Moonsilver Art

Post by Dyluck »

What ever happened to the artwork of some of the Gods that used to be on the Moonsilver site? I still have my own copies of 4 or 5 of them, but I think they were pretty nice drawings and some players would probably be interested in seeing some of those depictions.

Who actually goes to Moonsilver any more? I'm sure half the playerbase doesn't even know who/what/when/where that is. :|

this is sorta random, but i've always wondered this so im finally gonna ask. Is the map of illarion actually all of illarion... cuz its too small!

And on a similar note, how about we get an actual map of illarion (like the one we have of Gobiath). It'll have borders of the major nations, of course with alot of open area for people to point out there own made up home nation. It'll have names of the continents and such. I think that'd be cool.

I think that would be rather like looking at a map of Jamaica (or other relatively small island) and asking if it was a map of the whole world. Of course not, it's just this one small island.

I don't even see Tol Vanima and the three sisters. We really need to get our Geographical Stories straight, this is interesting.

I am not sure Sally boy, but I think maybe that map was made with the extra islands and land so if we ever need more floor space in game we can add it in...

well i remember when i was a noob, seeing a post where a dev (i think damien) posted that map saying it was of the entire world

edit: Either way! i still suggest an updated map of the entire world be made.

Nah, why a map of the whole world?
All we need is one of the actuall ig accessable terrain and some info about big cities out there(Like Salkamar).

This map is obsolete since ages. It shows gobiath and some now nonexisting smaller landspaces. It was meant as worldmap before, when the staff decided to make the map "travel-able", and use hotspot maps instead of the map system we have now (one single huge map thing). Which was never realized, which led to the actual Gobiath map (which was planned to get ten times larger with the flexible hotspot-alike stuff).

A worldmap of the whole world background is in the making, thanks to martin. ( Over about the last two to three years i had several player volunteers who wanted to make it, but they never got far. )

If we're going to make an entire world, shouldn't we wait for a larger player base? We have a very scarce population already; I'd hate to see how many people you'd bump into if the map was 6x larger than what it is now.

The world map is just for background information. It will give the game a "living" world background which you can kinda touch and feel instead of having to browse through a huge historylined text which is too long to read at all.
If locations on the world map are reachable at all, it will be small spots on extra maps for special quest things - but if and how, that isn't quite sure. ;)

Sorry, seldom do I nowadays browse this site; therefore no one was able to answer.

Actually the old pages are still there, well ... with the exception of the index-page. So, using the old links still proof to be successful: http://www.moonsilver.de/english_alt/gods/gods.htm

But there are only pictures of Nargùn, Elara, Malachín, Sirani and Moshran. The other gods were not favoured with an artwork ;-). Unfortunately it seems that I haven't recorded the persons name who has drawn all the pictures. And as my memory fails me, I will not be able to provide you with one. Maybe she is still around or some other remembers?
