Map for 3 players

Post by DylanDog »

Anyone has maps planned for 3 players only?

Now that a player can be completely turned off by moving the sliders to zero would be interesting if someone would develop a map for 3 players only. The map could be useful for challenges in 1(Human) vs 2 AIs (Dydo).

I have no time and skills to make one on my own...therefore I am kindly asking if someone could provide a map for 3 players having following features:

- At least 140 tiles width/height
- Human base (position 0) with 5 oilRes in the base and 3 around the base
- AI bases (positions 1-2) with 4 oilRes in the base and 2 around the base each

I think the game would be well balanced with DyDo having a total of 12 derricks and the Human player 8

I may give it a try...
What type of bases do you want?
How many water? If you want some at all...
What layout of map?
What tileset?

Great! thanks!

Concerning you questions I`ll leave them all open to your fantasy, the only thing...do not use too much water and do not put oilRes and bases on an island.

Almost done...
Just tell me: what structures do you want in bases?

And do you want scavs? If yes, how strong...

1 HQ, 1 power generator, 1 research lab, 1 factory. Yes with scavengers, medium strength.

Here you go:
dydo.lnd
4c-dydo.wz
Someone should enable "fme" extension...

If you want to play this map in skirmish, don't use this version, but one in addons page(called "Three"). Unfortunately, you'll have to wait for Zarel to approve it -.-

As I understood, you will be using this map for a challenge. If that is true, there is no need to wait for that map to be approved, that is same map modified for skirmish games, and it is much more diffrent then your requests by oil and water. Those versions uploaded here are only for you, and version on addons page is for people who want to play skirmish.

I have a flat three-player map that is kind of like NTW but with three directions instead of two. There is a player 4 base (because there has to be), but it is up out of the way and that player gets no trucks.

The map was part of a map pack someone posted on the forums, so I do not know the author or license. The devs and moderators also took down all links to the map pack, since map packs break Warzone. However, I have pulled the map out of the map pack and repackaged it as a standalone map.

I think the only legal way for me to get you the map, is for you to play a game with me, then you will receive the map through the Multiplayer map download. I usually play MP games Sunday afternoon and evening (my game handle is Cosmic Raven).
My game handle is Cosmic Raven or Cosmic Raven 68

Well, it would need some rework anyway...

Recommendation: Get illegal.

If you pull a map out of the map pack and repackage it, you can feel free to upload it.

You cannot upload it to addons.wz2100.net unless its license is compatible with the license options there, but you can upload the map to the forums.

Would it be possible for you to amend the Three map to get the following as I do not like maps with too much oils:

- Player 3 should have no derricks
- Human base (position 0) with 5 oilRes in the base and 4 around the base (tot 9 oilRes at disposal for human player)
- AI bases (positions 1-2) with 4 oilRes in the base and 2 around the base each (tot 12 oilRes at disposal for AI)
- No other oilRes around the map
"around the base" means they should be about 30-20 tiles away from the base

I think on this way the game could be well balanced as the AI can count on higher research speed (combined research + more oilResources)

Well, that is basicaly the "4c-dydo.wz" map in upper post. Ok, I'll make those oil resources further away from bases and remove oil from scavs.
