NOOO WAAAY

[Undeadspiral]

How are people so good already!?!?!

ARG I don't understand how people can be so good with the editor, so quickly.

[GralaminShieldheart]

@Undeadspiral Actually this was made during the beta, a few days after it first came out.

As for how we are so good already - we've used similar products before. Drawing upon existing experience makes things easier.

[Undeadspiral]

I used the Wc3 editor some, never was too good at it, mostly made maze games. but man... no matter what I look at, anything besides games like the now popular nexus wars/income wars, I feel like I suck at making things. but yea, I'm still working on it, slowly. But any tips on how to start off? Because making maze games in wc3, isn't exactly to helpful, for making anything besides mazes.

[GralaminShieldheart]

@Undeadspiral Well, Its hard to give general advice. I'm a Computing Scientist, so It comes naturally to me to break things down into component steps. I'd recommend the same: Break it down into steps.

Creating a map could be broken down to the following steps for instance: 1) Come up with Concept, 2) Implement Data elements 3) Implement terrain and Regions 4) Implement Triggers, 5) Test, 6) Expand 1-5 until map is a state you are happy with, 7) Publish.

Message me if you want more info.

[SkwerlStyle]

the music is from fable 2!

[GralaminShieldheart]

@SkwerlStyle What? No it isn't. It's from Starcraft.

[zaspo]

@SkwerlStyle  yeah gralamin is right its from SC2, havnt you played the game?

[MashuOni]

@SkwerlStyle wow.. you fail.

[zazzoa]

[OldsXCool]

Meh...I have a good remake of this game for PS1. This is crap.

[DifferantProd]

[man0204]

[evildog188]

@feecle if you havent seen the new bnet yet theres no ums its just popular games show up first (popular it means how many times played in the last hour)

[Feecle]

[jamakasis18]

ggggggggggggggggggggoooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooddddddddddddd­dddd gggggggggggggggg aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[LasTCursE69]

some different weapon upgrades or even ships will make the game better i think :P

[JEV03]

I may not have liked the original Asteroids game, but I loved how everything looped from one side to the other and I'm excited to see that you pulled it off here. I can't wait to see more!

[facelessone86]

I can forsee a awesome multiplayer

[lethalized]

Wow Nice ! :D

[Zonde32]

maybe you could work on the lag by having a camera that follows the ship alittle closer. like in the old game :D this is insane i wish i could do this

[GralaminShieldheart]

@Zonde32 It's actually Fraps thats causing the lag. When I actually play it I'm at around 200 FPS.

[Zonde32]

ah ok :D but i still think it would be cool if it was like in the old game ^^

[GralaminShieldheart]

@Zonde32 Depends on the version of Asteroids you are actually looking at. The very original Asteroids, back on the Arcade machine with vector graphics, did not have a moveable camera, and it is that version I am emulating.

[Zonde32]

ok :D i was thinking of the 1993 version.. i think it was that year anyway

[toyluvers]

@GralaminShieldheart what happens when you fill the score bar?

[GralaminShieldheart]

@toyluvers Currently nothing. It would be easy enough to do, say, an extra life or something. Also, If I was to redo it, Lives would be icons in the corners instead of a bar.

[Lildj72]

Thats awesome man!

[tyrindor]

Holy long loading times batman, Is that the map causing that or your computer? It takes me maybe.... 1/4 of a second to load a map the first time?

Either way... looks good.

[Stuppern]

Purely awesome!

[Rohfaitchier]

How did you do the missiles ?

[GralaminShieldheart]

@Rohfaitchier Thats actually quite interesting. The missiles use two effects, linked to them by a behavior. One effect replicates the mothership, but searches for enemies. The other effect makes it instead of cloaking them, deal 1000 damage.

To get them to move and spawn are all in my triggers if you download the file.

[Xxelamoon]

pretty neat bro.

[piggymonsta]

FUCKING BEAST.

[ZergInfestedChrist]

Best Map editor Ever! Great editing skills man.

[Slaanash]
