Project Currently paused

 

[sonofjay]

Nice to see this project having its thread now, but man, at least try to use tinypic or imageshack because opening those images is kinda time consuming, pm me all the needed details then I'll make a better thread.

 

[Situ]

in 5 seconds they are all loadet, what pc do you have^^?

 

[sonofjay]

Latest probably, and I'm referring on the viewers effort, only few people will mind to open those images just to see your work.

 

[Situ]

open

why they should open it, its orginal size^^ they dont have to leave this page its everything fiewed, i think something doesnt work with your pageload^^
edit: i ask two friends to look at the thread, and they can see everything too^^

 

[sonofjay]

@Site, they work on any german connection, haven't you notice the guy who asked why your image is not working on your UI? not all can see it, so its better to find a better image hosting site. Or just attach the images here then use BBCodes, that will not really take a hell of time than trying to open them to see the images and some are not even working. Please think of others not yourself or your friend, since you guys can already see them.

[Situ]

oh, i dont know thats only can be seehn on germen connections, i will fix it soon

 

[Situ]

- presentation fixed, hope now it will work !

 

[Grievous1]

Looks interesting... I will follow it.

 

[Situ]

öhm grivious you can follow it on inwarcraft too, i thought you are a german ^^?

 

[ResidentV]

Nice! oddly enough I'm working on something similar x.x... but with more fantasy elements and focus on RTS than micro-managing resources and towns, but this is very cool! something to look forward to indeed

 

[sonofjay]

Now that is what i call a great presentation, hoping to see more progress on you.

 

[Situ]

Thx i took me some hours, currently i work with Retrosexual he does make some terrainskin/doodade updates so there will be lower mapsize and hopefully higher quality

 

[sonofjay]

Nice, Retro is a good modeller, so nice that you got him on your team. Anyway, i'm really laughing out hard because we're using the same UI. xD,

 

[Situ]

yeah i think i made a realy good job with it^^, but maybe i will change the selection circle and made some minor change at the UI, but lets see i now waiting for restos answer to a problem. maybe someone who reds this knows a answer too. I can not use JNGP but i realy want to disable doodade limit, i tried with grimoire but i got a error when i tried to enable unlimited. maybe someone knows another way

 

[sonofjay]

Follow this steps to how to download and install JNGP, just remember that you can't test map on JNGP so you have to test it manually on warcraft.

[Situ]

i can´t install it cause my map is hole gui and i need the gui hashtables :/

edit: yesterday befor i go to sleep i was thinking about the map and i think i will translate the current status in english an will work on ine nglish, i get more feedback and help here on hive then on inwarcraft, i will do german version later^^

 

[sonofjay]

Well it is way better to do the English version first, since its better to translate what you're planning than translating what you have done.

 

[Sin'dorei300]

Hey, Situ, u need ideas?

 

[Situ]

Currently not really, i have to plan and structer the basics first, trigger some basic systems and translate a lot of text^^ But in later progress defenitly yes!

 

[Grievous1]

öhm grivious you can follow it on inwarcraft too, i thought you are a german ^^?

Grievous1* xD Well, you are right I'm german but I'm just more active at the hive than at inwarcraft.de so I will follow it here. ^^ If you need a beta tester or something in the future I'm up. Anyway keep it up and have a nice day! +rep

 

[Lordkoon]

Smells like a win. Will subscribe for sure.
I hope this does not end like most too ambitios projects > in the recycle bin due to promissing too much while loosing motivation


p.s. Am I the only one unable to locate this UI download page or is it just private?

 

[ResidentV]

its custom made for this project

 

[Situ]

with this UI its something special, i made it only for the map first, then i share it with sonofjay whos project is realy nice and i am realy happy to have shared it with him now we support our projects if we can . I shared it with another project too what seems good, but the creator doesnt answer or said thx for it so i made some really diffrent experience. But in generel i don´t think i will give it to someone i dont know anymore.



But the bigest problem what realy realy have to be improved is the doodadelimit, i need free space to be creative O.O. i can´t use JNPG and with grimoire i get error when i use unlimit. pls i realy need help

 

[sonofjay]

About the JNGP, what error do you get? I'm sure the instruction on the link I gave you is working since its also the steps that I followed to install mine.

either increase the doodads size like replacing 5 grass doodads with 1 that is bigger to fill the empty space or try to get help to fix that error. Also avoid using the small pathing blockers and make bigger ones. That shoud free some doodad space.
Also I would suggest reconsidering the 'save hero' idea. It would bring HUGE disbalance between older and newer players and eventually lead to leavers due to enemy hero being too strong at early. Hero saving in player vs player enviroment is really a game-killer. I'd point out a few examples of great maps going down by this exact way but I don't even remember their names anymore.
One other suggestion I would give is make a system for the dragon queen fight so lets say only 1 player can fight her at once (close gates, block way etc. for others while fighting) to avoid last hits by enemy campers.

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Subscribing. Im hyped up for this :{D

 

[DrizztDoUrden]

Me too

- i have multigrass bu i cant create multidoodades for everythin cause i need the space for real models^^
- i created 8x8 and 16x16 blockers i think thats ok^^
- there doesnt stand you can save hero you can enable some codes who give you so smaller thinks like minipets or style gimics, and everything what influences the gameplay hast to be bought in the next game. (example: you found an ultra rare minipet what has a good support spell, but the game ends in 5minutes, you save it and can buy it in next game )
-the bossfight barry is a good idea

edit: here is my grimoire error, maybe someone knows something

 

[sonofjay]

This problem is either

• Runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries are missing.
• Or something is wrong on your software.

To solve the first problem, you can just re-install your Runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries

If that doesn't work

Then you might need to clean your boot.

• Click Start, type "MSCONFIG" (without the quotations) in the Search Bar and Press "Enter" to start the System Configuration Utility.
• Click the "Services" tab, check the "Hide All Microsoft Services" box and click "Disable All" (if it is not gray).
• Click the "Startup" tab, click "Disable All" and click "OK".
• Restart the computer and test the issue.

Note: Clean Boot is a troubleshooting step. If some programs have been disabled, you can re-enable them later. If you see the System Configuration Utility, check the box of "Don't show this message" and then click "OK".

Please monitor the system in the Clean Boot environment. If the problem does not occur, it indicates that the problem is related to one application or service you have disabled. You may use the MSCONFIG tool again to re-enable the disabled item one by one to find out the culprit.

 

[Situ]

oh ok thx i will look at it^^
mhm i dont know if i should dIsable all basic functions of my pc, with my luck it will not work after that xD

 

[Codric]

This sound inresting I can't wait to find out how the finished product looks.

 

[Situ]

So i made some thougths about the current problem and know i have a idea and want to hear if it gets supported^^:
as you know currently the weaponsystem works that the hero gets the attackpower/attackspeed of the weapon and for that i need a GUI hashtable cause i can no Jass. but so i cant use jngp to disable doodadelimit, my idea now is to remove that weaponsystem so the hero has normal attack what gets improved by attackspeed/attackpower, with this change the normale units can use the wepons too so you havnt to sold the good items and can improve your units.

error with jnpg, the tools hate me -.- ....
5000 errors with basicfunctions wtf


if i use older wc3 with patchstatus 1.22 it works... but i think i will miss a lot of options?

 

[Lordkoon]

I hope you have a backups of your map. Try the latest before that which gives you errors.

 

[Situ]

the problem is jngp not the map, it works when gamestatus is at 1.22 but not with 1.26 and i dont know which gamestatus i really need now

 

[DrizztDoUrden]

Are you using latest helper?

 

[Situ]

So it works now, but i am a little confused, someone said me i cant use gui hastables but it works... mystirous

 

[Chizume]

So far it looks pretty!

 

[Situ]

There will be some Terrainchanges coming what makes the terrain more wc3 style then hq
-Retrosexual fixed the stonemodels, they use ingame texturesand have better wrapping
-hopefully there will be another stonetileversion that fits with the stones soon
-better pines
-some stone/wood/building exports of "Refuge of the ruins"

The best is i now can use alot more doodades, prepare for better terrain !
But first there is some work to structure the map more, so sadly i have to delete current terrain, cause it was to randomly created. but i think there will be some new terrainpictures soon!


I am currently thinking about encrasing the mapsize to max 480x480, so i would add some caves/dungeons and have more freeespace to use

 

[Situ]

i started to made a part of the real gameterrain, this will be the entrance to the druidhalls

hopefully i will get the new stonetile soone so i can mak some other screens^^

 

[HOooDy]

I Smells Awsomeness , I Like The Way You Present It! ..

I Wish You Will Done It. +Rep For You!

I Want To Help You W/ Your Terrain But I Think You Didn't Need Anymore .

 

[mango]

love the screenie! Nice work!!

 

[Sin'dorei300]

Great!

 

[Situ]

New Screenies

edit: the willowtree on pic 3 isnt such green anymore

Mind that i work on systems and units too, so the terrainprogress rise and falls comparing what i currently do^^

 

[Sin'dorei300]

Great terrain!

 

[DrizztDoUrden]

Coooooool!

 

[Wazzz]

judging from your initial post, this project sounds really incredible. where can i play this?

the concepts sound pretty great, although i'd rather see it in action before i pass further judgment.

 

[Situ]

where can i play this

hopefully everywhere when its finish^^
the mainproblem currently is the progress, i get help with model and skins but i have to do the hole terrain, systems and scripts by my own, and cause i passed school now the freetime get much smaller^^

 

[Wazzz]

you know, as i was reading parts, i was thinking 'this game, it sounds like heroes of might and magic, only done in a different style'

then i just read the part where some parts ARE based on HoMM

even the style of the pictures with the text and stuff made me think it was

am i able to snag a playable test version? this sounds like my kind of project (i'm quite the heroes of might and magic fan :3)

 

[sonofjay]

You really improved your terrain from the map you gave me before, good job bro.

And nice to see that you're using the models from my project.
