I understand that.... but can we have an approximate deadline?
like from December20 -- January1???
:yes:

[Axen]

Probably within that time frame.

sounds good...
for now, concerning the heightmap we should specify and make out details of our plans...

and as for other stuff, encourage and help with interiors work, we need to get something started
or mod is again losing soem momentum, we need to try to keep it up, you know what I mean?

:goodjob: thanks

If we don't have mainland LOD, we might be able to go up to 5 * 6 quads approximately, and if a workaround to LOD gets found, we can add that LOD. Just an idea.

since we are no tsharing a heightmap with Silgrad, i don't think we need mainland LOD... and I don't think they are showing Vvar-LOD right? even though they say Red Mt. is slightly visible from from Mournhold in lore but I dunno... it is supposed to be huge though

[TheImperialDragon]

If Silgrad went by that, then there wouldn't be much land. But if a workaround is found, then that can be changed, and I think the same can take effect here. If there ever is a solution, then use it for that distant land LOD, if not, then it won't really affect the content of the mod too too much (hopefully).

EDIT: OR BETTER YET, we can have Vvardenfell covered in a veil of mist, at least surrounded by one! At least until a workaround is found! That way, it would not only look cool, but it would explain why the mainland doesn't show up!

We can blame it on the perpetually foggy weather of Vvardenfell for now. X-D

The Nerevarine was just the kind of person who was so powerful that his/her aura kept all fog away with a hard barrier at around 2 miles. Everyone else on the island was otherwise blind as a bat.

Zarf is a genius!

I agree... also Sea of Ghosts is known to be treacherous and foggy, so is the rainy Bitter Coast... I think fog can work... makes it seem more untamed island type...

[Axen]

I seriously hope you're joking.

[KuKulzA]

and why should we be joking?
or do you suggest we just end the ocean at a certain point and have Mr.player just look at a dead-end in the water that says you have reached the end of the world... ??
I just want to you to actually back up your statements with support, instead of making a weak statement :yes:

[TheImperialDragon]

How's this going?
