Mod-Project: Abandoned Places 2

[msyblade]

Aaaannnnd, here is your food spell.

SpoilerShow

Code: Select all

defineSpell{
   name = "feast",
   uiName = "Feast",
   skill = "spellcraft",
   level = 6,
   runes = "EF",
   manaCost = 15,
   onCast = function(caster, x, y, direction, skill)
    setMouseItem(spawn("snail_slice"))
   end
}

Runes 5 and 6, although you can change that. (As well as the skill requirement and casting cost.) If you are afraid of balance issues, I guess you could make it cost 100 energy or something?

The Grimrock-Com is so great, you all make me really happy.
I think I will stay here for a while. I am so happy that I found a place like that, Its like a Treasure Room of some sort, full of unforgotten Games and People.

Thank you for the code msyblade, it looks very good, and is still a good level, not to low and not to high. It is just like in the original game it was.

Created some custom furniture for the Temple of AP2.






It is also my ode to the great Ultima Games and to Lord British

[Pandafox]

yeah, good job !
if I can say something : maybe it should be better to make the texture a little less "clean"... You should try to add a "dirty" texture on it with soft alpha...

a quick exemple of what I mean :

[Wanderer]

Ok, i actually play around with effects on the texture to make it little bit more decent and not so gloomy. But I have also to consider not making it to withered, since the temple grounds of AP2 (the upper level at last) shouldnt look to withered at all. Thisfor I also used the "Hightemple" Tileset and not the Dark-Temple i.e.

But you are right the gobelin should not look to strange in middle of the rest of the graphics.

However, there exist a carpet version of the Texture too, but this time without the Ankh and with a different surface structure of a carpet of course, and tihis time it is little darker...



I needed this two furnitures to design a very special room in the Temple ( )

nice carpets there !

[Wanderer]

@Drakkan: thx for the nice words.

Now thanks to the wonderful Video-Tutorial of "Skuggasveinn" I have now managed to ged rid of one of my main-issues in completing the Temple of AP2:

I Know the model is not totally complete right now, but it works for now so like it is intendent to work:

The "Dying Master" Quest and what I needed is almost done:


Yes I know, I still have to change little things (like make the beard like a beard and not tentacles )
But well, actually the quest works and shows what it should


And even the part of after solving the quest, works better than I expected



I know, i am really at the very beginning with changing things to meet my needings (and sorry for my bad english sometimes I even dont understand myself what I just said, but I am not born in Britain and nor in America, Its only my school english, but I work on this every day, I promise )

Edit: The next step is to add some Face and more hairylike texture for the beard, the Robe is almost OK I think.
