[WiP] [Show-off] Andorhal

[SCONE]

Heyo guys and girls!

This is just a quick work in progress (And show-off) of what me and a partner have created.

The reason for Andorhal being restored etc, is that it's part of a long process of restoring the plaguelands, and obliterating the scourge on Azeroth, to then bring back the Blackrock orcs to have some good ol' fashioned Orc v Human action.

It took a lot of co-ord crunching and trial and error but this is our first project, so constructive criticism would be brilliant for us to have.

Here's a screenshot slide show:

To do list:

Edit the minimap to correspond with Andorhal's new state.
Find a blue-roofed Chapel

Looks nice I like the use of objects =)

[mmodame]

Looks nice so far. I love these ideas, I wish Blizz had spent more time building more "old Wow" for the Caverns of Time could have been an instance hub for tons.

Are you going to build any events around it?

[SCONE]

@Zantas92 Thanks for the compliment!

@Mmodame Well events as such yeah, but the RP server won't go mainstream, just a few friends and word of mouth etc, thanks for the compliments and interest , Our goal is to go back to the essence of Warcraft, give up on the wee-boo neutral towns and inspire some total anarchy between the humans and orcs.

[mmodame]

I like it, I'll have to become a friend then, lol

I need to get off my butt and start building, I keep seeing everyone elses cool ideas and get distracted! I loved classic WoW stories and wish they'd quit trying to dumb it down.

[djabber]

Very nice. I quitted wow RP cause of those Wee Boo neutral RP and Failures joining decent RP servers. Good that it won't go mainstream. Trust me, it'll save you alot of misery. This baby makes me wanna go back to wow RP

Very impressive.

[Aryzar]

Quite nice there SCONE. Nice pics as for M2, but texture's, it a little too light. That makes everything look to pale and overexposed. Duno try something darker. Trust me will do good.

[alj03]

Wow that looks really awesome.

I like it, nice screenshots also. :P

[sirfranc]

very good , very well done +Rep
i'm going to make the Andorhal Highlands as well (for my RP serveR) and i was thinking about something like that (altough i'm thinking about keeping the actual tree, those aren't really corrupted after all)

I don't get the problem with the neutrality in RP servers after all, is not really role-play to kill someone on sight (and for example the New Lordaeron is allied with the blood elves that are fighting the Forsaken, when the Night Elves have left the Alliance)
is not needed the "horde" or "alliance" mark to kill someone, you just need to WANT it

(on my server actually there is the free for all PVP, you can kill every player of every faction everywhere, unless are in your group)

[SCONE]

Thanks for the interesting comments guys, I'm considering inspecting a few more textures, the current ones I've used are Elwynn.

@Sirfranc; Well that's the beauty of Roleplaying servers, each one's bound to be different, some would like it if it was FFA PvP, others would despise it due to the extensive windows of opportunity to troll and gang-gank. The trees were replaced because even though the predacessors weren't plagued, they were damn ugly and thanks for the rep and feedback it's very much appreciated

It looks nice, but there's no dirt on the grass m8. and ne1 can spawn an npc on their emu. fences are reli off putting aswell. i know u havn't bothered with noggit coz uv left the fences till last (they're the hardest part i know, i hated dealing with them when i did this kind of stuff) but if u wna produce a nice genuine looking andorhal ur gona need to put more effort into it than MWCS. change buildings within the adts 1 by 1 and move them accordingly. mebe even change the terrain a bit. add ur own addition etc. so far i think uv done an alright job tho.

[SCONE]

Thanks, but the thing is I'm not going to release this, It's a show off, that's possibly used on a private server which means, whether or not "People can place their own stuff" is irrelevant, it's moulded in the way we see Andorhal. It's my first edit. And Noggit wasn't even used because it wont work on my computer. Fences are on the list to be deleted, and hopefully the terrain will be smoothed and detailed alittle more using either Noggit (If it gets working) or Yiasedit. But thanks for the feedback

[~sInX]

yeah i know its moulded in the way we see andorhal and im telling u how to mould it better. and i never said nething about people placing their own stuff. i sed it wud increase originality and perhaps would help you to build your ideal andorhal the way you would like it if the option of adding m2s and wmos was available. u dont need to defend urself against constructive criticism m8. i alredy told u i think u did a gd job. and nps, im happy 2 give ma point of view if it helps

[lockonny]

Those screens look very nice. I'm looking forward to see more of it.

[SCONE]

Oh sorry if it came across defensive, I thought you were missing the point but you weren't but yeah thanks for the input, it's our first project so it tends to be alittle mucky, and we're stuck for ideas on what to put in the empty space near the inn.

Thanks for the commet Lockonny!
