Surely you have something. Some spells, terrain, anything! If that progress percentage is anyway accurate, surely you must have some noticeable work done.

Features

* Battle-Music System
* Item-Attachment System
* Camera System
* Spell System

Everyone says they're gonna have features like that in their map, and they rarely even see the light of day Any description of how these things are going to work? Battle system immediately gives me the idea of Final Fantasy's battle system, is it going to be like Final Fantasy, or something completely different?

Also, what about your AoS map?

Yeah, I'm making a video.

They are already created. And you know I'm capable of doing it.
The video is about those. And it's a battle-music system, not battle system. When you are attacked, it shifts music.

Taking a small break

I do...? Enlighten me as to why I should know

And it's a battle-music system, not battle system

Then this was a typo?

Advanced battle systems

Anyway, battle-music sounds lame Would be way more fun to have something like FF battle system than changing the music

I know you know

Yup.

How is the FF battle system?

 

[Flare]

This is FF Battle system (best video that I can find, there's probably more)

The whole Option menu (with the Attack and, for Squall, Rensokuken choices) probably isn't needed, but the shifting camera to suitable battlefield, allowing row swaps (probably didn't show it there, but I think in FF games, back row are less likely to cause aggro or something) would be a nice addition

I know you know

No, I don't. If you want to continue this, do it via PM or something, no point filling the thread with "yes you do" and "no i dont"

Yup.

Fix it then? Doesn't appear to be changed at the moment

I am making such a thing for the map Thanks.
Actually, it's just a multiboard with 2 possibilities, one named "Attack" and one named "Defend". Then there is an indicator (>>) out side the string. Easy done.

> Fix it then? Doesn't appear to be changed at the moment

Done.

I uploaded a video.

 

[Flare]

Video isn't appearing. It should be
[noparse][YOUTUBE]g_qKYoIoyx4[/YOUTUBE][/noparse]

And I can't see squat of what's happening at the start of the video. Only thing I can see is some bonus damage being gained from that item you dropped and picked up again.

Item-Attachment System

Item attachment system? As in, if you have a sword in your inventory, you'll have a sword on your hero? Yawn

coorporation

That word doesn't exist - it's cooperation

Sound would do wonders in a video displaying a battle-music system. As for the rest it doesn't seem original at all, considering you even wrote that you basically took some guys systems and remake them in JASS.

Yes, I know, I'm making more videos and screenies.

Yes.

Yes, though this isn't the only systems. As stated above, I'm making more videos and screenies.

I'm just giving my opinion, and common fact (i.e. most RPG's claim to have this, that and the other thing, but end up having nothing). There are a large number of maps which claim to be the best thing since sliced bread, but I haven't seen any that haven't (a) been discontinued since the maker couldn't live up to the claims, or (b) have been completed, but were disappointing. I'm not saying MCR-ELSKER can't make the map, just incase you get that idea

And please:
1) Don't rant about stuff you don't have a clue about I can only speak for myself here, but I can make those systems if I wanted to, and had the time to do so, but I have better things to do

2) If you're gonna rant, try not to do it in someone else's thread. I've probably caused enough clutter with the "ye you do", "no i dont" thing, so we should just leave it at that. If you want to someone, PM is probably a much better option than doing it in other user's threads - less hassle for mods to deal with

My only advice is to make it as little of a grind (attacking creeps again and again to level up) and more based on dungeons, quests (that don't involve killing loads of one type of monster), and "puzzles".

Oh no no, I am doing so much for battling to be fun. But of course, an rpg shouldn't only be battling and quests.

I do not want to be left alone. I like critism. Without critism, a map maker is nothing. And personally I know, that the most of the people who have posted in this thread can make those systems, some of them with ease.

You are right. But I have found a way to keep on going;
Create systems, terrain, spells, systems, terrain, terrain. And with UMSWE it's fun to make terrain.

I would like to anounce, that since my pc crashed during saving, the map have been put back in more early progress. The battle system still is there, but the attachment system is gone, and I will not create a new one.

This wasn't actually bad, because I felt that I was trapped in the map, somewhere. Now I will focus greatly on the terrain, when not working on War of the Three Hammers.

Right now I will gladly take system and terrain ideas.
