Greetings from Paradise

I´m very exited today, because I started to work for real on the island. I did a lot of testing yesterday, I started to search for a perfect little place to start shaping for real this time. After rebuilding a small beach region I was ready to fire the first textures on it. And after eight hours of painting and tainting now it looks better than I hoped !

I want to post a progress diary / making of this area tomorrow. But for this post now I just want to share some tropical beaches with you... :



I´m finally going to bed now.. probably dreaming of three headed monkeys ! Harr !

Gorgeous! All your screenshots and movies really are. I haven't seen anything else yet look quite like these. I really look forward to walking around one of your areas.

It would be wonderful actually if you were to release a little showcase prefab area at some point, just so we could satisfy our curiosity while we wait for the real thing. :) I sure would be one of the first to download it!

PS: Your custom grass looks amazing!

Dude, I'm speechless...

You've created such a lush & beautiful environment. So sweet! So awesome!

Hate to break it to you E.C. Patterson, but I'm not going to allow you to be the first to download it. I will :)

This area looks awesome. Like the texture you used for the cliff. I assume it to be a custom one of yours? Doesn't look familiar to me, but I could be wrong judging from this distance.

One of these days someone is going to plaster Uncle Sam an email to you or your blog. Something like this:

Followed by a "We Want You" below it.

Thanks a lot guys !! I´m really happy you like the shots ! It was a lot of testing and at some point late at night I wasn´t sure anymore if anything will work out like I have planned.

@e.c.patterson
I´m releasing the grass and some textures at some point in the future. And I will of course include an area to show how they are used at best.

@Josh
Every texture or grass I have used is custom made. I have even changed the leaves of the palms. Beacuse there are no such textures coming with NWN2 I started to do my own ones. Next to this, I am using very heigh light values mostly and for that I always have to optimize my textures for the current area and do a lot of tainting.

Can't wait! :)

Nicely done! I think I can see my PC laying on the beach soaking up that sun and taking a dip in the beautiful water. She will get lazy and all the bad guys will proceed with all their evil doings! "grins"

Fantastic work! I'm glad your out of "under construction, and into production!"

Looks awesome! By the way, what is my rogue, Trent, doing on your island? :D

The guy in your pics looks exactly like one of the companions in A Time to Die... nice to know he's got some leisure time before he comes to Red Larch! The Island pics are incredibly beautiful and I can't wait to play the mod when you are finished. :)

Thanks, my Lady !
Yeah, about Trent... I have asked Erik and Karena in the first place. But it seemed they are in to their own business by that time. Aren´t you aware what your characters are doing when you are not working in the toolset ?
Anyway... I will build a harbour next to give Trent a chance to travel back to Red Larch in time :)
