Elwynn Forest

[I)eadnerzhul]

...Where art thou', Elwynn Forest? Come on guys! I can't wait until you start making da' umie' zones! They are my FAVORITE part of World of Warcraft, and Stormwind happens to be one of the most legendary human cities in the whole damn game! Are you guys working on it yet, or are you still planning it out?

 

[Craka_J]

Haven't started working on Stormwind yet. However, we've started on two maps worth of the Elwyn Forest zone. So don't you worry, we're working on it... but barely. First, we want to finish more Horde places. However, ~Void~ said that he is going to start working on Teldrassil and hopefully finish that.

Meh, Teldrassil... I hate the Night Elfs. Too feminine/feline/Druidic based race. Even the guys are feminine. The Orkish WAAAAGH!!! is awesome, but the Orcs of Warcraft can't quite cut it. The Tauren... are meh. Trolls are... also meh. Humans are my utmost favorite. They have the COOLEST starting zone. My only problem is that they look ugly without beards.

But it's nice to know you're getting there. When can we expect to see screenshots?

 

[Craka_J]

Well don't expect any screenshots from Elwyn Forest or Stormwind any time soon. However, if ~Void~ is working well, perhaps he may have an area or two done enough to show us what he's got so far.

What are the map sizes?
Will it be 256 x 256 - 480 x 480?

 

[Craka_J]

They all have their own map sizes. Most of them are 256 x 256. WEU crashes on me a lot, so I can never extend the map size to 480 x 480.

Let's hope ~Void~ gets them done and ready for screenies soon!

 

[~Void~]

I've been inactive with exams coming up and all, so not much progress has been done. I'm trying to fit space in on the weekends but with everything else at school and with my band there isn't much time to make maps

 

[Craka_J]

Remember when I said there would be no screenshots of Elwyn Forest or Stormwind? Well already I have released screenshots of Stormwind, but I have yet to get to Elwyn Forest. I started it a while ago but never finished it. It's very difficult to terrain when you don't have a WoW Map Viewer that works anymore. I'll probably be looking for a terrainer to help me with the terrain of Elwyn Forest and probably a few other areas, so look out for me saying "ALAS A NEW TERRAINER!" Somewhere on the forums.

Where can I find said pictures of Stormwind? Can I get a link?

Woooooo human!!!

 

[Craka_J]

Yep. And just to correct myself from before when I said "I can never make a 480x480 map" I didn't realize that Jass New Gen made it easily possible. So yeah, 480x480 maps can be expected. But not all will be maximized since it isn't totally necessary.

Nice to know. Keep up the good work my friend.

Orgrimmar alone is about 320x320. Maybe a bit larger. I don't want to make the map larger than it needs to be. It already accomplishes the WoW-like feel enough with its scale and precise tile/object placements as well as rotation of objects.

Gilneas and Quel'thalas Silvermoon!!!

~Will you add the FORGOTTEN REALM of GILNEAS?
~Will there be a Silvermoon?
~BTW, you just said that there will be no BLOOD ELVES...
so does it means there's a HIGH ELF or HIGHBORNE in the GAME?
I love the HIGHBORNE...

I hope I can wander there soon.
