[RC1 V2] Comments about PoC...

I want to give one suggestion and to report a bug ...
Because I make no idea where I can do that ... I make it here =D

Anyway, My suggestion is for brutal lord. The jump he does has a few problems mainly because it can kick units to the middle of the trees (for no reason) and then they don't quit... Also the jump should have a "ThunderClap" or "WarStomp" animation when the hero falls ... it would make a lot more sense since the hero is supposed to be big.

Finally, when I was attacking the demons base the game simply crashed for no reason when I used jump spell (again) ...

Also, if you like Demons, and having in mind Poc only has 2 races (my project jas 6 .... and Naga are on the way! but not for 2.0 =P ) you think you may want to considerate using this interface:
http://www.wc3c.net/showthread.php?t=93713

I would gladly post the replay but having in mind everything crashed .... the replay was not saved ...

Personal opinion:
I think the demon race (with which I played) lacks a strategy plan. It doesn't follow the rules from other previous races:
http://www.wc3c.net/showthread.php?t=93188

and it uses too many imports (models imports, we can not escape icon imports most of the time but model imports are huge ...)

Anyway, I liked your project, maybe one day wc3c will host mine as well (/me laughts =P ).
Keep up the good work.

The whole PoC can be used for that... don't worry, I moved it for you :)

actually it has a custom warstomp effect, made by JetFangInferno, when it slams the ground.... isn't there any crater effect after the smash?? I'm sure I checked it....

I do need a replay for this, if someone could reproduce this I'd really love it.

Ohh yes, that one is very nice, but unfortunately it's too big and every byte in map size counts to me for Bnet games. If we proceed with the PoC campaign, be sure you'll see it in the demon chapters.

WHY!!!??? WHY??? why don't you saved it??? kidding. Could you please indicate me at least how did you started the game (your race, AI race, units trained, etc) and I'll try to reproduce.

It does follow a strategy plan, which is totally different to an standard race. Comparing PoC with standard races is like comparing apples with grapes. For the only fact of using the enemies death as a resource (check Devotion points), it changes totally the approach and objectives of the game.

Original WC3 models was limiting my hero design, therefore I needed new models, there's no problem in that, improves the eyecandy and game experience.

i thought the demon race was the easier race to use out of the two.
