Server.War2.ru / Well I promised a test today. Warcraft 2.5.

« on: April 05, 2020, 10:24:32 PM »

So yesterday I decided i wasn't at all happy with the layout of my map, so i dug deep and revamped the entire layout to make it exactly like gow. Now it is very nearly a perfect 1 to 1 copy of the map gow. Still a bit of fine tuning to do with the layout of the roads etc. So yeah instead of imputing the unit data like I was planning on doing, I ended up spending the last 20 hours on the layout. Of course in the process I ended up breaking a bunch of my systems, so they will need to be revamped. The collisions are a mess. None of the unit data is done, The halls can be build right next to a gold mine, and a bunch of other stuff.

With all that said, here is a sneak pre-alpha peak at warcraft 2.5 in all it's glory. Enjoy. You can make flyers and look around at least

Heads up- You must manually select the human race to play this map, otherwise no units will spawn for you.

Server.War2.ru / Thinking of hosting a $50 tourney this sunday for war2.5. How many would play?

Once the map is finished I'm going to hold an open tourney for all players for $500 to promote the mod. In the mean time the human race is almost done and i want to test it out. How many people would be interested in a $50 tourney exclusive to war2 players and have war3?

Server.War2.ru / War2.5 Warcraft 3 reforged mod.

« on: February 25, 2020, 06:05:40 PM »

So with warcraft 3 reforged out i was thinking of making a new mod for it. I made one back in the day and had a lot of fun doing it. I have experience doing war3 mods, skyrim mods, dragon age mods, and a few others. My skyrim mods were actually pretty popular and got around 50k downloads over the years.

Anyway i thought it might be fun to collaborate with another old war2 player or two on this mod. My goal is to make war3 more war2 like. Not a total conversion, just a GoW style map with very war2 like gameplay on the war3 engine. Not looking to make a perfect port, more like an updated warcraft 2. The kind of sequel i would have liked to see in the first place.

If anyone has any interest in working together with this and has experience modding games gimme a shout. If anyone has some suggestions post them here.

Edit - Been working  on this all night. Starting out with 9-11 wars map and going to go all in to a gow style map. I have gotten to the point where you can wall in, rax and mill someone, and do some tower wars.

If anyone wants to help what i could really use is a spread sheet with all the unit, building, and upgrade costs and times. Another spread sheet will all the base dmg and upgraded dmg on all the units including towers.
