Between team cooperation?

That would be extremely useful and very, very kind of you, sandor! You'll already be familiar with my first initial claim for the BM 'Blackwood' region: Blackwood.

I'll post an emergency thread up in the core board for us to agree on the presets but this should provide some initial idea. I just need to check if we are going to use any other special BM assets.

Can we see this game plan JKJ?

Presumably, once the initial region generation has been done, the dunes can be added manually afterwards, so that isn't much of a problem.

By the way, me and Senten are working on Topal Isles.

Ibsen: I'll see you over at BM about that preset list.

Yes, you have to add the objects/textures manually to create a preset and adjust the settings e.g. the density, radius, sink value, vertex shading etc. Then generate a test area, change the settings until you're satisfied with the generated content.

Adding more objects makes the preset a lot complexer ---> It will take more time to find the correct settings.

When you're happy with the final result, send the (final) preset and I'll generate the lot.

The Game Plan is now up in the Elsweyr forums.

This progress is exciting to see! :banana:

Edit:

I have looked over JKJ's latest version of Elsweyr, 3.1 Again, everything at the modelling end seems to be done (with the exception of the Torval set, which is still being worked on by The Olde Ye Bard. They have 2 unique architecture sets (will have 3 when Torval's finished), and a retextured cave set, which should be plenty to finish the province.

The roadblock holding the whole project up is region generation. The south needs covering in jungle, the north in desert, and once that's we'll be away with Elsweyr as well. Add in some desert caves, enemy lists for spawning in the deserts, some minor settlements, and the Hall of Colossus, and we're done.

Haha,that's sounds amazing.

It is indeed! And sandor hath been duly crowned the man o' the moment and thrice-great, high and mighty Generalissimo of all! All hail with a banana salute! :bananarock:

P.S. I'm just finalising the agreement on the preset with the BM team.

If anyone needs it in the future I have most Skyrim files on my hard drive, I can send them to anyone that needs them.

Unfortunately I'm unsure if I ever plan to mod ES again... my computer isn't up to par to do it right now, and I'm sick of running into crashes with the CS and other external software. I feel like its time to move on to other things... then again though I may return summer 09. Who can say, ES is addictive.

[Deeza]

Could you send them to me, please?

I am hopefully going to make some new dungeons and quests for Skyrim in the near future.

On second thought Alasdair actually uploaded a new .esm recently-- I'm not sure if its all the files or just a patch. Either way check this thread it should have everything you need. *However* if the older DL links are broken I can see about uploading a new version of the .esm for you.
