Mini-Mapping Contest #13 - Ghastly Realm

[Dehua_Darbuya]

Not sure if this counts as a WIP 'coz I've been busy lately and barely made any progress, but here goes!

P.S.: Do we upload WIPs of our maps to show our trigger progress or just post the code?

just a question. Can I request help in the forums? or is that seen as teamwork?

Certainly. I think it's not yet considered as team work.

 

[Paillan]

Objection! Getting help is ilegal... In America!

Good thing I'm across 'the pond' then.

 

[Paillan]

But everyone knows that every place on earth belongs to America...
Yu gi oh adbridged references aside, I think it's quite in the limit to say the least.

 

[PrinceYaser]

Done 50% of the triggers of my map.

 

[Deleted member 219079]

By the way, does the map have to be compileable? If yes, can it be in ugly JASS2 code?

 

[PrinceYaser]

can it be in ugly JASS2 code?

Why you do not want to use world editor triggers?

 

[Deleted member 219079]

I would take the JH output. Doesn't exclude trigger usage.

Awesome, thanks! Saves me the effort of putting together WIP maps and saves everyone else the trouble of running the map to see the code.

Can I request help in the forums? or is that seen as teamwork?

If your requested help is a model/icon/skin then it's allowed, I asked Rufus about this.

And here is another WIP, just a small change since I've been doing the Heroes and some spells.

Spoiler

 

[Systemfre1]

If your requested help is a model/icon/skin then it's allowed, I asked Rufus about this.

So I can't ask for world editor help or trigger advice? Not exactly a request for something to be made/done. Simply a way to create a certain function or w/e.

 

[Sclammerz]

You can!

 

[Rence Kristoff]

That I haven't ask him, but I think it's allowed you are only being taught and you are the one who is still going to do it, but still, better ask him

 

[PrinceYaser]

Done 100% of the terrain:

Hidden

By the stars, that is crazily good.

 

[PrinceYaser]

Thanks a lot!

[Rence Kristoff]

What's with the no spaces? XD

[Rence Kristoff]

Ah, I see. So I'm not the only one who checks hive other than on computers/laptops XD

 

[AditTechno]

Ah, I see. So I'm not the only one who checks hive other than on computers/laptops XD

So do I.
Wanted to participate, but I have to reobtain Warcraft III. I'll participate when I have reobtained WC3.

 

[Rence Kristoff]

There is still a lot of time, unless if your map will be very hard to make that it will take more than a month.

 

[NightStalker]

Afai have checked, ive seen awesome entries, i want to participate and i have a very good horror minigame idea in my mind but i might not make it to the deadline but ill try if i can find time. Keep these awesome wips/entries coming!! It is enjoyable enough just to watch too

 

[Ungoliath]

Ooh, I would love to participate in this contest! I have an idea for a multiplayer horror map

 

[AditTechno]

There is still a lot of time, unless if your map will be very hard to make that it will take more than a month.

I can't participate here. I can only start December 21. But I think I can and I want to try.

 

[Rence Kristoff]

So what's it really going to be?

 

[Systemfre1]

I can't participate here. I can only start December 21. But I think I can and I want to try.

Hey man, if you have a good idea and can commit a week straight to getting it done I'm sure it's possible.

 

[Sclammerz]

Done with the terrain. Gonna start with the gameplay soon!

 

[PrinceYaser]

Done with the terrain. Gonna start with the gameplay soon!

Well, this is amazing!

Hello. I'm working on a school project to make a game. And this time I'm using the World Editor. And it's quite a coincidence that my little project fits this contest's theme. So I may want to sign my map project into this contest as well.

The title is "Dark Sign". It's a multiplayer co-op third person shooter game. You and folks are asked to raid to an abandoned laboratory to take an important document there. But the copter can't drop you right around the lab area because it's too dangerous to land there (surrounded by aliens).

It's a multiplayer map but only need a single PC to play. However, you can only play it using joystick. And it requires a third party tool so called Sharpcraft. If the rule is okay with that, I will go on to sign in.

I just got started yesterday this what I got for now:
1. Intro scene (class selection)


2. Intro cinematic 1


3. Intro cinematic 2


4. Troops are landed from the copter (cinematic)


5. Starting area


6. Around the starting area


I just got the joystick control working, and those.. nothing else..

 

[Paillan]

Please tell me this is not Warcraft 3... right? right?

 

[PrinceYaser]

Please tell me this is not Warcraft 3

Why??

 

[Paillan]

Why??

Because if it is, then we all lost already. Did you look at that quality?

 

[Rence Kristoff]

Freakin Insane. By the stars

 

[Rex.]

I am going to ask the moderator about this one. Stay tuned.

 

[Kazeon]

Btw, before I get going deeper with the control, which gameplay do you prefer: single-player first person shooter or multiplayer third person shooter (playable for 1-3 players)? The reason I can't make multiplayer fps is because I have a constraint to only use one PC. : (

 

[Tickles]

While your map looks nice and probably feels very fluid with a joystick, most people won't have a joystick and won't be able to test your map at all if that's the only way to play it. And third party tool requirements, regardless of how simple they are to get, are just going to make it more complicated.

I suggest making two versions of the map; a simplified version for the contest with arrow key or mouse controls, and one you can pursue outside the contest with joystick controls and whatever other requirements you want to include to make it play more smoothly for your school project.

 

[PrinceYaser]

Because if it is, then we all lost already. Did you look at that quality?

Well, we should hope to our works, however I think we don't have any chance!

 

[Deleted member 219079]

You mean how it looks?

 

[Rence Kristoff]

I think we don't have any chance!

Don't be like that

You mean how it looks?

Yep he meant that.

 

[Kazeon]

You mean how it looks?

(Yeah the gameplay actually sucks...)
Sorry, but I'm not planning to win this contest only with visual alone.

I suggest making two versions of the map; a simplified version for the contest with arrow key or mouse controls, and one you can pursue outside the contest with joystick controls and whatever other requirements you want to include to make it play more smoothly for your school project.

I will make a tool to allow one play (launch) the map with a single click. And make it playable without joystick: fps mode for single player.

 

[The_Silent]

Sadly, I can only assume your map was started way before the contest.

Your submission may not be started/made before the official launch of the contest.

 

[Kazeon]

I just got started yesterday this what I got for now:

Actually it only started 2 days ago...

Really my terraining is in fact much less than satisfying. I only did it quickly because I only have roughly 10 days left before the deadline for my school project.

I think I've just realised that you started your work BEFORE the contest was announced. Therefore, according to the rules, your project can't be used for the contest, unless you want it to be immediately disqualified for not following rules (in this case, starting to work before the contest). While the use of old project is allowed,I don't know if this count as such...

 

[Rex.]

@Quilnez , Please specify the starting date of your map creation.

 

[Systemfre1]

I just got started yesterday this what I got for now:

Well, if we can take your word for it.

I'd be sceptical that you actually started it a day before that post, but I'm not against it.

There are ways to actually prove you only started when you say you started.


EDIT: I'd also like to remind you all that the contest started almost a month ago. I think there is a lot of time in which this could have happened after the 1st.
