It's a good idea, but not the map type selection. Not a lot of people make melee maps anymore, maybe do something a little broader, or an altered melee gametype, and you'd get a decent ammount of people into this competition.

I really dont think you guys understand... this isn't a competition for just this site. >.> I know most of you guys don't really play the real WC3 game, but a lot of people still do.

Altered melee isn't possible due to the winning map being used in a real WC3 league. They don't play on custom maps, only the real deal. The winning map will be used by amateur and semi-pro wc3 players. Maybe even a few pros if the map is good enough.

I only posted this here because I knew that this site had great terrainers and great map makers in general. I really respect the people on this site for their skill, and I really thought that some of you would enter. Sadly, it appears that everyone here has lost touch with the WC3 community...

I have already had a bunch of submissions, so if some of you still plan on entering, I wish you good luck!

5 People before me posted a reply to your OP. 5 people = TH's very large community?

And The whole WC3 community now only plays Melee?

You generalize too much.

And melee turned me off too.

Including you and rappunk, make that 7. I'm pretty sure rappunk's entry was just a joke.

People still like playing melee, myself included, it's just that making melee maps is boring.

I feel offended.
You changed my mind and now you think my entry is probobly a joke.
Maybe it was a bad idea putting effort in..
Clearly you dont know me...
But maybe I should take it out. :(

Wait, that map wasn't a joke? So you seriously don't know that you need a gold mine to play a melee game? You also need an opponent, your map is only made for 1 player.

Hard to think of a map being anything other than a joke if its not even playable.

I laughed so hard I couldn't breathe.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?

    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.

    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
