If you go to View -> check Light, the Editor will seemingly go from day to night to day again, like in the game :D It's great for getting some different angled screenshots ;)

Wow, my terrain looks much better when you screenshot it, LOL! :D

About the runes --- I intended them to be a sort of place where you could gauge the town's morale, or just see its effect (and I thought another fountain would be redundant). I was planning on putting in a small statue there instead, but didn't want to take the time to rescale it lol :p :)

I was thinking that for the graveyard, it could also be a sign of the town: When a player dies, a gravestone (not a wooden plank -_-) will turn their color. When the leader of the town guard dies or whatever, a large statue will appear at the back of the graveyard. I was plannign on turning the graveyard into a larger cemetary later on, actually :)

And it pretty much only looks that way because of the Heavy Lorderaon Rain, Felwood Sky, and Midnight settings ;)

What more do you need again? Like, idea wise? Because my hero is still being rated and whatnot...

Anything :D Items, ideas about the techtrees, random abilities you think might work for this hero or that hero, features for the game, if you submit it, unless I think it's completely out of genre, we'll discuss it and probably use it :D

ok so you guys are still on terrain, i had a short little idea that i think would be semi usefull/cool. I saw the grave yard behind the church, and you said thier woudl most likely be a quest thier, well how about a mini-game/secondary quest as well? i was thinking you get "telepoerted" into a area that is terrained like the inside of a coffin and in thier is tons little coffins, so a big coffin, with lots of little ones inside it! and the game is timed, you have to dig up as many coffins as you can, getting gold/items/exp, but in order to keep the items/gold/exp you must dig up a certain coffin (randomized each try of course) and if you get that item, every thign you dig up is yours to keep. :D good luck as always!

No offense, but it seems to RPGish to me :D And plus, I detest having to make a part of the map boundaried off so that you can "go into" a crypt, or something... It always makes the map look so bad when you play it -.-

It's a good idea, though! :D If only I could have it as a second map that loads when someone goes in it -.- But alas :(

Bump -.- Second page again.

Me and Shadowy came to an agreement about the terrain. I'm going to set up the base of the map (paths, hills, cliffs and stuff) and he will start on making a base of doodads. Then, he will hand it BACK to me, and we'll just sort of go back and forth perfecting it :) This means the terrain may get set up a little quicker (since this means we will both be annoying each other to hurry the hell up :p) and hopefully be as great as both of us have been known to create :)

Just to let you guys know we're still hard at work ;)

Eh, I should be able to give you a pretty cool shot of the alpine forest today or tomorrow :)

Oh, and so you all know, I am experiencing major computer problems; they are persistent and more related to the computer going out of date and whatnot and being incompatible with some components we have (had to take out a corrupted RAM disk so I am running at 128 now :(), so it will take a bit longer on my end of the terraining. I hope you all can be patient for the unveiling of this grand project :)

Oh, and I leave for vacation in two days, rofl :p (for a week) So have fun without me then :D

Just so you know, most of the Evil heroes and quite a few other units will have custom skins or models. We haven't even begun making the abilities yet, and we won't until terrain is done. We're trying to take it in steps to keep from confusing ourselves and trying to do a million things at once. So, in short (after that big paragraph, lol) we won't be showing you any units for awhile! STOP ASKING! :p (No, seriously, stop asking, lol)

Shadowy:
Yeah, looks like I'll be on my own for a week :( Ah well, I'll manage :)

BTW: thanks!

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though

    Heard Houston got hit pretty bad by storms last night. Hope all is well with TH.
