Go to epicwar, they should have them all.

I do a scan for elementalish maps on epicwar from time to time and report fakes.

I prefer the sun/.. and hexing/jinxing suggestions of mrchak. But I agree with Karawasa about the golden statue, I don't like it either. But mrchaks voodoo needs a rework imo. Actually this is one of the few towers that I could imagine as a unit model. Other than that I'm fine with what has been posted. (I guess, I'm tired. )

Not yet, but you can start one.

Autocast would be triggered everytime the tower starts to fire, has the spell ready and is not allready under the effect, right? Most of the time that sounds like about the perfect time to do so, so I the tower has autocast for the spell, most micro could be substituted by proper placement. Hm.

Yes, thats Sn4k3.TD's bot. Besides, did you notice the clan grew bigger recently?

I hit that film too on google, but the name is elephant. The (tv) indicates only that it is a tv film.

Sounds like one more hour waiting time for all other players.. We should either have that mode for all games (which might be the case at the third tournament) or not.

Ah - I didn't notice you took one of those for hxing/jinxing. They are better there. I agree about that firepit, looks good. I'm off to the editor to find some nice voodoo stuff.

I'd say: Drop the waterfall model and use the one you took for solar instead. That solar model has clearly some water in it. Geyser, Gusher - looking great. Reminds me of the dark starcraft look I lke so much. And I like your Mortar/Vulcan suggestions. As for voodoo/witchcraft, how about some of these: That's four towers, the red flare is a model too. The two non-runic ones would make a good sun/solar/nuclear model maybe?

Hm - Elephant TV. Baywatch - trunks and ears and waterski.

Ladder is not meant to show the best player, it's meant to reward activity, and to help build a comunity.

How about playing normal rnd on 3 in a public game with mixed diff. No interest farming, just sitting there, letting the waves roll by..

Cheating - we will need some sort of anti greedisgood check. And we will need a working definition of stalling too.

What you took for solar would make a great waterfall replacement, but that's just my personal dislike with the old waterfall model.

(Claps) Great work. I like that. The windstorm could be wind or whirlwind maybe?

Ah, ok. (And ofc all times/dmg types/dmg values etc. can and will be changed too.)

Oh - he does? How does he?

I've been having a look at the models suggested by Karawasa for 4.0, and in many cases I disagree with him. To tell the truth, I didn't see a single model yet that stuck me as an improvement, but I havn't done the full scan, all levels and all. So, as Karawasa puts it, "There is still hope." My two mayor concerns are: Why change the models of unchanged or very similiar towers? And I don't like unit models as towers in a td. There will have to be a bit of them, if only to make the build waggle and wave a bit, but I don't like them. Coming to think of it, the small number of unit models for towers might have been one of the reasons why I liked 3.0 in the first place. Anydangway, I've done a scan of ingame non-unit models availabe and compiled what I believe to be good design or nice. So - what do you say? Agree? Disagree?

Something just came into my mind: Is it possible that many if not most public players still don't know the meaning of "beta" or "rc"? So simply mentioning "beta" in the title gfx wont successfully prevent fakes or outdated versions? I'm opting for some very clear message, like "This is an unfinished test version that is known to have bugs and balance issues!". Maybe "Unfinished" or "Test version"?

Many players are adept on both maps, so we should even consider giving a direct credit. I'mean, we are like not exactly similiar to dota, so we are more like two different partners, not rivals.

Tested it once, seems to work fine, and I like it. A very usefull single target slow/disable, causes a bit of clumping/blocking and will be considered a strong tower in need of a nerf after the first beta. Autocast is missing though, right?

vh sr for me too. If I end up with a hero (I vote "don't care" on that), I park it at the top right corner, where he never get's anything into range. I'm still not very used to vhx, but that will come. Took me ages to get into random..

I'm playing on 4 mainly, but I can do a 7 for you too, if the racemode calls for it. And in case of a fun game or team challenge, I'm ofc on 3 or slower. I tried to race a certain cyberseer and he taught me not to rely on racing in non racemode games. So I'm very relaxed about playing at 4 and out-networthing any spammers right now. My relocation skills are still lacking, and my micro is about mediocre at best, as I'm slow with the fingers. But I do know what has to be done and do as much as I can.

For what Karawasa told me in the irc, you are a very valuable coding force. For many projects, making the damn thing happen is the hardest part. Great to have you in the team.
