BattleForums RPG

Be sure to check in here for updates on my current StarCraft project. I'll be posting screenshots and information about this RPG as it progresses. Just don't expect anything overnight. I don't rush maps I want to have good gameplay, and look smooth.

If you're interested in helping, let me know. While I'm expert at triggering, I sometimes get too concerned with little stuff I can't figure out right away, which distracts me from actually working on a project. Let me know and I'll see what work I can dig up.

Right now I'm looking for someone that is good at designing RPG cities using any mapping software.

I am currently using StarForge 2.0 to edit my map, so anything compatible with that is preferred unless you know of something better, that doesn't require me uninstalling StarCraft to patch to v1.07

I do have other odd-jobs for help with this map, some just being there and giving your advice on something I want to do. PM me and I'll get back to you.

If I receive too many replies, I'll let you know that I'm all set for the time being, but I'll get back to you if I can't find someone when I need a second or third opinion.

Lastly, DO NOT post here requesting to be a unit. There's over 60 units, and over 50,000 members. Not everyone is going to make the cut. I apologize in advance if you are forgotten or left out, there's simply been too many active members to get everyone in that deserves to be.

If you're really that desperate to get your name somewhere in here, I'll be having Beta testing signups when it reaches the 70-80% complete mark.

(Members included as units within the game will not be asked to do beta tests for this game, and are automatically disqualified from signing up. A list of who is in the game will be posted prior to Beta signups.)

1 word for you:

Android destiny
Thats was the first battlefourms rpg, then it crashed and burned... make sure you keep working on it.

If I put my mind to it (and not get distracted, lol) I can build pretty good cities. All depends on if you need ALOT of stuff in a town or a little. It could be an outpost or a full-blown city.

I don't know if this helps, but when I play an RP Map, I usually go for the small islands or big areas to build huge cities in, with "living" conditions (people moving from place to place, etc)....

 

[Hydralisk591]

I can build balanced units with kickass names. If you play my RPGs that I'm making, you'll see what I mean. I can also come up with some awesome ideas.

Right now the general terrain of the map is almost done, I just have one last corner I have to think of for what I want. After that, I'll need someone that can handle making bustling cities with people moving around, etc. But not to the point that would make it difficult to walk around.

The area of the town is about 3072 pixels wide by about 2304 pixels high.

I'm using a 1024x768 resolution, and you need to scroll approximately 3 screens over in either direction to go from one corner to another.

Sakuhta offered to do it for me, however he didn't guarantee he'd be able to do it in the near future, so if anyone's good with making busy cities, lemme know.

Thanks for your offers in the meantime, and hope you're all still around when this thing's completed.

I can try. But I need to know what buildings you want me to make. Like, do I use Terran/Protoss/Zerg/all?

That is a bloody huge town. Well... Makes sense...

Hey Tronga, where did you make your Signature thing, it looks awesome. Can you make me one with a picture of a Hydralisk?

--Edit--

Please do not post this kind of posts in this forum, getting off topic, and all. Do send a PM next time you want to ask a personal question.

I'd say I am able to make "busy" cities, and the like. Maybe you could have some sort of a "contest" for whoever makes the cooler city!

Also, can we expect the list of people who are in the game anytime soon? (within a week?)

 

[FakeNameHere]

Like every map created through the forums, l expect it to turn out badly, such as BlizzSCUMS.

 

[Kao]

I hope it turns out well. I'd actually like to see something that can get these forums out there.

 

[Hydralisk591]

Well, Tomorrow Morning I'll make you a Bustling City and you tell me how you like it Cort. Its gonna be small because I'm just gonna show you. Its going to be 64x64, smallest. But I can make it bigger. Alright, I'm gonna hit the hay..peace out!

 

[x42bn6]

How far did the other one get?

 

[Kao]

By what I hear, it must've never made it past the first save.

 

[coRtALoS]

From what Tronga told me, if you open up the map editor, you've done more than the first map makers did.

Please post your finished product of your busy city here when you're done Hydra and I'll check it out, or if you'd rather not publicly post it, PM me a link to download it somewhere else please.

Thanks for your help thusfar everyone.

 

[Renzokuken]

Just copy the city from Galia Cruiser ^_^

-EDIT--> I can't attach it, the filesize is too big and WinZip is being a jerk and is making the filesize bigger rather than smaller. =/

 

[Kao]

Attachment please?

 

[Hydralisk591]

Hehe my city got delayed. I've got tons of work to do on maps, UMS, all that good stuff. Right now I've got to build a campaign for another forum site. See, I build maps for them to and I get payed for it. Such a good job. Anyways, I'll make you a city as soon as possible and PM you CoRt.

 

[Arkillo]

Hydra, I highly doubt you get paid to make SC maps...expecially maps that have a ... quality... of yours

On a side note, what the hell are you gonna make the storyline of the RPG?
