Thanks! I am actually thinking of upgrading the card as well but that means getting a new motherboard and processor. I'm looking at prices of an Nvida 7900 GX card, an Asus Motherboard, and an AMD processor. I have an excellent case already (550 watt supply, 7 case fans) so all I need to do is exchange parts). What do you think?

Well, today I bought 2GB of memory for my computer. The upgrade will have to wait for now (medical bills coming in). So by next week I should be able to use the heightmap.

I think I can use the names like Darkmoor and Altaven. All the others can be from Morrowind or ideas from the membership.

Well I'm going to rate it lower, possibly a 3 or 4. That would be because the imperials have been taken away, but there allways be the orc factor to beef it up. :)

The Azhag Orc Camp will be the key. But the Dragon factor will make things a lot more chaotic.

No problem. The main quest is between Windhelm and Blacklight about the Nord invasion. But additonal questlines between Skyrim, Silgrad Tower, Vvardenfell will also be brought in. When I'm able to start with the heightmap we can start cellspacing between the cities and towns and get things going.

What house models are you going to use for Blacklight (The city)?

Also, when you get Blacklight started, will you also release the landscape made by the heightmap to the public so we can explore it?

No problems there. I still haven't decided which models to use for the city. Windhelm and Cormaris View are decided.

this sounds very cool... Rocking Banana
I'd say Blacklight could be a sort of melting pot... Imperial, Nord, and Redoran styles all coming in...

The chips came in today (now the computer has 2.5GB (have to check that 4th chip again to get it up to 3)). Now all I need to do is get some info on using the heightmap. Could someone give me some pointers or lead me to a tutorial?

Hi there Rodan,

Rw's put this up in his readme for Reich Parkeep. I'm hoping that I can offer the same assistance to you project, and that you will pin the same message:

quote:
Posted by raggidman:
For assistance with background history in the early stages of your work/s once you have made a claim, post a thread in Lit Dev (open or closed) and I will take it from there to the privacy of Editors Corner and thence post suggestions as appropriate. In this way we might develope 'go to' key people in the Province who are linked into several quests and events - which should be a powerful immersive factor if done well. Remember how people came to love Caius...well there will surely be other characters that we create, of whom we will grow fond, and this process can help identify them. They can be used for various purposes as appropriate.


Natch there are other stages in development of quests, including the all important go ahead from our grreat leaders (we're not worthy) but I hope this will be of especial help to people who are strong in graphics, but get nervous around plot and storytelling. The way I am setting things up in Lit Dev will hopefully encourage writers to strut their stuff and match up with modellers and programmer/quest devs. And even build up and identify bylines and new resources that project leaders can access to build up their main quests.

If you have any ideas that could improve this, please chech the open pinned thread in Lit Dev. And lookin forward to the dramas unfolding in the melting pot of Blacklight! Cheers
