omgthewallpapers!



Eager to listen to the extra music tracks, I just downloaded the new version of the bonus content and "lolwut? wallpapers?" => *opens folder* => :shock: => *brain explodes*



(I mean all of this in the most positive way :cool: )
jack1974
Ah yes for those who bought the bonus content, there are 18 (!) wallpapers in it. Including bathhouse ones :wink:

Did I read right somewhere..... a month till release? XD(or close to that? XD
jack1974
No sorry, I think I could manage to finish ACT3 at end of August, MAYBE :) but I'm not sure, even for ACT2 I didn't remember the real length. Also I just realized that I need also the tilemap for shacklesplit, and a few backgrounds are still missing... so depends also how quick the artists finish that :oops: At this point I think that a real deadline will be to finish everything this Fall!
Pace675
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!



Just kidding, take your time, this is a great beta, and I rather have it right in release that a needs to be patch consistently on release game.



Besides fall is 2 months away! XD
jack1974
Yes but Fall spans over 3 months, ends the 20th December :wink:

Haha jokes apart yes, I don't want to hurry, I prefer to do it right like with Roommates, the beta was a massacre, but then I never had to touch it again, so is better :)

Jariel showing interests in ships, also his "elegant oufit" here. Reminds me of some Roman emperor or something! Shacklesplit is really a nice sea town, isn't it? :mrgreen:

That peaceful (I bet there's a Kraken under the surface...) background reminds me of Bryggen in Bergen, Norway. :)

Since you're about to move on to act 3 I'll go ahead and ask this though you've probably already answered it some where. When are you going to add the arena building to the act 2 map?
jack1974
Eh, when the artist finishes it :oops: he's currently very busy with another bigger project, and since I didn't plan to do the tileset from beginning, there's a delay. Like, he just finished a few weeks ago the base Dingirra tileset, and now that I'm working on Act3 I'll do like before, do all the battles while I wait for him to do the other tilesets. Not really his fault, normally was faster, just a series of bad coincidences.

Spoilering some images from now on, for people who haven't played the game yet:

Doing Jariel's flashback quest today:

this one has Grandtree forest map, so will take a bit of time, since need to fix some tiles myself (artist is using all his spare time to finish the Dingirra's tileset!).

Um, Lianara somehow looks like a crossdresser. There's something masculine about her face - I believe it's her very prominent chin.
jack1974
I'm getting new elves sprites done, so maybe I can replace her face later :)

here's Grandtree map for Jariel's quest. Considering I had to fix some trees and draw the roads myself using other tiles for time reasons, the result isn't even too bad :)

looks like some fairyland :P
jack1974

Do elves actually lay out brick roads through their forests...?
jack1974
Hmn seemed more rough terrain to me, at least that was the intention :oops: anyway, when there's time will ask artist to do a better version. But considering he has still do finish arena of Dingirra, and then the whole Shacklesplit tileset (including maybe some tropical island) those are his priorities right now :)

I assume it was of a more...natural...material, and they had their druids firm it up. Waste not...want not ;)
