Im working on a Tower defence right now. I attached a screen shot. What do you think. The monters spawn from 8 difrent spots outside and run to the middle. I have the terrain 99% done, Units .0000001% (Includes towers), Triggers .00000000000000001% (Life system + or -), Balance 0% (nothing to balance), Creep waves 0% (triggers and units), Reason for defence 50% (WIP) Any comments? like the terrain etc. suggestions.... |

It looks alot like something I have seen before, but I just can't put my finger on it... |

I am still a newbie. This is my first map im really pushing. I learned off other peoples maps but i never EVER copied their design etc. I quit Wc3 for like 5 months and lost my battlenet name "l33t" I started just september and now maybe deep in my memory of wc3 i had seen this design somewhere... oh well only those who have played wc3 sciance january would know... Btw when i came back UMSWE didnt work anymore and i found WE Unlimited and used it. Then i realized a UMSWE update was out. But i prefer WEU now... EDIT: maybe its becayse it has the nazi sign in the middle which was unintentional. I started spiraling it and that happend. honest. |

Aren't the nazi sign kinda bent to one side? The original sign was for Peace and unity (don't quote me on that :P) At least something like that. Damn Hiltler just copied it, and rotated it (just like the pentagram, one way it's Magic and Holy, other way it's Demonic and Evil..) So don't worry about that (unless it's pointing the wrong way, I wouldnt change it :P) Looks cool though :) Keep up the good work. Lets have some shots of the terrain in game pls :) And the city (wanna see if it just looks like every other city...) Team or Survivor? |

thanks for feedback. im thinking pulling a cube defnce mutiple options. Im looking for help on this. If you could help with the units and level difficulty its welcome. Ive almost got the whole wave system steup but it needs some thing to order... oh yea new update There is a problem with the terrain for the corners stting its progress back... :nono: i want the corners to be like this ____________ |------------------| |--++++++++--| |--++++++++--| + = black marble - = trimmed grass but rotate it for each corner but anyway 2 corners are messed up and my break from school to push this map to death is almost gone (Weekends and wendsdays im usualy open) so i dont have much of a chance to look into every detial why its like that give me untill tomorrow to prepare screen shot for better explanation. Sorry if this is confusing but its late and i need to go to bed. :nono: (off topic) do you know when bliz will release 2nd orc chapter? I want to play their professional rpg some more... |

I got 3 in game shots about a dummy wave of wisps. There are 100 of them and the spawned in the upper right hand corner. They did not go tru the real walking system ( go to region this go to region that blah!) they just ran to the middle. One screen shot shows the 100 wisps leaving corner (Where the city will soon apear). the next one is a wisp after it hit the sunwell (It died but the lightning is there) Also when the floating text was at 100 it looks white. The more lives you loose the redder it gets (Per life) Finaly i demonstrate the gain life system. That dummy swordsman repesents a unit i will design for life gaining. You can use him for other abilites but right now i show life gaining. The third pic shows after all 100 wisps attacked the sun well the swords man saved it by "attacking" or running up to the sunwell. About 2:45 today i will give the whole shotof the new map and better describe my corner problem. Untill then post some suggestions! |

as i promised here it is explaning my corner problem. Ok see the black marble area? That is how i want it on the edges souronded with 2 squares of grass. The back with 1 square and the front with 0 (it should go all the way to the exit path) The corect size of every corner should bee that lagest square or the size of the black marble with the side grass plus a 3 sized square (Green selection. this square is 2 squares to long (the green dosent touch the marble and the exit path) Some are to shot others to thin etc. I will post my map and hope someone can help me figure out my error. Because the map is in such an early stage (Started just yesterday) its kindof hard to steal it.. My life system is unique and i will leave it on the posted map so you can see what the screen shots cant show. Sorry for blabering on or making this confusing.... The corner deminsons can be differnt from what i specified above but the map must be symetrical! |

Use regions to make waypoints. Your wisps seem like a bunch of sheeps runnng 'cause Babe scared the **** out of 'em. WAYPOINTS!!! Some order! |

the cross with four branch and 90° turn, like the one used but hitler as symbole exist from long time before many over millenium in ancient dynastie i don't remember exactly wich one maybe babylonian.... but what i wana say it is that its a symetrical sign like can be used in mathematic (geometric) so who bloody care that this sign was used by a sucker, if hitler would has used the pyramid as a symbole that would have mean pyramide is bad ?? i think it is just a non-sens so don't worry about what is its signification for it has nothing to do with hitler... as long as your map name is not mein kampf and the goal to kill all non aryan people then i see no problem with it... |

*turns into a grammar nazi* It's WHETHER not weather. Hitler is the best! *reverts* Hitler is horrible! Some people might not like that sign.. but maybe you could cover it up with some terrain designs or something? |
