Not open for further replies.
well the map type is different, it's a risk map while this is orpg. lol

anyway, just felt like to post something just to inform the progress still worked on everyday.
I have currently made like 70+ new items so far, along with their own description tooltips. Also some equipment type are now splitted.
Armor divided into 4:
- Cloth (Mage, Priest)
- Plate (Warrior, Paladin, Death Knight)
- Leather (Hunter, Rogue)
- Mail (Warrior, Paladin, Death Knight, Hunter, Rogue)
Left Hand divided into 3:
- Shield (Warrior, Paladin, Death Knight, Hunter, Rogue)
- Book (Mage, Priest)
- Dagger (Rogue)

also, vendor NPC now has a hovering text under their head so player can easily found them. you can now talk with every NPC by clicking "Talk to (NPC Name)" (which now I made it as a text on screen instead of floating text), to gain some info, blab, or even a clue for secrets.

ok, now back working on terrain.

EDIT: New Ajzol-Nerub Entrance terrain sneak peek.

So I guess that's the entrance to Azjol-Nerub and even though it looks epic I don't know how well the frozen theme works with the lava.
 
Considering that this fortress is usually in a frozen landscape and has the color of one I don't know.
 
is there some kind of red lightning flash I see in the new entrance? overall, good job with the new one, althrough the spider head looks so funny.
 
The problem I have with the anubarack boss terrain is that there is the lava looking all destructive an all and then you get past the bridge and than it looks like nothing happend, I am just telling you what I think hope you understand what I'm trying tell you, anyway I like your terrains.
 
sorry, no progress for past several days due to bedrest.

ok, has read the comments about the entrance that should be in frozen landscape. well, there aren't any frozen landscape (yet) on the map, beside ajzol nerub layout itself doesn't based off 100% from the actual WoW and has non frozen zone looks needed to fit in (if you questioning about the lava, it is globally everywhere on the map). as for someone who mention about the lore, let say.. this map is my own version of Azeroth, so it isn't 100% related with the actual WoW lore itself.

anyway, just want to confirm 2 classic characters: Arthas and Grom would be available as secret characters on next brand new version.

New Secret Characters

The idea of making famous figures in Warcraft appear as secret characters in your map looks good.

Can't say much but I do think some more could be added such as Illidan, Uther, Maiev and etc.

Overall, good luck and more powers to you project. +rep for the update and the great work as well, I was starting to think that the project got stopped of some sort but this update did enlightened me.
 
That Grom looks cool! Where did you find this? A recolor of his model in WoD?
I found one on a korean site back on 2010, and edit the model to fit in. just fyi, it's using WoW orc base model.

Would do, but I only choose some classic characters that take a big role on warcraft history due to filesize limitation. And Illidan is considerable to include in the future (the one before he consume skull of gul'dan and grow demonic wings).

Anyway, thanks for the support. Don't worry, the project won't be stopped.
 
I love the new characters and I agree with Hell Master but I think you should add one character of every playable race to please everyone.
 
Yep, will do. This is current consideration of classic secret characters with their representative race:

NE - Illidan (before he consume skull of gul'dan and grow demonic wings)
BE - Might be Kaelthas (will change the current fire mage base model and customize a new one if this happen)
Undead - Undecided (might be undead version of Sylvanas)
 
If I could share my favorites.

Night Elf - Tyrande Whisperwind
Blood Elf - Lor'Themar Theron
Undead - Sylvanas Windrunner
Tauren - Cairne Bloodhoof
Troll - vol'Jin
Goblin - Gallywix
Pandaren - Taran Zhu
Dwarf - Bran or Magni
Draenei - Velen
Worgen - Genn Greymane
Gnome - Gelbin Mekkatorque
 
thanks for the reccommendation of picking choices. actually due to certain reasons (like trying to make the size not to ever reach 8mb) some races like Troll, Tauren, Goblin, Pandaren, Worgen and Gnome doesn't available on the game at the moment. Drawf is there tho, but only as a vendor NPC.
 
unfortunately I wouldn't include neither Rhonin or Krasus, since I intend to only include 5 secret characters (1 figure per available race on this map) that known by people generally as you know, not everyone read the lore. beside since secret characters require a code to unlocking it, what's the point of including alot of them when only few people that actually could found the code? :)

anyway, terrain is still on reworking, new sneak peek screenshots will be coming eventually.
 
@heinvers: hmmm haven't touch the terrain yet, currently making a WIP of new hunter and warrior class at the moment.

@Razosh: currently Sulfuras is the only legendary weapon that available on the map (low chance dropped by ragnaros), maybe there'll be like 4 legendaries to include in further version.

thanks for the compliments.

hmmm I didn't plan to include Val'anyr as one of legendary due to it's tremendous poly. beside, I'm only include 1 legendary per weapon type and sulfuras is already picked as a legendary mace instead of val'anyr.
