Not really ready for a facebook upload but I will post it here because I think it's cool: This is the start of what the world creation screen will look like. Eventually there will be more to it but for now I will get functional by letting the user enter a name and a seed. Eventually there will be random switches and dials (that effectively set the seed but in a more abstract way) and then the map-rings will spin until they align with the new world's map. The lighting in this one is also animated and moving to this UI from the other one is just an animated camera movement. They both exist in the same 3D space. It will all tie together at some point... you'll see.

It's surprisingly easy for me (in my code) to pull one of these maps out of a world fractal. Actually, it's easier than generating the terrain. I was doing it even as a preview in my AI tester stuff. It's not 100% accurate because it doesn't take into account all the things that get added after the fractal but it's definitely good enough for a preview image. The idea is to map out the world only enough to know where the spawn location will be and then center the preview map around that. Once you lock it in and then go to the character creation screen then the world will start generating on disk for real... finding the starter towns and stuff. (When those are implemented properly, I mean). For now, I just needed a form so I show a hint at what the UI will be and will add a simple form for putting in the seed and name... then proceed to character creation which will be similarly limited. But now I will have a place to expand things.

Do you know how "customizable" the characters will be?

1.) take a picture (press F2 in mythruna to do so, it will be saved in your mythruna directory) 2.) go to an image hosting service like imgur.com 3.) copy the link + the .jpg don't just copy like imgur.com/image copy imgur.com/image.jpg 4.) put inside of the [img] tags [img]<link>[ /img]
