Build A World Map Making Contest!

Opened them both up quick just to look at them. I gotta say, the terrain is impressive on Normandy! Really great job on that. Wish that Fjord was given the same attention as that map as the layout seems great, especially for a 12 player map.

Were these on the FFA bot previously?

No. These maps has never been on FFA-bot. I just played and tasted it(Normandy) one time with Happy and (Fjord) with Airenikus 3-4 days ago.

Awesome, thanks!!! Normandy looks like a really great map. I haven't done any testing of it but it looks like a lot of fun.

Hello,

 Is there anyone, who would be so kind and tested my map w/ some friends?
I have tested it many times, but me and my friend aren't that great melee players and since this community is on semi-pro level (at least I believe in it) it would be very helpful, if I could get some more professional feedback. 

 If you would be so kind, just write me, I can send you unprotected version of my map. Thank you in advance.

Sure! Just write the times you're available to play so we can be there to test it. Same goes to Mr.Light if you want some additional testing on Normandy. Still plenty of time before the deadline!

@Mr.LighT Normandy looks cool as shit, it almost looks like it was made by blizzard itself xD, also, nice racoon poker player picture.

So, regarding the creep camps in dark blue and their natural color. Why is it that every starting position and all of the goldmines (not just starting spawns) have creeps in their natural color (not as creep camps set to 200), but the market place, fountain, other orange and green camps are set to 200 range as dark blue camp?

Will there be a problem if I make a creep camp dark blue for a starting position in a 8 way map?

The vision range on the "natural color" camps is much larger compared to the ones in dark blue. The reason you want the range larger for gold mines is so that players can't build at or next to the camp without it being crept first. You want dark blue for non-gold mine camps so that when you walk passed it without creeping intentions, they don't get aggro'd.

So yes, it would be a problem if you have gold mine camps set to dark blue. Its very abusable.

wow, makes much more sense now. In that case my map is almost done :D. I'll move on to the 6 way map now.

Hey guys I have a question regarding the items dropped on death.

I have chosen item table from the map and then selected the items according to what I think is balanced, I have also chosen it to be random, for instance:

Murgul Murauder --> Item table --> Item set 1 --> New item --> Random --> Level 2 --> Power up.

This should give me a tome of xp or any of the +2. But When I play my map, it gives me ring of protection +2 and other items.

Also, for other creeps I selected a different item, let's say a level 4 item, but when I kill it I get a level 6 item.

What am I doing wrong here?
Do I have to use Custom item table rather than table from map?

I did short picture tutorial, step by step (my WC3 is in czech, but buttom location should be same  ) If you won't get it, I will try to explain it to you.

(8)Retvisan Island.

Wow, thats the best one i've seen so far from you!!!! Really great terrain. I can't wait to play it.

Only thing is we need it to be a Melee map. Can't have custom items or anything like that. If you could just fix that up that would be perfect!

wow that map looks very neat!, reminds me of The Crucible, but it looks great, GJ!
