These are the leaderboards for Gem TD+. If you have a great game, make sure to share it with others! Encourage players you encounter to do the same. And, yes, you can play offline; just provide the needed information.
Do realize that this is not an exhaustive list of all the best games. Only those reported can be included, and as the competition grows steeper many do not make the cut. However, this repository does accurately reflect the state of the leaderboards at a given moment in time.
- Ensure you are playing on the latest Warcraft III patch. Games played on older patches are not accepted.
- Ensure you are playing the latest version of the map. Games played on older versions, testing versions, or unofficial versions are not accepted.
- Do not rename the map. And ensure that the map is placed within the
default directory for downloaded maps (i.e.
Maps/Download/Gem TD Plus X.Y.Z.w3x). The map location is recorded into the replay, and non-default locations make it difficult for other users to view replays. Hence, they may not be accepted. - Ensure that you are following any leaderboard category specific rules. These can change gameplay in ways that cannot be replicated exactly otherwise.
- Be a good sport. Do not undertake any behavior that might undermine the competitive spirit of the leaderboards. If in doubt, ask.
- Join the official Gem TD+ Discord. Your Discord account is used to identify your submitted games. Games cannot be submitted on someone else's behalf.
- Provide a screenshot and replay in the
Leaderboards
#submitchannel. A game will not be verified without a replay. Tip: Just drag them into the channel! - See if further information is needed for verification.
- Join the leaderboards, then try to make sure your name stays there!
Before leaving the game take a screenshot. If you forget, you can take one
from within the replay. You can use whatever method you prefer, but using
the Print Screen key to have Warcraft III create the screenshot is the
most common.
Include the game's entire window in the screenshot, and ensure that your maze, the expanded game board, and the map version are all visible.
Upon leaving a game the option to save a replay should be available. If it
is not, or you forget, check for LastReplay.w3g. Do note that this will be
overwritten upon playing your next game. Also, consider the game option to
automatically save replays for every game you play.
A replay is tied to a specific version or versions of Warcraft III. This can either be a single patch or a range of patches. In order to view that replay, one must have access to an installation of Warcraft III that is patched accordingly.
Starting in Gem TD+ 1.5.3, the camera zoom used when viewing a replay
defaults to 2500. In older versions, this was not the case, and the camera
would change due to the use of the -zoom command. If the camera in one of
these older versions seems to be stuck, or you would prefer to return the
camera to the default Warcraft III zoom of 1650, press Insert or
Delete briefly.
The location of the map used when playing the game is recorded into the
replay. For most players, this will be a file in the following folder:
Maps/Download. However, it could differ. In such situations, it may be
necessary to place a copy of the map into another location to view a replay.
The leaderboard system did not begin until the release of Gem TD+ 1.5. As such, there are many games without screenshots and replays. These are the best known Damage Test kills that have been verified.
Pre 1.4: 39:52 - Buskmurvel herr_beppo
- Patch: Unknown. Most likely 1.26.
- Version: Bryvx's Gem TD 3.1
- Notes: The video says Gem TD 4.0. However, there is no actual gameplay difference between that unofficial version and the last official version by Bryvx. Until Gem TD+ 1.4.0, the gameplay and balance between the original Gem TD and that of Gem TD Plus were essentially the same.
