That wasn't a doodad, that is custom blending. Doodads are pieces of terrain the can stand alone without additional cliffs, and other surrounding additions. With perfect blending of cource...

Reblended several ramp complexcies. Created a new major doodad. Edited triggers for town to react to enemys using guards and other units available.

Your terrain racks!!:) Make more

The entire 256 x 256 is going to be extended.

Just finished 50% DDB anexation with current finished extended terrain.

Of that 50% :

100% Terrain Mirrors Removed
100% Succesful Reblends
100% Legitement Sprites Added

Yeay, no more mirrors.

But you're adding in sprites? What's happened...

sprites are our best friends........they cover up our mistakes
bow down to the amends........they dont make stuff look fake

Didn't I put legitement sprites? Are you people idiots or wut?

That means I put down normal tree bases and rock bases and put the correct tree tops and rock tops on them... No mistakes. I hate using sprites to cover anything.

I hate newbs who use sprites to cover blockiness. Newbs.

I do it all the time. Sorry, but my terrain is just hack and slash to get something done. I'm not an artist like Wooden, I don't mind manipulating my terrain so the end user sees only parts of it, or using sprites to cover up problems.

Oh good, I thoguht you ment legitiment sprites as in "OMFG WTF OH NOES UNBLENDABLE OMFG PUT COOLZOR SPRITES YEAY!"

lol i could never imagine wooden placing a sprite. I mean, if i saw one i'd be like. "OMG wooden, why do u need this sprite ?"

blending is only pixel deep, that's why YOU should try SPRITEPLACE! SPRITEPLACE will get rid of those areas that dont match! You can choose from tree sprites, rock sprites, and even spell sprites!
The use of sprites may cause crashing, SPRITEPLACE® is not responsible for any map that crashes in game
GET SPRITEPLACE NOW!

I am beginning to realize that 17 pages of posts is getting too intense for some new people to get accurate progressive information on the RPG. I will later this week try to have a major update on the starting thread and remember people.

My picture in my signature is a direct clickable link to Crescent Dyne's first thread! Even though the spelling is wrong, and I didn't change it to a newer version, I do want people to keep updated by reading at least 3-5 pages deep into the latest thread discussion.

Sorry for the 17 page delema, I hope to make it so I will constantly be updating the main thread for much more acurate progressive information.

Thankyou.

Keep being active. I would like to see some ideas, some wondering system ideas, boss ideas and others can either be posted here, or via PMing me.

Yea also half of the 17 page is ppl like o-0's posts

btw i was wondering you were talking about like content 3 doing terrain and etc. is the different content or w/e you talk about going to be like chapters? and how many are you planning on having..

I tip my hat off to you Woodenfire. Keep it up.

I have started terrain on Continant 3, which is South Western large island. There are 3 major continants and over 9 minor islands which many more unpopulated islands.

I have continued to make alterations with terrain blending and continue to accept ideas from WilhelmEsque, Wrathlord, and Urmom from clan GGG.

Continant #3 is around 72.5% Complete.
-Special Blends 90%
-Reblending Jobs 100%
-Full DDB Addition 60%
-DDB Revamp Runthrough 40%

Yay! Ill be able to test with you after Thanksgiving becasue I have the rest off.

lol unfortunatly i'm leaving (O noez!) on wednesay so i won't be able to test untill saturday.

So... this DDB thing, what's the point in having it if you already know what pieces go where and how to make them

There are many custom blends, they're sexy. (Sucha s the crashed carrier. STILL MY FAVORITE.)

DDB Information

The purpose of the DDB system is to display in a 256x256 map, custom downloadable brush pallet, and Porto-Dad (Copyright pending) to help assist map makers to completely cover their terrain with color intensive doodads to add flavor and originality to your basic terrian.

The collection is masterfully completed and when completed, will be the largest database of perfet-blended doodads for RPGs, Bounds, Defenses, and any other sort of map.

Is it Lr-Magnum?

Yea it is Lr-Magnum, i was talking to him earlier about it.


Lol, are you seriously going to copywright it or were you joking?


wooden you ought to be a telemarketer or something, you make it all sound so appealing.

Don't forget Wooden that I can help you with some triggering parts. Might I also add that you need to reorganize your triggers a lot because the more you do, the more confusing it gets.

I plan on definitely finishing Alpha Continant 3 (Not Alpha whole map, BIG difference) and just need to reblend maybe 1 more ramp to make it unique and then use DDB,custom grass, custom mud, custom rocky dirt, custom cliff-shaper tiles and I will be done.

I then need to do Water doodads/items around the 3rd continant and extend them out till the next land where I will wait until that land is finished before going to parallel lakes/rivers/seas/oceans with more Water doodads/items.

Testers will not be needed for triggers on Crescent Dyne, although I need more trigger systems done and tested (Please see me online for more details)

I need aesthetics supervisors and critics from Pre Alpha Offical Testers only.

If you wish be still become an Offical Pre Alpha Tester, please send to me in a PM, a formal letter stating your reasons for getting into the program, your activity rate per week, your past expereice with testing, and what you can bring to the testing team.
