Guide - Good RPG

Update

Added 1 more hint and also a neatural section.

What happened here we can't let this die. Lets keep this up and running

 

[Shadows]

Its a tutorial... Why should you keep it going it should be for referance and reading. And shouldent it be in the Tutorial section not here?

Overall its nice to read, gives you a good idea for most of the things but you dident really do that much... you only gave links to others ideas / triggers. Try makeing some for yourself and geting your own codes in it. It would look better.

 

[Battlemapsta]

Thing is that I'm not so awesome at explaining codes so why make a new tutorial about it when there are like 2-3 tutorials about it already plus they explain it simply.
The editting is for more ideas of course.
Also first you post a tutorial here and see if a mod will accept it into the tutorial section.

bump

Horray I am installing warcraft 3 now but I'm gonna have to sleep so my fun will begin tommorow.

As usual I won't have any bnet fun

 

[stavious]

Good, it looks much better now and is easier to read .

 

[Battlemapsta]

Yea. I still wonder why no one feels like responding
Oh well time to have fun with wc3 now

 

[Battlemapsta]

K since I see more people join up the rpg contest I will bump it at least one more.

 

[Andrewgosu]

Very nice and detalied, but if you added pictures to the text, it would be even better

 

[Battlemapsta]

I have no idea for what reason though. The only example is a huge rpg map.
So in other words videos or the map itself can improve this

 

[stavious]

So this isn't going into the tutorial section is it?
Oh well... I still put a link to it on the RPG contest so don't worry .

 

[Battlemapsta]

Heh I hope thx for keeping it alive.

 

[Badozz]

can you save with that save/load system that which quests did the character complete and where was he and what items did he own?

 

[Battlemapsta]

Yes it saves level, items, abilities, and all current data back then.

 

[Badozz]

and can someone write an easier tutorial like this: http://world-editor-tutorials.thehelper.net/cat_usersubmit.php?view=20909

 

[Battlemapsta]

Bump.
I need more support
Also I editted the boss fight part and fixed the typo in neatural.

RPG Ideas

These are ideas i'm using in an RPG called Village, its about a villager who leaves his village to do a few quests for the council and eventually gets tied up in an ancient secret of the land.

Anyway back on topic these are a few spell i'm using:
Ice bridge: causes a bridge to come up across a river(good for secret areas)
Unlock: Plays a cinematic of you shooting a ball at a gate and opening it.
Spell book: contains 5 chapters of spells that you can use, but you have to find the pages that have been torn from it.

Ideas:
When in a boss battle, a cinematic plays, you're blocked off from the exits, and you have to kill it using a special way.
e.g. One of my bosses is a giant elemental but keeps changing element and you have to use the elemental pits to inflict damage.

The Mystical Magical Guitar: In a secret area you find arthas rocking on his guitar and he will give you the MM Guitar, its a spell that has the icon, unsummon building (rock symbol) and when you use it Earth, Fire, Air plays.


Happy RPGing

PS i'm still looking for someone to create a villager model with multiple animations: http://www.thehelper.net/forums/showthread.php?t=45847

Hello, I was hoping that you may be able to post a little thing on your tutorial instructing young map makers on how to equip special efects onto a unit when he aquires an item like MASTER CRAFTER. so when he picks up a sword he gets a sword in hi shand. please add this to your thread and also a list of attatchments if possible =D

 

[Battlemapsta]

Hmmm good idea this should be a good addition to optional usage in a rpg. I'll get to editting soon.
