My words:

The map is unique and all, with the blinking crap and etc. However I find some little probs:
- TOO FRIGGIN EASY! Well, not really. I completed it with just 10 lives left, but lvl 100 was easier than lvl 95, really. And that was my 2nd try, using dragons. I got raped while using Sea Minions :oops: .
- Too little towers. 10 PER BUILDER? :shock:
- How the hell do you unlock the Forgotten Merchant? You need 4 builders (I think), and there are only 3 in the game.. Unless you play more than 1 player....
- You can still convert gold into lumber after you get all the workers, but not lumber into gold back.
- I spotted a hero with an 'Ancient Tower' with a weird description: 'xxx'. It didn't drop the tower after it died.
- It lagged like crap during the ending cinematic.
- All towers with spells, with the exception of the Red Tower and the Undead Tower (dunno watever its callled), are spammable (0 sec COOLDOWN :shock:) ! Which can save asses quite easily in a difficult wave, but the tower itself will not take advantage of the lack of cooldown. :cry:

Other than the probs, a good map overall. I just don't like how easy it is. TDs are usually supposed to be next to incompleteable. Try making a survival round (Eg. Like Element TD) in which people have to hold off lots of enemies which come indefinitely. This map is easier than Day of the Cow TD (Which I completed) and WAY easier than Element TD. (Which I never completed)

U can dl it there.
Broken Link.
i cant download it :?:
I finally found to dl it.thx dudeofwar.
it really promises a lot.but i think it hasn't got enough towers for such a big game.(100lvls of creeps)
but it's sure 5/5.Well done...
Download from Dradegast's Link :D
you sure have to do something about the download section of this map because the map seems to promise a lot...
I cant exactly get to download the map.. can you resubmit it?
just finished this, its gt some pretty original ideas, but ive noticed that the "sell to player" thing glitches online, and the nerubian advanced towers are free. :?
it wont let me load it in wolrd edit or in game
here is some link

http://ftp.blizzard.com/pub/war3/maps/spotlight/NCCD1.1c.zip
pls

somebody

load it up somewhere or make this link working
Would a kind soul please re-upload this

why are all the best things broken -_-
can someone please re upload this it cant dl since of the failure with the wc3c site
WHY CANT I DOWNLOAD IT :cry:
:shock: dang....all you people who worked on this map.... good job! IT ROCKS! but i only made it to level 29 :? ... what i only played it once.... still great map
Where is the forgotten merchant? Was he removed? Or is that the point of the FORGOTTEN merchant.
there is an bug of teleport between 2 spots and it wont stop :'(
that not very funny wenn you yust begain and mosters stampeding trought your base :/
A very nice and ORIGINAL map for TD, i specially like the option to move your towers (make items)i like also the idea of a moving merchant :)

But it's true it's too easy to win, indeed beta testing it's the harder part for a map creation.

best regards
Fun but just two things, too long and too easy.
:shock: Best tower defense there is i love it
That last post was from me, I somehow got logged off. I did download it a third time and it still didnt work, oh well as long as I got RotD I'll be fine - and if you want to get past level 3 load the campaign on the editor, and disable the load triggers and place the units youre supposed to start off with and then you can play it without creating to many bugs, it will just disable some abilities and cinimatics will work a little strange(er).
erm after i extract this file to my c://programfile/warcraftIII/maps/frozenthrone folder
i got this map in my game
but when i click it and join
(im playing single player mode)
and it couldnt start
jump back to the map selection part after i click START GAME...
wonder why?
I must say this map is awsome! Its by far the best defense map I have ever seen. I like this map even better then RotD! :D :D :D :D :D I never liked defense maps at all, but ever since I played this I changed my mind. I can't belive no one plays this on B.Net. :evil: Guess its cuz of long load time. :( This map truly looks like it was made by a professional map-maker. Good job Darky and all who helped! :D :D :D
Darky i think its time for a little update, last patch add alot of little bug : web work on ground now, tauren command aura ward now we can use many, the effect stack now, that make the game to easy(lol you can have +3000 on every tower and more)and sometime creep stop moving in the teleport circle.
Not bad... :wink:
Wish more people would host this, and yes. I'm aware of its age...
very good map the best i ever played......the bad thing is secret merchant cant reach it without cheating :? very good map indeed in the next version try to choose difficulty and remove bugs. more imported models to then its rated 10000000/5 i promise :lol: :lol:
"i like this but the waves get boring after a while. other than that it's really cool!"Quote by iliveforwc3

Yeah your not up on your feet you sit there because you dont get a lot of gold for the towers (i was the dragons ppl) [size=24]/size]more action
A good TD and is unprotected in this way some people can take ideas and learn various things.
This map is very good!!!
good job but i want to know how long have you been workinng on this TD??? :?:
Good td
I met one problem though: the strongest tower of the dragons casts rain of fire on magic immune units. It's very annoying to turn off autocasting each magic immune wave. On the other hand, it does add some more tactic :wink:
MOO!!! :D
Damn i like this towerdefense..... but i think it's to few towers... more towers! but anything else is just GREAT! 5/5... if there comes a new version with new towers i'll gladly give it a 6/5 :D
I am stunned. One of the best maps I've played. I wish u could rate it 6/5! |CFFFF0000B|CFFFFFF00R|CFF80FF00A|CFF00FF00V|CFF0000FFO|CFF7F40FF!
speechless. :arrow: 5/5
i am twisted
very twisted indeed
Good idea with that towers, but try to play with nerubian 1 level eggs. Spawned spiders by that eggs have perment web.
@Matt, Darkly did that so that you wont take his map, but you can still look at triggers to learn. MAPSTEALER!

Web was a bad spell to base your autocast abilities off of, on magic immune and such they would get webbed permanently.
this is a VERY KEWL MAP i play since..... erm... long time ;)

LOVE IT, but's 2 easy...
Are you sure?
Anyway, it's hopeless too easy. There should be more difficult grades, too.
The chaos damage IS affected by armor number, just not armor type. So it will do the same damage to a hero armor with 11 armor as a light armor with 11, but more to a light armor with 6 (because less armor)
"ALL YOUR MAPS ARE BELONG TO COMMUNITY! YOU HAVE NO CHANCE TO PROTECT MAKE YOUR TIME! YOU ARE ON WAY TO OPEN SOURCE! FOR GREAT COMMUNITY! "

Hmmm i wonder where this is from... maybe
ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US! yOU HAVE NO CHANCE TO SURVIVE MAKE YOUR TIME! YOU ARE ON THE WAY TO DESTRUCTION! :D
Great map, but there are some weaknesses:
-When I try to play it in LAN, only the hosting player can play, the other ist kicked out
-Sometimes, only the Upgrades have to be payed; the towers don't cost anthing
-It's a little easy. What's the big armor of the later creeps for, if nearly all towers do Chaos-Damage?!

But the features and the map design are super, good job!
Difficulty: 0/5. TOO EASY! any decent TD'er can beat it on his FIRST TRY! I've seen it. Took me 2 trys to beat it. Havent lost since. (havent played since actually)

Creeps: 5/5. Cool descriptions, spawns scorps/+armor/+heros is cool, the free towers are a plus too.

Tower Specialization: 5/5. Awesome! all autocast plus stuff like summon skink and such. Itemify = Kickass.

Playability: 1/5. too easy so you probably won't play much, but doesnt lag (much, awesome models, etc.

Sadly, thats 11/20, 55%, F. The problem is, you most likely wont play it more than 5 times. its just too boring when its so easy. The hardest level is probably 77 (i think thats it) with the scorpions who split into 4, then into 4 more. And that even can be pretty easily countered. I'm not sure why no one else has commented on how easy it is... but its too easy.
This TD is so cool..
Okay i have only played as spiders but the eggs there makes new spiders is very cool...
Cant make things like that...
But i soon upload a Aos map on this side called
The Great War..
I have yoused a lot of models and magic from this side
But give this TD 4/5
Hehehe, best Tower Defence ever! 8)
Like ALL other defense games, this map is very boring. I'd give it a 0/5 but it won't let me, so I rate it a 1/5.

Darky28 is a HYPOCRITE!!! He is supposedly 100% AGAINST map protection, yet he USES it in his map, Nature's Call Circle Defense. He CLAIMS it is unprotected, but just open it up, change one MINOR thing, save it, then try to play it. It screws up the game!

ALL YOUR MAPS ARE BELONG TO COMMUNITY! YOU HAVE NO CHANCE TO PROTECT MAKE YOUR TIME! YOU ARE ON WAY TO OPEN SOURCE! FOR GREAT COMMUNITY!

FOR EVERY MAP YOU PROTECT, I'M GOING TO UNPROTECT TWO!
NOW THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT! :wink: :twisted:
well lubbe your the noob becouse noobs may learn of the triggers and yes as he sayed under \V/ they will share models... anyways i think its pretty neat
This looks like it would lag alot on B.net, customs, and junk, ouch.
Lubbe...Dont you know why it is unprotected?! It is so that it will be popular and so that other people can share the models too...But I haven't seen this at battle.net...Only 1 time and then it lagged so much that we all got kicked.... :?
Amazing map!! The only little problem is that it takes years to play. But other then that its amazing!!
Awesome map but too peaceful i like more war i played a little but the thing of freeze don't happen to me ( i have 1.17 GH and 512MB) 8)
-Good Challenge
-Great Models
-Great Icons
-Unique Tower System
-Variety
That's 5 points in my system. 5/5! :D
Is there anyway to access the secret merchant, if your soloing?
8)
Why!!! i want it protected so no noobs can change it :P
DARKY YOU OWN ALL!!

nenei, si esch eigentli no kuhl, aber im BNet lagged si mengisch!
i like this but the waves get boring after a while. other than that it's really cool!
If you're having trouble playing the file because the file type is "w3", simply change the game name to "NCCD.w3x" or "NCCD.w3*".
ok there is a bug concerning the water minions at lv 2 and 3 builders, the advanced tower for both comes free when you build it. is is ment to cost somethign like 300 gold for the first, and 450 for the second but instead, it does not drain resources.

if it freezes on the loading screen then just wait a while longer and it should load. if the download doesnt work then download it again
This is good. Well, what else can you expect from Darky!
TFT is version 1.14 ...
update and everything runs fine
I have the same problem as augzodia. I have the german version of Frozen Throne ver 1.07. When I want to create a game by doubleclicking the program does not take me to the configuration screen where other players can log in but gets back to the first screen where you can connect to games an see them. That's kind of odd. It loads but it doesn't proceed. I downloaded the file twice and both times it did not work.
Thanks for your help
This fun
@augzodia

i dont understand you :?:
When i choose the map to play in frozen throne, it doesn't show the race/color/team thing most maps show
Quick question, how can i extract just one individual model from this map, or any map in general? Is it OK if i use the goblin modelin one of mine?
THIS MAP KICKS ASS!!!
*****This map got a huge server split problem
it ****** cool but wan i play wit my ffirend s they get DISS :evil:
umm i cannot seem to download it, and i dont know why. I had a few other people try, and they get it as a .w3 file instead of a scenario or map, i download the file, unzip it, and can't do anything with it, im simply stuck with a file that is NCCD, can't do anything with it, cannot host it, can anyone help?
It lags a lil bit on my "§$% PC. But great map!!
THIS MAP KICKS ROCKS!!!!! :P :D :) :P
i got no loading problems, it loads within about 5-15 seconds. ok, i got 3 GHz and 512MB ... :P
@ darigazz, the problem with loading screen is not actually i problem, you just have to wait a bit longer than most maps. I thought it froze too, but actually just takes longer :lol:
I've loved it :P :P :P :P :P :P :P

im sorry, but i cant make sense of that, do you mean that the towers will become ultimates when u save/load?

no, im saying that when you save the game and load again the advance buidings of all the races dont need money to built.

and i find another little problem: the hotkey of the root tower and the mini tower of the lvl 3 :arrow: :arrow: :arrow: goblin worker, are the same

when you save the game and load it again the ultimates tower of all the races, dont spent money.

Ich geh gleich mal die neue Version testen
I haven't played it yet, but the facts are very impressing, I have yust one question: "Why don't you work for Blizzard???" ;)
i hate defense-maps! :oops:
1 of the netsplits is fixed.
The second one where some people drop at first wave i'm currently tracking.
Will be an updated version soon.
Nemesis das haltet sicher nicht ab
Ich hab ISDN und hoste und es geht relativ schnell
Aber es gibt nen Bug bei den Spieler gekickt werden :
Das 1.mal ist da wenn alle die tower ausgewählt haben.
Das 2.mal ist genau wenn das 1.Level startet

Ich hoff das das bald behoben ist aber sonst ist es genial
Juhu!
Endlich ist sie da :)
super!
aber leider so lange lade-zeiten.......
.....aber ich glaube das hält die meisten nicht davon ab diese Map zu spielen 8)
it doesn't really freeze up, it just takes a long time to load (on low end comps like mine I imagine). Just read a book while you're waiting.

I agree with lllLSDlll, for a map that is this detailed, 12 players is too many for bnet play, 8 is much better. Reducing to 8 will also help a bit with the long waiting times on bnet due to the large map size.

my only other comment is that the flow of the game seems a bit sluggish during the relatively easy early rounds. nice TD overall.
not bad, but sometimes boring :?

This is an incredible TD.
Hi Darky your map is awesome, but i find 2 little bug -whit the dragon race, the advance tower of the builder lv 2 (dragon pilar? im not sure for the name) this tower got 200 damage and when you upgrade it, it got reduced damage 130 and 170 for upgrade lv 3, i think you put the third tower first. and second bug is -whit the goblin, when you got the third builder you cant upgrade root to lv 5 becuse it say, you need third builder to upgrade lv 5. but you can build root lv 5 whit the third builder. just a little trouble whit the requirement.
I adree whit tonicstyles lock the team.
I think 12 player is not good for the map design, 8 is perfect,remove player 9 10 11 12

lllLSDlll
Try download again
frezes on the loading screen for me too. Please fix this darky.
I got no problems with the map.
Maybe its your game.
Try to re-install it and try the map again. :roll:
There are a few problems with it.
In the pre-game screen, each player can choose their race/color/team, etc. I don't know if this is intentional or not.
It also freezes when it's loading, and forces me to restart my computer.
