Thanks.
I might make another movie tomorrow.
But I have to say sorry because I don't need any GUI triggering or object editor help. I'm very good with GUI/object editor things myself but my spells can't be made GUI since they require certain things that can only happen in Jass (things that are needed for certain damage systems).

However I will keep this thread up to date for when I will need help with anything you could possibly help me with.

Thanks for the offer anyway.

Yeah sure! That's a good plan.
However a beta will still take a while
But just keep this in mind and when the beta is done you just give a shout

 

[moosenoir]

Okay i will!

What camera system are you using?

 

[Sephalo]

What camera system are you using?

I'm using RolePlaynGamer's camera system. You can just find it in the spells section. It's great, and I can't make a better one so why should I?

 

[moosenoir]

Can you give a link? cant find it anywhere

There is also one pretty cool camera system by Opossum in wc3c, you should try it in case you havent yet.

Welcome back Ciebron to the Oakwood Forest!

Hey everyone. I need your opinion.

Floating city or city inside a very big tree?

This is the "entrance" to the place where the small city is going to be, but I can't decide if I should make it in the air or in a big tree...

Picture

 

[Gamat]

In a tree

 

[RaiN.]

In the sky.

 

[Hiude]

How about a tree in the sky?

 

[Sephalo]

How about a tree in the sky?

Would be imba But I think I can't make it since the world tree model I'm using has roots that are too big for it. It wouldn't really look natural then. But I will come up with something cool I promise

Oakwood Forest got its own hosted forums!

From now on I will mainly post information there!

boon actually is also noob the other way round.

i pretty much like the map and wait for beta stage.

 

[Sephalo]

All of a sudden my wc3 doesn't work anymore so can't test world editor things anymore. Reinstalled wc3 and same happend again + i cant use world editor anymore because I couldnt repatch yet.
Kinda screwed there.
Going to try and fix it tomorrow to finish this treecity asap

 

[Landmine]

That sucks. This was turning out pretty nicly (though I still havn't seen the ruins that have been promised). Does the game give an error or does it crash or what?

It just doesn't even give a loading screen or whatever.
Let's say I double clicked Frozen Throne icon then it just ignores my "launch" command. My mouse looks like an hourglass for 2 sec but after that nothing happens.
I had some testing issues before that. I couldn't open Wc3 but if I did test map in world editor I could however... After ~20 seconds or after mousing over the minimap, clicking the hero spell learning button or clicking any other interface button like F10 or something, it crashed.
So yesterday I reinstalled wc3 and hoped it would've gone away after a reinstal but it didn't. So I think I gotta reinstall NewGen + Wc3 at the same time and even delete the entire folder and hope that works. Haven't got the time for that now though but I will do that asap.

Edit: Ofc there will come a place with ruins in the map It's just that this elven city inspired me much more. Maybe I will reterrain the undead starting area into something with ruins. (note: "maybe")

The screenshots look great

I made 2 screenshots for you from which object editor things I used.
I basically made a custom bridge/ramp destructible based on the Bridge horizontal model and changed a few things. It also surprised me (since it's the first time I actually made walking doodads/destructibles) but world editor automatically recognized the edges of the model!
Be aware that I still had to make alot of pathing blockers at the edges of the destructibles since else units could just walk off and suddently 'blink' downstairs..
Take a look at this and I think you understand that it's pretty easy.

 

[Palaslayer]

that i know. i guess that you have to base walkable doodads on bridges or elevators since they use a special pathing. so i think about first removing the pathing and then recreating it to have more possibilities to place them.

thx! ^^

Hello everyone.

I released detailed info about classes! I added (atm) 3 spells each class on the forum but they will get atleast (maybe later even more!) 11 spells each.
Take a look at it!

[Sephalo]

Today I worked on this and I'd say it looks quite nice!
It's still unsure if this is going to be what we're going to use to give classes the opportunity to make their characters more unique but it could be an option.
It's a talent system!!

Wow so many awesome RPG's coming out, I'm gonna be busy when this comes out!
Love the terrain, good terrain = a good map, even if the rest of the map is shit, if
it has good terrain, it's ok lol.
Looking forward to it.

News!!!

RaiN has been added to the team as our 2nd triggerer!
From now on he will focus on the spells while Ciebron will focus on the systems.

After a while of terraining I made some youtube movies of the gameplay of the Ranger class, Rune Warrior class and the PvE event Sistra the Forestwatcher. Take a look at the Oakwoodforest youtube account: www.youtube.com/oakwoodforestrpg
