thanks, still the same actually, on lava pathway. (unit size is about as big as his finger)

Sorry I must have missed it. Sounds pretty weird though.

walking on the lava part? lol I know it's unreasonable but I always wanted to create this kind of dungeon.

You can still make a lot of lava and just make a pathway of rocks instead of making them as tall as you've made them, it worked well for Blizzard after all.

 

[Heinvers]

I think that what Razosh told you could work. Just a narrow rock pathway on which the player could walk. The rest is awesome as it is now

 

[Chen]

Incredible terrain! I love Ragnaros!

 

[Razosh]

Well it's a WoW rip it's not that hard to get Ragnaros in there, though I have to admit the terrain looks pretty neat.

 

[Heinvers]

Yes it does. The terrain is something rare. Although it can be further improved. Good luck andrea.

 

[andreariona]

thanks for the comments.
rock pathway thru the lava? considerable.

still editing doodads model at the moment to fitting in the terrain.

 

[Chen]

Rock pathway though the lava would be great. I'm excited to see more terrain from you.

 

[andreariona]

thanks for the interest.

anyway, just to show some progress, just finish editing models for seoulia, this is the current WIP layout of the new soulia terrain sneak peek (biggest city in the game). unit placed is for size comparison, also haven't decorate it yet as I'm still relayouting whole terrain at the moment.

also thinking to made some buildings enterable as well so player can access inside, especially shop.

 

[Heinvers]

Enter-able ones? That's a great idea my dear As for the city WIP, it's good. Keep making these wonderful terrains

 

[Binsu]

Looks awesome and nothing much to say. Simply cool. I would be waiting for its final state with the decoration to better give critics here.

Enterable houses are also a great idea, definitely it's something you should not miss for an RPG. And an idea, you could maybe have some sort of a enterable house containing a secret underground dungeon of some sort?

Good luck!

 

[andreariona]

thanks for the compliments guys.

I guess I decided to include enterable buildings since some weapon attachments can be used as indoor doodad decoration as well instead of only use it as attachment, especially on weapon shop (might also adding custom shield attachment as well later depend on the size).
also secret dungeon from an enterable house idea sound interesting, I'll consider about this one.

just need to remake ajzol nerub and whole map layout remake is done so I could move on to start decorate the terrain.

 

[Heinvers]

If u do that, you'll be a hero! And attachments as decorations too sounds good. I can't wait to see the remade Ajzol Nerub "--"

 

[Chen]

Looking great! But maybe add more doodads.

 

[gwapopogi53]

An "arena-thing" should be on that city. Where 2 players will have a time limit duel the winner receives some kind of an award. Just a suggestion though..hehe
As expected from andrea, amazing terrain. *thumbs-up*

 

[andreariona]

thanks, there might be an underground level on the new ajzol nerub, I got some good references.

thanks, it's still a terrain layout at the moment btw.

thanks, since some ppl wanted a PvP arena on a main city, I'll consider about this one. (perhaps a gladiator arena as well, where player can challenge BOSS, not as strong as dungeon boss though)

It would be cool, but just note that it'll be difficult to get the camera to work properly inside it. You might want to keep that in mind before you start decorating! (unless you already have that taken care of)

If you need shops, you can always do something similar to Gaia's retaliation where you walk in and it ports you to a different area representing the inside of the shop (this also gives you more space).

 

[andreariona]

ah, yeah actually that was I intend to do (player walk into a circle and then teleport it into different area as it is inside of building), not an upper roof that vanish when player entering the building. lol

 

[Heinvers]

That's exactly how I do it back at TotSC. It's much more convenient as PurgeandFire said. Otherwise I wish good inspiration for you!

 

[Razosh]

Unless you want to make a first person perspective based game removing the roof upon entry is the best choice by far.

 

[Heinvers]

That too, but she definitely aims for an RPG. So the separate indoor areas are the best choice.

 

[gwapopogi53]

Thumbs-up for the separate indoor areas. (y)
It's easier, in a way that you can easily decorate the room with weapons and stuff just like what you're planning to do. It's also simpler to add rather than those banishing roofs and transparent rooms which I think is a little complicated.

 

[Heinvers]

Is is! I once saw that when MedMapGuy made Mordork's Quest. Plus it was horrible in my opinion @gwapopogi53. Anyway good luck my dear :3

 

[Chen]

Yeah, that bar adventure?

 

[Heinvers]

Yeah, that bar adventure?

No off-topic please. We'll talk on my page OK? No not that. Anyway I'm curious what will turn out from this city!

 

[Chen]

I'm just helping you, just one post..

 

[Heinvers]

@andreariona btw I hope to see outlaws like thieves or ogres or something like that in your map. Other than that good luck to you :3 Kudos to you "-"

 

[Chen]

Yeah those creeps would be cool.

 

[Razosh]

You could have the Defias led by either Edwin or Vanessa Vancleef which could lead to Onyxia who in turn could lead to Deathwing who in turn could lead to the Old Gods. Great benefit for everyone.

Did the Hammer of Thor hit you with inspiration Razosh? It's an interesting plot btw. We'll se how she decides about this idea.

If you're going to put Deathwing in a game you need to make sure to make an Old God the final boss since Deathwing is not his own villain so that was a huge screwup by Blizzard. My personal favorite is Yogg-Saron so I'd say go with also because it makes sense since you already have Azjol-Nerub and Yogg-Saron is in a smaller way related to the Lich King so it's only logical if the living Nerubians would seek revenge.

And yes my pagan gods do look over me though it's Huggin and Munnin who whisper things in my ear. And as we all know God is not of the same materia as the Norse gods since there's a reason he does not appear in Smite.

 

[Heinvers]

Yogg-Saron is in a smaller way the puppeteer of the Lich King so it's only logical if the living Nerubians would seek revenge.

That sounds good enough.

And as we all know God is not of the same materia as the Norse gods since there's a reason he does not appear in Smite.

A bit off-topic but still good. and maybe you're right.
And I was struck by archangel Michael while I started to work on my terrains, thank you very much.
Yogg-Saron Or C'thun if she decides to add maybe the silithid.

 

[gwapopogi53]

@andrea -- I agree on that gladiator mode, btw. Sounds good.

 

[andreariona]

sure, thieves and ogres are considerable.
hmm.. as for old Gods like Yogg-Saron or C'thun I'm not really sure, since idk what kind of dungeon theme would fitting in with them. their mesh is also as high as 2 new base classes, this made me thinking twice, unless it's a special boss like deathwing it is. lol
I was planning for a titan-like dungeon tho (sort of skyland) in near future and (maybe) some classic boss only dungeon such as Gruul's and Magtheridon's lair.

 

[Razosh]

As for the setting Yogg-Saron was imprisoned in Ulduar which would go perfectly with your Titan theme.

 

[andreariona]

ok, considerable.

anyway, just finish the whole new re-layouting terrain, this is some part of ajzol nerub new layout sneak peek. decorating time now. hopefully the brand new version can be released on last day of this month, as I'll be a busy bee from march and on.

New Ajzol Nerub Layout WIP

 

[Heinvers]

Oh my Looks interesting :3

 

[Chen]

Wow! Hope it will look better than the original.

 

[andreariona]

Oh my Looks interesting :3

thank you.

Wow! Hope it will look better than the original.

lol. impossible.

anyway, just done remake over everafter forest, this is a sneak peek of certain area of it.

 

[Heinvers]

WoW. It's awesome. I love the volcanic areas:3

 

[Edge45]

What the? the terrains look epic. So beautiful
Like WoW,

 

[andreariona]

thanks for the compliments.

 

[Chen]

Thanks Deathwing and andreareona for making that terrain possible.

 

[Binsu]

The terrain looks really great and some suggestions, I do not know if you already did this with your terrains but I do think it won't hurt commenting it. I would suggest maybe adding some glows on some doodads or destructibles.

And this, not completely related with the terrain being shown just now but I do think the map as well could use some secret areas or spots that when discovered or found, would give the players some rewards. The secret area containing valuable treasures or loots and possible, even a secret boss which drops secret items.

 

[Heinvers]

@Hell Master You mean like in Maiev's quest on the Broken Isles were u can find a Pandaren Brewmaster and get some items? That's a good suggestion.

 

[Binsu]

Yes, like that or in a specific place, you can find secret bosses, items and even dungeons to add as well.

 

[andreariona]

sure, there are some treasure chest placed on the map actually (openable per-game).
I haven't think about secret boss yet, if it isn't sinestra, maybe old gods like yogg saron would fit in.
thanks for the suggestion.

 

[Holymind]

Your maps have the best mods.

This map has the best gameplay:
