This is a 1 player game I am decently far in making. Take the role of a priest in a cursed village, and solve the mystery of the evil that went on there. I am finished with the terrain, and have most of the important items created. now I need to figure out the camera, and create more npc's. please note that this game is mostly about figuring out what happened to the village, so it isn't to focused on combat, unlike most wc3 games.

Well, sounds like a pretty cool game... from the screenshots, it looks like the terraining could be improved. Try to make it more dark, scary, and more realistic.

Someone here made a tutorial for "dark, scary" terraining... I tried to search for it but I can't find it. :( Maybe you could search around for it because it was pretty good. If I find it, I'll post it here.

Could you give us more gameplay details maybe... like what is unique about it? or is it more like those classic maps.

I guess the terrain needs a littlebit more doodads and stuff. I'll work on it after the main game triggering is done.

Anyway, its basically a investigate whats going on, and discover the next clue kindof game. you are a priest from the city investigating the blight thats poured out of the graveyard from a pentagram shaped sacraficial structure that appeared a few nights ago. Anymore would reveal the story. there are several locations in the city, which is on the edge of a forest. Some locations include the graveyard and the ruined church, part of the forest, many of the villagers houses, an inn a fortress made specifically for a certain part of the game, and the townhall like area (well thats most of the areas, lol)

You can here several rumors at the inn, many of which will reveal more about the world they live in, but still not be story related.


Here is the map so far, triggers and all. its obviously not done yet, as you cant even get too far, but it will give you the main idea of the map. almost to one of the combat parts.

    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    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
