Underdark weird crystals
« on: February 19, 2016, 02:13:26 am »


               

Hi guys!


 


Recently I reach some free time to go back to work in some areas of an old unfinished module of mine... Underdark areas, most exactly.


 


I am very well provided of big weird mushrooms, but I need now big weird underdark crystals, transparent or translucid, not opaque. I am nearly sure that someone made something like that in recent years, but I cannot remember who or where... Any ideas?


 


Thanks!

Ben Harrison made an excellent batch of them if there's the ones you're thinking of

what that? You said you have enough mushrooms? hahahahahah. And I still have a whole other package to release '<img'>


 


Edit


 


Does anybody else totally crash the engine when you try to use Ben's crystals and module? I can view it in the toolset, but I can't close the toolset either without a crash.

I have the same issue. In addition I get an access violation error when selecting one of the crystals in the toolset, but can continue to work normally after clicking OK.

Asymmetric, nothing to add on the crystals, but I just had the say that your avatar is great.

Hiya!


 


Thanks, guys!


 


Mecheon: thank you very much for the link, I am going to check these crystals of Ben Harrison... But I hope there are no problems with the toolset!


 


MerricsDad: Hi man, how it`s going? Heheh, yes, is a fact that when building into the underdark you NEVER have enough weird humongous mushrooms! '<img'> I´m looking forward for you mushroom package! By the way, how is going with your Underdark tileset? any updates? I think that, even in this early stage, has so much potential in it.


 


By the way, the other day I was checking some videos in youtube about Sword Coast Legends. This game looks good (but I am a bit suspicious about newer editions of D&D since the abhorrent abomination that was the fourth edition), but the thing is that the Underdark áreas looks superb! And at last we can travel and look over the old city of the duergars, Grlackstugh. Cool.


 


Again, one never can have enough doses of  pretty Underdark! '<img'>

Nothing new at all on the underdark tileset. Too many papers, and too many teachers to correct. I keep getting marked down for having the right answer when the teacher's key is wrong. Trying hard to make sure the rest of the students get the right education, not just "do what I say" training. They may be my co-workers and contacts one day. It's important to me.


 


On Sword Coast Legends: I really like the looks. The gameplay could be better, and the toolset could be MUCH MUCH better, but it's a good start. I highly doubt they will continue it as planned, but each release they do, I will be grabbing ideas.

I was thinking that some columnar basalt wall-like placeables could also be useful for mixing up the physical appearance of the underdark. They're almost crystal-like, at any rate.

Thanks, but I just cut it out from this picture: Cherry Dragon by Alexandra Khitrova. There are few more fruit dragons in her gallery.

The "New" crystals crash my game with shadows on, but the rest are fine

Hmmm, just checked Ben Harrison`s crystals: they are very good, have variety and different sizes, but had some problems with shadows. Not only normal area shadows, but in game ones, like torches and stuff... Example: you bring a torch near a crystal and the game crashes.
