Forum / Workshop / DM-{{WaR}}Land progress

old thread was old, so i decided to post up a new one.

Yeah, i haven't forgotten about my little project, and it's alot better than seen before.
Got some pix of it tew >:3

But before i post pix, i changed the idea around alot. In the middle, you got the main WaR castle and a small town. Seeing as individual custom rooms are time consuming, we all got barracks to live in :)

But don't fret, even though we all won't have individual rooms, i'll make up for it with fun content. I've got an idea for a pretty cool co-op quest, kinda legend of zelda-ish in style(run around in big ass open areas, alongside plundering tombs and finding unique and cool weapons to smash heads with.) Each area is planned to be different with different challenges.

The above is a look at the back(south) side of the map.

the next one is a look at the east side of the map, note the crystal mountain in the skybox/horizon, i actually plan for you to be able to go there. :P

This next one is a look at the {{WaR}} Castle from the front.

^ looks rather sexy, i might add.
The town outside the castle has a nice manor, an inn, a smithy and a few peasant homes.

No castle is not complete without a dungeon.

I got a small list of shit i got planned for this map( and some requests)..

A farm. i can make the farmhouse just fine, but i am looking for a texture artist to make a texture of say..wheat stalks standing up? i plan to use said texture as a sheet and 'plant' it in rows to kinda fill up space in the fields. Also, i would appreciate if someone made a Manatee creature/cattle thing to add to the farm.

I need a stone plaque like texture, rectangular, and it lists current clan members. As far as aesthetics go, im looking for a greyish marble, with silver writing. +100 internets if you add silver floral designs as well. I believe this would be better than statues, as statues can rape old computers in the mechanical ass and cause lag.

When the time comes around, i plan to make seasonal versions(snowy/christmas,scary/halloween,spring) and update the clan stone as necessary with new members.

A last request, I need that texture of the war clan poster. You know the one with ragnar on it with the axe and shield, sword on back.

Looks fucking sweet man you've gotten good at mapping

you will have to convert it to .bmp

Thanks Brah!

Wow very nice.
Pro mapping skillz  ;)

Epic map :) You rock

Ill work on a plaque for you when i get the time

Well, here's what i got planned for the questline:

The player awakens in War land's main city.

You soon find the that land has been plagued by all manner of dark creatures,townspeople are very afraid to leave outside the city walls.

In the ancient times of these lands, the divine architects made these massive crystals which run as a spiritual energy source for the land, but are found to be corruptible. No one has visited the Crystals in ages, and it is proposed that they are probably the source of all evil

The perilous journey will take you through some of the most forsaken places known to man

Dark forests, ancient crypts, cascading mountains, subterranean caverns and even through the very gates of Hell.

The map will of course pertain to what i'm best at doing, and that is making dark gothic environments with a high medievil feel.

Sounds all epic
But.. Are you going to include EVERYTHING in a single map? You do realise it's gonna be laggy.

Won't be that laggy. I'm gonna experiement with the Ambush actor. Basically what it's supposed to do, when triggered, it spawns squads of monsters, instead of having them wandering around for you ( but there will be a few wandering around..)

Essentially, monsters will only spawn when you're THERE. i believe this would cut down on lag.

This also could add to variety. I could porbably get it to spawn random squads, essentially making it like random final fantasy battles almost.

^ <3<3<3<3 sounds like epic
