  1. Happy Birthday :D, i hope that you will have a great day ^^

  2. Hello! I'm OraCLesofFire, also known as Baby Altaria. I've had a place in my heart for this game since I first played it on my fathers computer as a child. I had no clue what I was doing then, but I knew that I loved it. Now that I'm older, I've decided to try my hand at developing a campaign for the game! If you have also enjoyed this game, feel free to speak up and discuss it below with others! I'd love to discuss and bounce ideas off of you! for the uninitiated: https://www.wesnoth.org/ Now about my campaign: Orcish Civil War The Concept: Follow the exploits of a goblin known as Gneelb, and his condescending Orc brother Dulfish as they march through the Northlands, uniting the Orcish clans under one banner, and ending the 100 year civil war in which their nation had been embroiled. Fight against Elves, hidden enclaves of Dwarves, Terrifying Monsters, secret bands of human theives, and of course, plenty of Orcs, all while protecting your arrogant brother from the consequences of his foolhardy actions, and reunite the four clans. Prologue: "20 years after the founding of Wesnoth, a great Orcish Host descended from the north on the human city of Tath. Vastly outnumbered, the men of this post had no hope of survival. Seeing this, a young elf by the name of Kalenz mutinied against his people, choosing to fight with the humans side by side. Even with help from the few elvish forces, the humans could do little more than hold their position. But all they needed was an opening, an once the advance was stopped, Kalenz and his friend Landar journeyed deep within the Orcish territories, and assassinated the Great Chief Brurbar. The anarchy within the orcish ranks that followed was unprecedented. Orc fought against orc, lusting for the power of the combined Orcish horde. Out of the chaos, 4 major clans ascended to power. Led by the 4 generals of Brubar himself, Ozul, Gvur, Tamitahan, and Khrubar, the fighting became more organized, and the 4 clans sent out raiding parties to claim minor clans, their soldiers, and their gold for themselves." The campaign is being developed on Wesnoth Version 1.13.10 which unfortunately does not have backwards compatibility. -- I expect the campaign to have anywhere from 15-20 scenarios (o.O) and be set in 4 chapters (1 for each clan). Development could last anywhere from 2 to 5 months depending on how busy I will be with school. To accommodate the role the main character will play in the scenario, I will unfortunately have to create a few (5-8) new units which fall under the Goblin faction, hopefully they won't be too burdensome to learn for older players, and will add a bit of spice to the otherwise single-dynamic playstyle the orcs tend to fall in. (brute strength) the goblin faction needs more diversity anyways I am developing nearly the entire campaign myself, but once it is applicable, will start looking around for artists to make some splash art, portrait art, and do spriting for the new units. I want to make sure that this campaign looks and feels smooth and top-notch before releasing it and adding it to the add-on server. -- That's all! Hope you have a wonderful day! If this post gains enough attention, I may begin posting updates. If you want Spoiler-ish materials I will post updates and screenshots of development on my Twitter. Below is the current design of the first scenario map
  3. I do not know why, but I find myself compulsively drawn to asking, "What is the most ___ thing you've ever done/experienced?" when I'm having conversations in my head. The most common word to fill in the blank is "painful"... I have no clue what this means, and the fact that I constantly find myself repeating it over and over in a loop in my head is super annoying...
  4. My dog has discovered that if I'm typing on my computer, he can tuck his head under my hand, and I'll be forced to pet him.

     

  5. My car had the "low fuel" light, the "check oil" light, the "check engine" light, and the "check battery" light on all at the same time as I was driving today.

     

    If I randomly disappear from reborn, just assume my car spontaneously combusted while I was driving it.

  6. Today was the first day I've ever had to deal with a patron so disrespectful that the cops had to be called.

     

    Follow the rules people... is it really that hard?

      I kinda wanna know what happened, but another part of me says don't ask...

       

      Following the rues is hard for some people

  7. Random thought:

    Girl in pig-latin is IrlGay

    I don't know what this means

     

  8. A very powerful song about hypocrisy, is very applicable even today.

     

     

  9. The girl I worked with yesterday got asked out at least 4 times while on duty, and had one guy come up after he had changed and ask for her number.....

     

    Not sure whether I should feel sorry for her, or envy her.

     

    Most of the guys how asked her out were like 16 years old, lol.

      Feel sorry for her? No need, being asked out too much is the kind of 'problem' many people would like to have.

      Envy her? Depends on whether you're into 16y.o boys or not, which is entirely up to you ;)

  10. What's worse:

     

    Finding a used condom in the pool.

     

    or

     

    Finding out an older lady with demetia soiled herself on her way out of the pool, and having to clean up the yellow trail left behind where she walked?

      Lifeguarding. People are really freaking strange, and do some weird crazy shit.

       

      It just so happens that lifeguards are also the pool janitors in an emergency.

      Thought so. Hang on, August is almost over. I wish you courage and good luck on the rest of your job, may it be plagued with the smallest amount of weird crazy shit possible :)

      Well, I don't know if it makes you feel any better but chances are the demented old lady had less control or choice. Especially Alzheimer's affects more than ones memory.

  11. Virtue is to personality as Beauty is to looks.

  12. This will always be my favourite XKCD https://xkcd.com/1576/

  13. "Actions accessible by the bot API, chosen at a frequency comparable to humans" I believe they're saying that they've added in human reaction times with this statement, which is probably the biggest relief out there because it means abilities with an animation won't be completely useless outside of the laning phase. The bots obviously won't make mistakes that humans would make, like accidentally walking into a pudge hook. I think the more interesting thing to look for is how the bot will react to some of the weird and crazy stuff than humans do, and how they'll learn to interact with each other and map movements. The number of ways you can play a full game is immeasurable, so I think that it will be very possible for humans to beat the bots by out-playing them on a teamwork and game plan level, and out drafting them. The best thing humans have against an AI is that we can act irrationally.
  14. So I know a lot of the people here don't play DotA, but I thought this was a very intriguing topic that the entire Moba scene would find interesting. OpenAI https://openai.com/ a non-profit AI research company recently built an intelligence which was capable of consistently beating the best DotA 2 professionals in a 1v1 mid situation. The AI was revealed at The International 7 DotA 2 Championships where it handily beat the best of the best in recent history. The rules of Mobas are extremely fluid, meaning the bot had to adapt to it's opponent's extremely diverse array of moves and possibilities in real time. With the implications of this simple feat. OpenAI has released a blog post showing their intentions for the future of this AI, being able to compete in a full game of DotA (5v5), and how they expect to go about working towards that goal. I thought this was an incredible accomplishment, and figured that people who play other mobas league would find this very interesting. https://blog.openai.com/more-on-dota-2/
  15. It's really crashing down on me right now that once Girl leaves, I'm going to be completely alone again.. I'm scared.

      awww =x

      We don't know each other, but I think you could use a hug, so...
