Cartography & Custom Maps / Eastern Mediterranean
« on: October 31, 2017, 01:50:58 AM »
I've made this 4-player multiplayer map that spans eastern mediterranean.





Considering the relatively symmetrical layout of the geography, this is a much more balanced map compared to my europe map. And still has a few twists to make it interesting too.

Player start locations are on each corner of the map. Every player starts with a 60k gold mine, and has very easily expandable and easy to protect 2 other nearby mines, each 30k. The big island in the middle of the sea, Cyprus, has a single gold mine with 70k.

Chokepoints make all bases easily defendable.

There are 8 oil patches on the map, the four oil patches that are close to the mainland have 20k, the other four that are closer to the island have 40k.

Thin stone wall on the east side of the map separates the map into north and south. You have to either blow the wall up with sappers, or use transports to get to the other side.


Since the map is separated by the stone wall, in a 2v2 team game, this might bring out some interesting situations:
If both teams start the game on the same mainland, then it will turn into a north vs. south war on epic proportions.
But if the rival players start on the same mainland, then the game will turn into a set of simultenous 1v1 match. Meaning, you will have to finish the enemy off on the same land as you first, and then cross to the other side.

Cartography & Custom Maps / Europe Map
« on: October 31, 2017, 12:00:03 AM »
I've created a 5-player multiplayer map that spans most of Europe and northern africa, so that you can satisfy your world war fantasies in Warcraft 2.



Because of the obvious unsymmetrical geography of europe, this map might not be the most balanced multiplayer map you've played, but I've done my best to balance it out while trying to keep it interesting. Starting locations are in England, Germany, Spain, Northern Italy, and Poland.

Germany and Italy starts with 60k gold mine and they have a 30k easy expansion nearby
Spain and England starts with 65k gold mine because they are a bit harder to expand
Poland starts with 55k gold mine, because poland has 2 other nearby gold mines with less gold than usual.

Poland is separated from rest of the europe by a thin stone wall, which can be destroyed with sappers.

Northern africa is totally uninhabited, and has 3 gold mines, each having 50k inside. Securing that place before your enemy will without a doubt give you a huge advantage.

The oil is not easy to come by in this map, there are 3 oil patches in total, two of them have 25k inside, and they can be harrassed with catapults. England has one secure oil patch with 20k inside. But don't worry, you shouldn't have a problem expanding overseas if you are careful, as everyone starts with 5k oil anyways.


Be sure to try this out in a match and give feedbacks.

After watching Trump boldly and truthfully admit those facts, my respect for him jumped all the way up to 1001%. Now I sincerely believe that he's one of a kind president for USA, even despite his controversial shit. Even he's admitting to those atrocities. It's pointless to talk like as if america is the supreme hero and law-maker of democracy now.

Come on what about the choices?

20
Let's say the doomsday came and everyone you know and love died (you included) and you have been accepted into heaven, and you've been presented with 3 different types of heaven choices -or you can call them purgatory if you didn't like any of them- and you cannot change your decision after choosing one. So these are the ones, so choose wisely:



LAN Heaven

Imagine a LAN cafe that is 100 times bigger than the biggest LAN cafe on earth, and it's pitch black all the time, and the computer monitors are the only source of light, and it's playing techno/trance/house music (whatever electronic music you kids love these days) all the time. And all the computers have access to any and every imaginable esport game from the past, present and the future, and there are always empty seats. And you can find all of your multiplayer buddies that you've played in your past life in there, and you meet with them physically and you can play together any game you guys want at the same time and same place, and you will never fight amongst each other. You don't feel any hunger, thirst nor sleepiness, nor sickness, and you can play for all eternity.

Cons: It's always pitch black and the place can feel crowded/noisy since everyone kinda plays in the same big hub. The music genre never changes so if you don't like the music you are screwed. You cannot play anything other than a esport game/multiplayer game, and you will never enjoy the singleplayer experience ever again. You won't be able to experience a game with a good story. You don't have any earthly needs, but let's say you really wanted to eat a pizza because you've missed the taste - well you can't.



Singleplayer Heaven

Imagine a very large and luxurious lounge dedicated to you and you only, and there's no other person here other than the old cleaner lady that comes every few days and leaves immediately and never talks. You have access to a computer, a big television and a videogame console that can change it's shape and form into any of the videogame consoles that you've known in your previous life, at your whim. You can find and play any singleplayer videogame from the past, present and the future here. You also have a fridge in the lounge that holds anything you imagine, and a queen sized bed, and even a luxurious toilet. Note that you never feel hunger, thirst nor sleepiness, nor any of the earthly desires nor weaknesses but you can still do them if you ever feel like it. But no one else enters your room other than that cleaner lady who never talks. You cannot form physical connections with anyone you've known in your previous life, but you can still chat with all of your Steam friends on Steam, and Facebook friends on Facebook. (but no voice nor video chat. Text chat only) But you cannot play together, nor meet in your room nor someone else's room. And you cannot even leave your own room. But let's say you want something shipped from amazon, you can have it brought to your room in maximum 12 hours, and for free. (Anything that isn't a living and breathing multicellular being, not even a pet) Let's say you want a book, you can have it. You want a guitar, you can have it. You can even have sex doll. No questions asked.

Cons: You cannot have physical contact with anyone and it might get a little bit lonely there.



Non-Video Game entertainment Heaven

Imagine a big in-door pub, and it's full of people but somehow you can hear what your friends say, and there's no loud music playing. And there are all of the alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks and brands of the world in there, even the ones that you don't know nor didn't hear about, even if you cannot see one particular thing that you are searching for on the shelves, the waiter/waitress somehow leans and takes the bottle you are looking for out from one of the cupboards. They can even serve you mythical things like the water from the fountain of life, or the same wine jesus drank and whatnot, if you are into that kind of stuff. And it's all free, and they don't ever run out of drinks. You don't feel any hunger nor any earthly needs here, but you can drink to your heart's content, you will feel drunk but you will never ever pass out. Nor will you feel sleepy. And you won't feel the need to pee - unless if you want it. And any friend that you imagine from your previous life pops out of nowhere and joins you, and there's always something to talk about.

Cons: You really can't do anything other than drinking and chatting with friends over a table. They don't service food there neither, and there's no wifi.

These are your choices, so which one would you choose?

Trump is forgetting what makes america actually great with all those restrictive immigration policies. It's the multiculturalism.
The idea of america first is as bad and stupid as those england first nuts over facebook. He cannot be any good about any kind of diplomacy with that borderline-hostile international policies.
I can see another invasion in 10 months max. now with the excuse of "bringing liberty" or "democracy" while secretly helping their own agendas only. Then when they leave the infrastructure gets fucked up and there spawns another terrorist organization like isis. It's all just a loop.
Ofcourse majority of US citizens wouldn't have any problems with that as long as that sweet oil price is right for them, lmao.

I can see another invasion to some middle eastern country in the excuse of bringing freedom lolmao.

It's like joke came true.
Im still surprised to see less than 50% tards like you in US

I'm surprised to see that you are still the one to talk given that I didn't even understand a thing from your shit grammar while talking about politics that you don't know about and wildly assuming my nationality, lmao.

Mods & Development / Re: Convert wargus stuff to Warcraft 2?
« on: November 07, 2016, 02:58:14 PM »
@tupac,

Hey man, I think war2combat is amazing, but if only it had the better control schemes and better resolution options like wargus did, then it would have been so much better. Wargus has better control scheme, but it's missing online playability. War2combat has online playability and ladders, but it's control scheme is the same with original. Doesn't it make sense to take the best of each game (wargus' control schemes and resolution options, and war2combat's server) and combine them into an even better one? I mean, this definitely would have been so much better, I think. Isn't it worth to think over this, or isn't it achievable?

25
PS. red's buildings were added by me.

26
Hey, tupac, are you still there? I've been having tons of fun with wargus lately. But there's still something that I've bumped upon, and I need help.

Even though I've written my own AI in the mission's .sms file, for an extra computer player in the campaign mission (Human Beyond The Dark Portal mission 10), it seemed as if the new player was not doing any of the things that I've written on it's AI table. They just did the default idle things like gathering gold and wood, repairing etc.
Here's my mission 10's .sms file, you can view it from here:
http://pastebin.com/F9kSgMaZ
As you can see, player 0 (red) is the new one that I've created, and I've assigned it as the human player's ally. But the problem is, I don't know how to assign this AI I've newly created for them ("local hum_exp_10_ally"). So, even though the enemy AI works the same as before, the newly added ally AI does nothing.


Is there any advice that you could give me about this?

Alright pm sent :P

Btw, I can make further changes to the previous maps and fix the things that are still prevalent, but I also wanna decide that after watching you how you handle the maps.

29
I learned how to create my own triggers in wargus, I'm having an orgasm right now.

Heheh okay I got it working now, thanks. I didn't need the program though, I just needed to extract the .sms file and keep it there without putting it back in x'D Seems it does overwrite the one inside the archive.
