After going through the scene props offered, i realize that we need to make scene props for the special places in Alegasia,
I thought we could have something like this in the elven cities:

(did it in like 5 minutes)
(possibly as a tower with this extension)

Something similar to fantasy mod (if you've seen in) but more advanced
Trees connected by bridges and stuff for elves.
Dwarves need stone halls, which is easier, because there is more already ingame that we can use
Varden/empire can use the ingame stuff.
Basically, post ideas/pictures of stuff we need for that. I'll work on them for now until we can get more modelers
Here is some idea's on design and such.

Telendril or whatever hall (maybe)

Art from star wars wookies, but still might prove useful (not much elven city concept art out there)

Lothlorien concept art
The one thing to remember is that the elves shaped the trees into homes. So there shouldn't be much metal/unnatural materials.
So, we need a modeller (Baron?) on the scene props. MISHO is going to scene for us, but he needs scene props for it.
Oh i can make scene props you teach me how to implement them and once we have all them assembled we can start.. till then i can make plans :D
Cheers
That's great :D I've never made scene props myself, so I can't help on the implementing...
you've to add them in module_scene_props.py
example:
Quote from: "code"("door_b",0,"door_b","bo_door_a", []),
oh, that doesnt seem hard :D just which one is the mesh? you know what just tell me is there some sort of instructions in the scene_props.py?
there are instructions ;)
Download Fantasy mod for 0.808. You will not believe the number of elf props which would be perfect fro this. AFAIK the stuff is now basically open source since no FM team are active, just credit fantasy mod.

True I'm looking at that right now, and also,
Sibylla has agreed to come on to the team to work on modeling.
Welcome Sibylla
Check out what i've got, based on Lothlorien

I figure there will be a big one of these for the "Castle"
EDIT: Texturized
(http://i562.photobucket.com/albums/ss69/RedBaron_SD/Treehouse_jpg.jpg)
Not that good at texturizing :flashy:
it looks quite nice(and have you ever seen my textures? they're :barf: )
nice, just you do need some more details on the tree :D
if you can find some pictures of some elven houses or anything,post them somewere cause i think i can make buildings very fast,they are quite easy 2 make,just need imagination(i dont have no more i just lost it all)

I thought we could have something like this for a secret elven tunnel into Uru'baen

I'm gonna make the tunnel tree & the sword, as for the bridge I don't know do you guys want the trees to be connected or we just let the player to climb the stairs each time he want to go up ??? :)
Connected for certain. I refuse to spend that quantitiy of my precious time climbing stairs to get to some damn pointy ears. Particularly considering I don't have the option of burning the tree down and bringing them down to ground level. In a flaming heap.

I agree with you.
hehe ok then I'll just make seperate bridges & it'll be up to Misho to match them with the trees.

Hahhahaha...
Nice jubal.
You get a internet cookie.
Hah, I vote for burning 'em!
Maybe there can be bridges for testing only :D to make it easier.
Maybe long branches as bridges :)
sibylla has made bridges
surely the stairs were inside the trees :ermm:
Quote from: "Evil2828"surely the stairs were inside the trees :ermm:
Some may of been. Some may not. 'Tis no problem. Anyway if they hollowed out the trees to put stairs in the trees would've died. The elves probably wouldn't do that. Unless they were shaped with magic. I'm not sure how that is done so i've no idea if the elves could've done it.
Yeah, they were all shaped with magic. Eragon lived in a hollowed out tree during his stay with the elves. And it explained it then.
