[DEVELOPER DISCUSSION] One Room Round Robin 2 (SPOILERS)

[Diarmuid]

Shall I wait for the dragonbreathe particle? I'm going to finish my room (I guess) tonight.

I think it's best if you send me the file as soon as possible even if the breath isn't finished, that way we'll be abe to move along!

[Neikun]

I was going to finish that after work today, but I ended up working a 12 hour shift instead of a 7 hour shift.

[Kuningas]

Just popping in to tell how amazing that dragon is. I am really getting excited for this!

[flatline]

In short: That dragon is awesome.
I'm almost done moving house and will resume work on my room in the coming week.

[Leki]

Well... I have some news:
1) I just sent beta version of my room to Diarmuid for performance and bug hunting test. I have only 2 tasks to do and they are almost done, so I will finish it asap and my room can be counted as finished.
2) I will publish my basic village set as source for you. Plugin is almost ready I have just some polishing to do. It took some time, because I redesigned file system, adapted models etc. There was a lot of work, to make it "plugin like" and I rearanged my room to use this plugin to test it if its usable - well it is.
3) I will publish 1.0 Human Warrior with propper sounds as well. He is a part of my room and it took some time as well to improve him (Diarmuid have still WH v0.9)

So it depends on potentional bugs, but room, village basics set and WH:Axe and Shield will be ready in two days I guess.

[Diarmuid]

That's fantastic Leki, thanks so much.

Update on the status:

- Boyflea's room is done and integrated.
- Leki's almost done as well.
- With Isaac's help, I've done a lot of optimizing, and frame rate is now really good.

What are we doing next?

We'll all work in parallel now, with me centralizing the process, that's the only way we can get this done before christmas. I'll merge the other rooms as they come along, please put all your stuff in a separate .lua imported from init to make merging easier, and name your things with a prefix if possible.

- The last 3 modders (flatline, Skuggs, Xanathar) have access to the latest version on DropBox, they can pick it up whenever they want to do their room.
- Isaac is slowly working on his room for a while will be ready just in before the deadline.
- Kseroshy's already working on it and submitting it in next week.
- Leki will polish his stuff.
- Meanwhile, I'll also fix all remaining issues with the main file, wrap up the central dungeon part and do some early balancing.

There will be 21 rooms + the prison intro, for a total of 22.

Deadline for all rooms in a "final" state: Monday November 4th.

Then we start testing and playthroughs in Novemeber for a release early December.

Go go go, yes we can.

[Drakkan]

good to know somebody is taking care of this project, good work !

I, for one, look forward to start testing!

Have you considered using github or other free repository hosting? That gives you greater flexibility - many folks can work at the same time.

Anyway, great to see progress with this. As for the dragon... I'm wondering what the AH's reaction is. Perhaps something like "oh crap! those guys got better monster in LoG1 than we'll have in LoG2! We'd better come up with something fancy real quick!"

I bet that's not the exact reason for the 'Oh Crap'.

* I don't doubt they will impress us all with their next installment.
