[Preview] Development

[Alequia]

Thank you MoD !
I don't speak English very well, but I can say that Developpement will probably never be released by me or by anyone from Ridpef, because we share MoD's reasons.
However, MoD does whatever he wants, of course.

Also, I will share some of my Developpement screens :

Would you like to know what happened to the programmers and designer Island ?

Really enjoying this thread. +rep for some great images.

[BaddyMcBad]

Really makes me sad to not be able to explore it. Especially since I was only able to discover the .bmp images and then assembling them all into one giant image.

Here's to hoping that some form of this gets released, even if it's not readily useable - I'm sure that there's enough people here that would finagle a way to get it working, somehow.

[Justdancess]

Is it in Wotlk beta client?

Is it in Wotlk beta client?

From what I understand it was only available for an extremely short period of time. Presumably during an alpha or beta.
Just makes me sad I wasn't able to grab it because this is easily the greatest thing about WoW.

If I remember correctly, it was in one of the PTR builds early on during WoTLK, and I've been trying to find (nay, scraping together as much info as possible) where blizz might have their PTR builds stored, or where the PTR builds might be available (patches, even) for download. I'm unsure of what time period the files made it into the game, but my guess would have to be at a time when no one was anticipating them - probably around the time of the PTR builds of Ulduar, or ICC. There doesn't seem to be much information about the specifics. If you search through all 5 pages of posts in this thread, you may find some more info that I've forgotten.

If you go rooting around in the original forum where the screenshots are from, there's a question for a hypothetical release of the development maps, and everyone there seems to agree that it would make perfect sense to release the development map to the public. Time will tell.

Seriously, i hate people who keep back this unbelieveable nice and mysterious map, so here:


http://addonbusters.bplaced.net/development.zip

The easiest way to use it:

Make a private server, 3.3.5 for example. Put the world folder into a mpq file and rename it to patch-4.mpq. Put this folder in your Data folder and use following codes:

.worldport 451 16304 -16175 41.3123
-Designer Island

and

.worldport 451 16304.2 16320.2 70
-Programmer Island


Have fun.

You're missing the point.
The designer and programmer islands are on this zone, but it's not what we want there. We want everything on this zone that's not the designer and programmer islands because it's totally knew and can be used in the future.

[Alisamix]

Well, there should be more than the 2 islands. They were just 2 examples.

You provided the .adt for the two isles, nothing more. Those .adt were the ones present before 3.0, when they were removed from the game.

I definitely appreciate you posting this, but do you have more of the development map?

[spoutnik]

No, he hasn't.
Only MoD and Alequia have the map.

[EddyEvil]

Bump, simply amazing! Hopefully it will get released some day.

[Justdancess]

any news?
