When a part of a map is undiscovered it remains dark, and you can't see the units but you can still see doodads and the terrain/cliffs. Is there a way to make this completely black so everything is hidden?
Also, i want a specific area to be unrevealable by spells and items. How to do this?
 
1- no clues

2- use pathing blocker and line of sight also, you might want to put that black thing so specials units still can't go by it, nor spell!
 
you got to change the map options to make the map total invisible there got to be a ckeckbox for that under 'scenario -> map options'

There's a 'Masked areas are totally invisible' checkbox. Is it that one?

Pathingblockers and boundary would make everyone unable to walk there. I want the area to be walkable, and also block spells.

EDIT: Woops. Double post. :D
 
you do it in game menu... before u start the game go to advanced options and set it there (don't know what it says, don't have wc3 open now...

But that's ingame right? I want it to be initally set, and unchangeable. :)

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/
