~Sverkerman's Professional Terraining Thread~

[Sverkerman]

~Introduction~
Good day. My name is Adrian and I am one of the best terrainers known to Warcraft 3.

~Facts~
*I've been map making for roughly 7 years.
*I am capable of terraining without stop for up to 21 hours.
*I am 17 years old and got loads of free time.

~Pictures~

Press me!

*Not done! (glow not added)*

New Terrain (2011-07-08)

Magic City

~Hiring~
To hire me you need to:
*Be able to keep yourself motivated and promise that your product will be published in a range of 2 months after the terrain is finished.
*You must have access to Skype.
*You must be able to record the progress of your project with voice documentation and show the progress in public by publishing the video and showing it in a map developing thread well formed with the use of BB codes.


To put it simple, I will not terrain for any 4/5 projects with undedicated project members not having the resourses required to create a good map.


If you are interested you can add my on skype (Zorenas_Adrian), I got a microphone and I'm online all the time while I'm at my computer.

If you got any questions or statements to make feel free to post.


Lastly, why would I do this for you on my free time?
I am dreaming of becoming a professional terrainer, working in a game developing team together with other employes. Creating terrain on Warcraft 3 will increase my terraining skills.

 

[rysnt11]

At last, someone capable enough to do this hard task!
Hope you luck with this terraining workshop..

I also run a terraining workshop, feel free to drop by

 

[Sverkerman]

I saw, but you aren't that good really.

 

[rysnt11]

Yeah..

So, i stopped it for a while, and start to modelling, still, the terraining workshop run

Btw, can you help me?
As a freelancer? (in the forum of course, so you can still work on this workshop)

 

[Vengeancekael]

*Be able to keep yourself motivated and promise that your product will be published in a range of 2 months after the terrain is finished.

i do not understand, can you explain pls, thank you

 

[Sverkerman]

Well, I will not terrain for anything that will not get published/finished. That is basicly what it says.


Rysnt11, what do you mean?

 

[rysnt11]

Well, help me in my terraining workshop, currently thw is lack of great and nice modeller like you
What i want to say is, can you take some of the pending request of my terraining workshop?
You still can apply your rule to the requester

 

[Sverkerman]

Sure you can advertise me in your thread and/or send your people to me. That would work. I could then add "In cooperation of Rysnt11" in this thread.

 

[rysnt11]

Hmm..
i don't like to ads-ing..
So..
I'll add you as one of 'freelancer' terrainer

Many maps almost abandoned, could you take a look at the pending request?
the post made by brambleclaw musn't be so far from the last post made in my terraining workshop

 

[Sverkerman]

Tell him to come here, I can't be bothered looking in your pending requests.

 

[Exavier00]

Wow your awsome.... Now I'm a fan of your works... nice LMAO...

 

[Sverkerman]

Thanks man!
EDIT: So anyone that needs some terraining for their WC3 map? No one has requested yet.

 

[Peacehagen]

Skywall Dungeon Map

So as you know I have started working on a Campaign with your friend helping with terrain. But this one map is one I am concerned about if its possible to make. The Skywall Dungeon.

Size: 160x160 should be large enough.
Tiles: Use whichever fits, import if you like. You can either try and follow the look of the WoW version, or make up your own. Just know that it is a Fortress up in the sky which imprisons Air Elementals

When it comes to this project, it probably wont be finished within 2 months. I am also missing a Triggerer for this project atm, but me myself can make some simple triggers and atleast make it work.
Also, since it is a campaign with 7 maps, 2 months is really hard to make it in, but I can keep you updated with the progress if you like.

I understand if this is not a request you would accept, but if you have free time and just want to help it would be much appreciated. It is quite a small map to make anyway

I've added a little picture with the layout of the map

 

[Sverkerman]

Got skype?

 

[Peacehagen]

Yeah, but mick aint working, gonna fix new soon, but we can use the chat for now if that is fine with you?

 

[Sverkerman]

*Now working with Peacehagen*

I am tho capable to taking on yet another project without any problems what so ever so feel free to send me your requests!

 

[Rector23]

Well, seeing as that rysnt seems to be working his thread all alone, i will order the map here BUT not yet, as rather to give you daily updates of the map i will first finish the intended things for the first version of the map WHEN they're done, and if you feel like its worth your time, will ask the terrain from you .

Unless Rysnt picks up my request by that time. I am not in a hurry for the request to be done but it would be nice to have it prior to adding in the systems for my map. However, am quite busy as i am also a part-time writer and i am in charge of keeping one site up to date to one game out there, which sometimes seems hard. That means that the time to finish the map after you have done the terraining will be a lot longer than just 2 months. This also means it will take me some time before i can give you anything real as i have so far done only a small part of everything.

No access to skype and i rather wouldn't bother getting it. If there's another way you'd want to communicate, do tell.

 

[Sverkerman]

My terraining skill is in my honest opinion not even compareable to Rysnt's.

However, as it seems you are not interested in using the program of my choise, Skype, for communication via the project members. Therefore I will have to decline.

If you happen to be willing to download Skype I might accept.

Until then, Good luck!

[Sverkerman]

The account which you are replying from is not the owner of that workshop. I will only obey that order if it comes directly from the owner of the workshop.

 

[rysnt11]

I'm here,
Don't adsing, see our discussion at the first page i said that i didn't like to adsing...

 

[Sverkerman]

Post removed.

 

[rysnt11]

Thanks

 

[Deolrin]

Excuse me, but the best terrainers on the Hive are people like ~Void~, FamousPker49, fladdermasken, raid1000, M0rbid, Keiji etc. I am yet to see you win a single contest, let alone score 2nd or 3rd.

 

[Sverkerman]

Not interested.

 

[Deolrin]

Not interested in what? Contests?
Well then... You can't claim to be among the best. :X

To be honest, your terrain looks rather bland, and messy.

 

[Skycraft]

I have to agree with Deolrin (FOR ONCE).

It looks like you just got random doodads, put them in your map, threw them around with some water and terrain and called yourself a professional.

The only decent ones are the 'New Terrain', the first few ones don't look half bad.
But you are FAR from being one of the best.

 

[Sverkerman]

I did not ask for your opinion. The terrain which I create is playable, the ones you refer to are not.

 

[Deolrin]

*Cough cough*.
Please, stop being so arrogant. We're just telling you that claiming to be 'among the best' when there are terrainers that are much better than you around is... Rather naive.

 

[M0rbid]

I would never refer to myself as one of the best terrainers for wc3, that is rather silly and is not right at all. So seeing your work, I doubt that it fits you aswell. Also the fact that your terrain is playable won't change the fact. But whatever, there is no reason for you to get rude when people are pointing out that you missed a few terrainers in your decision on who the best terrainers are.
So if you do not ask for an opinion, you should not post those provoking descriptions aswell.

Fact is, there are legends of terraining and you and me are not, so it would be modest not to call you one

Just a heads up

 

[Sverkerman]

I'm seriously starting to doupt this forum now a days.

I'll get this thread closed, this is not what I intended it to be.

 

[M0rbid]

That is not the intention I had with this post.
I really do support your motivation to help other people.
I was just underlining that unnecessery and unjustified arrogance is leading you nowhere.

 

[LordDz]

I am the best mapmaker in the world.
Period.
Seriously, get your head out of your ass and be polite to people, you will get nowhere being an ass

 

[Bugz]

I am the best mapmaker in the world.
Period.
Seriously, get your head out of your ass and be polite to people, you will get nowhere being an ass

that doesnt help anything... Period.

 

[Latecat]

if one claims to be the best, one should accept criticism.
no, seriously. Where as your stuff is far better than mine ever will be, id still say that those arent exactly 'the most legendary of all warcraft 3 ever created'.
Id agree with Deolrin now and go do something else.

 

[Sverkerman]

To begin with, Morbid you and I got no problem here, I respect you 100% and you do not make me depressed/annoyed what so ever, I rather look up to you on this forum due to your highly constructive comments.

To you other, less interesting people:
This post was purely made for me to get some work on my hands. I did not make this post to get messages saying "TROLOLOL SVERKERMAN UR NOT THE BEST TERRAINER TROLOLOL!!!?!!11!!"

... I never claimed to be the best, I claimed to be one of the best and I got my reasons for making such a statement. If you disagreed that is your opinion, but I only listen to thus opinions which are worth listening to, and that would be people with 1000+ posts. However if that is the case I do not care about since this thread was not made as a showcase for you to comment on. Posting agressive, none constructive comments wont improve anyone's day, but thanks for wasting your own time and if we are lucky, reputation.

I find it funny how someone commented on my murloc city since it was far from the final version. It lacked glow and some other details which I would like to include.

Finally to LordDc, I am cold hearted when it comes to my passion. If this doesn't fit you there is a ignore list for a reason. Watch out with what you say to people since I have yet another passion in my life, reporting abusive and destructive behaving forum users to admins.



All insulting comments has been reported to an admin for further investigation.

 

[Wazzz]

im not letting you terrain for my map
voice documentation sounds super lame
you let that poor, poor person wait for a response while you took screenshots of your new terrain
this is just not what im looking for, i am seeking a more stable relationship with someone who likes me for me
it's not you, it's me

then why bother writing a message? if you doesn't want him to make terrain for you, why reply?, idk but thats cruel..

 

[Wazzz]

because i have 1000+ posts that's why

 

[Sverkerman]

Wazz is totally right, I do not seek relationships between me and the developer therefore it would be pointless for me to work with Wazz since he/she is looking for a terrainer where they have some kind of friendly relationship towards each other.

Just a simple question remains then...

Why bother posting?

EDIT: Well that wasn't a opinion, that was more of a statement... Why should I be bothered?

 

[Wazzz]

BECAUSE!

i AM working on a current project, and REALLY REALLY SUCK at terraining. 2 months after the terrain is done can actually pretty much be guranteed, as the terrain is the bulk of the work that remains. I do have access to skype, the only thing i'm questioning is a voice documentation, but if you point me to a program that enables me to do this with relative ease, i'll be willing to do it.

HOWEVER

it is an rts style gameplay! with squads! and very very WEIRD GAME MECHANICS.
but i will be able to outline them more if you wish

EDIT: NO NEED. i have a THREAD

 

[Devine]

I have 1000+ posts. Will you listen to my opinion?

 

[Sverkerman]

Sure will.

 

[Wazzz]

have you checked out my thread yet sverkerman?
and no relationships i promise

 

[Ketsuno Anson]

Post ain't everything,just like how old you are don't affect your maturity

 

[Devine]

Sure will.

Well, my advice to you is to add more green and red in your terrains because they lack green and red.

 

[Sverkerman]

Which ones specificly, Devine?

 

[Devine]

Which ones specificly, Devine?

The last one is the only one with a somewhat balanced spectrum, only it needs more green. The first 2 lack a lot of red. They're too far in the negatively charged green range. Addition of respectively red or yellow might solve that. But I'd go for red. Most of the time an unbalanced spectrum adds to a certain atmosphere but this is just out of phase.

As for the composition of the pictures, you're going to have to work on that. The props could have been placed better from an artistic point of view.

You also need to add a little "brempance". Which basically means that you need to balance the belt out a little.

 

[Sverkerman]

I got a pretty good counter to that.

To begin with, basicly what you are trying to state here is similar to:

Mike: Yellow is the most beautiful color.
Eric: No, you are entirely wrong Mike, blue is actually the most beautiful color.
Mike: but...
Eric: SHUT UP!


This terrain is not a picture. If I wanted to make it a picture it envolves into what I would like to call a "unplayable map". A map simply created for art purposes. The photos which you view here are not made for overview settings. It was created for a First-Person game being developed right now. However I did not mention this so it would be unfair to use as a counter.

Thx for the constructive critism, +rep.

 

[Deolrin]

I believe the situation we have here is "Trollimus Classicus". Basically, Devine comes in, says some troll random bullshit, and Sverkerman follows him like a blind rat.
Also Devine, I'm sorry for ruining your fun. I'm trying to
