Sunken City v2.5.0

[rust]

Hi,

I cannot cancel Oris, something wrong with the patch?

I've got exactly this same problem, which sucks because it's game-breaking. You can't progress without using Oris to get the Moonstone, and you can't get out of Oris once you've used him. Any word on when a hotfix for this is coming, or do we just have to be patient and wait until the next major patch? I totally get it if the latter is the case, it must be frustrating to have to fix bugs that you didn't even create, SpasMaster. Thanks Blizzard. ^.^

Im having this problem aswell cant progress.

 

[Akazrael]

For anyone who's having the Oris bug and hasn't checked the Sunken City Discord; SpasMaster is working on it, and as soon as some of the underlying issues with the most recent WC3 patch are fixed, he's said he'll hotfix the map to make it all nice and playable again. So I guess patience is the key. Sit tight and stare unblinkingly at your screens, refreshing every few minutes until the hotfix is up sometime in the next (insert timeframe here). That's my advice, at least. ^.^

 

[huawuzaikair]

Can 2.4.5 be downloaded? Where can it be downloaded? ：vw_wtf：

 

[Khianskhi]

This iss a really good game but i can't play it alone cause of ORIS the Temple Guardian hahaha, i can't go back to my hero after i control him xD i got a Death Knight level 11 on going and i have to leave it nao because i must play it with a friend or with friends

 

[blackovercoat]

So Does + %Pet damage increase summoned unit damage ? im playing with Tidewarrior and murloc build but Pet damage doesnt increase pet damage though.

 

[kazi25]

I always get the Oris bug / Flesh Golem bug whenever I play a saved game that's why I only save after the destroying the gate with the golem.

 

[SpasMaster]

2.4.4c Hotfix has been released.

As of this minor hotfix, Oris and Temple Guardians are no longer required to progress.

 

[Solvarus]

Thank you for this wonderful map, it has been great exploring wc3 again after so many years.

I would like to request a feature for enhanced single player play: would you please allow us to control multiple heroes when in single player mode? I have an unreliable internet connection and would enjoy being able to control a party. I've solo played on easy and normal now and it's totally viable but the experience of being limited to a single hero diminishes the experience.

Secondly it would be great to see heroes with less polished models get an update. The priest and paladin are rather poor looking next to most other heroes for instance.

What does "This effect does not stack on the same item" mean? Does the item(effect) not stack with itself or does the effect of the item not stack with an item with similar effect?

The Berserker's 3rd skill has a W hotkey like the 2nd skill, and when choosing an ability, the W key prioritizes the passive, causing inconvenience when the player wanted to choose the 2nd skill. Also, the tooltips in 2nd and 3rd skills say that the bonus damage is from "Damage" but actually takes from Agility.

Can Elven Stone of the Moon be transmuted?

Can Elven Stone of the Moon be transmuted?

1. It means you cannot stack the item for the effect, as it won't stack.

2. Are you using a different language than English in your Warcraft 3? That tends to be the reason for conflicting hotkeys - also, what do you use to base your assumption that Skull Split and Venomous Axes base their damage on Agility rather than Attack Damage? Do keep in mind his attack damage is increased by Agility.

3. Relics such as the Moon Stone cannot be transmuted.

Hi there.

So iv been playing this brilliant map for a few days now and unfortunately i've come across an issue running version 2.4.0 using Warcraft 3 version 1.24e. The game crashes when loading a save, it ran fine at first but the longer i played the more saves i saved the more often it would crash during save/load. No it wont load at all.

I wont be upgrading my W3 version as i dont like the latest version of widescreen support, i also like to play ROC campaign now and then.

So i would like to try a newer version of Sunken City, however i dont know what the newest version that supports the 1.24e game version nor where to download it as it seems i can only get the latest version here (2.4.4c)


help appreciated.

 

[Neztir]

Solo playing as Berserker, there was a time in the game when I stacked trophies using Skull Split. I noticed that although my damage keeps getting higher, the damage of Skull Split stays the same. It only changes when there is a change in Agility. The damage from the skills is also far too small if they really took additional damage from "Damage". Now, I tested again but only with item that gives additional damage and the damage of the skills did increase. I'm even more confused, does the base damage not count from "Damage"?

Also I don't know where to go after Tidebreaker

I just cleared your report regarding Skull Split with SpasMaster - it might be a bug you encountered, however it is resolved in the next version, as Skull Split got its code remade from the ground up in the current test version.

For your progress after Tidebreaker check out our Puzzle F.A.Q thread, as it holds the answer - Puzzle F.A.Q

 

[Neztir]

Are there special items that shoveling pick can dig?

Can the Skull of Gaskal, Babu's Repair Kit, Temple Tablet, Puzzle Box of the Old Gods be used is some way?

 

[cobonthecorn]

Hey, not sure if this has ever been reported, but I was doing a run today and my hero died and never respawned. We had 24 lives left.

 

[Edy]

Playing it on singleplayer.
Perfectly done. 11/10

 

[Neztir]

Why do so many people like Death Knight? Is he really that strong?

 

[nuck001]

Why do so many people like Death Knight? Is he really that strong?

Because he performs well in single player mode.He could also purchase a unique weapon in the middle of the game.

 

[Neztir]

His dps doesn't seem to be that high and he only gains 1 hp per Q, that is so low.

 

[nuck001]

It's not about dps,it's about surviving.Death Knight could summon tons of minions in order to avoid direct damages from enemies.Besides,Death Grip is powerful in many scenarios.

 

[shekhar9bittu]

Won't the Necromancer be better then? He could summon a lot of skeletons.

 

[nuck001]

Necromancer is my second favorite character,but his skeletons are too weak to stand against bosses' AOE.

The Metal Golem Boss room is bugged, clicking cancel on the robot to take your hero doesn't work (The light essence boss).
Managed to get through it with sheer dps got the Challenge

 

[Elvish]

The DK performs very well on the highest difficulty, even without teammates.

 

[EvilArchmage]

My first message here
The map is absolutely stellar and I've been playing it for a while now. I just wanted to report a couple of things:
1) During a cutscene you can press ESC and have free camera movement, which allows you to scout secrets and unfinished areas.
2) Some Damaging Type effects don't seem to be affected by Damaging Type modifiers, like Crown of Infinity. For example, Crystal Hammer's passive is unaffected.
3) If you have a token, the same token can drop again. And since the new updated I've NEVER seen both tokens at the same time.
4) I don't know if that's intentional, but Jailers get interrupted by attacks from Flametongue Totem, but not my ally or other effects.
5) I remember a hidden passage with a Golem in the Spider Boss area. Is it closed off intentionally as unused content? Or am I missing a way of opening it?
6) I know this is a common complaint, but I just have to mention it. There are a lot of keys and other items that are locked behind RNG-drops from enemies. These are extremely rare and don't have the same value. For example, Skeleton Key is almost worthless, where as certain other secret items are very valuable. Do you have any plans of perhaps locking them behind high-level content or even restrict them to certain difficulty levels?
I'll think of other things at a later time. Thank you for a wonderful map

 

[Edy]

Finished it ono a solo run.
How do you get to these areas.
I have scepter of the king, 3 rubbies and can't open the arena gate.

 

[nuck001]

How do you get to these areas.

Sector A,B and D are not reachable in this version.If I remember correctly,SpasMaster was planning for a PvP area in sector A.

There is a dungeon named Queen's Tomb in sector C.It's weird that you didn't find its entrance.

Oh yea, my bad I really didn't want to go through that one, that's the one with death traps oneshot tiles etc. I just left it - forgot.
So where is this area then? - from the screenshots of the map

 

[nuck001]

I couldn't remember such a pillar.Maybe it's just a doodad adorning the environment.

 

[SpasMaster]

It's a reworked area from the map. It no longer exists as seen in the screenshot.

 

[Edy]

Ahh, I see. I've played it quite a while back many things have changed.
Way back when the sunker ruins tiles were used in the final boos room and the boss had a pitlord model
Anways love what you've done.
6/5


Edit: Will there a sequel be coming along?

 

[EvilArchmage]

Also a couple of things:
1) Queen's Scepter and its recipe have different descriptions.
2) Will Shadow Crystals have more uses added to them? Right now I only need 4 of them for an item, the rest can be spent on tomes.
3) Sunken City is one of the biggest and most polished maps for Warcraft 3. Are there any plans (or is it even possible) to translate the map to different languages? I'm not talking about bookshelves, but in-game descriptions, Talents, Glyphs and the rest.
Also wanted to mention this. If anyone has a 2.4.4b save and cannot progress through the gates because of Oris/Bel'Shan bug, I can assure you it is absolutely possible to beat the entire map and not miss a single thing using some tricks. And if you're playing with a friend, you can even save them if they're stuck controlling a Temple Guardian. I have an entire strategy on that
can't save you if you're controlling Oris though... that's a dead end

 

[nuck001]

Translating a map,even an encrypted one,is not that hard.With the help of some tools,you could extract the map into several parts such as w3u,w3p,w3a,wts and war3map.j,which could be edited by WorldEditor or Notepad.

The real challenge is keeping up with SpasMaster,who updated SunkenCity too frequently in the past.There were some translated versions in different languages from time to time,but none of them is v2.4.4c.Since SpastMaster has been planning a BIG update,I think all translators had better wait for a while until a stable version is released.

Interesting. I didn't even know there were translated versions.
I always wanted a Russian version of the map. While I can understand absolutely everything, my brother is having some difficulties reading Talents, for example. Maybe after the big update (2.4.5?) we'll see some translated versions again.
also one more thing. After reloading the map a couple of times some effects completely vanish. DK's W is invisible, lightning effects are gone. I wonder if that's a problem on my end.

 

[DrHunterZ]

I'm just made an account here to say this: Please consider making this map for WC3:Reforged (if Custom Maps will be a thing). I already love this and 10/10 would play again on the remastered. Cheers SpasMaster, beautiful map

P.S: I've played this map for a while, but today a friend came over and played after some years, still fun as hell.

 

[Restia]

How to make this map can be read in frozen throne? I have move this map into warcraft 3 > campaigns and it's not worked.. When i see the type of the file i change the location of this file to warcraft 3 > maps and didn't happen..

The map needs to be put in your Documents > Warcraft III > Maps folder. If you can't see the map, you might have an old version of Warcraft.



Also wanted to post some bugs here.
1) Rogue can teleport on walls and behind the scenes with his Q easily.
2) The door to the final boss opens when you approach it. You don't have to kill the enemies guarding it and the cutscene won't trigger. It also messes up the quests.
3) I finally found a way to consistently get both tokens. Problem still remains tho. Also more than 2 tokens may drop.
4) You can easily and PERMAMENTLY kill the dummies (not the tank one).
5) Bel'Shan sometimes (a lot of the times) just stops attacking and moving, which makes the bossfight trivial.
6) Final boss has a "Rain of Fire" mechanic. Sometimes it just doesn't work. Your character involunarily moves like a peasant taking damage, but there is no damage. Or fire.
7) I have a feeling that sometimes lifestealing effects don't work. I checked it multiple times by engaging enemies that don't have disables or Curse. Sometimes my hero just starts taking a lot of damage and seemingly cannot outheal it, but green healing text still appears.
8) The boss guarding Twin Corridors key. His Hot Feet challenge is a real pain in the butt, considering his explosions have enormous hitboxes and can sometimes hit you diagonally (???).
9) During my runs saving and loading the game becomes harder and harder. As time goes by it either takes ages to load and quit the game or it just freezes my game completely. Perhaps this is a problem on my end? Or the map is just so crammed full of stuff?
I know some of these might've been reported already. Also some of these are rare. Still I can't check all 167 pages of discussions
Thank you for an amazing map again, Spasmaster.

I know about memory leaks, I was just wondering if it can be fixed in any way. I have 8gb of RAM and by the end of Sunken City Warcraft3.exe takes up 6.5gb! To be fair it's not a problem with Sunken City, I tested it with different maps and some of the bigger ones cause this as well. How can I fix this though?

 

[blackovercoat]

i remember i used to have a leaf to awaken ancient but i dont remember where it is can someone help me ?
and also is king bloods is a random drop ?

 

[Porkiz]

i remember i used to have a leaf to awaken ancient but i dont remember where it is can someone help me ?
and also is king bloods is a random drop ?

Kina the opposite, king's blood is a quest item that is obtainable, whereas the leaf is a random drop. I do believe that the leaf drops mainly in the first area, as well as the skeletal key, but that is ofcourse based on my experience.


I also seem to struggle with something very specific and that is.... the "rarest key" that opens a door(right door, next to the other door opened with the dragon aspects) to a supposedly legendary item, which if not mistaken is a random drop but I have never encountered it. Anyone has more info on this topic ?

I've only seen this key twice so I can't provide anything specific. I guess the name speaks for itself - this key is extremely rare. Haven't encountered the object that interacts with Obelisks, lol. I don't know if Magic Find affects these special drops, cause I've been dedicating a Glyph slot just for that.

does anyone know what is this item do ? it drop from a mobs

That's the exact thing we were discussing earlier. This will activate the Ancient fight. You'll find him were he belongs - near a bigass tree.

thanks you , i always play the old verison i don't know there have a Ancient i meet it and find out forget to deleted my post

 

[Skopetski]

any update on the next patch? im fucking stoked my man

 

[SpasMaster]

I have 4 heroes (out of the total 21) remaining to adjust to all of the things happening in the current version. I am working on one of them as we speak.
I know I may have been saying this a lot, but real life tasks and chores have been the major dent in my work in the past 2-3 months which happens to be the period when I've done the least amount of progress on 2.4.5.

I will get to the end eventually. I am around the final corner, but there are still some more things that need to be finished.

On a side note, I am not really stoked about the release of Regorged.
As I have been looking at the map in the Reforged Beta, it doesn't look so good and I am pretty sure many things will need to be fixed for that as well. But, that will happen after I release 2.4.5, so it won't delay my release.

I just hope that Reforged will not diminish the -year and half- of work I've put into this version.

Hello friends!! Please tell me what to do with Zarash, is such a black naga?
