Most of you are going to wonder what "Vampire Slayer [Re-Bled]" is.

Well, Vampire Slayer (aka VS) is a miniature AoS made by moi, Alexander! :)

Vampire Slayer [Re-Bled] (aka VS[RB]) is the second version of this AoS.

The storyline behind VS is as follows:

For years, Alexander Stinda has been on the run, avoiding the watchful gaze of the High Guardians, and their pet Hunters. For years, Alexander has hidden, and eluded his persuers. But now, the time for running has come to and end. The time for bloodshed is now.

So, Richard, Alexander thought to himself as he stood upon the edge of his camp. Thomas has sent his best High Guardian out to catch me, has he? Figures. Why would Thomas show his face with someone else begging to kiss up and do it for him? Alexander mentally brought himself to a cliff overlooking the enemy camp.

Whoa.

A hundred feet down, and a few yards away, there wasn't just a strike force. There was an army. Guardians and Hunters huttled around burning campfires, struggling to keep warm. Saviors, rare but powerful types of Guardians could be seen walking here and there, probably on business errands. In the far back, Alexander caught glance of a familiar face.

Richard. The man was younger then Alexander's 400 years, much younger indeed. But he was powerful for such a young High Guardian. Thomas had sent Richard out months ago, and ever since, Alexander had been running. Not running from Richard, of course, but running to people. His line of Vampires, known only as the Blood Brothers. He would be meeting them in mere days, along with their army of fledglings.

But he hadn't counted on this. Richard's army of Guardians, High Guardians, Saviors and Hunters could not reach the Blood Brother base camp. He'd have to turn and fight them now. Or at least stall them.

Again, he moved himself with his mind, this time back to his base. There, a few of his fledglings were over looking the Vampire spawn, mindless zombies of Alexander's Vampiric army. He quickly sent out the commands to his fledglings with his mind, telling them to get ready. The first wave was up in minutes, marching slowly but surely to the High Guardian's camp. But they were ready.

"My lord," one of Alexander's Fledglings said, "The Guardians are attacking in force!"

Alexander could only smile.

"Good. Blood runs faster that way."

VS consisted of a 3 lane AoS, crammed into a 32x32 space. It has captureable neutral bases, two powerful custom heroes, and a ton of action in such a tight space!

VS[RB] just made it even better. The two neutral bases now spawn extra units for the owner, there's a leaderboard to track the kills of the two heroes, Alexander was re-balanced, and one of his old unused moves was replaced, Richard is going to be completely revamped, and both of them will be getting brand new custom models, courtesy of Rinpun.

I wouldn't mind some feedback on VS before I release VS[RB]. You can get it here, at the bottom of Post 1. Sadly, this version doesn't have the new AI, so playing 1 player isn't as fun. However, if you can get a friend, you can still go 1 v 1!

I'm surprised that you and Ace don't get together and do something jointly, as you both seem to specialize in the small AoS style maps

So...Who's bleeding?

It was just a fancy way to say "Version 2" other then saying "Version 2"

It might be prudent for you to update this thread such that people can download and discuss it. Most of the VS chat is in the secret level and out of the eyes of the mainstream.

    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

    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.
