Mapping - Map without object editor

[Xonok]

The point of this contest would be focusing entirely on the design part of game creation and specifically how to make much from little.
Thus, the limitations:
No object editor.
No imports.

Possibly viable genres:
ORPG(because a large part of content creation is out of the way)
Survival
PvP
Puzzle
Essentially whatever you can make with this limitation.

Clarification:
Any part of unit data that can be changed with triggers is allowed to be changed. The limitation is strictly that the object editor remains untouched. Replacing models of existing units should be disallowed separately.
Enhancing existing abilities through triggers is allowed.
ObjectMerger and any tool that fills the same purpose is disallowed.

Quite a hard challenge, total trigger editor challenge.

 

[LordDz]

So, Vanilla Wc3 with added triggered spells and so on?
Sounds nice.

 

[rulerofiron99]

Tooltips, manacosts, cooldowns?

 

[Xonok]

They can only be changed in object editor, so probably no.

I must admit the idea intrigues me a lot. It would allow people to show off all their triggering skills to make a map with everything default interesting. I like this idea and I would surely give it a try if the contest is approved.

 

[PublishedShadow]

I agree, this is actually a pretty straight-forward yet intriguing contest idea.
Having a set vanilla object editor is a really interesting concept, I like the challenges it presents.

 

[Xonok]

I appreciate your support. If enough people get interested, I'd maybe take part in this as well.

 

[Majkowski]

Sounds interesting, but I won't participate, I just really want to see the entries.

 

[Rex.]

That would be insane hard. Lets see about it.

Pretty challenging for most map makers, Although it will be rare that someone will join this one if they have such a good triggering/programming skill and find multiple ways to do with the decent Wc3 units/abilities.
I'm just gonna watch them how they'll do.

This Contest idea is literally the antithesis of all I hold dear; I live in the OE, and try to avoid touching the TE wherever possible. Lol.

Good luck!

 

[Kino]

Id be happy to have this as the next weekend contest.

 

[Meatmuffin]

Bump, trying to revive this since this is a cool idea

 

[Blightsower]

Wait. Enhancing the spells by truggering means?
a. Am i allowed to create a new spell? But how about the tooltips and manacost?
b. How about dummy casters? Its hard to create triggered spells without using dummy casters.

 

[Xonok]

a. Do you have to open object editor or otherwise touch object data to do it? Yes, so it's not allowed.
b. If you can make existing units work as dummy casters without messing with them in object editor, then you can use them, but only then.
