Terraining Contest #18[Playable] - Desert

[Edge45]

Area 45

Lore

Map

WiPs

A foreign base found on the mid-east desert of Vesfrica. It is owned by EvoTech (Egilian Revolutionary Technologies), an Egilian technology administration who supports the nation by its highly classed state of the art technologies. Its power is supplied by the small dam, generating hydroelectricity for the base. There have been rumors of a gigantic bioweapon hidden below the facility, natives weren't clear on what they saw, but they did confirm that the EvoTech Chief Executive Officer Ezekiel visited the area before the civil war began. After the revolutionary war in Egilian, the base was abandoned due to Loyalist Forces bombarding EvoTech bases in Vesfrica. Until the Alphtiberium Disaster, the Egilian Loyalist Forces couldn't reach the desert anymore, and so it was forgotten, the maps and details of its locations were all burned by EvoTech officials who were now executed. It seems they didn't want anyone to know what the gigantic bioweapon really was. Luckily I did, after some "deal" though. Alas, I found the road leading towards it, what lies below that base awaits me, the gigantic bioweapon, what really is it? ... ~ Edge - Page 17, Secrets of Area 45

Note: The Road and Base don't have links because they are not found in the Skin Section anymore, I found this in my Hive's resource stash stuff, and it was already made public. I have no idea why it's not in the resource section though.
Note: If I forgot someone, let me know.
Note: This is my submission, I'm not sure if its final, tell me if there is something wrong.

[Shar Dundred]

Wonderful terrain, Keiji! It looks amazing.

P.S. sorry for my bad english

 

[Veritas 117]

@Keiji

I'm always impressed when someone can make a terrain look good with the normal WC3 tiles. It's not always so easy when there are so many high quality ones out there.
Nice job.

 

[Celaquil]

Thanks guys, it's only a rough start, and progress is slow, so don't get your hopes up
too much. I might not make the deadline. But here's a small update:

 

[btdonald]

[Marjosh38]

Relly Nice. Have you finish it?

Thank You
I think its... over 78% done?? but i don't think so if I can finish it because it was deleted by my little sister but i retrive it and it like my last WIP and i need to fix it up so i can join again

 

[Warseeker]

Thanks guys, it's only a rough start, and progress is slow, so don't get your hopes up
too much. I might not make the deadline. But here's a small update:

Good entries you have here Sir, I didn't know you'll participate too!

 

[Celaquil]

I didn't originally intend to either, and as I've stated more than once: I'm not sure I will
finish it in time. But now that my exams have come closer and closer, terraining helps
calm my nerves. So I decided to try my hand at a desert terrain

 

[Rufus]

Things are starting to look really lovely here!

 

[crabas_sakti]

The end of contest is already near and i'm still new here and new learner about terrain, can i participate into this contest?

 

[APproject]

Go ahead as long as you make it to the deadline.

 

[Celaquil]

So.

Earlier today Ralle helped me figure out how to patch wc3, which is something I haven't
done since forever, because I am a caveman on a computer. And, for whatever reason,
when the game got patched, my map was lost. I've tried everything I can to recover
it, but nothings working. This means I won't enter this contest after all, sorry folks.

I'm not saying it's Ralle's fault, but if you want to blame anyone...

Oh, your entry was so cool, if only you weren't a caveman. Sorry to hear then, I would have really like to check that map.

 

[crabas_sakti]

This will be my WIP, I use desert theme from one of my favorite game, Monster Hunter, is it allowed to use a theme from game?

So there will be a area system, playing on one area so the players and creeps can meet. If the players and creeps are separate, they cannot meet until they in one area. Creeps cannot move into another area, but the players can.

[Oziris]

I'm finishing up the contest entry. Didn't have much time since the last time I dropped by but I managed to do some quality work today! Here is my WIP.

Since the file was too large, I uploaded the map on a different hosting site, hope that doesn't present a problem.

I think you misunderstood the point of the contest. :/

anyway, is there anyone willing to compile a list of all the entries? i'm too lazy to browse all these pages.
I see a lot of nice terrains though, especially Keiji's. Too bad it was lost.

[Naze]

So guys

I'm actually uploading something for this contest! Here is the WIP.

WIPzors

(About being so late: I hesitated uploading the WIPs previously because I didn't know if I would make it to the end... But I was wrong, yay)

 

[Rufus]

Woah! I love what you have done here!
The tilting of the entire palace/ruinish thingy. Very cool stuff!
You better hurry up now though

 

[Edge45]

Indeed

This' something unique, looking forward for you finishing your entry Naze

 

[Celaquil]

Damn guys! This contest is shaping nicely up, I love the entries.

I'm so upset for what happened to my map, would have loved to be part of this.

I guess you can sign me up as judge, fladdie (Yes I said that)

 

[Lightskin]

alright, here's my final entry

Screenshots

A once beautiful stop in the middle of the forest, the town of Yukiville quickly turned into a barren desert after the nuclear war. After many years of radiation the only thing that grows are tough vines and evil weeds. Life has been fully erradicated. The most lucky died to the explosions, but some survived for long years of suffering.

All that is left of Yukiville are ruins and a dead forest overgrown with deadly plants and vines.

 

[Naze]

Final entry

Thank you guys! It was actually a pain in the ass to make the whole building tilted... the objects behaved unpredictably on irregular terrain and I had to retouch things hundreds of times lol

@Lightskin: nice, one more modern-themed entry! I was going that direction too, but I changed my mind later. Good luck!

Final entry

Stone Titan

Main

Screenshots

Features

Credits

Centuries ago, a colossal entity worshipped by the temple's monks was
finally summoned.
Senseless and savage the titan attacked them and in defense they turned
it into stone with magic.
The temple complex is now partially sinked in sand and abandoned.
Still, an eerie magic can be felt in the air - perhaps the reason for the
recent pink flowers that can be found around the area.

(I had to upload somewhere else as pastebin was refusing my file hehe)

Attachment

Please view the map inside Warcraft 3
so you can fully experience it as you can see below
(terrain won't be displayed 100% correctly if you see the map only in the editor).

Attachments

*Pathing - Lack of pathing would ruin the enterable buildings experience so I had to make a pathing for the map;

*Enterable buildings - The roof disappears as you enter and reappears after you leave:

*Smart lighting - When entering a dark building the screen will get darker and the bloom effect is over. When returning to the outdoors again you'll be offuscated by by light for a moment as your character's eyes get used to the light again;

*8 key locations - I made this map with the intention of designing a capture the point kind of level. May be useful for someone and maybe I'll even use it in a project, who knows (after cleaning the obscene amount of unused models ). The locations are marked by ritual circles, as seen below:

*Remember to use the dunes - Tall dunes of sand piled up against walls by the wind should be used by the player to access higher ground or areas behind walls:

Attachments

This map contains regular UTM4 assets plus
public assets found over the Hiveworkshop
as it follows:

(I didn't actually use all this stuff, some were
just collected and then immediately forgotten)

[Oziris]

I'm thinking If I don't get the time to pitch this one up one more time, this entry just may be my final.

http://www.filedropper.com/contest_1

P.S. Naze that looks pretty nice, good luck everyone.

 

[Celaquil]

Could you please either pastebin it or upload it as an attachment Oziris?

 

[Oziris]

No problem, http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/pastebin.php?id=6uqolq

 

[fladdermasken]

So yeah, this is finished. Will get a poll up any day now.

Keith, can I put you down for judging?

 

[Celaquil]

I guess you can sign me up as judge

I guess I've already consented to it. So yes, do it.
I would appreciate a co-judge, though

Any takers?

 

[Heinvers]

I believe that I offered at the beginning of the contest.

Anywho, shame that you didn't finish your entry.
Could've been one of those existential type of terrains.

Quite the long contest that gave me the impression of a fast one.

 

[Bumhunter]

Will there be a poll someday?
