Warcraft III - Fall of Draenor

[Cthulus]

And we didn't even say 'Open' Beta, guys.
So, where are you going to post the tech-tree picture thing when it's done?

 

[Orly_YaRly]

nah, can't do, im going on vacation today
Just take your lazy ass Ala and do it yourself, i know you can

 

[AIagremm]

Fine. But could you send me the full list we made then?

 

[deepstrasz]

I don't really see progress...

 

[AIagremm]

You'll see it soon, I promise

 

[deepstrasz]

I hope. I want to see some implication from the model creators and from the UI drawers as well.

 

[AIagremm]

Hey, thanks for reminding me about UI makers!

 

[Wolfe]

I don't really see progress...

Wow, you people really need to learn to be patient.

A modification doesn't just go "POOF" and suddenly be done. There is a lot to be done, and if you truly see potential in this project, then you should respect the fact that the team aren't going to sacrifice their whole lives to complete it in a few weeks. Rome was not built in a day, you know.

 

[GhostThruster]

End of summer...
There are different people around the globe, can we have a specific date? Where I live right now its winter.

 

[Cthulus]

Since summer lasts about 3 months, it'll be probably four to five months from now. Sorry, kiddies.

 

[mattplaz]

i have one final question about this mod: is it free or not? (just curious)

 

[Linaze]

Of course it is free. Or rather, will be free once it is released (which, I assume, as with nearly all over-ambitious project, is never).

 

[mattplaz]

ok thanks for help

 

[mattplaz]

i have a question
can only blizzard employees make mods for warcraft III, or can a player make one and send it to blizzard?

 

[Deolrin]

Only players can make mods for WC3, and no one is going to send their mods to Blizzard. :/

 

[mattplaz]

...
......
.........
How do people usually start making a mod? By recruiting people to help make it?

 

[Deolrin]

Umm, get a general concept of what they want to do, and then get people to do the stuff they can't do - for example, if you're a modeler, you might a well find some programmer and\or coder.

 

[mattplaz]

ok thanks. If i knew how, i would give u rep debode

 

[mattplaz]

oh nvm. Found out how

 

[AIagremm]

Please dont doublepost. Moderators will -rep you.

 

[indomitable1319]

Waiiit... Isn't every map created a mod already?

 

[rcshaggy]

I'm just curious, but are those worm like enemies gonna be in FoD?

 

[Cthulus]

Which ones are you talking about?

 

[Cavman]

Which ones are you talking about?

Think he means like the sand worms.

 

[AIagremm]

indomitable1319, maps and mods are very different things. Mod is completely editing the game, while map is just a playable... map for it.

Yes they will, but not as big as they are in WoW. They will be smaller, though dangerous and in the normal Draenor can only be found in caves.

 

[Deolrin]

Maps ARE mods.

 

[dab]

Wrong, maps are maps.. Mod, as the name suggest, modifies the game files

 

[Deolrin]

A total conversion is called, surprisingly, 'Total Conversion.

 

[dead-man-walking]

Maps ARE mods.

For one, I agree with Debode. Maps are Mods in literal sense.

 

[deepstrasz]

Only players can make mods for WC3, and no one is going to send their mods to Blizzard. :/

Advertising on Blizzard would be nice.

 

[mattplaz]

.............
Is a mod a map, a whole game, a bonus thing, or what? You guys ar confusing me!!!!

 

[dead-man-walking]

Advertising on Blizzard would be nice.

Har har har. Advertise to Blizzard, get sued, pay royalty.

A Map is always a Mod. But a Mod is not always a Map to put it simple.

 

[deepstrasz]

Har har har. Advertise to Blizzard, get sued, pay royalty.

This mod is like a cover of a song. It doesn't require money to be played. What you said leads me to think that even the creation of a map is law offensive.

Wtf is wrong with the quote sys ?

 

[Deolrin]

You did not close your quote tags.
And Blizzard will probably consider it as an illegal hack of the game, distributing WC3 for free and etc, that's why WC IV: EoE requires a legal, registered copy of WC3 to play.

 

[AIagremm]

Actually they officially allowed players to make mods. And mod cannot be an illegal hack of the game because it is installed on Warcraft 3, thus it is a fan-made upgrade on the official game.

I also like the system EoE has ^^

The mod needs the game to run. It's not our problem the players download/use hacked games.

Thanks for the tip with the quote thing.

 

[rcshaggy]

Just checking, because I want your guy's campaign mod too be enjoyed and liked by many.

 

[Sai'Yamon]

Hey, I've been following your project for some times. I am a music composer and if you ever need an original soundtrack for your mod I can make you one. For free; ofc. Just tell me if you are interested.

PS. I have seen that you already have one, but asking never hurts . I have a musical formation.

Good, let's hear a demo. It should be based on WarCraft's music genre.

 

[AIagremm]

Yes, deepblade is correct, could you please present us with a demonstration of your skills?

 

[mattplaz]

woot I got my first rep that someone gave me from this forum

 

[Linaze]

Someone said a map is a mod, and I must ask you: is a fan-made melee map a mod?

 

[Deolrin]

No, not really.

 

[Sai'Yamon]

I've sent you a PM Algremm with a link to some demo songs.

 

[AIagremm]

ANNOUNCEMENT:
Sadly I will be on my vacation for a week(til 1st August). However I promise that by then I will finish the techtree of the races at last(I am already on the finish stage but I dont want to present anything til I perfected it)

 

[Cthulus]

Yet you're online right now?

Is this going to be a picture or what?

 

[AIagremm]

Well Im leaving tomorrow morning. Yeah, four pictures, for each race.

 

[Cruncher]

Is there any chance that you post your models?
Because i'm making a map and the Ogre Slave and Altar of Might would really help

 

[JokeMaster]

And what? Wait one or two years and you will get your ogre.

 

[Thunderstoren]

when the campaign is ready
