New map idea... Castlevania

Post by Kryptonyte »

I've been thinking of a map idea... now, I've edited maps before, but never made my own. (Editing with other Mods/Admins, too)

They were hosted on B.net, however, they never became too popular... so I just kind of gave up...
But, I've been wanting something to do for a while, and seems how I had a map idea anyways, I thought
I'd make my own map.

Map theme - Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow

Storyline - Dracula was killed, and now a new King of Vampires must be chosen.
You are one of the candidates for his position. You've developed newfound powers,
inhuman strength, speed, hearing, transformation abilities, and powerful magic attacks.
You've been trying to keep your powers in check, so no one notices... but new enemies appear.
There are other candidates for Dracula's position, and in order for them to get it... all other candidates must
be killed. You fight for your survival, and to be crowned the new King of all Vampires.

I've played this for the this, and I thought it'd make a fair WC3 game.
It'd be a solo map, but RPG in style. (Maybe making it into more players... MAYBE... I will think it over,
after I map out the terrain, and get some ideas on actual game-play)

So, here is why I started this thread...
I need a few people willing to help me make the map. This includes finding good models,
making triggering systems, testing the map, balancing units out, coming up with ideas,
and anything else that is needed.

If you're interested in helping, make a post. I will write a more in-depth story-line in a bit.

Questions or comments? Leave a post.

Side note - This map will only be given to the people who help me develop it. It will NOT be publicly released until all the bugs have been worked out. However, if you don't work on the map, but believe I would let you play the map, you can PM me, depending on who you are, I might give you the map. This is because I don't want it spreading around until after it's completed. The map won't be protected until it's ready for the public. (Yes, it will be protected in JASS, but feel free to hack it, if you can, nothing bad will happen to you. I won't ban you or anything, but I won't be hacking it for a request, myself. Others may feel free to do so)

Nice, thanks for all the support.
I will get back to all of you when I have mapped out the terrain.
If anyone has played this game (Like Vegas has) and knows
the entire map, and would like to make sure certain parts are
in the map, leave a post! (It's been a few months since I beat the game...
and my file is deleted, so I kind of forget a lot of the map... though I know it
pretty well...). I'm open to ideas that aren't from the map, like a special training area,
which I have been debating on putting in the map or not. Leave ideas/suggestions/comments.

I control his every breath.

I instigate your misfortune,
With the birth of killing trolls.

I awaken armageddon,
Feeding on a thousand souls.

Alright, I've ran into a small problem.

I've found what the castle looks like in the game, there is no way I can map it out,
it's effing huge, there is just no room, even with the map size set to max.

So... anyone want to be creative with it? I need a main hall, then 7 dungeons, and
then a throne room. I, myself, never really have been too creative when it came
to making drawings or anything like that... so yeah. = /
Anyone who would like to help make the terrain for the dungeon, just say so. = )
