[Showoff][Areachange] YASR, Yet Another Stromgarde Rebuilt

[sirfranc]

Hi all! i have stopped working for now on the new areas, since i have to change some old areas for my RPG server, actually the players are besieging Stromgarde, now contested between two guilds
Nonetheless, the Stormwind army is going to help Prince Galen Trollbane to take back and rebuild Stromgarde, to restore the city to its former glory and gain a powerfull point for Lordaeron wars

Since during those sieges almost every building is being burned down, the city will be totally rebuilt

The first phase will be a long questline for the players, they have to defend the supply caravans from Stormwind to Stromgarde, through both sea and land

After the first phase the rebuild works will start, and i'm just going to spawn planks, tents and building materials all around

The second phase is to gain the gold and the manpower to go on with the building, and at the end of that phase stromgarde will look like that:
[Spoiler][/spoiler]
(the weird looking of the towers is a noggit error xD)

The third phase is focused on the increase of the economic conditions of the newbuilt city, by time merchants and stores will appear in the city, new banner, streetlams, benchs, statues, and other stuff will be placed as the economy increases

The fourth phase is the consolidation of the military force of the city, the managing of the sourroundings and the scourge attacks to the newborn city

The last phase will be the ultimate work, the building of the new Harbor, where now lies the cave that connects the city to the coast, will be built a new harbor, with brand new trade routes with southshore

The players who will complete all the quest lines will be rewarded as "Stromgarde Champions" and will have decisional power on further developing of the New Arathor Empire

except for the lore, i want feedbacks on the 2nd phase patch, and some advice on the harbor (i can't guess by now some .wmos that will be of use..)

In Game Screens (don't worry about the blood elf banners, that zone WITHOUT PATCH is now of the horde)
[spoiler]

General overview of the whole new Walls and the bridge to the keep, the whole city has been fortified!

the Glory Row, roads have been cleaned, polished and restored! now the city is becoming a glorious place

The backgate to the harbor, with the expansion on the norhern coasts of Lordaeron is better to have the control of the seas

The objects are disappearing becuse new noggit (rev104) deletes or not save the whole MCRF / Collision on the objects.

oddly enough, the problem is only with the OLD and UNTOUCHED .m2...
how i can fix that?

EDIT: i have as well problems with the terrain lighting, edited .adts are now without any light/reflection (and are really darker) i will feature with screens as soon as possible (tomorrow then)

in the meanwhile i just fixed some terrain issues (that pointless spiky terrain of blizzard >.<) and i'm fixing, with some luck, the walls (some don't collide perfectly, leaving a tiny space near the towers :S)

[Sardemox]

btw i have done some updates on the patch

-Dried duskwood trees changed into aerie peaks trees (properly scaled)
-Corrected some terrain bugs and terrain unlitting (darker terrain)
-Corrected some little errors in the outer walls (still have to fix some tough)
-Added a platform outside the city gate with a ballista
-Now people without the patch should be seen correctly (and won't see people with the patch flying)

more screens soon

To do list:

-Add more doodads
-Create shops
-Create new NPC's
-Create new doodads (scaled doors for the houses, etc)

[sirfranc]

Update, corrected many bugs and uploaded new images

bugs corrected:
*terrain lit now works properly
*city walls now are good looking and corrected
*added the statue of Lothar in the Heroes Square

To do:
set custom area IDs

this is the concept of the area IDs/NPc/Services

Only one thing to do, change the lamppost to the Stormwind or Stratholme lamp post. ^^

But it's AWESOME! Release it!
