Well this was fast. I told X-Soldier about it this morning after catching Hug-a-Hydralisk's post at the PR forums. lol

I am interested in how he got around all the bugs...

Probably because the Firebats look awesome. (and the Zerglings are correct)



But seriously, it is kinda cool to see the original StarCraft sprites as 3D Graphics, and I think it's pretty rad that Hug-A-Hydralisk built out the Terran Campaign. Plus - anything to kill time until SC2 Beta.

X I totally forgot you were involved with this.

/respect

I've been following it since the beginning and was totally shocked when you canceled it. You guys have so much talent; doing my own mod work with oblivion and making maps for WC3 at a simplistic level taught me how difficult and time consuming this is. I can't imagine how much work was put into this.

What were the bugs or limitations of the WC3 engine?

[XSOLDIER]

I'm probably not the best person to ask, as I mostly did contribution work. ^^; Edfishy could probably get you better answers on that if you're interested in specifics. There's the Roundtable Interview that's got some information on it.

Basically, there was so much custom coding, when there was a decent amount of units in the game at one time the units would become unresponsive for 5-6 seconds at a time. There were also things that just couldn't be done in the WC3 engine without using a massive amount of code that would make the game unplayable. A good example would be carriers, they worked at one time but if you had more then a few of them on the screen at once it was way too laggy.

So it had to do with the way the game infrastructure processed code?
