Warriors Of Ashenvale

*Project is dead*

 

[Lingonberryjam]

Good Luck mate!

Seems like you've started something you are capable of finishing, and thats whats most important. The terrain looks ok, not better. Although im not a terrainer i still think you need more types of doodads (and a tip when taking screensshots: View -> Sky -> Turn On ).

Keep working on the basics of the game and then add a few heroes (2-4) so you can test it out. Dont start off with the details, thats all i have learned in mapping so far !

.. and btw, you should update this post with more info about the game before a mod starts yelling at you...

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Ok thnx!I didn't know about that sky thing
The post is going to be updated soon when i will create some heroes make the terrain a little better and when some basic triggers are done.

 

[Kixer]

Damn that terrain looks nice,
I liked the area where you don't use War3 cliffs in particular...

Let me know if you need any help with Gameplay Ideas or Triggering...

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

I already told that all kind of help is appreciated.But,first of all i need to finish some things on the map and then you can take it and do everything you want,to make it better!

 

[Xarwin]

First screenshot looks odd

But the rest looks really good.
You should add a sky, so it looks even better!

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

The sky is on.I didn't knew since Lingonberryjam told me.

 

[Lingonberryjam]

If you need ideas for heros i got a whole bunch of them (22 i think) in one of my maps which i dont work on anymore... i can give it to you via pastebin if you'd like.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Yeah that would be really good.But.since it's the first version of the map i don't use any triggered abilities,i just change name,icons etc. of the spells and stuff like this.I want the first version to come up quickly.

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

Looks very nice, good luck with the project. The terrain is definetly above average.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Right now i am creating the heroes of the game.I have already created 1 of them and the one is half-done.So,if anyone would like to share his hero idea with me he could send me a private message.


ANYONE WHO WANTS TO JOIN THE PROJECT CAN TELL IT HERE!!!

 

[Kixer]

Im not looking to join or have a major part in production... But I will offer my services in small bits of triggering help and bug testing and fixing.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Ok!!As i already told every kind of help is greatly appreciated!I had to log in for some days and i have put much work on the map!The map is playable right now,it has only 3 heroes and one half done(i will make heroes when i end with basic triggers etc.)
I will post the map in a few days which is the Beta map,so you can look at it!!!Also new screenshots(with sky)
Thanks for your support!

 

[HeretoDLstuff]

It looks very good, the terrian in great but I think it might be a little bit over done in some places....? Im to busy to help any right now though..

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Ok, the map is in post #1. It's not protected(of course)and you can open it on WE to see my triggers and different stuff.The game needs much more triggering so it would be great for some help.
Plz test the map and send comments in the thread

 

[Yearight]

i like the terrain and the scales in the map

 

[Jacek]

if it isn't like dota, I'm not even going to check it

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

It's not like DotA.I am bored about DotA the game is so old....i wonder why it even continues to be updated....

~Off-topic:I hope Werewulf won't notice your signature...

 

[Bob27]

Well I would agree that the terrain is defiantly above average, so good work with that

One idea I have for something is maybe you could have like team upgrades or something, so one player buys it (would be expensive though), and all of the other players on their team get the upgrade.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

I will see what i can do....At the first versions players can be only carry items....And if you think you have a good idea you can post it here..

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

I need someone to help me with hero-making.Since it's not my favorite part and i am getting bored of it,i would like someone to help
Those who help will be special credited!!!

 

[Dionesiist]

Don't double post and I'd love a post to show all the heroes you currently have. (Maps aren't working for my Wc3 so ja)

 

[Silvenon]

Wow those terrains are cool, too bad I suck at terraining

I need someone to help me with hero-making.

I will send you 4 heroes when I'm done balancing them (and when my sig changes)

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Dionesiist i will post hero screenshots when there are 6+ heroes on the game.
Silvenoon thnx for your help!!

 

[Wolverabid]

I grabbed the map Uchi. and will try to find time to play it! I also added a table to your post, you just need to give each screenshot a name and provide descriptions for them.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Thanks Wolverabid.After you test the map you can tell me if it has any potential...

 

[Xarwin]

I tested your map UchihaSasuke.gr .
I want to point you on the following things :

- REMOVE the echo sounds. It realy ruins the game, and it sounds horrible.
- When your hero died, you can't ressurect it duo cost of lumber / (gold).
- You can select multipline heroes at the start, the tavern should remove all other selectable heroes.
- Your terrain looks terrible in game, but NO offense at it!
The terrain is a mess because of your massive doodads, and the corpses at
the vulcano don't fit. Try making it more realistic. If u place a rock, please use control + page down in order to make it fit. Now the rock is just half floating.
- Add more items.
- Split up the creeps, they're way too close to each other.

> Concept looks good.
> Idea is good.
> Work on , dude!

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

-Sounds will be removed.
-Hero revival system will be made soon.
-I want when all players choose their hero the tavern will be destroyed but i dunno how to do it.
-Why??I will fix the volcano cave.And i didn't knew that thing about the rocks.
-I will make lots of items,don't worry.
-Ok.

>Thnx
>Thnx
>ok

Oh,how much would you rate the map right now??Do you think it has some potential??

 

[HeretoDLstuff]

It looks great, im going to test it as soon as I can, ill post back after I do.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Any idea of how the revival system would be??I am thinking of this:

When the hero dies the level of his revival time will be (level of hero)x3 seconds=revival time.(maximum level is 25).

Or any other ideas.This revival system is the most used so it would be something classic.Any ideas?

And BTW Heero....More bad things tahn good things for map...

 

[Wolverabid]

I STILL haven't managed to shoehorn in the time to test the map for you Uchi.

Craka_J and Heero are way better at that stuff than I am anyway. When do you plan to release the next version?

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

The next version is here!!!Here is a changelog:

HERE ARE THE CHANGES FROM THE PREVIOUS VERSION.


-Finished Dremor the Mud Golem.
-Fixed bounty on Base Defenders.
-Added 2nd Boss on Valley of the Kings.
-Added Revival System.
-You have to choose hero in 3 minutes.The tavern dissapears.
-Some eye-candy and improved terrain.
-New items.(Still few items but more coming)
-Creeps respawn every 65 seconds.
-Gold Per Second.
-1 new hero.

The map is still a Beta.So don't be angry about the 4 heroes :-(

 

[Maximash]

Looks pretty good, i like the terrain and stuff, and the concept of the map. Though there is nothing new about it, nothing thats not been done before.
Keep up the good work ^.^.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Yes!!That's true!!I want people to give me ideas to make this map unique.I can't find some and the systems i am thinking of are too hard for me to make

If i find i will post a big text with my ideas for the map..

 

[Maximash]

Oki doke ^.^, i'll think of some stuff, i'm good at that sort of thing.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Ok,here are some ideas:


1.I want heroes to be able to carry one weapon as their primary,like in Requiem Of The Gods.Then after getting your weapon you can upgrade it's damage,speed or add it to have special effect on attacks.

2.Mini-games every 5 or 10 minutes.

3.Recipes or not???

That's all for now,i will edit the post when i can,with more suggestions.

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

Good ideas, minigames are always fun, if they are well made. Else they are a dread that can ruin the entire map.

Recipies is a good thing to add, but as nobody knows your map the recipies shouldn't be too difiqult and there shouldn't be too many of them. 5-6 would do fine.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

First of all i want to add 30+ items.Recipes will come later when people will get to know the items.

 

[Direfury]

I'm still thinking on arming items but without the complications,once you acquire an item,use triggers to do something like...
Event - Unit Acquires an Item
Condition - Item of Type (Sword) equal to Item Carried by (Unit)
Trigger - Create (sword) And Give to (Unit) in Slot 1
Trigger - Remove (Item Carried by (Unit)

its something like that,I don't have my Editor openned,but heres how I do items:
Slot 1:Weapon
Slot 2:Helm,Necklace
Slot 3:Shield,Ring,Weapon
Slot 4:Armor,Cloak
Slot 5:Random Item
Slot 6:Random Item

Try arranging it like that,it might take a TON of triggers but it adds a small bit of flavour to the map.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Well,i might think of a better system!Thanks for your advice though!

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

So when do you think this project will be ready for perhaps a beta release?

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

The beta release is already out.I just wanna add:

-More heroes maybe finish a whole tavern(i am waiting for some people's help)
-Create tons of items.
-Find some gameplay ideas.
-Someone to create a multiboard.

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

My bad, I just saw the "completed 45%" and thought that meant that nothing was currently released.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Oh yes...i gotta edit my signature xD

 

[Wolverabid]

I finally found some time to give the map a brief test, Uchi.

It looks good so far. The terrain is decent but could easily be further developed. As you add more elements (items, heroes, quests, etc.) Warriors of Ashenvale is sure to entertain many players.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Currently,some people are helping me create some heroes.I think there will be 12 heroes at least on the next 4-5 versions.
I am creating items every day and i am trying to find some good ideas.
I haven't found some ''good'' quests to create.Right now i am thinking on how to improve the gameplay.

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

Few but great heroes are important. Don't think about adding a ton of heroes and think that it will make your map great, but focus more on a few, great heroes. You can allways expand later on.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Yeah.That's what i am thinking raging.But if you don't like a hero you can tell it here and tell me to do some improvements on him.

 

[Preskooldude]

When will this be out of beta?

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

I don't know yet.I wanna add lots of heroes and items.And also i need lots of ideas.It's pretty complicated...
