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 !

Very happy to get Arkless's help on this, if anyone else is interested let me know.

Zero, I wasn't able to register on Sc2mapstar, and where do I put requests in this forum?

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

  • The Helper The Helper:
    Another bot invasion 493 members online most of them bots that do not show up on stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I'm looking at a solid 378 guests, but 3 members. Of which two are me and VSNES. The third is unlisted, which makes me think its a ghost.

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
