Hi guys, I'm currently looking for some experienced map maker(s) to work with me on a map I have in mind, since I just started with Sc2 map making it would be great to have someone to help me along so I can learn the ropes.
- OR - if you just wanna be buddies i'd appreciate that too.

Lil about me: I'm new to Sc2 map making, but made many many innovative SC and War3 maps, have a diploma in graphic design (folio: http://tinyurl.com/artelum), and i'm decent at programming. Studying Games Design Diploma at the moment.

Core gameplay aspects:
- Team TD, where you have to select a class such as: Supporter (build walls, stuns), Poisoner (poison towers, life % towers), Carry (DPS towers, splash damage), Sniper, Specialist (anti-air, anti boss etc).
So basically you really have to work as a team and play out your role effectively to win, and you can have pretty creative team class compositions happening too.

- You can place towers everywhere in the map. Inspires the theory - "Do anything to win. Be creative."

-(not decided) Towers of your class are all variations of one tower model, such as a Cannon, or a Sunken. I made the map Cloaked Cannon Defense in Sc1, some 8 years ago i think. It's pretty cool to have unique variations of towers that you are so accostumed to.

- Don't wanna spoil everything that's just a glimpse at some of the ideas I have.

Contact: Please post here and add me on msn: cixxyz[a]hotmail[d]com or skype: wemadefoxies if interested

Sounds interesting, I got some projects (2) running at the moment but my fellow map developers are a bit lazy so I haven't been able to do anything for a few weeks already. Let's see if this turns out better !

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.

    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though

    Heard Houston got hit pretty bad by storms last night. Hope all is well with TH.
