It's time.

We're finishing Anime Fight. We are now making the Final Version.
This will be a combined effort wherein I take very little part.

So First thing is First, We need a team.

Four people will 'work' on this map.

-Person A will be Programmer A.
-Person B will be Programmer B.
The two above are interchangeable and will constantly be sending data back and forth between each other, keeping an up-to-date list on what changes they've made to the map so Programmer B can do the same to his version.
-Person C will be Forum investigator. Going through the forum and checking a checklist for Persons A&B to do to the map. This person, due to expendable nature, but me exceptional at relaying what the original post is saying as quickly and effeciently is possible. Turning things such as;
Quote:
 
Okay then, we've all agreed SUPAFIYABALL is imba. It's like the damage should just come down. Like 80 at lv1, 400at lv5, and 800at lv10. And the mana cost? Man wtf were they thinking with 10 at lv1, 50 at lv5, and 100 at lv10? Just wtf. It should be like 100+20 for each level. Like 120 at lv1, 200 at lv5, and 300 at lv10. And the range should be at like 900 not fuckin 1300. And how come the hotkey isn't what it says it is? It says [L], but the hotkey is NOT [L]. just fix it already!"

into single lines of
Quote:
 
Rebalance SUPAFIYABALL, change the following: Damage=80*Level. Mana Cost=100+(20*Level). Cast range to 900. Hotkey is currently stated to be L, but is not.
.
-Person D will be 'The Net'. Person D will be the go-to if Person A or B do not know how to do something. Person D will also unprotect the map.


Obviously I'll be Person D. Person C can be mostly filled by the entire forum itself, and Persons A and B COULD do it too.
Person C is basically like the "Short Version"s of my posts back in the day. Straight-2-da-point.


I am not going be Person A or B. I really don't want to.


However, there are FOUR conditions in which I do this. THREE conditions in which I unprotect this map and keep us moving for the Final Version.

1. Some people still think Beta 1.500 is a real/latest version. So the map name should be something CLEARLY "Final". I don't care what it is. If there is no(I mean ZERO) problem with my suggestion, let's call it "Anime Fight VerFinale"?
2. The Hotkeys. They WILL be changed. ZXCVDF or QWERDF, I don't care which. But EVERY SKILL in the game must have the same Hotkey pattern. Slot 1 skill is Q, slot 4 is R. You've seen this setup in plenty of games by now.
3. A new "Quest" in the Quest Log. Zach Fargus. Just something to note him. Thank him for keeping the forums together whenever he did.
4. A Credits Scene that plays during the Winning Sequence.
A list of Credits appears on the screen during the Winning Sequence, thanking everyone involved with Anime Fight VerFinale.
Example:
Quote:
 
Spathis - Creator of Anime Fight from Version Alpha to 1.400
Jimgb - Creator of Rena Ryuuga Model. Helpful Forum leader.
HeartCard - Unprotected Anime Fight 1.400 for Final Release.
New Map Editor(s) - Edited 1.400 into VerFinale
s14.zetaboards.com/animefight - The official forum of Anime Fight.

Zach Fargus - Previous Forum Leader. Rest in Peace, Bastard.


So sign up. Who wants to do what? If someone else signs up whom the forum agrees is more qualified than you, your position may be given to that person.
This is and WILL BE a Forum Effort.
This is not a Reboot. This is a Finale.

I'll be Person D. Which means will still have atleast Two Critical and One Minor positions to fill.

Anyone is allowed. But I'm only giving the unprotected map to TWO people. And whoever gets it is up to the Forum.
Everyone who wants to be a mapmaker on this map will say so, we'll then hold a poll.
Whichever two gets the most votes will be Persons A and B.

Any questions? Comments?

Before you ask, No I will NOT be one of the persons A or B.

I have other things to do, even warcraft related. Warrior Souls for example.
More importantly, I don't feel fully right being the one to do it.

The only reason I was calling it Fritos mode was because I had no idea what to call it that would be shorter than 8-12 letters... So wait, are you saying we ended up causing a 30 post long flame war because of some misunderstanding?

...HARROOOO

Does no one get this?
It doesn't matter how horrible you are, as long as you can do ANYTHING.

We're not making new heroes or anything, we're not adding epic new stuff, we're rebalancing some of the numbers, editing in a few lines of TEXT(Not formulas or such), and maybe a weee tiny tad more.

Frankly, even if we can account Tatsuma as Person A, we still need a Person B and it's not going to be Me.

This is how bad my programming skills are: I'm first year university programming.

I might be able to edit 1 or 2 heroes, but that's it probably.

ugh. At worst you fix an animation glitch or change a skill. But most of it just seems to be damage calculations. I don't want to do it because,

I tend to mess up everything i touch, so i only do things that i have experience with. The last time i opened the editor, it was 8 months ago to rip the BGM off of a map.....well i did edit the texts on RLfM. But thats the extent of my experience with the editor.

What kind of fucking prodigy am I then?

I figured how enough of WC3 editor to create Warrior Souls 1.01 through 1.05 in less than a week.
With no previous experience.


And yet all these people keep going back and forth around me screaming how little they can do.


Bullshit. Utter Bullshit. You're giving up on yourselves too damn soon.

It's fine. I still get my way. Like I said, even with Tatsuma, we're short one Person. Which puts us at a lovely little stalemate.

Guess what. Worse case scenario, you screw up the map so bad it cannot be recovered. What happens?
Either Person A sends you their current unprotected copy of the map, or I send you another copy of the deprotect 1.400

If you screw up, big deal. But if you don't try, what was it all worth for the success?

I can be a balance/ideas person if we're really doing this. And even if I don't know any programming I know enough about the basic mechanics that I might be able to help. o-o

Well then...
Until Tatsuma says so, we're still short atleast one person.

In the mean time, there's a topic missing.


To-Do-List. A new one. One to clarify what should be applied to this next and(or so I thought) final version.
Someone else make it, it's your project anyways.

If the map requires JASS then count me out, since I have very little knowledge in how to write it.

You're...you're...serious?

Umm...
Well...

In my head I'm laughing up a storm, but...

Well. Game. Over.

The shock of Tatsuma not knowing jass has official put this map back in the grave.

The map's trigger were 'recovered', they're all in one big jass script.

Editing small bits is easy. You just need to CTRL+F for the skill in question(EX: A06E is "Super Rape Buttlock", so you look for any trigger dealing with A06E and edit the somewhat clear data there to your liking).

There's still an extent of GUI involved, it's not that epicly heavy or anything...


So unless someone BESIDES me figures out JASS, or atleast CAN from maps alone such as I did, this map is half-dead again.
