Emerald Dream Raid Setup

[AZO]

So I started spawning stuff for a raid concept I had.. this is where I am right now...

Its 3:50AM, so I'm just dropping off the video as is. I planned on editing the video, but just decided to go as-is due to time constraints.

RAID SETUP:
So far, its a 5 boss raid, with a 10 man setup for level 90s.

THE PLOT:
N'zoth has finally shown himself again in the Emerald Dream. Ysera, Malfuron Stormrage, and Cenarius, along with a few trusted arch druids have ventured into the emerald dream and torn a hole into the real realm to allow 10 heroes (you and your friends) access in to defeat N'zoth. Currently there is not much left of the emerald dream due to the quick and steady spread of the nightmare, and his corruption has taken over the larger parts of the raid dungeon.

You will notice as soon as you step into the dream that this battle has already been going for quite some time. Bodies litter the once beautiful lands, and N'zoth's influences are seen just about in every direction.

N'zoth has taken control of 3 of Ysera's Guardian bosses:

Protalus (Yellow Crystal Boss)



Azardus (Red Crystal Boss)



Juroguar (Blue Crystal Boss)



Ysera has asked you to free all of them from his grasp by defeating them. Each will have its own ability, and then a nightmare ability that was obviously granted by N'zoth.

The far left of the raid is the only area unaffected by the dream. Ysera has set up several dream crystals to keep the old god at bay. You will notice many of N'zoth's faceless minions have tried gaining access to that area, only to fall short of reaching the helpless druids and other wildlife still clinging to existence.

This part of the dream has long lost contact with Ysera and her forces, and has expected the worst. With that being said, they are hostile to everyone they see. Fearing that everyone has succumbed to the nightmare. The usualy friendly emerald colossus BuruGor must also be defeated and brought to his senses.

Once defeating all the other bosses, it is time to move onto N'zoth himself. Eventually at some % of hp, the 3 arch druids would take command of keeping the portal open, while malfuron, Ysera, and Cenarius help you and your slay N'zoth.

If I get some help on this (I'm not great at scripting, and have done no scripts so far for this project... I would like to go all out with this and make it fully opperational. I'm hoping to be able to slap this on a fully online server, because mine is just hamachi, and I know there are way better servers that this could go on.

Let me know what you guys think of the progress so far, and if you are interested in helping, or know/have a server that would want this to be implemented onto.

The rest of the emerald dream is still inaccessible. You will notice in the video I have placed green fog as a guideline to where the raid walls are located. Just past that fog is a ton of invisible walls. Also, currently on my server, I'm having a hard time getting creature's auras to stick without creating LUA scripts for them, and I haven't tried doing any of those yet, so I don't even know if it would work yet... I don't know. Sorry my showmanship in the video isn't better.

EDIT:
I'm really sorry about the video quality guys. I'll try to get a better version of the video up tomorrow.
It should not be this choppy. I think it's just the recording program I am using.

For now, I have included a slideshow to give you a better view:
Emerald Dream Private Server

EDIT:

Better Video as Promised!




LOOKING FOR SCRIPTERS!
Let me know if you are interested!

EDIT: 9/15/2011 -

Here are a few pics!

UPDATES-

[Deathbringer123]

Sweet It looks very good, and looks like its got great Potential!

[AZO]

Man, I'm surprised this didn't get more hits.

[Badcobra10]

It looks great. The idea is awesome too.

[AZO]

Thanks a lot man. I appreciate the feedback. Still updating it. When I get more, I'll post more.

[2dgreengiant]

didnt have time to watch the whole video yet but looks great

[Felix03658]

it is very good and useful! Thanks!

Thanks 2d. Means a lot coming from you. If you know anyone that might be interested in setting up a server like this, please let me know. I want to go 100% with this, scripting, questing, everything. Unfortunately I know the loot for right now is a problem, but there is still 435 item level gear in the game database we could use for filler... just doesnt look cool.

Are you going to release this?

[stoneharry]

BuruGor (The Emerald Colossus) and N'Zoth (The Old God) look sick. Custom models?

[cdmichaelb]

This looks amazing. O.O

[AZO]

BuruGor (The Emerald Colossus) and N'Zoth (The Old God) look sick. Custom models?

Nope, not custom models, I just stuck a few auras on them to make them unique. N'zoth has a shield aura, and a static electricity aura. His model is just Yogg Sauron's from Ulduar.

BuruGor's model is from Stonecore.

Glad you guys liked it! I'm trying to find a live private server where I can develop basically. As my private server is hamachi, I kind of want to get a server where I have full customization rights to, to be able to make these types of dungeons for a live player base. Or vice versa and have people join me, but I figured joining someone else would probably be the easiest.

[AngeloFranklin]

Looks cool! Good luck in your project, i wouldn't mind to join that server one of this days!

[EveronMightbane]

This is a really nice concept, I'd like to see it go all the way =)

worldmapinfo on Emerald Dream registers as it not being an instance, does it?
I've completely forgotten. But I'm pretty sure this zone type is like that of Azeroth and Outlands, since they intended for Emerald Dream to be a zone like Azeroth.



Edit: If you're interested, we've just started on a 3.3.5a arcemu server we're making. It'd be nice to have more than a 2 man army working on this. We both know what we're doing, and would be happy to give you free reign to set up things the way you see them necessary.
PM me if you're interested, and I'll send you the link to the website. Don't want to get my post deleted for advertising my own server.

Edit #2: There is no player base, since it's still in development, if that sways your decision then that's fully understandable.
