Well, I'm not quite sure if I keep working on it, mostly because it's the first one and it doesn't look as good as it should (meaning that I need to make it look good....), but thanks.

The City of Thousand Aspects

Citizen: Elves (Blood Elves, High Elves?)
Friendly: Neutral / Friendly (?)

Lore: (Upcoming soon) / Planned: The City of Thousand Aspects was built about 1400 years ago. The city itself was first just a ceremonial area where people lived peacefully inside the walls. The gate was closed for a long time so that nobody could leave the city. But just a while ago the gate was opened again so that the citizen could explore the lands around. But while the citizen were living inside the city without any connects to the outerlands, the unknown darkness has invaded the lands which one were pure but which now are under turmoil. The buildings in towns are wrecked and run-down, the forests which once were bright green are now dark..... The animals which once lived in peace are now under the control of dark...

! the state of lore is in progress !




This city is the latest (and probably the first) of my works. I'm probably going to include it to my project (after the whole map is ready).

As you can see from the screenshots, the city (and the map of course) is still in progress. I will probably update this thread while working on the map and after I've finished it.

I'm still thinking how I could decorate the buildings and what to add (barrels, boxes, lights, chairs and benches, rugs, tables, candles, books, etc.). Also I need to do some rework with the texture and add/swap more bushes/trees, etc.

Unfortunately I also came up with the little issue....MFBO chunks (again...) Of course I've taken a backup from my latest work and it seems that I also have to replace the "damaged" chunks with the original ones. But those chunks just seem to get violated while doing a lot of terrain editing....

But now, let me introduce you 'The City of Thousand Aspects' (the name will probably change if I change the lore.... and I will probably post the lore later, too. The city looks better in-game than in screenshots but...).

Please, comment/criticize, rate and so on. All feedback is welcome. Hopefully you like it.

Thanks.

Alright, thanks for the help. I will try Noggit rev 104 to see if it works any better than 120. Then if it doesn't, I will check the older version of Taliis.

Edit: There must be something wrong with Taliis, because Noggit rev 104 crashes when trying to load any of the maps I've created in Taliis. I try the other version to see if that is the problem. I will let you know the results.

Edit2: Strange..... I changed tools but none of them seems to do the trick... Somehow I think that it's Noggit rev 120 that corrupts the things (why? I saved adts one by one and I even saved one adt that I didn't even edit... strange).
By the way guys, what tools do you use because I just don't get my maps to work...

Edit3: I don't know if this is strange or not but I haven't added any doodads yet.... Still my Noggit log shows: [spoiler:zr33bz6h]217401 - (model.cpp:110): [Debug] Unloading model "worldazerothelwynnpassivedoodadstreescanopylesstree01.m2".[/spoiler:zr33bz6h] before unloading the tiles.... But it wouldn't explain why the areas don't show...




MORE SCREENSHOTS:
The first screenshot shows what it's alike when accessing the edited area/(adt?).

HERE we can see how the mountains should look and what happens when I access to the area... .What does this prove? I used only Noggit rev 120 and Taliis.... So Noggit must be the one that fucks up those chunks... right? Though Taliis wont load any of the .adt files (only the original adt template file).

And you added the objects in Taliis as .mdx files, (not as m2 files)?

Thanks! At least now I know where to start

I didn't ask you to build a nuclear bomb.... I asked if anybody knows how the walls work and IF NOT then I could write a tutorial about making wintergrasp style walls to map.

Hey,

I just got a question because I would like to use Wintergrasp style walls but I don't know how they work (I mean that they can be seen from far away but setting up walls as gameobjects doesn't work because they cannot be seen from far).  I'm asking this because I need those kind of walls to my new map but I don't know how they "work".

Thanks.

My noggit (rev 104) displays everything in the middle range, not as a day or night, but it's always night in-game.
