Wicked Rising - A new kind of survival

[ApocalypseNow]

Fantastic. Happy 50th page!

 

[albertroy]

I just saw the map now.. and the models used were great.. Who made those models??

 

[ApocalypseNow]

The_Silent made every custom model himself.

 

[Kanadaj]

Hmm it's an idea I wanted to make 4 years ago or so
Can I help you in any way?

EDIT: Oh, you already have a team ^^

 

[ApocalypseNow]

Read through the entire thread to get an idea of what's going on and what we need.

EDIT: Although your GUI expertise would be helpful for any advanced triggering we are bound to need.

 

[Kanadaj]

Sooo you need an inventory system and a craft system - so far those are the advanced ones I can tell. Anything else?

Stat system, zombie apocalypse customization, skill system, zombie behavior immprovements...

 

[Kanadaj]

Stat system? That's not a problem
Customization? Oo You mean in-game settings before game starts?
Skill system - I can imagine it, but I need to know exactly what do you want
zombie behaviour - piece of a cake ^^

 

[IPDT_FE]

how about adding 3 kinds of zombies every time
1. children
lower hp
faster
can't grab
hard to hit
2. adult
normal stats
3.old man
slow
low hp
easy to hit

The game will already involve a variant of these, except with different genders as well. Also, welcome back Jordan.

 

[albertroy]

Wow those models were great.. Nice one The_silent .. ^^

Doubt about the elderly since, well, thre wouldn't be much difference between elderly and average age - both are kinda dead and got the same zombiesh reflexes, and about children... not sure how can they be harder to hit, since they are kinda slow too...

Would all depend on the type of infection.

 

[IPDT_FE]

I'm not jordan whatever , I'm just new ^^ . anyway I hope this wasn't a replay of another post because I only read the first 23 pages

He's smaller?But still,only if you wouldn't know how to use a gun you would miss him...

Nice try, kid. But you keep doing the same mistake all the time...

Yes, but if you don't know how to use a gun, you'll miss targeting at anything.

 

[ApocalypseNow]

It would be appreciated for people to read the thread and give original ideas rather than just reposting things already covered.

 

[IPDT_FE]

what mistake lol I'm just a new player , I got an account on b.net on garena and on rgc , I guess a Damned troll wouldn't create all this accounts for just a map creator , stop saying I am that guy it's quite annoying , anyway I was just trying to give a tip , but if you became so paranoic I'll just find somewhere else where spend some time , I liked the idea of the game whatever

Yep, definitely Jordan.

 

[The_Silent]

Inventory is almost done, craft system isen't started yet.

Stat system, zombie apocalypse customization, skill system, zombie behavior immprovements...

Stat system is done, zombie apocalypse cusomization is 90% done, skill system needs just a multiboard. Haven't started on a zombie behavior system.

Wow those models were great.. Nice one The_silent .. ^^

thanks

He's smaller?But still,only if you wouldn't know how to use a gun you would miss him...

Oh yearh, reminds me, we also still need a country selection system, although that's VERY easy to make. I guess that in America and some third world countries, there is a fairly good chance a 12 year old know how to use a gun, but everywhere else, almost none.

Yep, definitely Jordan.

Just click the report button and let a administrator handle it, if he's not jordan, he has nothing to fear. It is really not worth wasting more posts on.

 

[Tleno]

So Craft system is in progress, apocalypse customization and other systems need tweaking to be done... and what systems aare still in progress and need some ideas/suggestions?

Also, if you'll ever suspect someone in beeing a jordon, contact Enjoy or Piramidhe@d. Any other moderator will work well too.

 

[ApocalypseNow]

^This. So excited to get this going. Send it to me whenever you're ready and I'll get started on proof reading.

 

[IPDT_FE]

thanks the silent for at least telling to call the admins and not only accusing

No, craft system isn't, item system is. Currently, only terrain need ideas

Also, as wc3 is kinda dying... Sadly... I'll redo this in c++ as its own game once this is completely finished...

 

[Kanadaj]

Hmm sounds good and yeah, that would give you more freedom... But why C++? I prefer C# as it's easier andsimpler - and most preferably follows more the basic programming language than C++ (found too many different ways you have to call a method, as C# seems to share more with the other languages, such as Delphi)

EDIT: Also I don't know if it works with C++, but I could recommend you the Windows XNA framework. The framework iteself is free (along with the Visual Studio 2010 Express Edition) and I'm working with it (yeah, with C#) I can say that it's VERY easy to use (even compared to the all-mighty OGRE) and also it's default shader(s) is not bad - well at least better than the one in WC. Also if set correctly then even with high poly count CPU usage can be kept under 50% of a 1-core CPU

 

[ApocalypseNow]

Warcraft III is hardly dying.

 

[13oot-Me]

Warcraft 3 B.Net has been dying for years now, it's an unfortunate thing. This site on the other hand, still thrives!

 

[ApocalypseNow]

If you say so. :S

I was thought C++, that really why I choose it xD will check Windows XNA framework, is it a 3d rendering tool since you refer to OGRE?. CPU usage isn't really a big problem, as the finished game will have graphic much similar to wc3 which mean a lot of low poly models.

Although, I'll focus all my attention on the map before I even consider more about the game.

Warcraft 3 B.Net has been dying for years now, it's an unfortunate thing. This site on the other hand, still thrives!

Haven't actually played it for a while. Just everything I hears point in that direction. :/

 

[Kanadaj]

Well yeah an efficient rendering tool by Microsoft ^^ Also if you make a game with it, it takes only 1 hour at maximum to translate the game for XBOX and Windows Phone as they use XNA too ^^

 

[ApocalypseNow]

Lets just focus on getting an alpha.

 

[IPDT_FE]

when admin will have assured that I'm not jordan I offer my help as tester if you want ^^

 

[Tleno]

Lets just focus on getting an alpha.

Yes, that's most immportant.

 

[DrRandomZ]

How goes the alpha?

 

[Tleno]

How goes the alpha?

You're doing some progress, jordon, but it's still obvious it's you.

anyways haven't heard about any updates for some time... any progress? Got anything else to discuss about, maybe?

 

[The_Silent]

Finalizing the version being released to the terraineers.

 

[13oot-Me]

Rawr! No alpha yet? Oh well, guess we must be patient.

 

[ApocalypseNow]

Progress update?

 

[Tleno]

Yes, any news? Haven't heard them for a few weeks (if I'm not mistaken)...

 

[The_Silent]

Had a computer crash, luckily I kept a updated version on an usb drive. So is working on Labtop now, nothing much else.

 

[Eldubs]

I dislike when people are trying to bring modern stuff into warcraft three, so i dont support this map although i agree its pretty neat.

+rep to you The Silent

 

[ApocalypseNow]

... That's stupid.

 

[Eldubs]

... That's stupid.

Whats stupid?

 

[ApocalypseNow]

Stupid.

 

[Orcnet]

haven't saw this one but those models look great, I'll keep in touch when this is done, good luck!

 

[Tleno]

Indeed, I mean, disliking something for bringing modernness or sci-fi to fantasy game... that's kinda odd Eldubs.

 

[ApocalypseNow]

It's not even a fantasy game, the Warcraft 3 game is. On the Map Editor it is just an engine that can and is used for any kind of genre of game.

 

[Superz_Ze_Man]

lets stop debating about what genre this game is or whatever, and instead do something useful? Ya?

Edit: I havent seen a proper map update for close to a month now...

 

[Symon]

Hey guys, I found something realy awesome. Check this out http://projectzomboid.com/blog/
This game is realy realistic, I played the demo 3 times now, and died everytime in one or two days, because some things are so realistic that you dont expect them
I dont want to spoiler too much, because its kind of cool to find out what is deadly in the apocolypse Mabye we can get some ideas from it.

Hope that this will help. Mabye you can add some events form that game in Wicked Rising... After the Alpha release, ofc ;D

Holy crap that looks amazing.
