well actually i was taking it in a "friendly competition" way....at the end of it you guys could enter your map in with mine, aswell as any other Lord of the Rings maps that spring up between now and then as a map pack...

Dohnutt · Post by **Dohnutt** » Sun Sep 17, 2006 8:05 am

Meh, Legolas? He's everyone's favourite character. He's a show off

w00t! Go Faromir! (I know he's not at Helms Deep)

BTW, good luck on your LOTR maps, Ajay. I'll be looking forward to them. Seriously.

Psst, make Hobbiton!

I feel like a jerk. Sorry 'bout before. I kinda spazzed out at you.

Hehe, if Teancum were to release his Qui-Gon model you could have a Legolas, unfortunately that's not gonna happen

Yoyam and I were think of making a 'LOTR Picture Of The Week' topic, so that progress could be shown, but we never got sround to asking an admin. If any are browsing this topic, let us know.

I like the map pack idea Ajay maybe we can just combine all of his into one big LOTR mod once you guys put out some stuff.

BtW who alls on your map team? Im kinda curious as to what they're doing cuz im pretty sure we have a tonna stuff we can share and collaberate about.
In case theres any confusion our roster looks like this:

Yoyam: Lead Modeller
SlayerJ: Lead Mapper
Bac-talan: Sides master
n0bs: Modeller
Jabba: helping out on the side
Jangoisbaddest: Working on special abilities

I dont wanna insult Ajay or his mod team by saying his map doesnt exist but so far all weve heard from Ajay is talk. After all the bragging I want some names before I really belive this is happening.

OK so as to the interior of the Helms Deep Citadel, I am still in desperate need of a plan for it. Im no interior designer and this is becoming a major roadblock for me. So far ive got the top part thats on top of the pillars planned out but as for the bottom im totally clueless. Keep in mind, I need plans, not ideas. While the ideas are cool what I really need is for someone to draw up a floorplan for the interior to give me ideas. If you are interested in this map and have no modding abilities but want to help, this is your time to contribute. The pics of the interior are on the pages before this.

Dohnutt · Post by **Dohnutt** » Sun Sep 17, 2006 4:40 pm

Just so you know, this room takes place inside here:

Ok, so here's your basic throne room:

I'm pretty sure this is what I remember from the movie. You've got a throne, some tables, a royal rug, and some pillars.

i have no names other than me and Lord Bandu. he is making some new models for me at the moment, and retexturing...i will be lead mapper, and just so everything is clear, my map collection is centered around the Minas Tirith battle....map one will be the gate/courtyard, map two will be the inner city, and map three will be the battle of the pellenor fields. as far as sharing goes, there is little stuff to share....you guys are doing rohan/isengard, i am doing mordor/gondor....structure-wise my maps will be made with a lot of Naboo buildings, retextured to white stone, as is the gondor custom. now that being said, i hope people will take me a little more seriously, and i will also use this post as a shout out to any and all who wish to join my modding team for this one...

Slayer_Hunter_J · Post by **Slayer_Hunter_J** » Sun Sep 17, 2006 8:07 pm

Didn't Bandu quit from SWBFII modding? I guess I must be mistaken. I wish you luck on your mapping, it's very hard to get the details, especially for me. If/When you need any help, just ask and I'll try to assist you in your troubles.

Im sorry for having doubted you Ajay, now that weve established that you do have a map lets try to keep this thread about Helms Deep. I wish you luck on your map and I sincerely hope you stop posting here about it.

Adios y bien suerte.

Very nice! I know it'll be a while before it's done, but I still can't wait. Just wondering, did you see my post before. If not, then read the small print at the bottom of it.

I'd say we got off on the wrong foot... Or feet.

@yoyam - Did you see my throne room layout?

yoyam · Post by **yoyam** » Sun Sep 17, 2006 9:15 pm

Yea I did see it, it gave me some ideas but what I really want is an actual floorplan, like down to the last chair and everything. Ive got total modeller's-block when it comes to this huge interior. What ever i put into it, it just doesnt look right.
Its getting really annoying, like to the point where im thinking of just omitting the whole interior. Btw is was thinking of putting some stables under those pillars but seeing as how the throne is right next to it im thinking no :d Im gonna go watch the DVD again tonite so hopefully ill get some ideas from that. If anyone wants to make a totally detailed floorplan theres a huge chance ill use it in the map

@ Aussie_Irishman:
Have fun making Nazgul mounts and Oliphants - any inaccuracies will be noticed !
And it will be so incredibly funny to get the 4 units together in order to use a catapult/trebuchet, because the movie showed it like this. AND even Grond. Man, this is going to be the best map available at it's time.

Aussie_Irishman · Post by **Aussie_Irishman** » Mon Sep 18, 2006 12:44 am

lol @ Pulch!

you have no idea what designs im planning mate, do NOT attempt to question my map, or my accuracy, when your workin on a map that has no real consistancy to it anyway, got it?

AJay

Protector_Pulch · Post by **Protector_Pulch** » Mon Sep 18, 2006 12:49 am

My map is as accurate as possible, because it's a planet I created. Everything is the way it should be.
Anyway, I have the right to question your map. That's everyone's right. But it would be better if we stopped our discussion right here. Mods will get angry if not. [END OF DISCUSSION]

Then dont be a hypocrite and question Pulch's or our map, got it?

No?

I didnt think so.

Apperently Ajay is just fine with telling people all the stuff that is wrong with their maps but he can take even joking critizism about his.

Protector_Pulch wrote: Anyway, I have the right to question your map. That's everyone's right. [END OF DISCUSSION]

Totally true, AJ if you wanna be anal about accuracy and you have the balls to make fun of our maps then we are well within our rights criticizing yours (or the lack therof). Im done being polite, youve managed to piss off almost everyone on the HD team your crappy attitude and frankly were all sick and tired of you, ask n0bs or Slayer what they think of you and you're bound to get an earful of some of the vulgarities ive spared you recently. No one asked for your malformed opinions or your bad attitude on this thread and I think I speak for everyone when I ask you to kindly stop nagging on our map's thread and work on your own for a change.

We have yet to see anything from your map still, and the way I see it, our map with all its crappiness, poor modding, innacurate vehicles and sesame street characters beats your lack of a map anyday.

Que se pudras bien en su mundo perfecto Ajay.

Bac-Talan · Post by **Bac-Talan** » Mon Sep 18, 2006 1:47 am

PEOPLE!
SHUT IT!
Yes, I getting mad, unfortunetly the word to best descibe my current temperment with this disscussion isn't allowed on Gametoast.

~Ajay: STOP attacking other people and their maps and stop telling us how great your map is going to be. Show us. In YOUR OWN thread. NOT HERE.

~Pulch: Cool it. Sarcasm like that is totally unneeded.

~Yoyam: you're trying to help, I know, and thank you, but you're only adding tinder to the blaze. Let it go.

~ The rest of you involved in this: I think for the most part you have realized that flames like this are childish. Thank you.

In short, all of you still argueing: cool it and stop flames.
I don't want anything else AT ALL about this on this thread. Please, this is enough. Stop bickering like kids.
I don't even need a reply about this post. Just stop

yoyam · Post by **yoyam** » Mon Sep 18, 2006 2:11 am

I agree.

*takes a step back from the flames*

Anyways i did a fair amount of modelling tonite and I after looking forever for a place where I could make the armory work, i found it, on that area right on top of the pillars, half of it will be used for the armory and half will be used for the main staircase. I cant wait to get to work on the armory, im putting off doing the 1st floor until I finish that so if you guys have any ideas for the armory, fire away.

Should I use Idea#1 or Idea#2? [(See bottom of pg:17) Feel free to add your on idea/comments/rants etc.]
