downoad it before, and it had a 2/5 (lacking)

 

[Skudgemuffin]

Well... this is unfortunate...

 

[Tleno]

I think you should contact mods or even better admins. There is some weird bug at the Hive that sometimes maps get just... rejected :O

 

[Ironside]

The resource seems available to me, also look at at modertor comments it has 2/5 yet not rejected or approved.

I will decide based upon the next few comments if it will be approved or rejected. Simply make a short comment saying if it should be approved or not.

 

[Hugomath]

In my opinion, It should be approved. It's very detailed and fun . Much better than those gay and stupid LoaP modified editions.

Yes, the map is now pending and available. I contacted the staff and it was reset.

 

[Ironside]

As a Reviewer of the Map Reviewers Group, I joined the THW Cleaning Event.
I end up writing a fast review, or just posting the end state of the map, rating is not always included!


Current State for this map: Approved (2/5)

Additional Information:


I will contact the moderator to Approve/Reject the map, depending on what you recieved.

 

[Skyswimsky]

I playd version 0.1. it was very...alphaish and you wasnt able to do so much, i just looked over the trigger for that map for now....you should fix the leaks!

And as far as i can remember, a Map with leakin triggers dont get approved?

If leaks make it unplayable or a real torture, then yes, otherwise it's just decreases the map rating.

 

[drakexx]

[Lolt]
