[Sin'dorei300]

申し訳ありません! (sorry!)

 

[shinji]

申し訳ありません! (sorry!)

Haha. Nice. I can speak Japanese because I live in Japan.

もう少し、桜の木を入れましょう。そうしたら、本物の日本です。
(Please add more Japanese cherry trees. Then it will be like the real Japan.)

Back to topic: Any new WIP for the Japanese village?

 

[sonofjay]

Well me and my friend decided to release the map soon, it will have 3 finish villages, working systems, all the weapon types attack system working, but it will have no main story at the moment only side quest and maybe the unlimited quest system working.

Reason:

Damn its hard to finish a damn huge map. So we decided to release it on its alpha stage then just continue the progression while getting some useful feedbacks, but you can't expect it that soon. We still polishing many things.

So you think its a good idea?

EDIT:
@Shinji working on it.

 

[Sin'dorei300]

@SonofJay
Good idea!

 

[shinji]

@sonofjay

It's a good idea.

But I think it's better to release it the EPIC way.

 

[sonofjay]

@shinji, well my main target is to get people to follow my map, since warcraft is losing players day after day after day, so its better if I can grab people who are sure will play the map.

 

[shinji]

@sonifjay

I see. I got your point.

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

I would personally go for something late alpha or early beta.
This way , you wont have to release numerous updates after.

 

[sonofjay]

We're planning to only release new version after major things are applied like many quest and new villages, and not bug fix per bug fix version since its a huge 40mb map.(but still compressing many textures)

40mb for what? Is it a Campaign or an Map? Well, if it is a map that doesn't fit for a size but IDC because the map I created is big I think 10mb+!

 

[sonofjay]

Its a map with a w3x and not w3n(campaign) , and what is the problem with the size?

 

[Situ]

I think if its singleplayer map the size isnt interisting, the point is if the ressources used well and fitting each other (what here is the point !)
and to the mapthing, i think middle/end alpha would be ok, so you can get many feedback and improve much and do not lose your members

It's ok. I've seen a 80mp single player map before. It's just fine to have that size.

Great. It's really good.

 

[Sin'dorei300]

Great!

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Great, but the usual and add some animals there.

 

[Chaosy]

just a tip, when adding creeps/minions/monster it would be a nice thing to give them the "wander" ability it looks more realistic then

[Chaosy]

Unfortunately, hostile (enemy player) units with wander ability are automatically escaping when they receive a single hit.

thats true, but i made a trigger that when a unit owned by neutral hostile is attacked i order (with trigger) the attcked unit to attack back. it solves the problem

Lol. That would be funny if the bunny has 30000 damage.

[Sin'dorei300]

Can i post some ideas for characters?

 

[sonofjay]

I'm not sure about that, Me and my friend are currently working on the major characters for the main story at the moment. We're still far from making those minor characters and extras for some of the side quests etc etc. I'll just inform you when it is time.

Cool character. I'll help him get his revenge. I'll make sure the killer suffers.

 

[sonofjay]

Glad that you liked it.

 

[Chaosy]

Uldric Elvenhisk looks like a rip of legolas from LotR, but I like him I think I will play him once this comes out.

 

[sonofjay]

@Chaosy, nope, Uldric is a wow rip not a lotr rip, its a WoW model that got edited by one of the best wow rip model editor that I know. And yeah, the concept is Legolas.

 

[shinji]

I've felt the pain of the character. I'm so playing this to take revenge to the killer. Will it be released soon?

 

[sonofjay]

Not near not far. I can't give exact time but I'm sure to release a beta(that will be tested first by Ken-E) with complete and working systems, then just keep updating it. Well that is our plan.

 

[zlowly]

1 word i just gonna say "WOW!!!'
if i can rate those model and terrain now i'll give them 5/5 because it's great
the prince
look so cool
and the terrain wow it's like a open world RPG in PS3 and XBOX game terrain this should gonna be very good

 

[sonofjay]

Thanks for the nice compliment, project are going good so far(story wise) if I can get some big break from univ(univ just starts here) then I'm sure I can give more updates. I have lots of great ideas at the moment, just need to get Krad on skype to talk with it.

 

[Lordkoon]

Is the camera-behind-hero optional? From the video you'v posted it looks buggy and twists in really annoyng ways. Also probably it would be best to remove the voice of the hero. It's irritating because in these camera modes you have to click very often to move across the map and the hero voice spam is just horrible.
Also if your main characters will use nice wow models perhaps it would be fitting for the main hero to be having such too.
http://wowinwc3.forumcircle.com/viewtopic.php?t=8861&highlight=rashek Like this fella.

 

[sonofjay]

@Lordkoon, camera is optional, you can disable it, I'll see what I can do on the voice, and the model you suggested, well the main problem is, the animation, it fuck up the model and its a hell out of work to remake all the 255 anims on the model, and oh I know almost all the models on underground and we tried more better models than that.

 

[Allain55X]

Hey,sonofjay. When will this map released? I really loveto play the game now!

 

[sonofjay]

Soon, but not today.

 

[Situ]

Good games need their time, if you wait more you will get more if its out ;D
Nice Models btw your modeller is very good
