Map Development Mini-Contest #2 [Hero Defense]

[~Void~]

Just to make it clear, if a spell doesn't contain imported GFX, it doesn't count as an import.

Yeah I'm gonna load my map with spells and systems

 

[BlinkforFear]

this is going to be kinda tuff with only 10 imports i wont get any custom spells in

Edit: hehehe 123 posts!!!

Lame idea. I only plan on using xe and Timer Utils. The rest of the systems will be made by myself.

Why is that lame? I can't code for shit, so I'm going to use the resources from here. That's what they are there for.

 

[Campir]

How can he mark someone out of 5 for coding if you didn't actually code anything... you just imported it all... Will importing all your systems and spells effect your coding mark?

 

[M4stah]

My idea: Not another Hero Defence. A bit of a parody on all HD's and survivals out there, with all cliché classes, skills, items and everything.

EDIT:Screw that. Internet Hero Defence here we go

 

[JansiGX]

My idea: 4 player map. It will be a little like X hero siege. number of waves will be small but every every wave will have many different units.
Here is some screen shots of my work so far.
1) object that must be protected. I suck at making terrain so that thing is best I could make.
2) first hero I made. Still needs to improve spell triggers though.

 

[Campir]

Waaaait.

Does it have to be done directly on the template map or can it be done on a map with the same size and camera bounds but different base tileist?

 

[scorpion182]

Here's my first WIP

You can change the base tileset without making a new map. I'm sure you could pull off the latter anyways without anyone noticing.

 

[BlinkforFear]

im to dam lazy to do triggers... i wish you could just think the triggers into the map instead of having to put them in by the click of a mouse

 

[Campir]

Lol I was just thinking the same.... ()

 

[MultiGod]

Where'd you submit it?

 

[Archipelago]

This sounds like fun, WIP!

Edit: Another WIP

Edit Again: More WIP

 

[Campir]

can we protect are maps or are you planing on opening them in WE to see what makes them tick?

 

[JansiGX]

There is no reason to protect the map. How do you expect getting any point for coding if no one can see it?

 

[bounty hunter2]

You can't protect your maps.

 

[BlinkforFear]

Well my bro managed to delete an important windows file on my comp, then my dad proceded to reset the comp without backing the files up, so now I have no map and with only 2 weeks left I think I'll be dropin out.

Kinda sucks too cause my map looked pretty good

I'm doing this on an Itouch...

 

[Ken Christopher]

Here's my another WIP screenshots

 

[Kwah]

Holy shit. Just found this

In.

 

[Rowboat]

Im in! For sure Good luck all!

EDIT: Is importing spells allowed?

 

[Ken Christopher]

You may have up to ten (10) imports in your map.

I think you can import spells to your map, since that it just says that you can have up to 10 imports with no any exceptional rules.

 

[Rowboat]

Here is a WIP, terrain is hard >.< Now do triggers...

Good luck to all of you guys!

 

[busterkomo]

Bah, I've decided to completely remake my map. I should still be able to finish on time.

 

[~Void~]

As soon as I'm able to get caster system working, triggers should be easy enough. I love vexorian's systems. ^^

 

[Kwah]

Erm.

What the hell was the point of the template map?

All it does is stop people going above a certain size, which you could have just put in the rules.

 

[Campir]

As soon as I'm able to get caster system working, triggers should be easy enough. I love vexorian's systems. ^^

Once again I'm brought to the question: will using somone elses systems as a vital part of your map decrease or increase your coding mark, or lower your mark in any other categories, since it isn't you doing any real coding, just using premade coding available at the site.

Using. Systems. Is. Good. Anyone who says otherwise should not be judging coding.

 

[Slaydon]

Could i join?
EDIT: How many players should it be?

 

[~Void~]

Ooh yay I'm going to completely remake Vexorian's caster system in order to prove that I don't suck at coding!

[/sarcasm]

 

[BlinkforFear]

y dont we just take coding out of the whole picture so everyone will shut up and so that every one is happy because im sure most people suck at coding

IT ALWAYS SAID FT. QFT. NOT QTF.

YOU HEAR ME?

I'm not enterring, but i shurely make my own GOBLIN version!

The Problem is that when he gets to hes second waypoint, he will go back to Create spot

 

[Kwah]

If the unit is Neutral Hostile, change his return to camp or possibly acquisition range. It's in the Object editor somewhere.

 

[~Void~]

I've got a request. Can the deadline be postponed until a week after 1.24 officially comes out? I want to upgrade to the 1.24 beta so I can work on my map, but then I wouldn't be able to play on bnet with my friends.

 

[Slaydon]

Nope. They go from their start position, to theire own waypoint, and then just go back and stops.

First of all, you should ask this on triggers forum.
There is a bug about entering regions: when unit enters region from left side and bottom (if I remember right) it is still outside of region. I had this problem once I wanted to do something similar.
I can suggest you use 'order (entering unit) attack move to next region'.

Also: do you know that this trigger creates all those unit groups every time a single unit enters any region from events?

 

[Slaydon]

Lool, i totally forgot about that, we only need groups for the start xD
EDIT: Its for this map

 

[Rowboat]

Another WIP, hope i will finish this in time . . .

 

[Slaydon]

I think i will unsign, im travelling for a week on monday, and working so much on my Project.

 

[Campir]

.... Using systems is good but it proves you know how to import not code...

Not sure if anyone saw this.

 

[JansiGX]

If you really think it's unfair then use systems too.
what's that caster system anyway?

 

[~Void~]

http://www.wc3c.net/showthread.php?t=80534

Vexorian's Caster System. It provides many functions that make spellmaking a lot easier and a lot less painful. Things like functions that can be called and create a unit for a player and orders that user to cast a spell, or creating a unit for a player that lasts a certain duration and adds a passive to that unit. Very very very useful.

 

[Kwah]

You should use xe.

 

[~Void~]

What's that? Link? :3

Mind you it's a lot harder to use than the caster system.
