Sounds interesting, but you need to add A LOT more details about it, how its gonna play out, stuff like that. Also, you said that the terrain is done, but from the pics, that doesn't look done to me. I lacks a ton of doodads. Put more flowers, grass, rocks, terrain formations and that sort of thing, not just trees. If you polish up some of the flaws, I'm sure that map will turn out awesome.

 

[43berries]

Tons of dodads? I'm using 10,000 dodads already. And think about it if you really do over do it, like world of warcraft does not splat in dodads every other two inches, that's just plain ugly. Thats the mistake other map makes do. They think randomly placing bushes every other two feet is attractive, well it's not. It takes a certain artistic non-empirical thought process to make good terrain that's sufficient. I'll try to add more detail. Okay let me explain further on the game play. You'll have a spell book dummy spell list which gives you all the skills you can do; 11 in all so far. So instead of a laggy dialog system I have a system that's smooth and lag free. Also the dynamic war system works like this: There are two warring factions. Now throughout the whole game, there's a linear plot you can play out. If you do then you can help decide the fates of the battles. If the Imperial Magistrium Forces loses, then the Federation will take ground and if you don't defend they'll have most of all the map and will kill off all the vendors. Plus it's extremely hard when they all have rifles, mortars, armored steam tanks, artillery and automatic weapons. Yes it's still based with a steam-punkish atmosphere but I wanted a twist. I will try to make the enemy AI normal opponents/elite opponents move and use different tactics when they're presented with certain scenarios. Most items will be probably be create-able and some items will be only gained through creating. I am also hoping I can add in a honour system.

 

[Supermj]

You type a lot easily. And it's nice to se you put this up too. (+rep for effort and time)

 

[Super-Sheep]

So it is Humans versus Orcs?
Can you play with both factions?
And is it 448x448 (WEU-Enchaner) epic scaled ORPG?

Well its good to hear that we can maybe have another rpg than The Black Road (TBR). I hate TBR.

 

[43berries]

No not 448x448 standard epic. To answer your second question: The war exist between two major empires. The first one is the Holy Imperial Magistrium. The head of the empire is the humans, the part of the empire is the elves, dwarves, orcs, night elves, high elves and goblins. The other warring faction is the Federation. Composed of all men and a Republic, unlike the empire which has a Magistrius Prime Minister which is more of the powers of a king. The war started over political territory of a colony that was nuetral full of half-demons. And maybe, I'm not sure yet about playing both factions.

 

[~Void~]

I love it when people make up random elf-sounding names... Meh, sounds like a fun game

 

[43berries]

Why thank you. I'm current feeling lazy and making items at a slow process. 900 seems alot, and I have account all of them for save/load + looting.

 

[The_wand_mirror]

Rename it to 'Uber Orpg'

 

[43berries]

Why?. =p???

 

[Ghost-]

Because it is Über thats why, and can it be hosted at B.Net ?`Because it sounds cool, what about more screenshots ?

 

[43berries]

Yes it can and sure:

 

[Supermj]

Hmm... a lot more is done since las time I played with you *shock*...

 

[l2aziel]

I love the screnshot with the Sacrifical pits, the acolyte, and the warlock. The flames coming up from the pit are just amazing.

I don't like the overhead view though, you should have a close one, that way the buildings seem realistic.

 

[43berries]

Well there's a problematic issue with FPS or close three person view. The camera collides with targets.

 

[Supermj]

What if you made the camera targeted point behind the unit, and then adjust hight according to height from ground. That would be a simple trigger that would work by itself to prevent collision with targets. The only problem is it would lag...

 

[43berries]

No not if you account for all the variables and destroy them. But I don't know how to destroy variables.

 

[Supermj]

I know how to remove points

call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint)

You'd put that as a custom script. TempPoint being your name of variable, and capitals DO apply as they are.

 

[43berries]

Would that be an universal command?

 

[Supermj]

Yeah. I'll give an example:

• Mass Order
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Ability being cast) Equal to Mass Order
      • Then - Actions
        • Set TP = ((Target point of ability being cast) offset by (0.00, 0.00))
        • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 1000.00 of (Position of (Triggering unit))) and do (Actions)
          • Loop - Actions
            • Unit - Order (Picked unit) to Attack-Move To TP
        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TP)
      • Else - Actions
        • Do nothing

TP being my variable. But the R and L in RemoveLocation MUST be capitalized.

 

[43berries]

Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TP) Whats up with the (udg)

 

[Supermj]

"udg_" goes before the variable name
and
TP is my variable representing a changeable point.

 

[43berries]

Oh so the name of the region is after udg_?

 

[Supermj]

not region, variable. Got to trigger panel, and search set. There should be a set variable. Youcan create variables there. Make one titled TP that is a point. Then you set TP to the center of a region, or position of unit with offset. The

• Trigger
• custom Script:

is another thing to find in trigger editor. You just put it:

• Trigger
• Custom Script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TP)

The udg_ is saying it's a variable.

 

[43berries]

That's what I meant.

 

[Supermj]

ok. So, you understand? think there is a removal of leak tutorial. If i find it, I'll pm it to you.


EDIT: here http://www.thehelper.net/forums/showthread.php?t=27219 I pmed it to you too.

 

[43berries]

Thanks man... Hmm I think i need to redo the whole terrain though; the underlining issue.

 

[l2aziel]

Argh, I hate terraining, gl...lol

 

[43berries]

I love terraining it's just I'm not happy with this terrain.

 

[Supermj]

lol. You have to finish it before starting over.

 

[43berries]

Eh I guess. But I mean the terrain looks okay or excellent to people, but I want my terrain to be more surreal.

 

[The_wand_mirror]

Cant you make a early version with this terrain? .. i mean doing over a whole terrain is like destroying an entire map (if ur doing it litteraly)

 

[43berries]

It doesn't quite exactly destroy a whole map. It's just reconstruction. Do you think I should redo the terrain?

 

[l2aziel]

Not completely, just redo it a bit.

 

[43berries]

Mmm maybe, if the terrain bothers me a tint more, I'll redo it.

 

[The_wand_mirror]

It doesn't quite exactly destroy a whole map. It's just reconstruction. Do you think I should redo the terrain?

Well.. remaking everything should bring problems .. like when you want things different you have to remove regions etc.

I dont think you should redo the terrain NOW.. you could offcourse make it better i dont bother about that (Who would?XD) but then maybe in later versions?..

 

[l2aziel]

Yeah, i sure am gonna change my terrain around from the first version, worry about it when the terrain really bothers you, or you have nothing to improve on it. (Which shouldn't be possible)

 

[43berries]

It's problematic when the creator feels like his/her terrain is complete rubbish but I'll keep going with this I'll see where it goes.

 

[The_wand_mirror]

Oh yeah, so you mean you are using WEU? because you said you had 10.000/8.000 doodads. So u have to use nolimit i guess. Doesnt this lag? (Online)

 

[43berries]

No it does not.

 

[The_wand_mirror]

When will you release it? or no plans or 'i-think-i-do' 's ?

 

[43berries]

Well don't be an ass eh. Excuse my language, but definitely by 2 months, if not it'll be delayed another half a month due to terrain issues.

 

[43berries]

Public Beta Showing: Two Weeks

 

[~Void~]

I helped you test this :3

 

[Oziris]

The orpg looks great and the terrain is great!

 

[43berries]

Thanks well I had to beef up the terrain a lot.. And void, you'll see the major difference with this public beta showing .
