NEW TANKS !!

[ChatEnChaleur]

heyy, here i post a suggestion.
Maybe some1 already posted this request, if so, im sry :S


there are too many light tanks, heavy or infernal. it would be great to add more tanks for more skills and more strats ???

if its possible to start with at least 10 tanks, it would make really great games ! bah its my opinion

[Batto]

Yes, this is posted already multiple times. Everyone wants new tanks ofcourse, but the biggest problem with that is that there arent enough models that are good enough for this map. For model requirements, you should take a look at THIS topic.

If you find a nice fitting model, i think you have a good chance of getting new tank in the game, but untill then it will only be a dream far far away

[ChatEnChaleur]

Btw, Tank's spells are too much the same. IT would be good to see new skills. I thik there are too many bombards/rockets/fan of knives which deal 300-1000 dmg to units around.

I dont have idea right now, but it would be funny to see funky spell

[TKF]

I'm happy enough with the current abilities in btanks. If it's to much effects, people get bored of it quite fast actually. The effects has to be on a realistic level.

I've done that mistake already...

________________

I'm not against a ability change, but I don't expect that either.

All reasonable ingame mechanical models is used to maximum extent. However there still might be a role for the alchemist, he is a goblin after all. But I doubt he will be added, he is not a tank.

Tinker is a goblin
What about, a dwarf? (mountain king lol!)....

________________

Anyway, if you find a promising tank model which has VERY LOW filesize and it's looking good, has working animations, maybe that tank might be added into btanks as a new tank.

These models are already found:http://forum.btanks.net/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=341

The model takes 56,692 bytes (in the map the model is squished).

Name: Dark Lord
Cost: Between Infernal and Titan

Skills:

Claw Attack (Not in Preview)
Attacks a unit with a Claw with great force, causing traget to knocked back. Stuns... deals... If the enemy is smashed into a wall, it will suffer additional damage...

Technogenic Smoke
Creates a smoke arround the Robot.
In AOE XXXX enemy tanks speed will be reduced + lose abbility to cast and weapons
During 1s + Level * 0.5

Shadow Clone
Creates an illution of the Robot and the Robot becomes Hidden (not invisiable). Illution uses Weapons(Deals Damage).
If illution Dies the Robot loses 50% of his current HP.
The Illution last 10s + Level * 5;
The Robot HP must not restore while he is Hidden.

Unknown Name (Ulty)
Chardes the ... and fires in the aimed direction for massive damage. Aiming: units, Ground.

Cooldown dont ask me (short as possiable).

The Spells are a less cloned.

Similar:
Claw Attack - Chrono Axe (TKF mod)
Unnow Name - Core Laser (TKF mod)

To Mappers:
Doest in has any chances to get to the next next version (i did not double typed)???


Btw I hope that the Inf cost a bit more, but decrease the delay of Teleporter.

[TKF]

The model looks awful similar to infernal in animations. But I don't know. This is a walker.

Did you compress the model with any kind of tools before putting into the map?

I tried to compress the map, it was only compressed 18 % instead of 40%!

[LuckyD0g]

The model had got totaly the same animations as Infernal. I got a lot of copies of this model (was testing MDX Squisher), maybe I used MDX Squisher. The map I did not compressed.

[TKF]

Optimizer and squisher does seem to stack and reduce the total mapsize together.

I tested this to check if this was effective on a larger map with several models, and together they made the map smaller.



I squished 5 models which is about 600kb

Normal map
1266kb - Untouched
1156kb - Squished Models - 110 kb save

Optimized map
708kb - optimized map
602kb - optimized map and squished models

This was better result than I expected. Models is different. I don't know why I got low compression with your model. Maybe using only 1 squished model doesn't make such a big difference as 5 squished models.

But I haven't checked if both compression ruin the models yet... But using both does make the map even smaller actually.

i think it should look like the normal tank that sells for 800g but remove the wheels and make it look like its hovering somehow mabie a small aura under it and the big main gun replaced with smaller guns in all directions instead of forward. or another idea is make it look like the goblin boat that has the black ring arround it "from battle ships" because it looks like a hover craft but make it smaller and remove the sails and add the small guns in all directions. also you guys are trying to make it immune to death and in reality it should be weak vs other tanks and i dont belive in invisibilaty at all. here are the skills i think it should have

skills

evasion

make the built in basic gun shoot AOE/muti-targets "the reason i said make it have smaller guns all the way arround the top of it

extra bounty or a chance to get a % of the creeps value per hit " like the skill form the TERMINUS ARENA map"

terminus give it a chance to instant kill/one shot creeps "also in teminus arena"

emolation or a DOT aura

make it hover "passive" so it isnt blocked by creeps but it cant go over trees or cliffs/mountains "dont forget being ontop of their creeps will make their guns hit you while yours are hitting creeps

a skill that donates $ to your team but you choose the amount or a set %

also the names boring it needs a better name mabie "The Plow or creep-o-nator 2000

cost 3000 "with AOE basic gun bult in" or 1900 without so you can afford creep gun
speed 320
armor 1
hp 2000

those are a few ideas but like i said it should be weak vs other tanks so mabie make it so you can only buy creeps guns or make the tank able to buy any guns but they will only attack creeps for this tank.

you said the basic cannon cant be set to attack multi targets? well how about giving it the 800g tanks lvl 10 ability to shoot aoe rockets but make them weaker and have it auto cast every few sec and only target creeps.

[horselance]

What you say is Lightning Tanks lightning aura. Hits all targets in range per second aka "immolation".
Seems like my Hovercraft in BT-reflection.

[LuckyD0g]

I used MDLvis
It can delete geo points, animations...

It reducud quite a lot
Before use file size: 168 KB

After usage file size: 84.6 KB
map size with model: 46.1 KB
empty map: 16.0 KB

It means that the model is 38.5kb


Can some one rate Dark Lord model?

Edited:
I separated the part of the model.
Now the totat of files is 40.7KB

i think in the origioanl wc3 game the tinker's ult is the goblin tanks model. so why not make mr tinker a bit more expensive keep him exactly as he is but change his ult to a morph into a slightly nerfed goblin tank with the same exact abilities as the current goblin tank? you can double check this but if i'm right i think i remember the animation for it was really cool looking. it looks like a transformer. you might want to make the tink model a bit bigger though...

i think i'm going to put him in as the character, "Autobot" in my map eventually just cause the animation looks so cool. i'm still trying to find custom skins for the incredible hulk and bruce lee though first.

the stupid pocket factory sux anyway if u ask me. no offense but i hate it myself. no creeps even come out of it.

if u did this i think it'd be cool cause if u piked tinker you'd actually be able to have your towers and still play as a regular tank once you get to level 10. but then to work on your towers again you'd have to morph back into tinker.

what do u think of this idea? stupid? brilliant? insane?
