End of Year Spell Contest - Flashy Summoning

[AceHart]

As long as the theme and the rules are followed... anything goes.
If 5 dummies doesn't cut... well, whatever, use more?



Then again,
IT SHOULD NOT LAG HORRENDOUSLY!

And, on a related note, by now those that submitted re-did so with their name somewhere in the map?

 

[monoVertex]

Not all of them did so.

??? I don't understand?

Wouldn't you just say....

And, on a related note, by now, those that did submit have redid it with their name somewhere on the name.....

English is confusing.....

And English is my fluent language.... the one I speak most....

 

[AceHart]

Most to all maps were submitted as something like "TH Contest.w3x" and no name anywhere, like in the description...
Which makes it somewhat non-obvious to see who made it.

Seems to have improved by now (based on "last edited by").

You wouldn't want points for someone else's map, would you?

 

[BlackRose]

I just meant the way you worded it....

 

[Draphoelix]

At least you got what he said/wrote..

Edit: Just tested the spells.

I found a bug with yours Infinitegde, when I casted the spell a couple of times, one time the spell didn't run, so I casted the spell again, the both instance ran at the same time and it sent the messege Warning! SetTimerStruct(Something) Collision: 1.

I got a replay in case you wanna see and fix it. (Got many replays, hope I uploaded the right one).

D.V.D Also that Demon Summoning was pretty laggy compared to the other spells, suggest you to cut down some effects. But that's your choice.

 

[BlackRose]

XeNIM666's Unleash Xaphros is laggy somewhat for me... and my computer is good! D.V.D is also laggy.

But I guess this computer is not as new....

1GB RAM
Intel Pentium Dual CPU @ 2.00ghZ

That is my specs....

 

[XeNiM666]

really?
we have 256 MB RAM and it didn't lag for me. I even spammed it 3 times

Anyways, i added the screenies

 

[monoVertex]

Many spells lagged for me. I dunno why though lol.

 

[BlackRose]

I found errors in Draphoelix's spell....
- When you cast it in water.... it looks weird.
- When you cast it on a cliff..... it moves strange.

EDIT: I went back to post #1.... and? I read through it... and?

 

[AceHart]

This is somewhat starting to look like discussion. At which point I would like to refer you back to post #1.


Though, then again:
> need to fix code

Clearly.
So far, after 20 tries to cast this, all ending in "Forget it, not here", my conclusion is "It doesn't work".



And, yes, some of them lag tremendously.
I understand this asked for "flashy", but, still... you may want to rework some parts...

 

[monoVertex]

My spell is finally done!

 

[D.V.D]

I was thinking of cutting off some effects, but I don't know which ones to cut off. I'll try to do something.
EDIT: took off about 300 SFX. Doesn't lag as much anymore.

Ya I know abt that bug, I have already attempted fixing it, but after like a couple hours of mishaps last night, I failed miserably ="( I m going to get back to it today lol.

Although now it seems like it wont matter cuz everyone elses owns mine :banghead: lol, amazing work ppl's =D

 

[UndeadDragon]

My spell is finally done!

Looks great Smith. :thup:

 

[Andrewgosu]

Just a work-in-progress.

Yes, this does not lag.

The name of the spell is "Shower of Light".

 

[monoVertex]

Thanks Undead!

And btw, it looks awesome, Andrew .

Speaking to self: damn it, why did he enter? >.<

 

[AceHart]

The image is somewhat misleading though, I was expecting to see that spiral...

> this does not lag

They all say so. Show me

My image?! There is a spiral in the spell too !

AceHart, a question: You never limited us to a single spell per user, in the rules. Considering that, could I submit a second spell? :3

Another question: would using simple Jass (no vJass) or outdated systems, even if it's correctly written, take from my coding points? In other words, do newer methods get more points than the older ones?

Thing is, I just read the vJass tutorials and I could rewrite the spell into vJass, but if it's not necessary, I don't want to waste that time.

I agree...
Can we create another spell?

I was planning to create another spell based on the same code.
