Here is an interesting game the strategy-minded among you might enjoy: Empire Attack! The game's basic idea is simple: you win by controlling the most squares on a gridded playing surface, expanding from square to square by putting a certain amount of population on each square. You have a home...

I'm not dead after all, it seems. Only members who have been here a while (2 years at least, I think) will remember me. For those who I didn't talk to much but were around at the same time, I was the naive young kid who was always throwing out random (and occasionally interesting or helpful)...

This is a basic guideline for beginning and even experienced mapmakers. It is just a rough, generic guide, though - keep that in mind if you choose to use it! You don't need to follow anything on it, but it can provide a generic timetable or checklist of sorts to use. Some steps would only be...

Hmm, for my as-of-now undisclosed WIP, I decided to create a third-person perspective, eye-level camera. As creating one for each of the ten players would be laggy and redundant, I decided to loop it all into one trigger. The trouble is, it crashes the whole game now. Can anyone explain why/fix...

Is it possible to change the texture/image of the backround sky? :D :P I believe I've heard of this being done before, but I am not sure how, if it is indeed possible.

I am starting now on my next miniproject, Tank Assault, and would like an opinion on the starting terrain before I continue. It will be a single player, yet hopefully fun and addictive, arrow key based game :). Here is the map; I only have a the very first part of the terrain down. :D The...

Occasionally, when im creating the terrain for my map, ill, for instance, build a 1' high wall with cityscape - dirt wall as the wall type. When I come back to it, I usually forget to switch to the cityscape wall type - dirt and use the tiled wall texture type instead. Then ... strange things...

Hmmm ... you know, I always get so sick of those cheap jurassic park games; the strategy is just to mass gun towers, which arent even relevant or related to the plot, and hunker down until you can build a fleet of tanks. It gets SOO boring and redundant, so I have decided to do a remake of these...

LOL in my map I wanted to do a tribute to Monty Python (warcraft did too :D) so I am going to be imputing a special code that, when typed, the player will hear one of the peasants quoting Monty Python and the Quest for the Holy Grail :D :D :D HELP HELP IM BEING REPRESSED -_-_-_-_-_-_- but I...

I like the new tutorial site updates, but I have a question thats been plaguing me for a while: is it just me, or is the text in the right hand part of the home section, primarily the latest news and and updates section, cut off slightly? I can still understand it from the words and context...

Hmmm, how strange, I was making my goblin wars map, and because the number of goblin units is ridiculously low, I decided to import some models and skins from wc3sear.ch --- it worked great the first time, and I used the tutorials here AND there to get my model in my map correctly. But, I...

Im working on a new map now, it is going to be an AOS style underground map, except that the teams are made of goblins instead of humans or undead or whatever :D. As soon as I figure out how the heck im supposed to get a 1.17 megabite screenshot into this thread, Ill do so, but until then id...

First off, like my alliteration? Um nvm, i have a question regarding the platform peril challenges, with the elevators and elevator walls and custom pathing and whatnot. How do you construct it? If its already been posted, then sorry that i missed it, could you send me in the right direction...

I know im going to sound like a total noob for saying this, but where can i find screenshots that iv taken in my games? :banghead: The answer is probably going to be so obvious ill break my skull on this wall taht never breaks ( :banghead: ) but i just cant find them.

Just curious , how do you change the 'quests' button in the upper = left hand part of the screen to, for instance, 'help', or 'info'? And is there a way to permanently 'black out' a portion of the map, so that none of the players can ever see it or anything it again? Thx! :)

Hey, im relatively new to the warcraft editor, and although iv learned a lot, what i want to do is relatively complex compared to what iv done before. (highligted parts malice might be interested in for his map :D ) Im trying to make a custom castle creator game, called castle commander...
