-v 0.42 updates
-Fixed something
-Changed spawn location to Violetmoor

*v 0.45 updates
-Added zombie ice skating arena !
*v 0.5 updates
-Added a new city that replaces the mountain city, Silverford!
-Silverford also comes with 3 new instances!
-Fixed a few stuff
Quick tutorial !
1)How does the market works?
2)Are you lost? Went somewhere and you dont know how to come back? Look at this map and locate yourself! You shoud try zooming in for easier tracking.
3)I think i have done all the instances/dungeons in this town, how can i be sure?!
Look here, and also you can see a walkthough there, but do that ONLY if you really cant pass that!
4)This is weird, i found an empty house ?!
Some houses are empty as im still thinking of how to use them, thanks for the patience!
5)What can i take and what not?
You can take stuff from any houses expect:markets,shops,armories and those types of trading houses. You cant take stuff from a quest chest for example until you finish it or some different chests but it all says on signs.
Keep in mind that this map is still in constuction and it containts just a small percentage of gameplay i actually want to make there, but it still can give you quite some time of fun :smile.gif: !
Well, the mountain has some obvious spheres to it, you may want to mess around and make it a little less spherey. Also, take advantage of the secret 'web' block. Pl0x.
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
Things I wish I could do: Undo everything I ever did on the internet before the year... I dunno... 2013
-Added 1 new hard instance! (Lava jumping is the first part of whole 4 parts of instance!)
-More fast train tracks
-Spawn point in multiplayer is bugged and changed so i will add a town there (expand knockbay actually) and make ruleboard and tips like in the actual spawn place!
Things i need help about!
Im out of ideas for instances/dungeons... I can make em easily (only if it doesnt include some high redstone knowledge) so if you have any please tell me :smile.gif:
One more thing i need help at !
I was thinking about adding a storyline! It should go like this and while you explore the world or do instances you find various clues!
Main quest (Storyline) - Part one
You have found yourself deseted, your ship wrecked but you cant remember who you are or what are you doing here!
You are left alone in a world you dont even know of its existance. It was a long jurney you had there and now you urge to survive and search the world to find clues about your roots and get back home. To be even harder for you clues are thrown all around this dangerous but beatuful and misterious world!
Main quest (Storyline) - Part two
It seams that someone is behind all this as there are puzzles and mysteries all round, maybe he wants to test you?
Main quest (Storyline) - Part three
The document is totally ruined and unfortunatly you cant read it properly but one world, it says "bundai". Maybe you should go there!
The next ones should be about finding about yourself and how you got there.. I have some ideas but they are not polished yet.. In few words the continue of the story would be like: you found out who done this to you but it wasnt because he wanted to hurt you but to test you for the place of the throne! The world of xera needed a new king as the old one died without any children..
So you should become the king after completing a lot of main quests but the fun shouldnt stop there ! Even after your job is to defend your land from the dangers that are there!
And yes oblivion the shiv isles inspired me a bit :biggrin.gif:
Ended up with just 6 slimeballs and a house in dragonmarsh.
Im working on a main storyline and more buyable houses! Also making slimeballs be able to exange for something..
1) Stairway to Heaven:
It suppoused to be hard, but only in the beginning, later it gets much easier and plus youve got 3 help blocks! I succeded to do it in 30 minutes or so.. Yeap its hard :smile.gif:
2) That one place where zombies attack you while you get stuff: Holy sheet, they backed me into a corner and I died. Only time I died :sad.gif:
Im gonna try to find out a solution how to fight them early.. As it is really easy when you fight them immediatly as they spawn but the entrance is really hard and almost impossible..
3) That tower: I ran in there during day, no mobs at all and the treasure was mine muahah.
Well not much into the new vesion here, but you can pray i do something with the egyptian theme town im willing to make.. But i dont want to copy one awesome thing.. i wanna make something on my own.. which will.. be hard xD
Today in a about 7-9 hours i will post an update(v0.4) in which there is a new town "Kharga oasis" !
It has 3 instances, two are deadly while the last one is a fun only instance!
You can enter this ancient town from Violetmoor with a fast train.
