Click the link. I need your opinion on this map I'm making. I made most off what you see there on the first day with the WE. I added mostly doodads and units to the mix after I found it. I decided it to make it a terrain test. Later I started to add units to the middle and I saw something I could make ino a cinematic.(I wihs Daemon would make an authoritative cinematoc tutorial).

Please don't mind the cameras and the and starting loactions in one of the maps. It's a work in progress so it still needs a little tweaking.

It's about a ruler who assembles on court. Look thru only the screenshots in the link. everything else is unnecessary.

Thnx for the opinion I hope that you will post( post a comment or anything about it.)

thanks. First comment in..............................................................................
Well, just multiply every period times 1 minute and that'll give you an estimate.
I hope there are more posts.
I'm trying to figure out the camera proerties, but no luck. I would have WAY better angles if i know what the shit meant. Daemon I request againa cinematoc tut.

Here's my idea for the next scene. Once he's done with his speech. The camera fades to an angle(isometric) and moves forward. The archer lifts her bow and shoots just before you can't see her or anything because of the archs. Play some music form kazaa and the archer (looks like dark ranger) blinks out. The guards look around vigorously. She blinks back into the room and picks them off one by one before they touch here. Maybe casts a spell. The camera fades. It goes back to the main plaza(below the roofed area on the map) where the people socialize. the gate busts open and an army appears, lead by a white haired man in a black cape...

Still thinking off how it would go after that. Post when i think of something

I looked thru the units for the man in the cape. I really don't wanna pull Arthas out. If I did his model would need adjusting. That small sword would be something like Cloud's(sans the dinky handle, it wouuld look like Arthas's sowrd, just really big). It has a diamond sparkle to it. He needs a huge black mantle for it that drags on the floor. Sound slike fun right? I can't skin so if any1 wishes to undertake this in a week or 2 that would be great(see below)



2 problems:
1. I have no idea what to do with the camera to adjust everything. I fooled around to get those shots. But now i want them in a specif angle, etc.
2. As it says in my sig, I gotta do a map for Brador of the Punic Wars, so this map will probably be tossed aside till tht's done. So don't expect any screens for a day or so. :(

I beleive i have an idea for the next part.(just thought of it)
See the two paladins. After the archer blinks alot(FP perspective, maybe) and kill alot, she takes out the paladins. The first one, but the secind one put on divine shield runs out. The cloaked man busts thru the gate with his magi by his side. The archer stands there looking at him. He looks to the hall to the citadel and only sees one corpse there. He kill her without so much as a thought. He calls up one of his men to find the little paladin. He's a dmeon hunter who finally gets the job he deserves(an assassin). The speedy little NE almost catches up to him, but freezes him. He runs out toward the small village on the top right ot find the NE standing there with the corpses of the villagers lieng there. The paladin backs up slowly facing the Assassin. He back up inot the cloaked man's forces. He throws a net over him(ensnare). The paladin turns on the shield. The cloaked man shuts it off. The paladin screems on agony as hes beaten. One of the men fighting him drops something. The paladin picks it up and uses it. He disapears. Everyone backs away, sans the man who droped the trinket. He casts(forget that cool Blood mage fire attack name) on him.

the paladin reaperas at the wharves(right of the map). The villagers and merchants are going about their business. He runs up to the auctioneer box and kciks him off it. He tells them his story. The stretching sound of a box echos thru the air and the paladin falls down. The assassin of him runs up to him and picks up the stone...He teleports tot he wharves where the working class spimpletons inload the ships.(this next part i can't think of).


I'll bet that sound corny so im gonna work on that ok.


Oh yeah, I'm in a private school honor's class so you can expect alot of homework there. Much more than public. That also might affect the map, although the classes aren't THAT hard :(

I didn't really like her. She's supposed to be the Dark Ranger(I thought i was going to get the Beta, but no).
The lcoaked man is the problem. A huge as diamond sparkle sword, white hair, and he has to have a small black glow grom him(like fir eor a hero glow).

anyways, i would have FAR better shots if i knew what the hell you do witht th eproperties and what they mean(check other post "Camera Properties" or something like that. I might put in the triggers in awhile. 1 week maybe and get some more of the map done. I'll have a couple of new pics around 4:00(EST)

It'll show what the parts shown look like now
