ORKVALE - Stronghold - Preorders

Howdy,
I was just putting all the stuff together from my old Mapping Kit project (tutorials + source files + app to walk around and see w your own eyes). But since i work alone I'd like some kind of feedback for this; As I mentioned here some time ago this will be some kind of live tutorial with all the files and lessons in it; with the power of tge 1.4 my work suddenly took a fast curve and i am almost finished; please take a look at the shots and give some feedback on how you might want it; :)
Note that this Demo level keeps the architecture of the old Stronghold intact, only the level design and modeling and prop placement and such are others; Mapping Kit comes with a few mapping solutions (like collisions for outdoor structures made inside World Editor);
Thank you !
and some models currently in the Demo Map:

Totally cool, looks like TSE, really crisp textures. Are you still using the gimp for those textures.

Preorders get extra source files (3d and 2d art) :)
Here's a hint of the interface:
and here is the Google Base webpage for this item. Still working out on learning how it works though.

I am testing right now Google base. Here is how it looks, i am just curious how it's gonna work. I'll post the link for preorders as soon as it gets published (20 min I guess)Preorders get extra source files (3d and 2d art) :)

How much are the preorders then?

Free. Youll pay the same price now or ever. But get extra stuff, that's all. Sounds more like another way to make people happy with a simple registration. :)

If you need some webspace email me smorrey@gmail.com and I'll hook you up with a quick little website and some secure download space or something.

Hey apparatus, might want to see if GarageGames will sell this for you. As it stands right now, I'm having a heck of a time getting your googlebase to function in my browser properly. It is very confusing.If you need some webspace email me smorrey@gmail.com and I'll hook you up with a quick little website and some secure download space or something.

Also I have no luck with e-commerce websites. They're all expensive (for me) and can't afford to start selling this trough some 'send ya the link for download in a couple of days' method. I want ppl to come in, pay, get the thing, play.
Thanks, again.

Thank you, Dreamer. I am only not sure who to contact here at GG. Josh wrote me a while ago but I still wait an aswer from him. And don;t know who should I contact about this problem.Also I have no luck with e-commerce websites.

Give him time and he should reply.
Let me know if you want the pack ported to TSE ;)

Josh is the best person to talk to about it, but he's just very busy.Give him time and he should reply.

The work looks really good.
12/07/2005 (7:06 pm)
Ok I am a little confused. The preorder is for a commercial pack right? But you said free? I don't get it? JeffT suggested it should go into TDN. Which let's you post article, instructions, pics and files. This puts you into GG's search engine and your name get's put on the resource. The second option would be the older resource system. But if your gonna make it a pack then charge for it :)The work looks really good.

I'd say this is called an Enhance Content pack. Not only you get the content, but I explain to you how to properly use it. And how it was made, And you can modify it if you like. Because you get most of the source files (2d and 3d)
Hope it sounds okay. ;)

Preordering it's a simple process here; i can aknowledge just about how many people are interested in this work. Plus, who preorders, get's some extra stuff. Purchasing it without preorder will give the product as planned - sample missions, sample textures, models, everything there is inside there explained in a side PDF with images and all the stuff.

Drop me a line and I'll set you up with a little ecommerce site where the customer can do exactly what you discuss.
Setting up ecommerce sites is my bread and butter so I can get it done quickly and easily for you.
You can have it for no charge until GG starts selling the pack for you, or until I have a real need of reclaiming the server (It can be yours for a few months anyways)
