    Default Campaign map

    This thread is for discussions about the campaign map.

    Here are some samples of the achievements so far:
    ======================================
    Example of campaign map - Scandinavia in winter time:


    Known issues:
    - provinces, cities, rivers, heights etc. aren't ready yet, this is just a very early alpha version of the map
    - mini map - not all of the map is displayed on the minimap. This is being solved ATM.

    I'm glad you liked the loading screens. I'll post some more soon. The first one above is made from a photo near where the battle of Hastings was fought. The second one is also made from a photo, but it's more heavily edited. The village was originally some 19th century village or so, so I had to remove windows and too advanced chimneys and change shape of the roofs in order to give it a dark age look. The third one is also made from a photo taken during Scandinavian winter...

    I'll post one loading screen from where Kaupang was located, and another one with the Icelandic coast soon, unless the pictures I've got turn out to not be suited for becoming loading screens.

    Also, I've gotten far with the map_ground_types.tga which I might post by the end of this week. It'll, apart from showing the ground types, also show the final plan for where coastlines will be, which lakes and islands are included, and how large the map will be. I think it'll go much faster to fix the heights and climates maps, and then only the regions and features maps are needed before I can start testing the maps. Unfortunately there have been many delays due to replanning of provinces and settlements over and over again. This time I'm making the terrain first and will prepare a map for provinces and cities so I can quickly fill them in when I find out which of them will be included.

    Hi just thinking about the loading screens... I think they're great the ones over, and this is just an idea... what about take some in-game screenshots and make them like paintings in dark colors...? Gives some dark age, world on fire-feeling I think. Okay this is just a thought, here is some quick example I made to illustrate:

    I was thinking about doing something with in-game shots too, but at that time I didn't have any skinned units for the mod ready. Your picture looks good, but I don't think we should have that much fire, and rather stick to a realistic-looking color scale, for the sky. A real sky at sunset looks red enough IMO.

    For loading screens in general I think a mix of calm natural views and battle pictures would be good for loading screens. Also, for the battle pictures I think it would be cool if we used a more complex terrain and arrange the exact battle scene we want in a custom battle or in multiplayer with each other to get the pictures we want.

    I agree, the example was really just to illustrate what i meant, it was not as a candidate. I think in-game screens will look great when more units arrive (I can see it; hordes of spear in the background, dust, fire, death) heh

    If integrated with some photographs (towns, backgrounds, fire) and some artistic filters in photoshop it would really be something. I think it should be dark, but if not, at least have some consistency in the colors (like vanilla rome with red loading screens, a little boring with one color though..).

    I mean a bearly edited in-game screenshot is still just a screen-shot. should be something more. (I think this is actually very important, it sets the mood for the whole experience. agree?)

    Yes, I agree to that. Unfortunately I felt restricted to make it look more like a painting because the graphics you get on the campaign map and the battle field rendering doesn't look that dark either. I don't know what others think but I'd go for a combination of say 5 edited battle scenes screenshots and around 10 nature pictures from Nordic winter landscapes. The battle screenshots could be really cool if we arranged them well.

    Here are some suggestions for new loading screens ideas (some are nature views, others are battle scenes):

    1. a small army on a hill in the foreground, looking down on a huge army below in the background.
    2. half-way through a chargefrom the best knights into a flank of the enemy
    3. some hand-to-hand combat with all units mixed up with each other
    4. a burning village with viking raiders running around with torches and swords (this one will probably have to be a combination of own images and in-game screenshots - perhaps it's too complicated)
    5. a naked, snow-covered field, with dead bodies lying in the foreground, and a battle scene far in the background
    6. icelandic southern coast
    7. a norwegian fiord seen from the sea or perhaps from an inland mountain
    8. a forest of thin trees edited so it's looks really eerie
    9. a Rus siege of Constantinople
    10. a Viking siege of Paris

    I don't know, it might be too complex to add it. Otherwise we could always add it in version 2, or at least have a look at it and post here in our forums instructions for how to adapt that mod to our mod for those who are interested.

    Would like to have more teammembers discussing this. I don't feel like white/gray winter landscapes gives the right mood, like the one with the bird (specie: dompap in norwegian?), i think it should either be open and very nice landscapes, something with a specific culture, or something with war (mainly this). I think your suggestions is very good though!!

    This would be great!

    I think screenshots/parts of screenshots should be used all pictures containing troops and military for consistency. We could get really great shots with the "free zoom"-mod (we can zoom out as far as we want + we can get the frog-perspective). With some artistic filters it could easely be integrated with other images, as for instance a burning village. As for colours I agree they should not be as dark as my example, but they should have a tendency to be dominated by one or two neutral colours (I think a little dark-gray-blue would do).

    I think it could be implemented, could at worst get help from the mod-developer. Anyway, I wonder about your thoughts on how it would affect gameplay. I think:
    - More realistic distances when armies are marching. A country could be taken in one year, or lost in one year.
    - Longer time to constructing buildings; maybe this would be negative, because getting new units and such would take twice as it would if not..

    Of course it might me better with 2 turns a year, this is only to show that there's an option.

    Ok, no dompap then :). I like the village though, it looked good even when resized to cover the entire screen. R:TW uses 1024*768 resolution for the loading screens so some screens I made and thought looked good became ugly when covering the entire screen. I think we could remove the battle of Hastings site image too, and only keep the village. It's the only shot I was completely satisfied with.

    LegioXXX, have you looked in to the user-interface files? Alot of things there have to be canged to get rid of the Roman/greek styles.

    If your working on it, I'll leave it alone, if not, i think i have a look at it..

    You mean fonts and things such as team number being I, II, III, IV, V etc.? I haven't done any work on it yet, I've been too busy with the campaign map, researching and doing test graphics for faction symbols etc.

    Aha ok, those need to be fixed too, yes. The faction symbols part of them I'll fix at the same time I fix the faction symbols for the menu, but if you like you can change the other images. Otherwise I can do that after I've completed the campaign map terrain.

    Some general dark age theme, I think. Also more in blue-grey-silver color scale rather than the vanilla R:TW red-yellow-gold one.

    Just an idea, but if we wanted we could get the family pictures from M:TW and Viking invasion.

    Is it legal to use the family pics from M:TW and VI just like that? If yes, it'd save a lot of work to use them. Otherwise, I think we could always make some own pics based on paintings and sculptures of rulers and similar, as well as archaelogical material such as helmets etc. to make them.

    I think we should use them if possible. Don't know about the legal issues though, but I would guess we could use them.

    Are you sure the faction colours to for instance saxon shall be white and blue? On the battle map, if they're associated with the britons. Or maybe it can be changed?

    Faction colors should be possible to change, but I've so far gotten errors when changing the colors. Anyway factions can only be changed to another faction within the same group above. For saxons the possibilities are therefore: gauls, germans, britons, dacia, scythia and spain

    On the legal issue about using the Family portraits, maybe one of us could write an e-mail to CA and ask them for permission.

    Yeah, but then I suggest we do it when the mod is in a more finished state, perhaps when we have around 30 skins and the entire campaign map ready. Otherwise they might just not bother giving us permission, I think.
