Please don't use Maps as a testing ground. Here is where to do it: Map Development
Do you have permission from the author to edit/upload?

A credits list in the map description with the names of the authors whose resources you've used is mandatory. That includes models, skins, icons, custom spells, systems. Also, sounds, music and everything outside this site.
This helps you with the models, skins and icons from Hiveworkshop: Resources in use by Test of Survival BETA
You can also upload your map here to generate a list: Asset scanner

Any big difference from this one?

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.

Hi, yes:

As for the map, it is now in a playable stable Version and Players can play it co-op.
Rare bugs might still appear but its 95.55% done.

Edit: Yes it has big differences, it's a custom hero survival with various different aspects in gameplay and mechanics.

My friend and I tried playing co-op but the host keeps crashing before we play the game. The game loads in at 75% and then proceeds to crash the host while the second player comes in playing catch-up.

Yeah this seems to be a huge issue in the current version, i have to check on where it causes trouble. Maybe i overload warcraft 3 while the Loading screen is trying to catch up with all "map init" events.. I'll upload version 10 when it is fixed, sorry.

17.04 Edit: The newest Version 9 is now even more stable, it was a calculation per Player culprit that caused desync in many cases.
It may happen from time to time still, that's on blizzards netcoding side tho. Sadly i can't patch that
If you still experience Desyncs one after another, let me know.

That's nice, could you have the whole question and answer for the permission uploaded in the map thread description as evidence since that reply could be to anything?

the map is really fun. been reaching week 10 a few times with a friend, quite a nice map. would like to see a color indicator for what mobs are super buffed (i just died to 2 skeletons, i focused one of them down and that one had 8k damage and the other had 27k) other than that, would love a searing arrows like ability maybe. it could scale the mana cost with your spell power to keep it balanced? idk, glgl

Neat and pretty much creative use of core gameplay mechanics with randomization, multiplayer and customization.
However, there are some caveats like life steal no working on ranged units (doesn't seem to work on the Bone Collector).

Approved.
