Quote from: Drunken Chinchilla on June 19, 2007, 05:26:22 AMFor some reason im instantly drawn to that drainpipe/watershoot on the house.
Gee, I hadn't noticed that (yet)! Thx for pointing it out! ;)
I agree, it's very reminiscent of the  location in KQ VI.

Yup.  Our artists first used the KQVI version as a reference, then sketched, painted, modelled and textured it accordingly.

1. Lord Azure is telling to Lady Ariel: "Dear Ariel! I can't cover my admiration, you are so beautiful! Hey, stop! What is the black spot on your white dress? Is it Graham's feet icon? How the player dare put it on you, my Angel?"

2. Graham is in the room of Zodiac signs. So he should light the candles in the proper order, starting, for example, from the sign of the Lady shown on the portrait. The correct Graham's actions should reveal some hidden object and/or summon the soul of the woman in the center of the circle. Incorrect actions should extinguish the candles.

3. Rosella's auto-biography may be called as "Perils of Princeless Bride" (most common name representing her previous adventures, i guess).

You guys suck. You got hardcore fans so excited about this game and then just STOPPED. You call yourselves artists? You're quitters and should be ashamed. "It's difficult" , "I have family members" , "I stubbed my toe so I couldnt possibly work".

If you wanted it to work, you would make it work. Every one of you who isnt doing everything in your power to get this game out there should be ashamed to call themselves an artist and do not deserve the title of adventurer.

graham is rolling over in his grave. goodnight.

We haven't stopped anything. We are working hard on the game. To give you an illustration of this, I have another window open right now where I'm working on stuff for the game. Not for PR, my regular role on the team, but the game itself. We are dedicated, and we are doing everything possible to get this game released to you, to the point where people like myself (not a programmer or artist) are being brought in to the production side do whatever we can to help expedite this.
Once the votes are read, the decision is final. The person voted out will be asked to leave the Tribal Council area immediately. I'll read the votes...

So the demo was released for part 1 about a year ago, am i safe to say that when the game is released it will be as one whole game? I mean, if you are still going to give it to us in parts, this will take years and years to complete.

Regarding a couple of comments:

Textures and Lighting - To answer scorpion007's comments:  We are incorporating some dynamic lighting into the game.  In fact, while we haven't shone it to you all yet, we have started working on it in-engine.  While most of the backgrounds will have baked shadows (with a few dynamic lights for effects), we are working on having dynamic lighting on the characters in the game.  This will greatly enhance the look of the game.  The shots you've seen thus far have NOT implemented this.  Not to mention the use of in-engine volumetric lighting and particle effects, animated water and skies.

Work on the game:  Pissed - I totally understand your frustration.  We have not stopped work on the game.  Most of us work on it every day.  I even work on it from my day job on my lunch break.  We ran into a number of issues with the engine and have been working those out.  Also, we are working on cleaning up a lot of the artwork and effects.  We have all these separate elements, now we're trying to get them all combined and working in the engine.  I have been working with this team since 2002 and have invested way too much blood, sweat and tears to not see this through to completion.  Yes, it is taking forever, but it IS coming :).

Oh really?

I second that. Unless nothing has been done for the past seven months or the project is dead, I think now is the time to show something to the public . . .

One of the reasons people believe the/a project is dead, is the fact that nothing is been shown for a very long time. Now it's for this team impossible to show something every week but once or twice per three to six months must be achievable and gives a heartbeat to the community other then posts like "we're still here", which people will wimple away as lies . . .
It seems totally incredible to me now that everyone spent that evening as though it were just like any other. From the railway station came the sound of shunting trains, ringing and rumbling, softened almost into melody by the distance ...

We released a screenshot about a month ago that was a prize from one of the forum contests. Also, the Picture/Caption contest has just ended and the winners will be receiving a prize. So work is being done. :)

That's all nice and such but that's not a public image, only available to a handfull of selected people and the majority of us can't really be bothered to enter one of those "competitions" so they will be left empty handed and if left empty handed, they will lose interest if they haven't done so already . . .

It would really do some good to the team if they were to release something every once in a while, without conditions, without restrictions to let people see anything without having to enter a competition just to see that the game is still alive . . .
