[Altered Melee] Normalized Damage

[Cokemonkey11]

Hey guys,

I have a new project I'm working on which aims to balance, increase gameplay speed, and introduce more skill to, melee wc3.

The first part of this I've done is normalize all the damage units deal so that, for example a unit that deals 9-11 damage instead does 10-10

I've calculated this using:

where base is the base damage, dice is the number of dice, and sides is the number of sides per die.

I don't know how likely it is that I'll ever do enough work to this map to release it due to my limited time, but if in any case someone would like to use this data, I'm uploading it for public use.

Thanks,

PS: Someone should enable the upload of .w3u files -_-

Im not really sure if im getting you right, but why dont you just set the damage to 10 in the object editor?

^dude, i think you're not understand what is he saying
just try what you said, it won't appear 10 at the gameplay..

 

[Cokemonkey11]

That's basically what I've done.

8 + 1d3 -> 9+1d1

which means

9-11 -> 10-10

It's not "hard" work, it just takes a long time, so it could be useful for someone!

 

[Rheiko]

yes it would be useful, btw... how could it takes a long time?
i've found this method 1 year ago

Because I've done it for all melee units (maybe 3 hours of work)

There should be a programmer's solution to modifying the internal databases, but alas, the least I can do is share my result.

 

[Rheiko]

wow, for all?
nice

I've set the damage to 10-10 many times, especially when I make a game based on "Kodo tag". I just make the dice and sides into 1, and change the damage to 9. It becomes 10. Im not sure if im getting you right, but there no harm in sharing right? xD
