News: The Modding Hub in New Design

For months, this website has been left unupdated, and it has been on a stage of dormancy recently, mainly because of the development of my new maps and a long vacation back from before, but finally, a new upgrade for The Modding Hub is here!

Significant improvements in design were the new banner image, the new sidebar background and the new blog post background. The change in design is important, the previous form of the website looked almost bland. The admin profile widget has been moved to the bottom of the blog posts. The new banner image is probably the most important among all the design changes. There are new sidebar widgets added and some widgets have new styles to redefine their looks.

Alongside the new design comes my newest map, Tropical Assault. It is a revolutionized footman wars map that seeks to form a new standard for the genre. Read the post for more info about this new map.

Some contents in various posts have also changed and I removed the Navigation Bar. Instead, I have changed the nav bar to a custom list menu divided into two portions, the Main Menu (the site's main sections) and the Other Stuff (miscellaneous things that are really important).

However, these things are just the tip of an iceberg. A dozen of changes, big or small will be made in a weekly basis. I planned for a World Editor F.A.Q. to be put in this site soon and a few widgets.

For now, don't hesitate to explore more of the website's features and content. If you like the new changes, send a comment to the blog. I'm interested in further improving the site with your great ideas!

Good luck, and always have fun!

Tropical Assault

Status: Currently in development.
Release Date: July 10, 2008
Total No. of Versions: 5
Available Versions: v1.0, v1.1, v1.2, v1.3, v1.4, v1.4b, v1.4c, Latest Version - v1.5b

Introduction:

This is a unique Footman Wars map that seeks to set a new standard for the genre itself. Complete with Race selections, Unit Class selections and a variety of upgrades and Heroes for each Race, Tropical Assault isn't just any other Footies map. Conduct epic battles or short confrontations, level up your Heroes and elites, and put your mircromanagement skills to the ultimate test.

Development:

I have made an effort to create a unique Footies map that isn't just limited to what it is right now. I may not have enough time right now and I'm too preoccupied to make major improvements for the map. Right now, I'm developing a CTF map, but I will release versions (with minor alterations) on a weekly basis. Right now, I'm experimenting on some 'expansions' for the map, made plans and the like, and it turned out well. This kinda solves the problem caused by the very small playing space in most footies maps, which makes 'em a bit boring. Yes in future versions, there will be more races and, the map will become wider and more spacious.

Tropical Assault Walkthrough:

At the start of the game, a selection dialog will appear. Pick one Race from the selection, then select a Unit Class from another selection dialog. Each Race is unique and contains 3 Heroes to choose from. Your overall forces will be determined by the Race you've chosen, so pick one carefully. The objective is to destroy the opponent's Town Hall, and do the same until all of enemies are wiped out. However, this is not the only thing you're going to do.

• Races - There are several unique Races to choose from (e.g. Human, Undead, Blood Elf). Each Race has its own set of 3 Heroes and a variety of Upgrades to be researched. But you still need to select a Unit Class for that Race.
  
• Unit Class - The Unit Class is the type of units that will determine what units will be spawned from your base. There are three Unit Classes; Melee, Ranged and Magic. Melee units tend to use hand-to-hand combat as a weapon against enemies. Ranged units have somewhat effective ranged attacks which keeps them out of harm's way in the heat of battle. Magic units are simply known as spellcasters. They have two spells that they can use and each Race's Magic-class units have different and unique spells. Each Unit Class has its own strengths and weaknesses when it comes to their attributes, so keep this in mind.
  
• Upgrades - You can dramatically improve the strength and effectiveness of your forces by researching upgrades from your Town Hall. There are also special upgrades called Training. These upgrades allow your units to acquire their offensive, defensive and magic (Magic-class) abilities through training. There are also upgrades for your Towers. Those upgrades are located in the towers themselves, not in the Town Hall. These upgrades improve the tower's effectiveness against incoming intruders who try to attack your town hall.
  
• Siege Units - Each Race has its own Siege Unit. These are vehicles that you can build from your Town Hall. Siege Units have very long ranged attacks and can deal a considerable amount of damage, and more of the damage against buildings, you can only handle a few at a time, though.
  
• Rally Points - You can set the Rally Point of your Town Hall to any place you want. Not only that, units that are spawned from your Town Hall will automatically proceed to the set Rally Point, which makes it very useful.
  
• Strategies - Your Hero has the ability to use Strategies. These are commands given to all of your units except your Hero of course. Strategies order your units to mass-attack at the center or to one team's base.
  
• Bonus Gold - When a Hero kills an enemy unit, there will be a chance to give out additional gold. Killing enemy Heroes gives out even more bonus gold. This gold is based on the slain Hero's level
  
• Powerups - When a Hero kills any enemy unit, a random powerup will drop. These powerups can be either usable Runes or Tomes which increase a Hero's attributes.
  
• Items - With the introduction of v1.5a, there is now a new Item Plaform for each team, adjacent to that team's base. In this area, there are various merchants and item shops which sell different kinds of useful items, armament and potions, sold at reasonable prices.
  
• Game Commands/Game Modes - There are various game commands (e.g. -ms, -uc (unit count), -rt) available in the game. There's one game mode available, Magic Mayhem (-mm). When enabled, this disables spell cooldown and mana costs of spells for all units.
  
• Boss Creeps - With the introduction of v1.5a, the Hall of Tropics no longer contains powerful items. Instead, it sells out hireable Boss Creeps. These are very powerful creeps that are much like bosses, sold with a high price tag.
  
• AI - Tropical Assault also has AI for CPU players. The AI is really simple, so they can only select their own Race, Unit Class and Heroes, learn skills for their Heroes, and periodically mass-attack their units to the center of the map.

• Added the Injury System which is created by Hero12341234.
• Added the -rt, -zoom and -uc commands. -rt removes all text from the screen. -zoom adjusts a camera's distance. The distance of the default Warcraft III view is 1650. Higher than that, it will go higher. Lower than that, the camera gets closer to the ground, but it should not exceed 700. -uc counts all of your living units, summoned units, wards and heroes.
• Added a new game mode or simply a special game command, Magic Mayhem (-mm). When enabled, this will disable cooldown and mana cost for all spells, and it is obvious that the magic-class units will have a better advantage, but this is only for fun and shouldn't be used in regular games or official tournaments. However, you cannot enable this mode after 80 seconds in the game time has elapsed.

• The Human Sorceress' Solar Beam ability now has a longer distance, but it now has 185 mana cost.
• The Orc Shaman's Forked Lightning ability now has 180 damage per target.
• Units of all computer players in a team are now given control to the human players in that team.
• A dozen minor bugs and flaws have been fixed as well.

v1.2

• Fixed the Undead defensive ability, Blight, so that it could really give out 60% regeneration instead of .60 HP per second.
• The Defensive Ability Training's tooltip is now fixed. It will say that it will apply for all classes. It can now be researched w/ no requirements, but the gold cost has been increased a bit.
• The Bonus Gold system doesn't work for Summoned units anymore.
• Fixed a bug in the Bonus Gold system, the amount of gold given when a hero is killed is dependent on it's unit level, not the Hero Level, so I made it to be linked to the Hero Level of the slain hero.
• For AI's, Heroes now take more time to revive when they have a higher level. Each level is a second longer.

*There are not much changes in this version, most of the time just small changes. I'll add more races in the future, as well as new features to make the map more interesting to play.

v1.1

• Fixed a bug where units have food costs and therefore some texts appears above your screen.
• Fixed a nasty bug where units are still spawning even when the said player is defeated.

v1.0

• First Release

News: Project 08-08-08 Swap

As you can see Project 08-08-08 didn't receive any necessary updates. Well, here are the updates:

I found out that The Best Catch takes too long to actually release the map and finish it's major components such as triggers, terrain and it's main features before August 8. So I have decided that I swap TBC with two fast-paced maps, Insurrection and Wolfgang CTF. But don't worry, TBC will start development after Project 08-08-08.

Insurrection is a map which I have created for The Hive Workshop's Paired Mapping Contest #1 with Diablo-dk as my parter but I haven't succeeded in submitting my entry. Fortunately I have attached this map in THW's pastebin a long time ago so that in case my laptop goes haywire I could claim the map again. The only thing I need to do for Insurrection is to balance attributes and add some heroes for the remaining 3 races.

Wolfgang CTF is a team-based Capture the Flag (CTF) map with unique features not found in any other CTF. The title may be related to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, the Philippine metal band Wolfgang or the chef Wolfgang Puck, but in fact I combined Wolf and gang which simply means a mob of wolves.

Thanks, and good luck!

News: Some personals, and updates.

Well I've not completely started development of my latest map yet, but I have proposed to create a blog which contains all of my poems and writings, still using Blogger because it's quite versatile. I've been writing a few poems these days and I'm glad that I could show it all to you guys in the next blog.

Then I saw an awesome website named Manga University. It's a website where you learn how to draw anime/manga from the ground up, and supports online enrollment for manga lessons and art supplies (though I'll not do that, I'm looking forward to read the online tutorials there for free). They also have the How to draw Manga series of books from which you can learn how to draw anime even better, I hope I could read it someday. I always practice drawing manga/anime everyday between 10:00 and 12:00 at the night, the time where I fix my stuff for tomorrow's schooling. I'm good (not that good, but I draw often) at drawing but I like manga/anime better since I like it and love it, it suits my personality. Then my drumming, and more.

Besides that, I'll start planning on the development of my map, because August 8 is two months away! I'll be developing a batch of maps before 2009 begins and it will be the biggest map-making endeavour I've ever made.

For TSoT (The Sands of Time), I've got 2 modelers but I asked them to take a break first and do modelling next year.

Scourge and Wars

Status: Finished
Release Date: May 5, 2008
Total No. of Versions: 1
Available Versions: v1.0

While I'm planning for my next major project, The Best Catch, I got a little bored and decided to create a fast-paced map named Scourge and Wars, a map involving a battle between two undead forces. I created this map within an approximate total of 8 hours.

Use your undead army to crush the forces of your opponents. Destroy the opponent's Crypts to win.

Units are automatically trained even after researching an upgrade, but you can't stop training the units in your Crypt.

You can choose any undead hero in an Altar of Darkness, but you may only have one hero and only the hero you have first chosen.

Inspired by Anitarf's Old School Alliance Tactics (though I made this from scratch, credit goes to anitarf for the Build Queue Cleanup trigger).

If you find any bugs then please tell me and I'll fix it on the double. The map's 4-player gameplay stays the same due to it's size.

Map is open source to make it 'educational', you can be able to use the triggers.

Thank you. Enjoy!

News: New Navigation Bar Buttons

As you can see, there are new buttons in the navigation bar. I've designed them yesterday and I did this to make my website more interesting and possibly to gain site traffic.

I've made more than a dozen improvements for this blog, and I'm looking forward to convert this blog into a full-scale website/modsite at the end of the year before the Modding Hub's 1st anniversary.

I'm working on a new banner image for The Modding Hub, this time more interesting and attractive for modders and gamers alike.

Coming Soon: New Banner Image!

~jonadrian619

News: New Background Image

Finally, I've created a custom background for this site. The theme is sort of a Warcraft III undead race and based from in-game UI images.

I will put this in my site shortly.

Coming soon: New banner image and custom Navigation Bar buttons!

Hero Contest #2 at The Helper.net

My Entry

The Hero Contest #2 finally came to a close. My Hero and of the rest is now finished and ready for testing.

The judging will begin soon as well. You can vote for which of the heroes you like.

Project Revolution Mod

I've decided to make a better post for Project Revolution than of the last post for that mod. That mod is so cool, and it's quite successful as well, that's why I love the mod, and Starcraft is better in 3D like Starcraft II.

Project Revolution is a Warcraft 3 Total Conversion mod where Starcraft: Brood War will be converted into full 3D. The mod will stay true to the original Starcraft: Brood War and no additional things, simply the stuff in the SC: Brood War game. The group which developed this mod is Snowflake Entertainment.

Although it is not released yet, the first demo for this mod was released last year in December 2007. The battle between the Terrans in the demo map was great and it looked better in 3D.

For now, the Terrans can be playable in the mod's current state. They say that the Protoss and Zerg races will be coming out soon but I have also seen some screenshots of some Zerg units in the links above, better check it out!

Here are some screenshots of the mod I found (courtesy of ModDB):

Terran Base

Dune: Arrakian Wars Mod

Dune: Arrakian Wars is a Command & Conquer Tiberium Wars based mod where the game Emperor: Battle for Dune is brought back with even greater detail and a high-end look. The members of Thundermods.net developed this amazing modification for CnC Tiberium Wars.

Demolition X

Status: Currently in Development
Release Date: April 12, 2008
Total No. of Versions: 1
Available Versions: v1.0

Description:
Terrorism, Warfare, Strategy and Conquest. Take part in this battle for conquest in order to claim the prize and achieve victory.

You can get the best gaming experience in DX when you play this w/ your friends on fullhouse!!

Objectives:
The objective of the game is to get the Treasure Chest at the middle of the maze, then you have to return it to your base.

Features:
- Created from scratch.
- A maze inside the map, filled with creeps. Custom pathmaps that I created were used in this maze so that the doodad count will be low.
- 3 goblin sapper-type units which have individual elemental powers. Plus they are the only units who can carry the Chest and return it to base.
- 4 types of Infantry-type units are available as auxiliary units in your goal to take the Treasure Chest.
- 3 types of Vehicles are also available to build. They are only auxiliary units like the Infantry-type units, and cannot take/carry items nor the Chest, but they are exceedingly powerful. Because of their tremenduous power, too bad you may only handle a number of vehicles of the same type at a time.
- Players can adjust the zoom level of their cameras using the -zoom XX command. Minimum value is 700 and maximum value is 3000.
- Players can also switch to two camera types: Vertical Camera and Regular Camera. Vertical camera is the camera where it faces the ground directly, useful for navigation. Regular Camera is the standard Wc3 camera, and this allows you to have a better view of the eyecandy and chaos of the battles. Just type either -regcam or -vertcam.
- Custom Unit Queue and Progress Bar created by me.
- Items are also available as apparatus to augment the effectiveness/versatility of your forces.
- There are Portals around the map for easy access. Nope, they're not regular waygates, they are triggered waygates and you just have to move your units inside the Portal and they're are transpored to the opposite Portal.
- Periodic Income. Players recieve 75 gold every minute. But you have to rely on slaughter to get some quick cash in order to train/build more units.
- Detailed minimap.

Some Notes:
- You cannot enter in the base camp of another team!! For this reason, you need to use Portals in order to enter those inaccessible areas around the map.
- This is a competitive multiplayer map and it has no AI. It's very difficult to make even simple AI for this map because of the nature of the gameplay.
- Micromanagement might be crucial to the gameplay as you've got a lot of units and vehicles at your disposal and other players might be having an assault against you while he/she attempts to take the Chest.

Change Log:
v1.0
- First Release.

News: New Demo Maps Section and other new features.

It's been a long time since I've implemented changes to the Modding Hub. I've added a new Demo Maps section which allows map-makers to try and test the demo maps provided. The demo maps are meant to demonstrate the basic and advanced aspects of map-making in the Wc3 World Editor, so they stay open source. Over time, new demos will be added.

I've also added my proverb that's always shown at the bottom of the pages.

I'm still working on the other planned sections for this website:

Tutorials Section - A section containing the modding tutorials I've written.

Terrain Gallery - A gallery where the terrain pictures that show the terrain I've created for Warcraft III are showcased.

DuneWorld - A 'special' section in the Modding Hub for my favorite RTS games, Dune, that were created by Westwood Studios and based on Frank Herbert's Dune. From information related to Dune games, to cool downloads, to Dune modding, you'll get what you need for Dune here.
