[the beavers1]

does anyone know whats going on with this project? the latest update I have found was a comment by Orzie on ModDB about there being serious progress in reply to a hidden comment

We are working on the new interfaces currently. There are many things done, but not many of them are polished enough to be shown as official updates.

ok thanks! I always worry when i dont hear an update after a month, cause a lot of projects end up dying if they have a long period without updates

It's been awhile. Is this mod still in development?

The Might and Magic 8,5 Team is calling to arms!


If you love classic Might & Magic universe by New World Computing, always wanted to reveal its story more and participate in the largest MM6-8 modding project ever known, we are open to new members!

Today's post will be concerning the artists.


1) Low-poly 3D modeling. Dungeons, locations, level design, environment objects. The add-on being developed is supposed to have a lot of new interesting locations which will be using the engine capabilities at their maximum, somewhere even being closer to Might and Magic IX.



2) High-poly 3D modeling. Characters, creatures, building interior scenes. Currently there is a pretty large amount of work on this direction which slows the team down, because we draw additional attention to the quality of sprites and overall graphics which characterize the entire game.




3) 2D art. Textures, concept art, interface art, various. Those who are familiar with Photoshop, GIMP, MyPaint or other soft for digital 2D art are always welcome since there is always work on these directions. Sketches and drafts included.




The world of Might&Magic awaits!

Looks great. The creature sprites look like they fit well with the Might and Magic Universe. Keep up the good work!

[Variol]

I'm a'waitin'!

[Xdarkon]

The chances of me being able to help considering im not good at any of the mentioned things, but I want to say those pictures look great

[orzie]

Well, concept art can also come in handy - it's easier to make a 3D image when you have something to take as a draft reference. I am not a good artist as well (disregard the avatar hehe).

[boban89]
