It'll be on AcidCave, on this page. It's 50% Polish 50% English, which can be a little bit of a problem, but maybe we'll sort that out somehow.

Hi there.

Spent many hours/days/weeks on the completion of my HotA map, but finally I'm able to release it online.

The only issue is... Where can I upload them? No site I know seems to 'sell' Hota maps yet.

---
Title : Nation Wars

Story :
Good, Evil and Neutral are roaring to seize the others.

Good wants to restore World Peace, Evil wants to Destroy everything and the Neutrals want to expand their territory.

War is uppon everyone. There is no time to waste, this is Nation War.

Specifications:

* Map: Huge
* 8 Players
* 3 Teams
* Conquest Mode
* 2 levels



You can also send any HotA map to me hellburn@heroes.net.pl. Behemoth's Lair will add it to upcoming update of Map Vault.


I will. I'm just adapting some details thanks to hobbit.

I'll send it to you today, when I'm finished.

Did he try to update several times? Some files could remain unupdated if the game or editor stayed opened during the update.

He says he did and it's still the same.

Thanks. I'm adapting some stuff on the map already, so I'll send you the "less empty" version.

Hey, google translation does a good job haha.

lol, hobbit, i was. that's why i said "to the HotA crew".

Oops, sorry! I thought it was Forge thread. And yes, we're from VCMI team, although I'd rather call us Heavenly Forge Group.


no problem.

so, to clarify, there are 3(main) Forge teams:

1. Heavenly Forge/VCMI team (how many members, and who is the leader?)

2. HotA Forge (how many members, led by don-komandorr?)

3. Polish Forge (how many members, and who is the leader?)

do i have that right?

HotA Forge is made by HotA Crew, not sure if entirely or not.

Heavenly Forge Group's leader is Witchking, and there are, if I'm correct, 5 members (6 if counting our tester) in our group. But many AC users are helping us in some ways.

Polish Forge is dead.

You have the same problem I have (and others too). It's the HotA launcher when trying to verify if there is a new patch to download.

Go to the folder where you've installed, run HotA_launcher, uncheck 'update when the game is launched' and then run h3hota.exe and that message should never come again.

BUG

Not only the Medusa's (the Medusa Queen is fine) shadow flickers. Also the shadow of the Pit Fiend moves in some strange way.

MAP editor crash, http://pastebin.ca/2554853

As there seems to be a lack of even one real giant map I decided to make one (very slow progress...). Barely started, some few landscape objects placed, some with brush, then customized manually. Then I wanted to use brush again, in underground level (no problem top-side), I painted some area blue, clicked the button and it threw an error at me, and closed the editor, several times over. And a few days earlier I could use brush in underground without issues.
I as well tried the same on a completely new and empty map, no such problem there. Then back to my barely started map and still the same problem.

A really, really weird bug... So I thought I'd try an unlikely thing, turned out to bypass the issue at first try.
Loaded the map, went underground, emptied the whole level of everything and put some land there and used brush... without problems, then pressed ctrl+z till all the original stuff were back, painted some land blue with brush and it worked, didn't crash the editor. Then tried it again, this time I saved the map before using brush and it crashed again.

Anyway, can continue building my map, that's nice.

Or not...

There's a some small pixel glitches with the Water Element's tail. You cannot really it see in this picture, but some pixels are 'blinking' in and out on the tail edge during the tail animation. The Ice elemental doesn't share this pixel issue.

@heroes_fanboy

I can confirm this. Anyhow, notice how the Pit Fiend/lord's hand looks really deformed and how he scratches himself in the ass with it? lol.

An English version of HotA pops out, suddenly millions of people keep noticing one pixel imperfections in any place imaginable. It doesn't really take much to extract the bitmaps from a .def file, change up a pixel or two, and re-pack the def. Choose an upload site and voilą, everyone's happy. Saves up a damn lot of time from the HotA developers, I think.

I do find this kinda annoying. these are just trivial. Point out some real bugs and glitches, not this crap. I personally barely notice this crap. it doesn't affect the game in any way.

If by millions you mean mainly hippox89 and me, we should be flattered.

Troglodytes in this small picture (on the left) look a bit too brown in comparison with other images (look at the one on the right).



And one more thing. We are trying to IMPROVE THE ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF HOTA in this thread. I encourage you, especially native speakers of English, to help us.
