Upcoming Map: Fortress Wars - Info & Screenies

I'm not using the standard view. Camera field of view is set to 800 at start of game. Plays nicely. And the paths are balanced right now. Making them larger would require a complete redo of the triggers and unit health, its not going to happen. The empty grass spaces are used for invasion movement freedom, saboteurs, global attacks etc etc.

There were heroes in the first invasion tests. It was just a hero and 9 units for an invasion. This wasnt a lot of fun and thus was changed to large amount of weak units coming from all sides.

Sell is a feature Im looking at. Not that its that hard to implement (create sell unit, make it available at all towers,check when a sell unit is trained, remove the training tower and grant gold), it just isnt on my list of important things to do. I've got the full TFT editor now, so first thing Im going to do is see what can improve ^-^

Thanks for the feedback.

Oh, ExtProtect is crackable in seconds too >_<

Well, you know, there IS an UNPROTECTOR which can unprotect any map, and yes I do have this program. Not like I would use it though, so don't worry :).

I have it too, Im testing all protection methods but none seem to be unbreakable. Advantage though is that cracked maps dont have original triggers, but JASS script only.

By the way, sell feature now working ( by request >< )

Download, when you find the best way, send me a PM.

Regards

If the crackers only spit out Jass then we wouldnt worry too much about it. Few ppl who can work with Jass are the kind who would ruin your map.

Heavylocker still seems the best to me. Creates JASS upon being cracked instead of triggers. Too lazy to PM :D



True but they can still open the unit editor. Hey lets change this unit health to 15, up from 13, and call it my map!

yea but that is only lamers who do that (like summermaul ect.)
If i were u, i wouldnt worry to much....

Yeah I suppose. I was kind of hoping TFT editor brought an internal protection, but it doesnt =|


Guess I should stop being so paranoid
emote_sweat

Yes you should :bgrun:
I mean people like us that know the best of modding and makeing UMS are the only ones who probably know how to crack or want to crack a protector.... i mean ppl who do that must be excellent map makers and are like us... Pretty much your just worried about all them newbies that made all them $&#& mauls. I just use the regular protecter and make a back up if u ever wanna change it :ggani: Seriously why would one of us wanna hack a map... we would just make our own :P

Because my maps are so damn cool everybody wants it :D joke =)

Hey I was on b.net forums and I accedantly clicked on the link to here and... Wow fortress wars looks like it will be REALLY good. Tell us all when it's out. I'm REALLY looking forward to it, it looks great!

Hah I knew spamming the battlenet forums would pay off one day :ggani:

One thing that I know alot of SC map makers used to do is put the name of the maker on all kinds of stuff. Like As for triggers u put a hard to find trigger that says the map was made by you, and you put a few small neutral units that are called made by <name>, and lots of other stuff. Also name the strongest tower <name> tower or name the best attacking unit <name>. That way stupid idiots that want to just run in and change the description and loading screen are pwned by your madd hiding ur name everywhere skillz. Just a thought.

Actually hiding your name in JASS triggers would be a good idea... Eh download?
About slobbering your name over the map... Bad idea..

Im not too worried about people stealing it anymore. Ill still be the only one releasing the true and good updates anyway.

About my name, its in 2 of the tips, the end of the game, and theres a critter somewhere on the map with the name =)
