Post by: Allifeur on April 30, 2013, 09:27:42 am
Hello everybody

 I restarted mapping four days ago, and I want to show you what I have done : The dungeon Zul'Dare. You might have already seen the begining of the work on my Kul Tiras post, but this version should be the last one.  

 Dungeon entrence :

 Let's go upstairs, to watch third boss's platform.

And then we go down !

[spoiler:2261fh8v](http://imageshack.us/a/img834/5580/wowscrnshot042913232626.jpg)
It's kind of broken...

Oh ! A hole !
(http://imageshack.us/a/img197/5415/wowscrnshot042913232651.jpg)
Let's jump in !

 The next part is leading to final boss room, so I will not show it. :P[/spoiler:2261fh8v]

And finally, the citadel from a distant point of view.

Heallo,

really like it :D There are not much Trollish buildings....

But what i was wondring are the missing Trolls, where itz named Zul'Dare where Zul is a word of Zandali the Language of the Trolls.

Thanks you everybody !

 => I made it for the server "Shadow Storm".

=> There are no trolls anymore on Zul'Dare, they were all killed during the second war when the island was taken by orcs as a military base. Then, Alliance attacked orcs and forced them to leave; but Alliance didn't stay on the island, because of the curse and some superstitions stuff. That's why Nagas ( led by the Warlord Zethresh ) took this Island to fight against Kul Tiras.
Actually, we will fight some trolls, but only ghosts summoned by nagas.

I dont like how MoP trees matching with whole zone. They are not suitable for me
Title: Re: [SHOWOFF] Zul'Dare
Post by: Allifeur on May 01, 2013, 02:17:04 pm
I wanted willow trees because they suit perfectly with the zone, in my opinion. I wanted to create the unique atmosphere of a cursed swamp. Why aren't they suitable for you ? Explain me, please.

You use way too much fog, it makes it look bad at certain parts. Also it lags players who have moderate computers. Otherwise it looks good, lego builders unite ;)
Title: Re: [SHOWOFF] Zul'Dare
Post by: Allifeur on May 02, 2013, 10:17:07 pm
That right, I put to much fog; but it was necessary to make the atmosphere I imagined. Mist is the better thing to absorb the player into a world.
 Without all this fog, my map would be naked and disappointing. If i delete every detail, we would only have empty rooms like that : http://imageshack.us/a/img405/8397/wows ... 234228.jpg (http://imageshack.us/a/img405/8397/wowscrnshot031613234228.jpg" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

 I made this map to try how I could make a temperature, a smell, or an impression only thanks to the mist. I'm sorry for weak computers !

I agree with you Allifeur. There's nothing wrong with the amount of fog you're using. It adds a lot of atmosphere,  it looks great, and we can't continue catering for crappy computers for the rest of our lives. WoW has been out for almost nine years and WotLK graphics are horrible as it is. If you can't handle some fog then I think it's time for an upgrade lol.

I'm not agreeing nor disagreeing, just making sure you are aware. It still looks great for it's purpose without the fog.
