I joined way back when and mostly just read and didn't post. Was a good forum. Moving on and thanks for putting in the effort.

Can you make a Loki - FAF version please? The current version of Loki in use has 2x reclaim in trees on all areas of the map for the bottom left player. I tried to do it myself but the map editor is too triggering.

Hey, the issue is already documented. I'm currently pretty busy with non FAF projects, but I will try to fix it next month.

Very active with multiple uploads a week. Good mix of casts with focus leaning towards entertainment rather than deep strategic analysis. Runs a popular 'Insanity of Saturday' with a cast of a map followed by a live playthrough with input from the FAF community. Other uploads not FAF but often enjoyable to SC players with regular RTS reviews in the never ending quest to find a 'better Supreme Commander'. (Also well labelled, I'm serious having a clear naming convention for your casts doubles your view count).

We played it again last week without any AI and with 1,5x resource bonus. After realizing how to play it correctly we could beat it and it was great fun. Well made map.

After we realized how we can win it the 1,5 resource bonus might not have been required any longer. During the early eco phase we wasted mass as the income increased much faster then we could spent it. That bonus is a great help but not required. We are both 1100 (global) players and played the map on that level as well.

Thx for the map .

Hi, in last case I think that the WAYBACK MACHINE is an idea.
I already put the main page as reference.

Mapping • Goodbye phpBB

2020-08-11T23:27:06+02:00

In August 2011 this phpBB forum was launched (oldest post here). Back then phpBB was one of the best bulletin boards you could get for free. Now, 9 years later, the world is a different one, but somehow our forum is still frozen in time. After a lot of issues with spam, security vulnerabilities and most recently severe outages for no ovious reason, the time has come to let go of it.

A few generation of bulletin boards has passed already and we move to NodeBB now (link here).

Goodbye grandfather of FAF. We'll miss you.
And as the administrator I'd like to add: Please burn in hell, where you came from, you shitty piece of software.

We will probably archive this forum, but we don't know how yet. If you have any ideas and also skills and time to help on that please contact me.

If you guys really want to debate this have at it: i am done dealing with mirddes.

I am willing to bet my position as councilor it's not worth a second of my time to talk about this further.

Have a good day in hell to anyone supporting this.

Seems weird that some people are allowed to remake maps and other people are not?

People are allowed to take a basic concept and recreate a map with their own methods and styles.

People are NOT allowed to jack an existing map and add markers onto it without changing something, which is what mirddes has done here:

And now, as stated. The drama over the content removal will be so arduious that I would (and did) recommend that you should have just made something new with the same general layout anyway. Too late for that now.

Would it be interesting if there were some defenses on an empty player spot?

That sounds like a good idea. We will retry tomorrow without AIs.
