RARP -----Crusade







(Click image, or download button below to download.)

Description:

RARP - Crusade is the first, of hopefully many RARP terrains to come. This terrain has a nice diversity of landscapes, ranging from Mine/Cave interiors, to coastal tropical islands. Some nice large forests, with prime city, castle and town locations spread through out. Ascending slowly into a mountainous terrain in a nice transition to a large desert suitable for an orc camp.
Along with all this, it fixes many minor bugs in past RP maps. Fences, for example, can now be used with "'fs" (they can be rotated). It also includes a new terrain changer system. No, the terrain changer is NOT taken from Aodrp or HRP 1.4 castles although it does use similar chat commands to avoid confusion between experienced Rpers.

Umm, i think your getting a bit paranoid. And technically every RP map is stolen at some point. Besides, i rped with him, he's fine. Also, the only reason no one really got upset because he took Dobrp, was that the makers stopped making it. So technically, it died. He revived it with HRP. HRP died (If you check the forums). And a few edits were made, HRP 1.4 castles had horrible terrain and ruined the old one. Nothing but a small edit. AODRP just slapped on a terrain changer and some new skins. It didnt even bother changing the terrain.

So i made this. Im getting offtopic here.

You might like to post this in Map Development, but please do provide screenshots.

I would but umm, its technically finished. Now im just updating it every now and again and working on a new one.

UPDATE: And, while hosting the map, who do i see, Maric.

That is highly unlikely, for three reasons:

1. Maric's account on his own forums has been inactive for over a year.
2. Maric's account on Azeroth expired, and has been expired for over a year - I checked.
3. One of my friends who plays WarCraft III would have known if Maric begun to play again, because he was the person who urged Maric to use WEU for HRP, and designed the Mountains terrain for HRP.

Ya, this thread wasnt updated, i am suspecting it wasnt him. but i did /whois , and he knew so much (triggers etc.) i'd really thunk it was him. Right now i think i know who did it, just to get attention. (Ban time)

Well, you must like my HRP Castles to some degree since you asked if you could help work on it on my forums at one point. :wink:

AoDRP's terrain changer was copied from HRP 1.4's, and Hellsangel has now offered to give me credit. As for Maric, he didn't steal it. He received permisson from theblackmage.

And as for:

I think you missed the truly ingenious part of Castles. The goal was never a great terrain or models, but innovative new triggers. Hopefully you'll look into it and maybe you'll enjoy the terraining on 1.4b, which I roll out with in a week or two (you can view my progress in my signature.)

LOL! What the heck have you been doing, living under a rock?

Maric never got permission. Motive went spastic and utterly berserk when Maric created HRP.

Well, he seemed pretty civil to Maric on Roleplayer's Hub. He did attribute it to him and Iamthewalrus, after all. It's less stealing than it is breaking in and improving I suppose. I guess I assumed seeing as how I never saw Maric get particularly anger on RPH that Maric got permission.

Anyway, thanks for the update, good new know.

Anarki, Dobrp died basicly, TBM discontinued it, and RP was dying. Maric decided to take it and improve upon it, and so he did. Either if it was stealing or anything else.

The important thing is, the result. There are now many RP maps for Roleplayers to enjoy. So why are you complaining? You cant copyright a Map in Wc3. Because the World Editor doesnt belong to you.

By your theory, we should be giving blizzard credit for every single model we used, we should be giving them credit for B.net, we should be giving them credit for the loading screen and the World Editor. Etc.

And in the end, its a game.

Oh and by the way, i like how you've been giving me, Ancientofrever, Hellsangel, Chamion and all other RP makers a bad reputation because of your selfish paranoia. Bravo!

"Ima tell phpBB to close down your site for fraud."

Rofl Anarki, your a joke.

Ontopic: Forgot to update this to Version 5. Done.

By the way, it says V.4 on the download, but i dunno, epicwar has some bug on it, when you download it, in game its V.5

You probably know this, but Lord-Anarki has a reputation on USEAST for being one of the biggest trolls/flamers in the RP circuit. I've heard a few rumors that he masses mnstr 12 custom_u00r in the base of anyone whose RP he doesn't like. Namely any but his own.

HRP was released by Maric, on his site, officially unprotected. He claimed that "you can do what ever you want with it i dont care". So he basicly voided his ownership. RARP already claims that it is based off of the triggers of HRP and Dobrp (since HRP was mostly based off of Dobrp).

The TRIGGERS only how ever. And alot were re-done, and improved upon. As well as a handful added.

The Terrain is 100% made from scratch, Not even edited from any other terrain. I imported a blank terrain, and started from scratch, this i swear.


And Anarki, this grudge you have against me and RARP is pathetic. And everyone i have talked to, and asked about you, thinks your pathetic. You are a spammer, crasher, and your full of crap. Stop trying to bring me down.

Anaki your pathetic Steel gave credits to DOBRP and HRP for basing the triggers off of there but if you see and are formiler with the RARP triggers he has changed around and added countless new triggers and if you compare RARP map with the other rp maps you will see no match. He might have tooken maybe the idea for a desert and a desert oasis and maybe a few other ideas but his map IS ORIGINAL and MADE FROM SCRATCH.

Anarki was pointing out that the systems(Not the new one wich were pointed out as self made but the commands like setname, size, speed wich were already there) were infact copyed and pasted while TheDivineBoss was comparing the terrains and not the triggers. His terrain is original and made from scratch i must admit that the triggers mostly are copy and pasted wich doesnt add any value to them. Maybe trying to improve some old triggers. Which is done in RARP 6 with one trigger(Maybe more, talking about the dood command) already.

Now could we please stop this discussion. Its better to take something that works correctly as basis then making it all over again, spending houres of work in it and ending up with the same thing (talking about the triggers now).

Ive said what i wanted to say, nice work by the way. The terrain is a little plain on some spots(Lack of doodads like rocks and shrubs) but thats not really a problem.

Dude, every RPmap uses the HRP triggers as a basic and since Maric proclaimed the ''I don't care'' situation, everyone can make something with it.

Oh and SS, you may make a heightlimit with the 'lower and 'raise trigger since I've been massing 'lower till it wasn't possible and when I was done I had a big green line through the screen.

Maybe you also can put a 'soften trigger in it.

Guys, dont spark this up. I already admitted to, and said that RARP uses HRP triggers. There is no harm IMO, because it improves/adds to it. So like hatred said, stop the discussion.

And TDB, there is no function in world editor with a "Smooth". So i cant. And Gath, i did use HRP triggers, but i added/improved upon them, more importantly fixed some leaks that added to the selection bug (Thanks Rui).

RaRP - Metropolis, let's discuss about that. I've heard it was 75% of the map was city so it's possible you can't build that much. And it was based on the Imperial City in TES4:Oblivion, am I right?

I'm wondering what you're going to put in there.

I never said it was wrong i even said that its better to take it as a basis since it works correctly.

Metropolis was delayed, for that reason. I thought about it, the concept of an already finished city in an RP sounds limited. This is where POA failed. I do have other things already undergoing though..

I don't think PoA failed... in fact, I see it hosted pretty often for future themes.

People don't like pre-rendered terrain. Most of the time they just want clearings or empty walls to work with, so I guess that's what you're referring to.

POA is to limited all yu can do is like a future theme or a mass zombie theme or something which ususally fails because here always someone that spawns millions of zombies and excepts a few solders to kill them.

You said it's too limited... why would you host it if you weren't doing a future theme?? The map was designed FOR future themes. That's like turning on Comedy Central on TV and complaining you don't see enough drama/romance.

It IS future, but limited to "apocolyptic" future only. As in the entire map is a wreck (i mean in a literal sense, like the whole city is ruined). So it IS future theme, but lets say you want to do a future theme WITHOUT having everything dead.
