Zachary: Wouldn't "Death spasm" be a better name for that than "Muscle contraction?" Rigor Mortis would also do, I s'pose, but you're really going for quick flailing motions after death.


The point is that it isn't Death Spasm's or Rigor Mortis, this skill looks like he nearly dies when it's activated and he release his final powers. Muscle Contraction sounds original and fits him nicely :) But thanks for the feedback :)

Death Spasms: Corpse lying on the floor, shaking....

Muscle Contractions: Gathers last strength and tightens every muscle in his body to release his strength....then dies :P

I'll likely be tossing in my Shogun hero into the mix. Somebody else made the skin, and I simply downloaded it for my own uses. I can't recall who made it, though.

The Shogun is based upon the Demon Hunter model and will sport the following skills, the names of which shouldn't give away their uses.

Homura
Seppuku
Bushido
Sakura (ultimate)

hehe first off malice i would like to say that you do know that you posted atleast one of those spells in a thread on how to make it. his ultimate. i don't know about the other but i know what that one does and you dun have it made yet. muhahahahaha. 2nd off i was just wanting to say my hero is nearly completed. i started it earlier today and have every spell completly. 5 spells in all 3 normal and 2 ultimate. one learned at level 6 and one at 10. the spells are all trigger based and none of the are just a regular spell. they all use triggers and i kept them all nice and clean so that judges can have a look at them. but i used we unlimited so to view it you need that editor. all i have left to do is skin a couple icons and than skin my model and i'm done. at any rate tho i have one question.

where do we send this hero to when it is completed? thanx in advance-
Supra God

If he made it or not isn't the question, if you read the initial post:

it dont matter if u take someone elses skin off a site we just want the best hero... its all we care about :P

So don't start bashing when you know nothing about it...

2nd off...(to use your term) Your hero might have 5 spells and all are trigger based. But I've seen alot more crappy spells trigger based than normal spells. Won't comment anymore on that, since we don't even have a screen to relate to :P

The deadline is 21st of November...We have the 20th of October today, so chill...

I recomend you sit down and look over your triggers for bugs, flaws, look over your text for the spells, make sure all your tool tips are working right. Make sure that you don't have any icons going green...all the small stuff wich makes it awesome when everything is in order...

take your time, just cos ur first at delivering, doesn't mean you will win...srry

@Draco -> I asked him about that from the start, and this isn't the idea. Dunno him rl, but I've talked to him alot over Msn and I don't think he would "steal" anything!

whoooo zach calm down first off i was just kidding with the other guy about him asking for help because he was saying no one knew the names of his spells. i never intented it to bash him and say he wasn';t a good hero creator. if he came up with the idea for the spell than he is the creator. even if he needed help to make it happen. in no way was i bashing malice(sorry if it was taken that way)
and 2nd i was only giving info on my hero to let people have an idea of what they are up against. i was not saying i am supreme and i am far from turning in my hero. he will be turned in the day before the contest ends even if i finish him now(which i won't). i will be running beta tests with my hero for a while with a friend and i may do some terrain on the small map he is on. in short i am saying that you took everything i said out of context so chill man.

To be downright honest, I've barely begun work on my hero. I've got the skin and the spell ideas, but aside from Seppuku (which is still a bit buggy), they're all still on paper. I believe I posted the details of Bushido and Seppuku elsewhere at some point as well.

I said I didn't expect people to be able to discern the spell's uses by their names. If I posted a spell named "Hammer Toss", one could pretty much figure out what it did. :ggani:

I know people visiting these forums view it in different ways. Zach seems to see the forums as a very professional place, while Supra is more laid back about his posting. These are just educated guesses; Zach could be a hippie and Supra a congressman for all I know. However, I am relatively casual about these forums, and I see Supra's post as more along the lines of "Hehe. I know what one of them does. NYA!" in more mature phrasing of course.

As far as your hero goes Supra, I agree with Zach to an extent. If you just started him today and are almost done already, you may want to take a bit of extra time to make sure everything works perfectly. It's just a suggestion.

And on a final note, I honestly doubt that I'm going to win, but I'll do my best anyway. :D

If I finish my current map before the deadline, I will participate in this contest.

Can you give us some more specific information regarding how you're going to judge the entries?

Look, I Dont Know Much About Skinning, Other Than I Do Not Have The Proper Programs To Make A Good Skin, But Spells On The Other Hand... I Have A Few Interesting Ideas If You Are Willing To Message Me... Unfortanetely, Some Of Them Do Not Go With Your Theme Of Gangsters, And Would Make Absoloutely No Sense In Your Game, But Message Me For Those Ideas. All I Ask For Is Credit If You Use Them. Keep In Mind, Im Not Signing Up, Just Giving Ideas,

TY

do i have to use a custom skin/model ?
correction : custom made skin/model....

and can a hero have a similar skills like the original one (e.g. i pick the crypt lord and give him spiked carapace)

and can i post multiple heros or just one ? if i can post mulltiple, how much ?

cuz i'm doing a really big project noone ever heard of cuz it's not public yet and i got over 30 heros just sittin on a blank map waiting for a terrain, so i can begin triggering....all heros/skills/triggers are made by me...

but sure, count me in....i'll just pick one out of 30 :)
i have a couple spells that's really good :) i'll send the whole map, u check it out, take what you need, edit it if u want, u don't have to give me credits if u don't want to, but u best do if u rip off my stuff :)

Hey shark, nice heros.... unholy conversion doesn't create a zombie for the player it creates a neutral one.. not sure if you meant for this to happen... also the POTM.. her final is starfall but kael has it as a regular spell... and his is better... maybe youa ren't really using the POTM?
