A glimpse of the update in numbers

[Adrian]

The task of reworking all the characters was one of the biggest we have had in a long time for Regnum.
We thought of sharing with you some of the data for you to see the effort that this labor took. (and this only counts the Art team and not the code that the new engine required).

22 - New models
88 - LOD models
40 - New animations
150 - Touched up animations
60 - Touched up armor sets
37 - Touched up tunic sets
37 - New tunic textures
20 - New clothing textures
154 - Touched up and new materials
30 - New faces
26 - Touched up faces
28 - Painted eyes
80 - Touched up hairs
20 - Touched up hats
60 - Touched up helmets
7 - New horns
35 - Concept drawings
7,5 - Months of duration
168 - Days of work
4000+ - Dedicated man hours

We are very pleased with the results, obviously, we still have to fix some things but I want to congratulate all the team (artists and developers) for their incredible work!

kindest regards,

-Chilko

Seems like NGD has been doing alot of touching up...










:sifflote:

[Znurre]

Congratulations for the hard work :)
I hope it pays out by decreasing the number of players who quit the game early on.

[Mbwana]

well done for the hard work :)

[Nekoko]

Thanks for the hard work ^^

[Inkster]

so did Chilko give you all a payrise :)

[NotScias]

Congratulations and thanks again NGD for your awesome work !
The new models look really awesome and greatly raised the graphical quality of RO. I don't know many others MMOs having such or better graphics, and even less free ones.

Congratulations and thanks to all of NGD staff
Awesome work !

[Mellion]

Awesome?

I see now mostly dark brown-orange characters with gray faces. It is impossible to distinguish between realm, race and class.

Let's do the math:


168 - Days of work
4000+ - Dedicated man hours


So it's ~24h of work per day, and that means three dedicated persons (with 8h a day shifts) working on the modelling.
(No conclusions in this post, just the math.)

I don't say it is a bug. I only want to ASK if this is really intended?

Take a look. This is no fun:

I'm sure it will be fixed eventually, although you might have just caught a bunch of players of the same race or similar. Give them a break though, after all the work they've put into at least trying to make things better (and in nearly every case succeeded) NGD deserve a thumbs up, even if it's a little one ;) :thumb_up:

[Greyman_tle]

Yes the new...looks better than the old. :clapclap:

Although...:angel1:

Re-decorating a house with structural problems....doesnt solve the structural problems, it only distracts the viewer for a short time. :play_ball:

Hang onto your hats NGD :rale:

Press V and you see the difference between your realm and others, you can see the difference between a knight and barb (knight have schild) and a hunter(no ninja) and marks (pet) the difference between the conjurers and locks is hard to see, most of the time i don't see it;)

Very nice work NGD

[HuntShot]

REally Looks great again!

[Mikan]

I think you've done a great job on the new models NGD, especially the archers. My Hunter has never looked so much like a real Hunter before, rather than some Marksman ripoff like in the past versions. Now if only the towns, cities and forts looked as good. :smile:

I'm glad you finally got it done, now let's move on to more important things and make it real.

we wanted to move to the important stuff, but now that you say that forts and towns should look better, gameplay enhancements will have to wait for another year (joking joking!!! :))
