New "Aos Type" Map

[Pornomon]

hey, im not saying i wanna quit this or nething, cuz i dont, but just wonderin what yall wanted to do,

Would u guyz rather make a campaign instead with a new race or races, or something like that with complete custom stuff, like new building and things,

or we can stick to this, its up to u guyz, whatever

Just seeing if yall would think that would b more fun or sometin just put campaign or AoS in a post or something

 

[guitarmonky55]

i say we finish this map then begin something else.

if u want ne custom buttons, tell me the button that the ability currently uses(so i can find the directory so it will show up) and tell me what you want it to look like or thename of the spell.

if you could please just tell me some units that u want skinned it would make it easier on me, and anything is equally easy so it dont matter.

 

[Pornomon]

ok so guitar you want stick with the map, at least some1 replyed and said, did you read the whole post? there is a part just 4 u, and it should explain, like i said anything you want, it dont matter how ez it is, you could reskin a peon and it would be on there, i would find some skills or sometin that would make it good or something. Just be creative

and if we did start a campaign after this, would u skin for us

 

[guitarmonky55]

ok, and with the campaign maybe i could try out some models. im still workin out bugs but i think i can do it reasonably well. dont ask for them yet tho, im not nearly good enough with them yet.

 

[Pornomon]

ummm guitar, i still dont know what models mean, i said that in the big post, i know what skins and how to import them, but what r models?

Ok now heres my question part.

Can you import parts of maps to yours? (That way we can all be working on our part, for example i would be unit editing, and when Genki finished the dialog i could import it in the one i had units in), or do we all have to go seperately and just do it when no1 else is working on it?

Which Races will be allied? (Humans and Orcs Vs. Night Elves and Undead, And so-on, whichever would be best, anything but humans and night-elves, even tho those go toghther, i dont want the same thing like all the other maps) You guyz can choose that, just post whichever one you would want.

This will sound really newbish but i know crap about skins so....
What is the diff between models and skins? The map will have a few custom skins, just for some heroes, to make it look a little more professional instead of just slappin something toghther, but models, im not sure what they are, so if their important, and guitarmonkey can do them, then sure go ahead.

first off: x0rcist is gone right now... not sure where he's off to but he dissapeared.

1. you can import scripts, strings, units, skins, models, spells, anything from one map to another.

2. Humans & Undead V. Orcs & Night-Elves sounds best to me.

3. Models r... well actually i think they're what skins go over (the inside of the war3 unit)

 

[genki-dama]

Well i never even started on the dialog - umm cause - well i never got a copy of the map when ever someonesend me i will be glad to help!! my email is at bottom!! laterzz!!\



oo yeaa and i dont thing you can import parts - maybe you can with the new version - cause the jump forom version 1.07 to 1.10 has changes the map editor!! ALOT!!!

ok pornomon heres skin/model explanation:
skins are the images that are displayed on the unit. like any tatoos, skin color or whatever. tehy are made as a 2d image that is like the skin cut off of the character and stretched out so u can paint it. models are the actual physical character. changing skins on a unit say a blademaster will change details like the pattern on his pants or whatever. if i want to change the shape of him, or add another arm or change the size of his head or whatever, the model would be changed.

do we all have TFT yet? becuase there are so many more possibilities if we were to port this map over into TFT. all of the new neutral units, and campaign units and stuff are sooo cool we would basically be throwing out our map if we didnt.


for those of you that have played the campaign and have run into the forgotten one, you know what im saying here. i say we put one of those into the map somewhere as those are seriously cool. it would hafta be like a neutral, or maybe some kind of base defense.

 

[Pornomon]

i got tft, i hgate the fact illidan dies!

 

[Pornomon]

Ok, i have not talked to the terrain, (demonmarine) or xorcist to at least even show me what they have done, and its really pissin me off,

If they are gone or sometin, someone else work on the terrain, the map is 128 by 128 i dunno what the playable is.

I think i explained what it is ill c if i can find the quote

Read all this, and if your good at terrain, then just do something, and say your gonna try, i can touch up after u do a basic outline of everything, ill perfect it and stuff. Just post, and say your gonna work on it, the size is mentioned above

I know most of you hate DOTA, as do I, sometimes due to the fact that its just like any other AoS except with new spells. But the terrain it very good and is alot like i need.

In the bottom right and top left, (or visa-versa) Will be instead of forest things, a castle, the castle isnt a square or rectangle, it will stretch diagonally, with 3 spaces for the men to come out, along with walls and things. The walls are for archers, that with that chooser where you choose ur men you can order ur castles archers to go on the walls and defend. But back to the terrain, inside the castle will have the normal stuff, but like DOTA, have the buildings like the stuff really is there, to make it more realistic.
Including the merchant buildings and fountains. Not just 1 fountain about 2 or 3 in each castle. Along with a castle or something blah blah blah, thats the objective to destroy. You know the story.

Along the other parts, of the map, will be towns, just small towns, that look like tribal, i guess indian towns, except with modern buildings. They will have a fountain, (1), and potion shop, and a library, (tome shop), and a town shop, i guess you would call it, for upgrading your troops, and other things with the town that i will think of. In the town will have normal buildings, a few houses, a barracks of some sort, just make it look like a real town that has troops coming from it. (for example, dont make the troops come out of a house or something)

Around each town will be cliff walls, along the sides of it, so its not touching the other towns. The front of the town wont have anything, unless maybe a cliff that will protect it, but still with the space where the troops come out.

Almost the whole map will be full of towns, ecept a few spots, that will have special event areas of some sort, with special merchants or something. The rest is up to you guyz, the treez, the river, the rest of the doodads, wherever you want, up to the terrainers.


Please just update me someone, i really wanna get started, or im gonna do a map i can work on alone.

 

[guitarmonky55]

do it with tft!!!! we should put a forgotten one somewhere in the map, those things are sooooo cool. and mayb use those infernal juggernauts or whatever as base defense for at least one of the sides.

 

[Pornomon]

ummm, guitar if u mean the map with tft, thats what i was planning on doing it with, but if no1 replies with doing the terrain in awhile, im gonna make a diff map, that i can do the terrain myself where its not that hard,

maybe a nice hero arena or sometin

With TFT

 

[Pornomon]

ok guyz bad news, demonmarine finally got on Aol messenger, and i asked him how ther terrain was, and he said he 4got to do it, and none of its done, so basically WERE ****ED, i saw a map that kinda looked like what i needed just w/o the towns and i unprotected it but its too small, so guyz, i hate to say it, but im abandining it, i cant find ne1 to do terrain, and even now, the wait for it is killing me, so i guess thread closed except a few more replies, ill say closed frank at the very end so you will know.

As for other stuff, I'm thinking of starting a new map, with terrain i can actually do, a hero arena most likely, with newer features and stuff, or if any1 has another idea just reply here, and if you wanna help, say it here also, but just give me some ideas for the hero arena, give me an idea for a new map, or say you wanna help or sometin.

OR..... guitar, we talked about this earlier, if we wanted to start a campaign, im sure if i could find xorcist he would do some terrain for a campaign with a new race or something. And unless alot of people wanna do that, i would rather do the hero arena, but yalls choice.

Thats about it, so reply with what u think

 

[Pziko Snake]

I Can do the terrain, just tell me how do you want it to be

 

[Pornomon]

ok ill say it again, thx pziko ive seen ur map, there good here it is, do u have aol instant messenger?
