I'm always up for new TDs! Looks very similar to White TD. I'll post a review after I play it :)
Nice! You're right, that's a remake of White TD. But I've found its mechanics can be too complicated for people (no one reads hints I suspect :confused:2 )
Was forced to add a casual mode with towers auto-casting and even auto-targeting (in certain rounds) and do huge enemys' nerf.

Can you provide evidence that you tried contacting the original author(s) before editing/remaking his/her/their work?
Seems advanced and improved enough to be different but they layout is pretty much the same.

Some icons look passive but they are active like the one for upgrading the Poison Tower. You can make them look properly with: Button Manager v1.8.2 Similarly, lots of passive tower ability icons look active instead of passive.
Upgraded towers look the same; could be nice to increase their size or change their colour, something.

Pending.

  • 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.

Specifically?
If you're talking about the original map, White TD - well, then, here I am, the original author. My nick was gg_2_you), but I've lost my e-mail, so I have no access to my old accounts long time ago. What exactly do you need to prove that I'm - me?

Yeah, I have this tool. But you're the first one who complains about icons. For acid (former toxine) tower - it's a first complain back from 2011... But most of the icons you've mentioned are the original WCIII icons, I assume. Is that.. legal?

Upgraded towers look the same
Not exactly the same, the color and scaling are quite different. At least to my eyes... The color changes will require some additional triggers lines. What exact towers types you suggest to resize\recolor? And what is the approximate range of the change step should be?

If you can prove you are that person, your accounts will be merged. Multiaccounting isn't allowed anyway.

I'm not saying it's illegal. I'm saying you could polish things if you want to.

Might be me but the Orc looking tower looks the same to me on every upgrade.

So, how one can make such proof? My e-mail was deleted a long time ago. And ofc. I can't remember the password 10 years after. I still have the access to discord and w3reforged.com accounts, but I don't think it can be counted here. Unprotected map file have died back in 2011 with my old HDD.

Yup, I'm into polishing, just asking if editing of blizzard's icons can cause any troubles...

I just did a quick check. There's barely anything left to verify that Helheim is the owner. Perhaps if the war3map.wtg file is removed in the uploaded versions but he has the one without protection that could prove ownership?
Like I said, the unprotected map file lost in 2011 when my HDD have died... The only thing that comes into my mind - if someone here have mailed me back in 2011 he could check me via Email owner's name.

Finally back from vacation.
The new map version is ready. Have fixed mismatching icons and towers color\scale. Have to redo half of the triggers to increase endgame FPS.
Hopefully, the owner is legit.
Ofc I am!
Let's be honest. Noone other than the original creator would spend hundreds of hours on a remake of not the most popular map.
WorldEditor save count... 9031 :eek:2

I've got reports about game crashes from those, who play Reforged graphics.
To avoid this, the Red player can type -woff. This command turns off weather effects, which seems to be the game crashing problem...
Please, let me know if this solution has helped you (or not).

v 1.09 ready!
  • Have to remove weather at all to stop Reforged graphics crashes.
  • Have to limit towers number by 110 per player to prevent end-game slideshow.
  • Since the number of towers is limited, to compensate for it, I've added 2 new upgrades: double the tower's abilities chance to proc and increase all non-chaos tower's attack range.
  • Various errors were fixed.
P.S: Would be nice to have some feedback about end-game performance, if possible.

Great polish - each player has a blood mage siphoning magic from the Sunwell. I hosted on medium difficulty and it was difficult, at least the defeat cinematic was enjoyable to watch.
Oh, thank you!
It seems that micro control necessity is the main obstacle for players here.
I've made it significantly less critical for Novice difficulty, but it appears to do little to help cause people are starting to explore the map with Easy or Medium
Perhaps I may have to nerf Easy and Medium difficulties as well, by towers auto-targeting.
Would be nice to have feedback and suggestions on what should be changed!

v 1.15 ready!
  • Higher difficulties are locked to avoid first-timer vs. Insane frustrations. 3+ completed boss rounds are required to unlock the next difficulty level.
  • Decreased max. possible time between rounds; decreased player's spells cooldowns.
  • 10% fewer towers, 10% fewer creeps, less towers attack speed, more towers attack damage (should save some FPS).
  • Alchemy Tower's "Greed" now works on leaked creeps in the co-op (should help non-red players to come back).

I've played this game 10 times in a row, and it got worse each time. The main problem with the game is that you have to build very specific towers in a very specific order, or else you die. I'm not sure I am a fan of this, as it takes away from the game's fun aspect, making it lame to play. I keep dying at random levels just because I didn't build that one specific tower or because I didn't do that specific upgrade at the exact level I needed it. On one level I kill all units just fine, and on the next level, I don't kill any units. What is this? I was playing on easy as well. The furthest I've got is level 20.

Another weird thing, sometimes my towers get a damage debuff right off the bat when I start a game and sometimes they don't get it, very bizarre.

Funniest shit ever, even after I did everything right, I still died at lvl 20, built every tower, made every upgrade, targeted his portals, etc. still couldn't kill the boss, Sorry but this is just bad design, and this is supposed to be on easy mode.

Thank you for your honest review!
I agree that the map design may be overly complicated in some parts.

However, the building order still has some alternatives. Yup, the Apothecary is the best builder assistant to start with (cause of Alchemy Tower's gold bonus). But aside from that, various builds should work, as long as you have enough slowing and anti-spell casters stuff.
I keep dying at random levels
I assume the non-boss rounds may be difficult due to frost armor /inner fire creeps' buffs.
One can plant a Cannon Tower's EMP mine into the creep caster pack, so their mana and buffs are gone.
Or use the Arcane tower to dispel these buffs.
Or get some upgraded (Tier II-III) Plague Towers and Cannon Towers (Incendiary Bombs mode) - their spell damage ignores the creeps' armor.
Or get a combination of these variants.

I still died at lvl 20
As for Round 20, as far I understand, the trouble was in Inferno that won't let the boss hit points fall below 30%
One can use the Citadel's Silence spell to stop the Inferno's healing spell casts and try to nuke the boss (that silence lasts 30 sec).
Or just kill the Inferno first and then finish the boss.

sometimes my towers get a damage debuff right off the bat
Indeed, each subsequent difficulty level has one of four random creep buffs or tower debuffs. Their purpose is to add some variability and slightly alter the proportions of different tower types.

If you have any suggestions on what specifically needs to be removed/weakened/added/strengthened - please let me know!
Or maybe you could send me a replay, so I can figure out what exactly I have to nerf.

For now, it seems I should make the towers auto-target the Inferno for easy mode as well.
