So... Im basicaly trying to keep this thread alive!!!

Do you need anyideas for some spells?
because I can help you think of names and such

Is Ira more of an elemental Caster of a certain type? (fire moves Only)
ect... or will he have a wide range of abilities like Flames and Ice and such?

Shadow has been away for a few days(I hope he's not having spyware problems)

But to help the thread out i think Ira should get a destructive like spell. Something that can cause major damage to units around him(Like soul Flare but a Wider range).

I know shadow is slowly processing this map, which is good, I wonder what else he will add in to it.....

P.S. Did anyone else notice that there's a Tavern with no triggs in it yet?

I have some bad news...Someone has hacked the crap out of my computer about a week ago(dumb hackers). The system files on my computer were corrupted and so I had to reformat and reinstall. Fortunately a few days before that, I had saved an unprotected version of my map on a floppy disk so I can still work on it. However my Starcraft disc and the files also got corrupted and messed up so I can't even install it. I will have to find a new sc disc to reinstall starcraft. I will be unable to log on bnet on sc or work on my map until then.

Correction... It turns out that the map saved on the floppy disk is another map. Sigh...Dumb hacker...My map is pretty much lost so I guess I'm gonna have to start on a new project unless any of my friends have an updated unprotected copy version of my map. So anyway, I will start on my new project right now.

Tdnfthe1 Are you sure that the copies of his map that you have are unprotected? Because he did say that he needs an UNPROTECTED map. Anyways, sorry to hear that you got hacked, it happens to a lot of people.

Yes, and he can unprotect them anyways since he's the1 who protected em(like it matters).

Show concern for shadowlash everyone! He has been to where most of us hate to go...

Got some good news. My friend had an unprotected copy of my map that was partially past the demo and I got it back from him. When the data on my computer were all lost so were a week of updates on the map, but I will redo the updates and continue to work on the map. So Shadowlion is back in business!

It's none other than PDF_Darkblade

. I never knew this would happened. Before the incident where all my data on my computer was lost, something funky about the music wav I tried to add in my map wasn't working right. I tried to add in a music wav in my map then protected it with proedit. When me and my friends tested it, music wasn't playing. So I showed PDF_Darkblade the bugs and music not playing. The wav played unprotected and luckily he had it, so I got it back.

Heya, I got some news. I have done a lot of updates. Here's some things I want to ask.
First, Would you guys want to download an updated version of the demo?
It will include bug fixes, higher level limits, a music wav when fighting the boss, a few more skills, and some other stuff. I can update the demo in a short time while still working past the demo portion.

Report, edit, etc...Posted by PodFedJay on 2005-04-04 at 16:21:45

I would love to download the updated version

. One suggestion, skills for players are... weird and needless (if that is a word). Maybe make it better? cooler? or delete em. Just my suggestion

OH that intro wav, LAW AND ORDER HA

1)Without skills you couldnt play the game, skill systems like this prevent noobs(maybe like yourself) from playing a map.
2)Make the spells cooler? they are already some of the most unique spells anyone has seen for awhile(aside a few accomplished map makers). So if you think he can make em cooler, define "Cool Skills".
3)Law and Order? you watch that? yuck.... the wav is from a pretty renowned playstation rpg(won't spoil the name of game). so yeah you were way off...
4)Did you beat the demo? Because no one thus far has beaten it yet.

On Topic:
1)Yes New demo would be Great
2)I don't think anyone beat the first demo... which is a small disapointment.
3)Is there gonna be a shop or some sort of money system in the game? Just curious.

Goodluck on the map and don't give up.

How could you not like the skills? They friggin' own like crazy. Well I guess it IS your opinion afterall....but still I think you just can't appreciate what he has done. Anyways Shadow nice job. Yes I think releasing an updated version would own. It would give people a better look at the game, + the new stuff you have done is really awesome. Only good things can come from this map. Keep it up and ignore bad comments like the one earlier. Feedback is good, but when it is false, I don't think it's good.

Okay, I have done a lot of updates on my map. In the updated version, I have
changed the experience receiving system. Now there is experience share. When a character makes a kill the character will receive the full experience, and a small portion of the experience will be shared with other party members so this will make levelign a little bit easier. I have also fixed some bugs/glitches, added a higher level limit, changed some text around(speech/dialogue and briefing), added a boss wav(a reason why the file size is pretty big), and more stuff in the game itself. You can download the updated version on my first post on this topic.

One more thing this map is still being worked on. Both the demo portion and and after that will still be updated. So once I make more changes, this will keep getting updated but that will take a while.

SHADOW YOU RUINED YOUR MAP!

THOSE ENEMIES IN THE BEGINNING CANNOT BE BEAT WITHOUT THE SORCERER'S BARRIER SPELL, BELIEVE ME YOU CANT WIN. AND I'VE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES NOW TO SAVE THE ELDER, IT CANNOT BE DONE. THE ENEMIES DESTROY HIM BEFORE I EVEN KILL 2 FIENDS. LOWER THE DAMAGE BACK TO 5 PLEASE, YOUR MAP HAS BECOME IMPROBABLE.

Woah, thats a big complaint. Try to lower it some. It was a small miscalculation, thats it. He will most likely fix it soon.

Report, edit, etc...Posted by indecisiveman on 2005-04-08 at 18:55:21

No zergling it wasn't a mistake. He is trying to make it harder. Most RPG's are short and easy, so he wants it long and hard(stop thinking dirty

). I do agree with dark that it is TOO hard, but it can be fixed with simply adding more potions?, raising armor of guys, or even lowering HP of lings. After testing it with Shadow I realized it needed three people to be possible, but it was still little hard. I suggest one of the three things I mentioned. Good luck Shadow, I will test whenever you want!

Is the map good because of the hard level, the triggering of the spells, the balancing of the units, storyline, or something else.

I really wanna know what I'm playing for here. And don't give me that "it's good just cuz it is"...

I am trying to make this map much enjoyable as possible so I am trying to put every idea and such as well as what people would want also. From the people I have tested with on working on this, they enjoy using the spells which are very useful(not like those in certain rpgs you just get a spell and it might become useless later). Your level one or beginning spells will still prove useful later on.
As for a storyline, you would have to play the map for yourself to avoid any spoilage =P, but of of course I will try to make a unique storyline into this. Updating the experience and leveling system will make it a bit easier.
The map pretty much contains all the stuff you just said, but it depends on your perspective when you play it, you can try it out along with a few people to see what you think.

I can't tell if you are serious or trying to degrade his map. Nonetheless, it is a good RPG for these reasons.

1) It isn't the normal, get strong kill tons of people dumb RPG
2) It involves a VERY unique storyline(which if i might say totally owns)
3) The spells are great for two reasons: nice triggering done by Shadow, and they just rock
4) It is a very great "map" because the terrain is awesome, the music friggin' owns like crazy, the storyline is good, and the triggers he made are insane

I think I can go on a bit more...but I think I made my point. It is very newly fashioned and the best RPG out there. I look forward to its completion and also to testing iot with Shadow.

I'll consider it good if it isn't just another hack-and-slash "RPG" (I meant it to be in quotes)...

99/100 of "RPG" maps in Starcraft are action adventure like Zelda instead of RPGs

There is a demo on the first page. Why don't you go download it and try it out before saying stuff like that.
