@all Just want to let everyone know that this map still lives I would say that the first 90% was relatively quickly made and done (the concept, file structure, graphics, sounds, tooltips etc.). But right now I am fighting my way through the last 10%. But it is kind of like Windows loading minutes and percentages. The last 10% obviously takes much longer than the first.
Right now, I am doing a lot of play-testing and constantly running into issues that force me to re-think and rewrite the rules/xml code. I am also trying to balance the units, prices, heroes to a degree that makes the map playable.
I plan to release BETA versions of the map as soon as the first two races are playable. So the first BETA will feature and be called "Humans and Orcs". The next release will feature two additional races, Dwarves and Tauren, and so on, until all 8 races are developed. So stay tuned!
(Perhaps there will be a little ALPHA stage exclusively for @redrum so he might take a look at the slow map start-up / AI issue and perhaps some of the not-gamebreaking errors that are occurring.)
