T.S.O.F -Terran Special Operation Force

[Ghost-]

@Tomura: What about a beta I would LOVE to play this, the terrain, models and systems are just cool!! Its just cool !!! Its ownage

 

[Tomura]

There are too much things to do till I can call it beta.
Espacially Squad AI has to be completed, because your squad will be quite important on every Mission and they currently are behaving pretty stupid. And there are enough textures I need to finish for the interface.

But we are making good progress this month compared to December and November.

 

[Ghost-]

Sounds great, why dont you get it hosted ( hosted project ) Because I think it's good enough to get that and theres really getting some work done here!!

 

[matyko]

Zomg!

You

Are

Awesome!

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

I wanna play that game I can't wait.

 

[Freakydemon]

This must be the most revolutionary project of Wc3 yet. I love your work, no doubt that every1 loves it? ^^
But i was just wondering how much of your project is finished yet? Terrain,models triggers,... ? And i agree with ghost- you should get this hosted man ! I think they'll agree from the moment they see your teaser

 

[Tomura]

Well here I am, again
First, I had Problems with my PC and after I fixed the Problem many of my Teammembers left, so I'm currently gathering some new guys.
Coldgamer, DarkEvilArthas and Totti left. The last two without doing anything ...
And I'm still waiting for Coldgamer to give me the Terrain he made....

However ... Barade, another.win and Michkus from inwarcraft joined the team, but I think I still need another landscaper. And a modeler would be good too.
I'm currently looking for people who are able speak German (because everything in our Forum is in Geman), but if I can't find anyone, it's even okay for english-speaking people to join in. But I have to Translate everything written in our Forum into English first (at least the important things).


I've been trying to make some sort of AI for the Enemies, but it's not exactly working the way I want.

And I nearly forgot:
I made a new Screenshot

[Duke]

So what about progress?

 

[Tomura]

pre alpha

I think it's kinda like this

Story/Concept 100%
Systems/Spells/Items 80% (Just AI and secondary firemodes, maybe one spell and there are some little bugs)
Terrain 10%
Skins/Models 40%

I want to finish this Campaign so I think 'll need some more people to help me.
I'll officially seach here, if I am able to find some people at inwarcraft.
Especially terrainers are needed

I visited your project's website (English) and noticed a lot of spelling and grammar errors. Some of it didn't make much sense the way you put words together. I'd like to help you by correcting it! I don't mind working on the English version of your site to correct spelling and grammar. Perhaps I can also help polish the storyline as well.

So what do you think?

[Edit]:
I helped Tomura with his website's English on almost all pages and have also been recruited as a terrainer on his development team for TSOF. I look forward to working on the project!

[Tomura]

We are still looking for a modeller, who is able to animate.
If you are a modeller then, please look here:

if you know a modeller who might be interested in working on this project, please tell him that we need someone.
thank you

 

[carbonex]

i love your map.........it looks fun esp...the trailer or teaser.....
i can help with website

 

[lolreported]

I got no words over your project, it is so NICE! I have also created a FPS system, by myself, with aiming and arrowmovement. But your system is killing mine I used regions for collisioncheck and immolation for killing units But some peoples may find it useful. Well I can't wait until you will show us more pictures and maybe even a BETA version. Maybe you have a spot free for Beta testing? Or maybe you need help with something, I are pretty skilled in GUI

 

[DoOs_101]

Bringing up an issue I encountered with when making an FPS map, it always lag when played multilayer but since this is a campaign, it will be fine I guess.

 

[Craka_J]

Running over elevated terrain such as hills, cliffs, and ramps is a major glitch in WC3 you'll need to look out for.

[Tomura]

Bringing up an issue I encountered with when making an FPS map, it always lag when played multilayer but since this is a campaign, it will be fine I guess.

In multiplayer everyone exept the host has a time delay with the Keyboard event.
So you can only play Maps with keyboard-controll via LAN (Local Area Network), because the delay would be minimal due to the very fast connection.

Thats why TSOF is Singleplayer.

@Flood: Thank you for your offer, but I think we have enough triggerers at the moment. We still need a 3d-modeler, because I cannot animate with gmax, because the dexport script seems not to be able to handle that, and I don't have the time to do everything.

~Craka_J

Griffen is currently working on this issue that I've pointed out ages ago He seems pretty sucesfull, and we are currently making an example map. Also, any lag you encounter will be the same one as in CS. The point is, you wont lag to yourself, but vision of your unit may lag on other computers.

 

[NinjaDino]

Maybe perhaps we can work together some day on another FPS mod? Maybe a remake of another FPS game such as Serious Sam or Team Fortress 2

Also, I am taking a German language class, and know English perfectly (Since my primary language is English ) so maybe I can help translate what ever I can.
~Craka_J

wow serious sam is croatian game, and im croatian
this campaing is awesome, and videos and models,
video 2 is great, i think thats some another game not great mod
its great how squad members have difrent faces, and key movement is smooth and great, better than my( i made something some time ago, but it slows game too much and its little weird)
ill subscrite to this thread cause i think this project is great

 

[Tomura]

thank you for your comments

real. joined our team as a terrainer.
We still need 3d Modellers!

I'm currently working on a detailed terran battlecruiser model to relax from scripting.

And there are some screens made by Koho and real.

[NinjaDino]

terrans are great, will those objects be destroyable with shooting, glass and all
really nice, good models and lot of objects, but aint this more horror and logic, and what kind of logic will be used( like find a key or something more complicated)

 

[carbonex]

i agree with ninja..they should break and stuff keep it up..i thou it was dead

 

[Tomura]

@ninja:
I hope this screenshot answers your question
http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=14378&d=1191780980

glass and some explosive barrels are destroyable. Sadly the rest isn't.


I want to make some complicated logic tasks. There is still a lot of room for those things.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

The map is in German????

 

[Tomura]

no my warcraft is a German version. So some interface texts are German. But it should be English when you have a English version of warcraft.

Some debug messages and placeholder are german, but they won't be in the final release

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Oh,it's ok then.I hate this language.

 

[Tomura]

haha. Well I don't like German either. It doesn't sound very good.

The most funny thing is that the Worldeditor is half German and half English. It was really confusing to understand everything when I began with mapping

 

[real.]

Well, now I'm registered, too. You've seen already some of my screens, here's another one.

 

[carbonex]

hey real.
so since ur on the team (i think) do u have a estimate time of completion?/

 

[NinjaDino]

yes i know for that pic. Its few pages back, but what all objects will be breakable, only some big glass or smaller windows and all, this is very interesting project so i wonder what will it have

 

[Craka_J]

No one does at the moment. To be honest, I think no currently in development mods have a release date set.

~Craka_J

 

[TheDivineBoss]

Looks like a old FPS game from 1999 or something like Doom. Your's win xD

 

[carbonex]

yea it quite does...
well it warcraft..what do u expect

 

[Tomura]

BTW I haven't show a picture of the Terran Battlecruiser model I'm currntly working on for TSOF
I need to create a texture, umwrap it and add some particles and Billboards.

 

[NinjaDino]

hmmmmm.. model looks good, will it like some transport or what??
ad it would be cool to make it to fly above you like in war games(COD4)
do you know how to make fire on models(like thrusters)
or mabie to crash in front of you(and lot of effects)

It's the Terran Battlecruiser. I will use it in some Cinematics.
And like said before, it will have fire and some lights and maybe even a Yamato-Cannon effect.

I've written a new Newsscript for our homepage, which kinda connects the newspage with our forum. It's now easier for us to write news and (i hope) there will be more news from now , because the main reason why I didn't so many news was because the old system was kinda complicated (because I was to lazy to make something good).
You are now able to write comments.
There is also a public forum on the page and I plan some future benefits for those who are active on that forum there (links to videos, WIP screenshots, maybe even spoilers, I don't know).
Of course that'll only happen if there are enough active users in that forum.

 

[Craka_J]

Ah, I see. It's more like a Blog in a way now, just like Wc3:WoW's website has its news set up. Good idea.

 

[Tomura]

A new Gameplay video is now available at youtube and our Website
please watch and give me some Feedback

TSOF is now using Reinventing the Craft so there is better FPS Control. But it made the pace in the Combats faster, so I need to slow it down a bit

 

[carbonex]

Yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[DuckWTF]

Looks realy cool reminds me of unreal tournament cause of how fast it was but to me it's not fast enough

 

[HeretoDLstuff]

Never checked this out before, but it looks really cool! Is it downloadable yet? EDIT: AH, Only a demo so far.

 

[Hawkwing]

Best Wc3 Modification I have seen since HoS, which might not even be as good as this.

 

[gohan43]

this game looks really really good and will mark the future of warcraft

offtopic: What's HoS?

 

[Hawkwing]

HoS is one of the top mods under construction right now. It has been under development since 2002. Here is a link to their site: http://hos.samods.org/

HoS, which is short for Heart of Storms, is hosted at Star Alliance Mods if you are wondering.

Anyways, yes this is indeed a great project and it would be wonderful to see some updates daily, though the chances of that are slim.

 

[gohan43]

thanks and aww i cant get the trailer

this game looks really good but im just not liking wc3's marine model

 

[Darkenneko_003]

This project has made it a long way from where it began,
I can't wait for it to be completed so the public can play it. But keep working on, don't rush nothing.

I got bored, so In my attachments I made myself a Little wallpaper. xD
Great Job.
-Calvin

 

[Grievous1]

Good idea, looks great Darkenneko good job ^^

 

[gohan43]

it looks beautiful good work

 

[Tomura]

I'm making new Tilesets for TSOF to relax a bit from Triggering (and I have to think of a good way to enable dropping non weapon items)

I made a quick test terrain for one texture.
I also reskinned the Konstrukt Doodads a bit.

I think there will be some improvements on the texture

 

[TheDivineBoss]

Question: Are there any light effects too? If you wonder what I mean, check the Zero Hour map.

 

[Grievous1]

looks intresting and in addtion good 10/10 i hope you makes the ground better
