Daniel "3ICE" Berezvai

I was born in 1990. I am a student in Hungary, Europe. My real name is Daniel Berezvai. My unique nickname is 3ICE, pronounced "Thrice". I prefer to be called "ice" in both written and spoken form.

Areas of my expertise

Warcraft III World Editor is a creative and powerful tool. Users can change every aspect of the game, creating custom content called maps. These are *.w3m or *.w3x files, packed as *.mpq archives. (Like *.zip). It takes a lot of skill to create maps that are fun. The biggest map database on the internet can be found at http://epicwar.com, in case you would like to download some. They are currently hosting over 70 000 downloadable maps.

Just Another Scripting System I am expert at producing quality map code in JASS, which is a scripting language, not to be confused with the music genre, jazz. Examples of my work:

  1. Three dimensional movement system with sliding, flying, walking in the air etc
  2. A function I like to call "LaglessSpawn" for it creates a lot of units without lag
  3. A system that enables users to alter the terrain tiles ingame (Featured in MD)
  4. Sliding System, which is currently the only RoC compatible solution for sliding objects
  5. I ported the unique concept of Click on units to damage them to RoC (Featured in CW)

Graphical User Interface of the Trigger Editor I am also a professional user in GUI, although I prefer JASS, because typing is faster than clicking and JASS offers a lot more features. But in order to reach out to a wider userbase, most of my tutorials will be in GUI and not JASS. In cases where GUI proves unusable (For example when documenting one of the above mentioned JASS systems) I will place a JASS tag on the post in question.

Map making I am the sole author of various custom maps, all of them are prefixed with "3ICE's". Let me list the best ones here, in alphabetical order: 3ICE's Click Wars, 3ICE's Fastest Map Possible, 3ICE's Firelord System, 3ICE's Hell TD, 3ICE's Maze Designer, 3ICE's Music TD, 3ICE's Sliding System for RoC, 3ICE's Spinning System. My maps are widely recognized by the player community and I receive a lot of praise from the fans. All of my maps can be played without owning a copy of the expansion, which makes them very valuable to those without TFT.

General Computing I have successfully passed an ECDL exam in 2008. (ECDL stands for European Computer Driving License, and it is the European equivalent for ICDL) and I obtained a very high score. The License proves that it's owner is able to handle Microsoft Word, Excel, Power Point, Access, Operating Systems, knows how to use the Internet, work with data and also knows the main concepts of IT.

HTML, PHP, SQL, Javascript I am a web developer. I build websites from scratch in any text editor. (Preference: Notepad++) I hate fancy developer tools like Microsoft Frontpage or Adobe Contribute for they generate bloated HTML code.

Programming: I program in: PHP, JASS, C#, Pascal, Autoit, VB, Javascript, SQL and VBScript. HTML, Batch, CSS and XML are not really programming languages, but they fit in this category best. I have also worked with: C, C++, and Turing. So that's a total of 16 programming languages I speak, and I still want to learn two more: Assembly and COM.

The English language I own a State Accredited Language Examination Certificate for English (C1). This license is for the highest possible level of English examination you can take in Hungary, and as you can see from this writing, my English is pretty good. (English is not my first language. My native language is Hungarian.)

Tutoring I teach people how things work and why they work that way. I do the teaching mostly in written form, because I enjoy writing tutorials and manuals most. I don't mind sharing knowledge as long as I am not used solely as a tool for getting information. The main purpose of this blog is documenting the World Editor and teaching everyone the ways of map making. (Of course not all posts will be about the editor as I tend to write about myself and all the interesting stuff I come across)

Languages I love communicating in English. (Writing, not speaking) My pronounciation is terrible, but my grammar is better than native speakers' and my vocabluraly is pretty decent. My main languages are English and Hungarian, I also know some French, and I can fake-speak 32 more languages: Arabic, Bulgarian, Catalan, Chinese, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Filipino, Finnish, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese.
