Stargate Universe:The Adventures of Destiny

[bomblader]

The original idea can be found here: StarWarCraft

I am in need of skilled modders with enough interest in this project to spend some of their spare time to work on it.


General Requirements: One of the big Instant Messaging Clients (MSN, Yahoo), I'll probably just choose the one most people have.

Download the map listed above and look at it to make an idea about this map! That map is unprotected and actually i'm trying to speak with the maker of the StarWarCraft to let me to create a map starting from his idea.

The map will have 2 big game-play types:
The ships which will be controled by the player in a huge universe. And the planets... From the ship he can deploy units to the planet.

In StarWarCraft pathable planets don't exist but i will insert them here.

A group of scientist found a way to dial-up an adress with 9 symbols at the stargate. They will go through the gate.(Here cinematic is required) They will inspect the place and will see that they are on a space ship: Destiny. From this moment they will try to dial-up the adress of the Earth but they will fail. The actions begins.. They go to different planets to get resources and to find technologies. They will meet hostile alien races and will fight against them.(Alien races will be controled by players). The end will remain unknown for players, i will not post it even after the map is finished, so the players will meet hard missions maybe impossible. The universe is HUGE!

256x256 map size(Reduced from 480x480 because was laggy)

Sorry for the bad english.I will correct the post after the map will be released. The story can be found in the map quest menu too.
As soon players will apply, as soon map will be in the BETA phase!

Ok.. one more small chance

 

[Miss_Foxy]

Sorry that you were offended but, apparently you're a little wrong about The Hive Workshop being

Full of lazy people who stay with finger in the nose.

There could be several good reasons why your post wasn't answered instantly, one of which is because the people might have to take some time to check your post. Also, if you'd need anyone to help you, I'll be glad to be a Part Time Triggerer.
Don't be upset, there are people out there to help you, all you need to do is be patient

PS: Would you prefer JASS or GUI Triggering?

 

[bomblader]

Miss Foxy thanks for your help. I uploaded the post.
almost 50-60% of the terrain in finished. I will PM you soon to get additional informations.

 

[Miss_Foxy]

Here's A Little Secret . . .

Okay
There actually is a way that might attract more people to join your project, would you want to know it?

If you do:
First off, you should put up all that 'StarWarCraft' stuff from the Link into a post. (Preferably the first post of this thread)
Next, it would be nice of you to include some Colored, Bolded, Underlined or Italic(ed) Text into your post, in order to make it more attractive.
You might want to consider Enlarging or putting the Key Points/Headings in CAPITAL Letters.
Once you're done with that, you might want to label certain Points of your Map Introduction, like Numbers (1., 2., Etc.), Letters (A., B., Etc.) or even Hyphens (-, Etc.) to further enhance the user's reading experience.
Also, it is advised that you could divide your Post into different Sections (In or Out of Boxes) like the Introduction, Characters, Storyline, Spells, Important Stuff and Other Such Things. This would make it easier for people to look through the Map Information.
You might also want to include Pictures, Videos or any other Media that could help give Members a feel of how your map is like. A Content Page would be nice for easier navigation.
Lastly, any adjustments and extra information should also be added along with it to notify Members about anything. You might want to end off with a "Thank You" too

Finally, I bid you good luck in making this map, and I hope it will turn out to be a widely enjoyed Map!

Note: Also, you might want to refrain from being offensive towards The Hive Workshop, this might lead to a Negative Reputation from some of the Staff Members or defame the Map.

PS: Here's a +Rep of encouragement! I hope you'll make the necessary adjustments

~ Foxy

 

[bomblader]

of course i want:d

 

[Miss_Foxy]

That's kind of all I know about introducing a Map (Read my previous post), so enjoy yourself!

 

[bomblader]

Post edited thanks for advise miss

 

[Miss_Foxy]

You're welcome! I'll try to see what I can do with the spells...
May I be a Grammar Checker too please

PS: I got a huge shock when I saw the changes, no offence

 

[bomblader]

[bomblader]

ACdestinydream thank you for the help. You are accepted.

 

[bomblader]

Post edited. Read description again.

 

[ACdestinydream]

o.o so im a terrainer now?

 

[Deleted member 177737]

~Main post edited this comment has been updated

1.) The series is good (gotta catch up on 15+ episodes lol...) so I expect this map to be just as good.
2.) The idea is also good, will you be able to go and explore every single planet on the map?
3.) Why is Luke Skywalker in a screenshot? lol...
4.) Will the map have a dialing system?
5.) The terrain looks cool, I like the mixed colors.

-I rate the preview 3/5 (didn't see any units or that yet =/)

 

[bomblader]

Can you edit the main post and get rid of all the dark blue? (Makes it impossible for me to read anything =/)
~I'll update this when I can read ur post

ok updating..

 

[ACdestinydream]

please update the screenshots. anyway, me and bomblade did an epic terrain. it involves height variations for stars and nebula so its as good as that your cruising through the stars/ nebula! it will be very exciting =D

 

[bomblader]

1.) The series is good (gotta catch up on 15+ episodes lol...) so I expect this map to be just as good.
Yep. It will be epic
2.) The idea is also good, will you be able to go and explore every single planet on the map?
Yes. You can explore every planet from the map.
3.) Why is Luke Skywalker in a screenshot? lol...
I don't have the model Destiny yet, so i made a random unit to explore the universe.
4.) Will the map have a dialing system?
Well i'm not sure about this. It's hard to make something like a dialing system because:
1.Newbies how didn't saw the TV Show won't know how to dial.
2.The dialing symbols aren't too hard to make but will be very hard to be memored by players, even if the adresses are wrote in a Quest dialog or something.
3.A small chance is to make a Dialog Box to appear on a command which will ask the player for first symbol.. then for second.. bla,bla.. More details will be published later.
5.) The terrain looks cool, I like the mixed colors.
Yep. And will be epic... It's just a preview from the last idea but we renewed it


So the biggest problem is the Destiny model missing....

 

[Deleted member 177737]

A destiny ship model wouldn't be hard to make =/ The only hard thing would be anims and textures.

 

[bomblader]

i saw your resources...
can you made the destiny model?
the models are pretty good with nice textures.

If you finish the map I'll make the model (no anim's though).

 

[bomblader]

c'mon guys need some triggerers and modelers

 

[ACdestinydream]

here are the new screenshots of the map, check it out!

 

[bomblader]

A new screenshot
Well, now it's the ship:O
hope you like it
Just the terrain, many things will be added later.

 

[Deleted member 177737]

The ship terrain looks good, but wouldn't it seem more realistic if you made the stargate room (on the ship) as a main room and then have corridors with partial side rooms that teleport you on entering to the room (this would make it seem larger than what is currently shown).

 

[Krl70]

wouldn't it be better to use another kind of cliff, like the sunken ruins? and if you make the corridors go another way, like twisting around in some rounds and with some rooms the ship will rquire more space, but appear much larger larger, atleast from my point of view, anyways, i can't wait until it's finished.

 

[efsfdison]

When will it finished?

 

[bomblader]

I proudly announce that the Alpha Version of the map will be released on 01.08.2009(this Sunday)
The alpha version will have limited acces to commands and just 4 planets.
If someone want to test it can create a post here and send me a PM with his MSN/Yahoo id.

Yayoi could you make the Destiny Model please? I'd appreciate.

 

[Deleted member 177737]

Ok I'll start working on the model, might take a week or so to finish it (Textures are the hard part xP.)

BTW any preferences on what it should look like or how detailed I can make it, Because I gotta know b4 I start?

 

[bomblader]

well, take a look here

Thanks for help
