Ok, i think the present is right time to inform the new what's going on in Three

kingdoms mod
As many of you know, it stated project a great while ago and there were many ups and

downs during working for this mod
but the present my number one goal is to get back full time to release this as soon

as possible and i concentrate on this TK project
and it could needs to join modder of team to give your hand

Currently, the resources of the Graphcs and animations those are progressed as looking take shape up
that seems kinda the World of Chinese Three kimdoms
[undtold story]
Acutally, most sprites of the unit/building and animations were done Since i took a

respite from Tk mod work before i've been around of playing other games and modding other games ,
i tired of working TK mod and i needed to look after my energy

StarCraft Total Conversion - The Three Kingdoms ]: Legendary Heroes
What is the TK-MOD ?
Three kindom mod based on Romance Chinese Three kingdoms
this mod will drive yours into fantasy world that StarCraft replaced to Chinese of an ancient age
[ graphic resources]

Some graphic contents are maded by using other games resources
Basicly many of models edited from WarCraft3 models to Chinese unit models which

units of an ancient age and many of paint and illustration used from Game title which called koei's Romance of Three kingdoms
i contented with current of graphic quality nearly However those would be recreated by my hand from scratch
Current Progressed possesion is Graphics - 90% / Game Data ( dat file and table of text ) - 20% / Animation Script - 40 %
Memory patch (Buttons and tech tree) - 10 % / Sound - anything not yet / Etc - not yet

Alright, its TK's show time ~! Screenshots and image bombing begin
Title ( undefined current )


Screenshot of startup version ,it's kinda test version


[untold story]

to be one of interesting mod

I love to see you working on this again!

If you already have images and such I suppose I could help with the UI a bit.

And so the epicness begins again...
If only the protoss had a chance of becoming people.

i just didnt update medias , All races becames as Human civilization already
it just needs compiling / scripting and balancing
therefore, it needs teammates to you see Three kingdoms world as soon as you want

ok, i already got graphic materials for looking UI as Chinese Style
i'd touch you when i fininsh concept and resources as PCX files and Acutal material files

Untold news :
i already got two korean teammates for Campaign, Melee game ( they r awesome mappers )

I honestly don't know how you can live with those units over green background, it's so annoying

Anyway, in the previous thread years ago, wasn't I in for memory patcher?
I'm still in, I also could help you with some UIs.
That tigger unit pwns.

This mod looks like alot of fun ^_^, Cant wait for release!

green[0.255.0] color is one of best colour to make a clear discriminate between object and transparent background colour
if background has black, it could has dirty dots around of the object when convert pixels in photoshop and other 2d editors
that way is the custom to do in the Game industry

hehe..... i fogot you sent that the will to me at that times i just realized you was .....
as i said above, i really was withdrew from TK modding to other interest which other playing games and modding
yes, you're still in
that's really a good bonus

That's a ballista, not a catapult.

Mod does look like good stuff, though (even if you stole a couple buildings from Age of Empires 2 ), and I'll definitely try it out once you finish with it.

ballista can changes mode as catapult you just couldn't see Since i just didn't update that
yes it was, so i mentioned that story i would recreat buildings and thats what i'm doing now
as you seen above

Additional :
--------------------
i haven't told for tileset editor,
i'm looking forward someone takes SC tileset as chinese style
if you want the chinese terrain and town images sources as fit as like game tileset
i can give you bunch of sources i alreday got good resources as much to work simply

The feature of construction system

i got a plan that construction system as unique
first of all, my the aim of game is gamepaying looks more flash and unique by different system than existing system of SC
many of koreans who is fan of TK mod, they asked the walls
for such reason, what i planning the constructing sytem is Building wall
but i think it should be applies for balance as well as possible in game playing

Many of SC players are uses terran's buildings as guard building i got inspiration from there
and build systems of Age of Empires and Medival-Total war games

so players can build the walls to protect the town make endurance as strong
Acutlay it's spends a great times to break the wall

but if your tech has delveoped to high and as time goes on then it could break the wall without difficulty
by use advanced units



so that mean, when game has begins you could build walls to protect your hometown
but if map just like existing SC maps it so easy deffence

for this reason, TK map should be full-opened or kinda opened gate from around instead of this advantage

It puts another complexion on the incident in the opening part of game
but it needs to balanced without borring in the begining part, then you can have a chances to try a multiplicity of strategy much more than SC

and here is one more unique system with above its kinda complete of randomical starting point
Acutaly its similar as Age of Empires

Basicly, SC and many other mods dirves you start with Command building ( such as CC, hatchery, Nexus )
but this is different a bit ,
first of all, when you start a game you will take a starting point but there is no Command buildings , such other buildings too
just start without buildings ( as many of moder know, it's possible with used sort of trick in the FG )
you will get just a few peons and one hero or just peons ( its would be chages From time to time as the need )
anyway you have to find out a good locaton your self and drive your stakes to settle your root down



then you Actualy the current of existing starting locations that ppl searching the opponent's location becomes diversify
so it gives you chances playing much more strategically than before and its puts much complexion on the incident in a game

Offcause, These systems needs test for the balance through Alpha and Beta test and if needs cover up defects should it change or keep systems

I thought about a system for this. I'll tell you later.
I have a few ideas on how to do gates and such.

Hey NirvanaJung! Haven't seen you since v4.Keep doing stuff, I can't wait the mod to be released! I remember when I was looking on all the stuff you had on the v4 topic.I didn't check any other posts, only the ones with stuff for the mod!

I'm surprised this hasn't gotten this much attention. Ermac's Last Stand and your Three Kingdoms Mod are what lead me to begin modding in the first place. Great to see you working on this nirvanajung, good luck.

i have a News about TK team
Raising TK members of Team, meanwhile, we've organized Staffs to some extent for project TK
i think this project could progressing nicely. Everything could going like clockwork after so long a time

3. memory patcher : Corbo[MM]
4. Scenario Director / Campagn designer : Hwaso bekdo ( TK korea commnity member )
5. Melee Mapper : Deevea ( TK korea commnity member )
6. and me ( Director, graphics, animations, many other stuffs )

these guys are TK Staffs, so if some one have quesions something you could asking to them
and they will be answer to here when they can tell about your asking isn't it ?

and i built a TK offical forum site called Three kingdoms Forge
http://tkmod.zoa.to/

but its used for TK staffs mainly so far, however you guys can go there
to see news and contents of TK ( but Currently, there is no Contents for public )

Anyways anyones can join in our Team even though there are a member for each part of modding
Always there is no restrictions on each fields of modding

you can get a credit and can be staff of The Three kingdoms
