Re: StarCraft: Vile Egression [Completed]
Yeah I changed the hotkey to "I" for Immortal in TBL Pad, but it didn't actually change the hotkey itself. (It still remains "D"). However, I don't believe it's a serious detriment to the gameplay factor, seeing as how most people are accustomed to using "D" anyway.Symmetry wrote: Haven't had a chance to finish this yet - so I'll be a little while on a review - but one thing I noticed is that at least one of the hotkeys doesn't work (the build Immortal). I don't remember if the other changed ones work or not.

Re: StarCraft: Vile Egression [Completed]
Well, IMO you should indicate the hotkey in the string rather than having the 'I' highlighted but not actually work.

Hmm I guess I could go for "Train 'D' Immortal" but that'd look pretty silly overall.
Also, aside from my original entry, I have uploaded yet another version of map 2 in which I corrected a single typo found in the previous version. (Yes, I am that anal about typos.) Additionally, Warblades' shields are now set to 100 to coincide with their map 3 counterparts.

(For anyone (other than the judges) seeking to play the latest update, please use this link for map 2 instead of the one found in the original post. Once the contest entries have been judged, I will replace the link to map 2 (located in the original post) with this one.)

The d in the string(circled in red) is the actual hotkey for the string. In order to make it work correctly, it should look like this:

That aside, excellent campaign.

Re: StarCraft: Vile Egression [Completed]
Oh bollocks, I was using StarDraft's TBL editor; that's probably why I didn't see those initial hotkey letters. Anyhow, I'll fix that right away. Thanks for your input!

Re: StarCraft: Vile Egression [Completed]
Dude, I told you how to fix that on more than one occasion.
Why the hell were you using the stardraft tbl editor? I told you to use shadowflare's tblpad.

For some reason, TBL Pad doesn't display tbl files properly for me; they just show up as a blank file.IskatuMesk wrote: Dude, I told you how to fix that on more than one occasion.

If TBLPad refuses to work for you, try PyTBL. It is availible here:

This may or may not have already been asked, but is the song you use in ur mod for the main menu from Killer Instinct for the SNES?

Weak...... I had 5 seconds left on the defense portion of the first map and then died...... And the worst part is that I hadn't been saving like the map told me

Heheheh, in my case I tend to oversave. Probably out of fear of losing ANY progress. On more difficult situations or cases, I can easily save on every single corner.thebrowncloud wrote: Weak......

Just for the campaigns of this contest, my average is like 100 saves per campaign tested.
