Hi!

I hav this started map that i was making few months ago, and i was thinking about the possibility to make a collaboration or cbp to finish it. Otherwise i couldn´t work on it anymore, cos now i´m working on other projects. I know people don´t know about new tiles and effects of WGR2, but it could be a cool idea to work on this...

I was thinking on William G and Spiker, u both hav experience with the mod, if u like the map and hav some time, maybe we can to share some ideas by pm.

Of course anyone who´s interested can join the project

We´ll see...

Edit: some shots:

Is there some kind of timeframe to get this done by? Also, what is the plot behind this level going to be?

I'm interested in working on this, of course I'm currently in the middle of my own map at the moment, so I won't be able to work on this for 3-4 months (lets hope people will still map for Duke when DNF comes out), but if/when I do get around to this, I'd probably make a small village to fight through; a WGRealms 2 style village would be so awesome.

Edit: Decided to tweak the map a bit. Nothing new really, I raised the ceiling of the outside area by quite a bit, and added a slim area behind the wall of the place where you start, just for looks. I wonder if this could become one of those things where people download it, add a bit, and re-upload it for others to do the same.

i think it looks pretty good but nothing i would enjoy :S

@Norvak: Those screens look good and I'm kind of feeling like working on WGR2 again. Any chance that you are up to making a full map? It doesn't have to be as big or elaborate as the existing maps, there are other things that can be done. For example, you could make a DM style map and then I could make a new single player game mode to go with it (maybe something invasion style like that new Attrition mode).

[Spiker]

Looks cool, if only I had time.

Sounds good. So maybe i could do something with this, not large in extension but big and open areas to fight in.
Send me a pm to concrete the idea u hav in mind if u wish.

hehe that is actually correct. but my style is that i want to play duke nukem 3d o.O i dont know why but i just dont like custom textures or not so detailed 3d models. that just doesnt make a decent mod for me. i want some new maps and maybe some cool .con events. that is why i am making my mod. im pretty sure that many people wont find my mod interesting because they think that the stuff like new models are pretty awesome. but thats just not me
i do want to say that your map looks interesting!

[Mike Norvak]

I was thinking this map actually works better like a single map instead of a DM style map, so it worths to work on this like a regular map, anyway i could make those woa-styled maps for wgr2 as u tell me Dan. Look fordwars...

Nice one, looking doomish!

No, more like WGRealms. I know, some art is from Quake and Doom, but the atmosphere is unique. Neither Quake nor Doom have all those surprises I found there; and I'm not even through. And the new screens beg you to enter. Wow.

[NerdZilla]

This whole project seems really cool. Where can I get the mod to check out the map.
I'm interested in seeing what could do to help.

PS: I know when DNF comes out. I'll still be mapping some DN3D maps.
I'm kind of hoping the E-duke will work online soon. So I can make some MP maps and Co-Op.

Looks really cool!

[bullerbullerseven]

Maps are looking good norvak

[William Gee]

Design is looking good, I dunno if the sky and water fit with those rocks though, maybe try lava and redish sky or grey sky.

Thanks!

Ho ho ho. It's planned to be part of the gameplay :X

[William Gee]

oh I see nice haha.

[Sebastian]

I really like the palette! Nice going.

[Mike Norvak]

Thanks!

If i keep mapping at this speed i'll finish soon...
The map's gonna be called "(Something) Fortress" Does anyone has any idea?

[Micky C]

When I saw your earliest screenshots I wasn't really all that interested in the map, but I started liking it more and more as it developed and now I'm really looking forward to it!

Um, how about Vielangst Fortress? It comes from the german "viel angst" which basically means much/a lot of fear.

[Gambini]

[Mike Norvak]

@Gambini: Eh? what? .... why?

@Micky C: "Vielangst" It doesn't sound too bad, but I feel it doesn´t fit either with the map or the word "fortess", does anyone have another suggestion?

Well, the idea is to make a new 3 level episode (?) for WGR2. I already hav in my mind most parts of the maps and the general design, so this is only about time. Maybe 2 or 3 months?

Some shots of the first level:




The second level:



For those who Can´t see shit

[Micky C]

Ok how about 'GipfelBerg Fortress'? It's kind of like 'mountain peak' since it looks quite high up.

[Gambini]

Looks badass. I like the coastlines.

Imageshack has changed their policy and now only sites that previously registered their domain with them can display their direct link images. I´ve been seeing frogs inside ice instead of the screenshots so much for here as for AMC and other forums i wander around. I´ve tried registering this and all those other sites in imageshack (depite i´m not the owner of any of them) and apparently it worked. However, I began using photobucket from now on.
