Azura Skyy Posted August 5, 2014 Posted August 5, 2014 (edited) Ithavoll 'Splendour Plain' - Field of Deeds Ithavoll, regarded as the 'Meeting place of the Gods'in the first poem of the Poetic Edda. Being that Ragnarok is based on Norse Mythology, I've taken to a lot of the locations,themes, and events discussed in the poems. Ithavoll was supposedly a flat land home to great temples for the Gods. It is suggested that few Gods ever saw Ithavoll twice (having endured many casualties during the events of Ragnarok). Thanks in advance, ~Azura Skyy Edited August 5, 2014 by AzuraSkyy 1 Quote
Pneuma Posted August 5, 2014 Posted August 5, 2014 Very nice map. How long did it take from start to finish? Quote
Azura Skyy Posted August 5, 2014 Author Posted August 5, 2014 Very nice map. How long did it take from start to finish? Thank you! Your question is difficult to answer. It seems I complete my maps in stages. The whole process probably took 8hours? Really hard to gauge and I think it might be demotivating to actually time myself and see the amount of time I could poor into something that might go unrecognized. Not every map is a winner. Some don't get a showcase, and some never get beyond BrowEdit. Stage 1: Texture/Terrain (2hours) Stage 2: Walls (1hour) Stage 3: Objects (3+ hours) Stage 4: Lights+Gats (2 hours) Quote

Stage 1: Texture/Terrain (2hours) Stage 2: Walls (1hour) Stage 3: Objects (3+ hours) Stage 4: Lights+Gats (2 hours) A suggestion if you ever wanna add it to your map:(based on the screenshots) Try to add some realistic edges to the map instead of a square box x3 You should totally make a video for it :3(Ingame footage or browedit) Quote
Chemical Crush Posted August 5, 2014 Posted August 5, 2014 Pneuma where do you see a square box? Just curious. Quote
Fanoe Posted August 5, 2014 Posted August 5, 2014 That is a pretty cool map, especially for a story-based event. Great job ! And I +1 ChemicalCrush's question. I don't see any square box. Quote

Olrox Posted August 5, 2014 Posted August 5, 2014 Thats because all maps are like that xD but some people add mountains or something to avoid to add a flat edge at the borders The map is good, although I have to give a hint to everyone: always show in game SS, not browedit. Lights in browedit are nice but they are totally different than RO real light (mostly the global light) Quote

Azura Skyy Posted August 5, 2014 Author Posted August 5, 2014 (edited) Will add in-game screenshots when possible Olrox.

The raised terrain on the outside edges should prevent players from seeing beyond what appears as water in BrowEdit. This was only ever even an issue because I had to copy the map due to an issue at one point, and because of how the copy function works, the map I transferred it to had to be bigger. ~Azura Skyy Edited August 5, 2014 by AzuraSkyy Quote

Azura Skyy Posted August 5, 2014 Author Posted August 5, 2014 Added an in-game screenshot. ~Azura Skyy Quote
