Wrath of the Trolls

your trollz are so damn evil! in the demo campaign from blizzarf trollz a friendly guys who avoid big bad humans and give good orcs help. trollz are good people. always want to help.

In Quel'thalas a tribe of evil trolls have corrupted a river so that all the creatures that drink from the water are becoming corrupted as well

Nuff said

Yea it would be good if the slave was another race, it could be from something the trolls already conquered.

I have started on the cinematic map and I'll start posting pics of it. but I eithor need to learn how to use camaras or I need someone to send it to when im done.

you posted right before me but yea the more evil trolls drank from the water and became evil. Our tribe, the less evil tribe, isnt evil per se they just like to be left alone, and dont like intrudors.

with the slave thing i'd prefer it too be high elven since people wont think question marks about it while playing the game

a lot of my ideas i steal from stuff:Heh: like new unheard of games and such(Spellforce :( )

I doubt that there is something that I could help you with since you all have jobs. But however I am an experience modder. I've done quite a lot of campaigns, I helped in a few MODs and one I did some custom races as well.I have also been the director of a MOD. So I just wanted to give you some advices.

Fist of all, you guys really have to find a place to host you campaign. there are loads of sites just begging for people to join. you can't carry on in one thread, you must have a forum for you guys. if you can't get one here, then get one elsewhere.

Also it would be a good idea to have more then one terrainer. if you only have one, then in every map you will get the same mistakes. If you have more then one, those two terrainers can send their maps by Email to each other and fix the other one's mistakes. In the end your maps will ahve been taken care of by two people instead of one. Which will give a better result.

You guys are doinf the same mistake by have only one spells/abilities editor. You must have more then one. So that if one of the guys doesn't knwo how to do something then the other can always teach him.

Same goes for the unit editor. Have more than one. Your units will benefit from it.

About the skinning/modeling. If you are not sure wether you will use a skin/model. Don't post it in the forums, someone might steal your ideas and take creadit for it.

also it is always good to have someone that knows a lot about the editor. This guy must knwo about the AI, Triggers, Game Caches, you name it. You need a guy that knows a lot about the editor. This guy must be able to answer your questions about the editor whenever you need it.

You also need someone who is very experienced in modding. Soemone who has doen campaigns before, someone who has done mods before. someone with good leadership skills, someone who is organised.

Thsi campaign may go far if you carry on like this. But it can go even farther if you take my advice. Trust me, I knwo what I am talking about.

Thats good advice, thanks.

But if we have only one terrainer (me) not only will I make all the same mistakes but I'll do all the same right stuff too. I'm just kidding though, the reason we dont have more then one person per job is we havent found the people yet.

The reason we havent yet got hosted is we dont have enough stuff done yet. If we got hosted it'd be easier for us to organize our ideas, and maybe we could get a private place to talk besides PMs but I would personly like to wait till we're at least done with most of our concept ideas.

If you want to help that'd be great. What other projects have you been involved in and whats your prime thing that you do?

Im editing this to say I just finished one of the scenes for the opening cinematic. Should I post it here?

What about RebelHero? he wanted to help, and he seems like he would be a very good asset to you? Seeing how he is willing to learn about skinning and all. he also seems skilled in triggers and terrain.

But anyways you won't find a lot of people if you carry on in one thread. Make an other one asking for people to join. Not a lot of people would read through a whole thread what a group of guys is doing.



That's not the only way to get hosted. A good way would be to make sure that this project is noticed. To do that, there is only one thing to be done: Take the forum over.
Let me explain, post loads of threads about the project in this forum. Threads such as this:
Team talk Thread
Spell Ideas thread
Race Development thread
But make sure that those threads belong to you only. And in the end you will be noticed. And a modderator probably will ask you guys to be hosted here if you get noticed enough.



I doubt that you will know any of them as none of them were putted here. And unfortunatly there were all lost when this virus came on my computer.

-Rise of the High Elves
That was a trilogy about when the Quel'Doreis were exiled from Kalimdor and went to Quel'Thalas. It was a trilogy of how the Elves stuggled to find a place in this new country.

-Dawn of Chaos
That was one huge project that I did with a couple of friends. It was in happening in a world similar to Azeroth. With nine campaigns all of them with different races.

-Strands of fate
A project to wich I am the director.

And various small other campaigns. I have also made a couple of custom races. Such as Forest Trolls, High Elves, Dwarves, Nerubians, Draneis.

As for the stuff I do: Terraining, unit editor, race designing, Story writing and Campaign designing, team manager.



I'll consider it. But you guys must also ask yourselves if you really need me.

-Kyanou

I havent heard anything from him lately, But theres room for him.


I dont know but unless we got hosted I dont know how the mods would feel about us making new threads. Its not that I and every one else doesnt want to be hosted I personaly think we need all of our concept work done (well has much has posible at least) before we go looking to get hosted. If we were to get hosted then we end up deciding not to fallow through with our project then we would have wasted other peoples time. But I want to get hosted asap.





We need all the people we can get especaly for something like terrain and we need someone who knows cinematics.

Lol, I thought there was no place for me in this team so I kinda left this forum, but I just checked it again. Im here If U still need me, just PM me. Search threads on my name to see my latest skin, firemage. Im currently working on my own map, but Skinning is what I really want to do. Triggers, well... I can trigger but Im not good at it... At least I dont know how to make trigger based spells.. :) And i think Im pretty good at terraining.. :)

Are you going to need voice actors ?.........

Zul´jin lives in the trolls forever......

Hey, sorry i've been gone. Anyway, is there anything I should be doing?

Thanks for the advice, Kyanou, I'll definately think about it.

There isn't really much for you to do Sypher, so it's not really som bad that you was away.

Ok, listen up everyone! An admin from www.wc3m-o-d-f-o-r-g-e.com (let out the -'s) contacted me and asked if we would like to get our project hosted at their site. I just want to hear what you think, since I don't want to just make huge decissions like this without consulting the team. I hope you like the idea, since being hosted will make everything much easier for us. That was all for now.

Edit: What? These boards censor m-o-d-f-o-r-g-e? What's wrong with it?

It will speed things up, but, m-o-d-f-o-r-g-e... grrr... this is odd. Isn't that were the pirated beta was hosted? Stop me if I'm wrong.
