If you like this map, I rescript it (cause many scripts are stupid and not goot) and add a few more details (and some of the hobbithouses which are under the earth )

A question that's been on my mind since the beginning of this thread, and what no one else seems to have asked yet, when the new movie-based campaign is released. Is it going to replace EA's camaign? I'm sure the current working campaign will be much more enjoyable now that its had its S.E.E. overhaul. So is it possible to possible ADD the new version of the campaign to the already existing one instead of replacing it?

[Nazgûl]

We will replace the campaign totally...

@Mercyy: I love the screens... You know, we ARE looking for Mappers to join our team. Let me know if you're interested You seem to be made of the right stuff...

[Nazgûl]

Hehe np =)
Well I could ask you again when we get to the Campaign later this winter or spring

[Mercyy]

ok
Until then this Map should be finished
Would be great to map a few maps for this great mod

[Mercyy]

Finally I managed to start BfmE II
the hobbits before they began their long journey:

I have another map, I would script, if you want it:
I think everyone will know which map it is, when you've seen the movie
Link1

Link 2

there are no shrubs yet, but I will add some
If you want to have this two maps just say yes and I will script them/map the missing things

[The Best Guest]

Hey naz I have had some interest and someone should be dropping you a PM so

[Nazgûl]

Interesting =)

And Mercy: those screens look nice When we get to the Campaign, I'd be honoured to have your mapping help =)

[witchkingshour]

I can't wait to see what can be done to the campaign. I am hoping that we can have the large battles be more fun as well as if we will include skirmish missions in between, we can make it to have a really interesting plot to take over them lands.

Like for instance, I would like it to see that evil has way more numbers than good, like it was in the movies. But I'm sure a lot of you have great ideas.

[Mercyy]

I have two news about my campaign levels:
the first:
both maps are gone... my PC crashed down and everything was deleted :(
So I must say sorry, I can't give you my maps, cause I have made no backups -,-
The other news is that I have startetd today to map the shiremap again

Edited by Mercyy, 11 November 2007 - 12:54 PM.

[Nazgûl]

Oooh noooo, that's the worst thing that could happen... I'm really sorry :(

But... still nice to see you back in action already, hehe
You know, with that map and that party I could do multiple skins for Hobbit Women and for the 10 skins of the Hobbit Men that we already have we could hide the sticks in code so they look more relaxed =)

Keep up the nice work

[Mercyy]

thx naz

this party is just the beginning, before you can play the hobbits
But more Hobbit skinns wood be very nice
Look at the Objects I've used in this map. You see all of them but 70 on the screens.
Doesn't believe me?
The platform on that Bilbo stands are more than 10 Barricades and 9 tables
The tent uses 400-500 Objects
look at the sides of the tent and you will see, where I used so many objects (this wooden wall^^)

[Mercyy]

After a very busy week I continued mapping the Shire.
I like this map more and more

Green Dragon:(larger than the normal Green Dragon)


Gandalf meets Saruman and talks about the Ring





The nine have left Minas Morgul...





We're still in the Shire. What can happen to us here?



I forgot to add the new camangles, so it's not that fascinating. (Minas Morgul has another sky than Isengard and the Shire has another sky again^^) (everything in the same map )

[Nazgûl]

Cool, this will come in handy for the campaign indeed...

Any chance of a bridge like this one, in front of it?

[Mercyy]

give me a few days, then I put this bridge in the map(tomorrow test in english and after that one day free. I try to add this bridge then.

[Nazgûl]

Awesome I beleive I once saw a bride that looked kinda like that one, that should fit pretty good in there. I just love that scene in the movie

[zachdaddy_3000]

You know what I think would a very awesome first mission? The prologue of the movies! Seriously, as soon as Sul gets the new Noldor Warriors finished, we could have a near all out battle near the slopes of mount doom with the Noldor and Elrond, and make a little skin for Isildur and have him use a "sauron's bane" power like aragorn is supposed to be having soon and after he is defeated you get the shockwave (maybe make it a tad less powerful of a blast, I always sort of thought it was more of a knockback then a damaging shockwave anyways). Just roll that around your head for a little bit. You could even use the audio from the opening video clip.
