Remembered Classic

1. The issue with the loading screens is that you can't read the description of the chapters as the text is behind the loading bar.
2. Kind of strange that Priests can summon Scorpions.
3. Dragonhawk Rider AoE attack hits air units as well as ground units in the same attack and friendly/player units as well as themselves. Becomes really problematic when having more units at once.
4. Captains use hero models; they have glow and their bodies will remain on the battlefield because of lack of decay animations.
5. Maps could be in one-two campaign files and start one after the other instead of having to manually start each one.

Generally a nice old-fashion RTS gameplay. The downside is that it's not that faithful to the original, since no oil and abilities are Warcraft III.

Approved.

ADDITIONAL NECESSARY INFORMATION

• A credits list in the map thread description is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated too.
• A detailed changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.
• Map thread tags are important. Please use those that fit and not more or none.

Thank you so much! But I need help with the loading screens. Before the last update (April of 2023 or earlier) it all used to work. I used this guide (Custom Loading Screen Tutorial V1.5). And now I don't know, how to adjust them.

Try these:

High Resolution Loading Screens

In this tutorial, you'll find how to get a HD Loading Screen. There's two methods available. ".dds" & ".tga" The one you choose is based on the Warcraft 3 version you have. Users on the Latest Patch can choose between either, although using a ".dds" import is superior as it uses a lower file...
