Mini-mapping Contest #9 - Map Size Limited

[BLazeKraze]

I have a little question , So for now, I will change the terrain of my map.
But I will use a extracted model from the game paranoia, the author said that the models or skins cannot be use without permission, I already sent him a message . My question is, what if the author will become inactive and he can't response ? . Can I submit my map ?

 

[Tal'Rarity]

As long as you don't upload it to the maps section, I am sure you can. Fun little loopholes. =)

Though you might want to optimize it and then just send the judges your unprotected version. Then it would or well should be fine because you aren't sharing it then and the judges surely won't do anything with the maps.

I don't know how the other judges feel about this matter however I think we should allow them public privacy as in able to submit a optimized map HOWEVER they are forced to send the map unprotected to the judges. Just seeing how some are already feeling, don't want dropout's after all.

 

[A Void]

Yes you can, just give the author credits. Permission is not needed in this case.

 

[BLazeKraze]

Ok thanks for the answer, now I'm free to create my map.

WIPs

Here are two WIPs of my map "Lord of Hell"

WIP 1

WIP 2

I will give info about the game later because there are still some important things missing like how to win the game.

 

[Tickles]

Here are two WIPs of my map "Lord of Hell".

That looks hot. So I'm guessing you have to do a lot of evading of giant, flaming, firey objects with each playable hero having their own unique styles of doing it?

 

[LordDz]

Oh, this has begun. I will probably continue working on mine in June, it's a RPG of huge scale .

 

[Tickles]

it's a RPG of huge scale .

In a 32x32 map? Or you're just making a small portion of the RPG before expanding it when the contest is over?

 

[Deleted member 219079]

I hope the next contest will be about actual (non-optimized) map size being limited, not map dimensions. I might take part in that.

 

[Brambleclaw]

looks fun

[WaerercraftKillers]

2nd WIP's. BTW the left side of the screen is my map size (Both pics) and there are two pics. the one is the second map areas then the first pic is the clean version of the map.

 

[Cokemonkey11]

My techtree for the first race (spirit):

And a revised terrain (ran into problems):

hidden

 

[WaerercraftKillers]

Thats nice but theres a prob it would be hard to code this units (towers) , so it may take a while.

 

[Cokemonkey11]

They're done.

 

[Daffa]

I must admit the entries WIPs are pretty damn amazing

 

[BLazeKraze]

Another WIP ...

 

[WaerercraftKillers]

"The Asylum" eh, nice horror puzzle game, BTW why is chen here twice?

 

[BLazeKraze]

nc Terrain..

 

[GywGod133]

• New Nice Trees

• LeaderBoard
• Hero Attributes (Custom)

 

[A Void]

Nice! Those are the trees that I uploaded. They belong to blizzard now .
Tough you should change the tile-set too, grass color does not fit with the tree color palette.

 

[Shadow Fury]

That looks hot. So I'm guessing you have to do a lot of evading of giant, flaming, firey objects with each playable hero having their own unique styles of doing it?

Yeah I guess you got my point. I would also like to say that this map can be played multiplayer and with many game modes like "Boss Fight", "Last Man Standing", "Gladiator Mode" and perhaps more!

 

[Chen]

BTW why is chen here twice?

Wut?

 

[Filmting]

A very early playable version of the map:

http://www.epicwar.com/maps/243270/

Just so you can see what it's about. Will be adding more heroes, items and bosses etc.

Edit: Might wna delete the "TEST TRIGGER" to have it work properly ;o

 

[Cokemonkey11]

I don't see how a week will stop you from finishing your map. Also, collaboration is not allowed.

 

[eubz]

Will that be your final entry? BTW, the contest ends June 20 and that's a lot of time for everyone.

 

[Filmting]

A very early playable version of the map:

No it's not my final entry, just a work in progress, since i felt screenshots didn't do justice, and i have no fear of sharing my stuff.

 

[eubz]

I thought that is. BTW, upload your WIPs here next time, if possible.

 

[A Void]

I guess I will continue then.

 

[eubz]

I guess I will continue then.

That's good to know.

Wip 4

WIP 4
-Here's my final WIP preview, I will finish the triggers, terrain, UI, info's, Units, items and ability next week .

---
Oh wait, A simple question,
I don't want to post my map to the public(because the author said "don't extract files without my permission") except for the judges.
How do I post my entry ????

 

[Kazeon]

you guys work fast! @_@

you still have much time to improve it, why decide it as the final so soon?

Sweet terrain! Love that feeling of gloom the atmosphere has. Any info on the gameplay?

- There's no info yet, I will continue working it next week, I'm really tired ,
I already write down the plans .
Just wait, my game is very simple, not complicated

you guys work fast! @_@

- ?? Did you ask me? or the others ??
Well, If you ask me that this is the final W.I.P, because I don't want to show something more, 1-4 WIPS pictures is enough . . .
Maybe I will add next time .

 

[Rheiko]

the heck.. i just started with my wip
but i closed the map and i forgot to save it ._.
need to make it all over again *sighs*

 

[Tal'Rarity]

Maybe you should use auto-save Rheiko.

By the way, I am surprised nobody took advantage of 32x32 manipulation where you complete one part and then generate a new level. Visually confusing the player is always fun.

Though looking good however I suggest not to rush yourselves and to improve your map as much as you can. still got like another month.

 

[GreeN!X]

Well, my boss was sleeping when I was in part time so I did some stuff for my map. This is the only good thing about my accident several weeks ago. Just because I have lotsa broken bones and stuff, people already trust me so much. They don't really watch me if I'm doing my work or not. xD

Anyway, the map has evolved from Azeroth Tech Warfare (Machines vs Magic) to Heavy Weapon (Machines vs Machines vs Zombies), so there isn't much general stuff to do anymore. I am not really satisfied with the basic cannon blast since its an instant thing, but according to my lazy ass, it's just fine. Wasn't able to screenshot it in action though.

Hidden

(Going to do something about the loading bar soon-ish)

(Kinda forgot that stats can't be set to zero...)

I'm nearly done as well. I only have to create other tanks, make the zombie waves, multiboard and then some polishing.

 

[Kazeon]

wanna try my entry? (link) it's still WIP though

 

[eubz]

@sigelang
Actually, you can use the paste bin but this is not suppose to be permitted because we are going to have a public poll as soon as the contest is over. Here, users will vote for their choice. One thing is that, the final entry should be unprotected maps, protected maps will lead to disqualification.

 

[Tal'Rarity]

So it is being enforced that way then? Sorry sigelang and Dalvengyr.

I was kind of hoping that only we needed the unprotected version eubz because some people have issues with sharing. =P

Public poll shares percentage to final score so it is bias to think for voters that only judges can take a look inside a map. Voters might want how the map is created and I guess their vote will also be based on judging criteria and not on something else.

 

[Deleted member 219079]

GreeN!X's UI is awesome

 

[GunSlinger]

So we can make any kind of map? any genre whatsoever?

 

[eubz]

Any genre can be chosen as long as the map size is 32x32.

Understood, sorry about that. Your right it is more fairer. My mistake... =(
Didn't even think about that though does public poll really share such a big percentage? I don't remember that mattering much in any contest. =P

Let me guess, you have to randomly guess who is saying the voice sound? And then click on it to get points? There is already such game, - The Weakest Link.

 

[TheWhiteWolf]

Well, I guess I should post a wip... So, my concept changed, and I started from scratch, so I am a bit delayed :/ Anyway, take a look at this wip.

It's a clear part of a forest (in making).

TIP: You need to go in-game to actually see anything

 

[Kazeon]

haha.. that sounds fun

 

[Dark-Zalor]

Holy shiiiiiiiiit

Ok it's over
