WHEEL OF THE SUN One Rode to Asa Bay --- Early beta. (c) Mordiggian Long ago, in the distant north... Long have the sons and daughters of Thor and Freya lived within these lands, crafted from the body of Ymir the ice giant. Years have followed years. Many times has winter turned to spring and spring to summer under the guidance of the one-eyed Odin. Another summer is coming to north, yet this time it brings with it something else than warm sunlight and bears. Rumors tell that new god has arrived from the foreign lands of south. Some words of this allmighty deity have been heard before, but now he is heading for north to drive off the old gods. People need honorable champion to rally and stand before the invasion of the christians. Young warrior has arrived from the realm of Novgorod. Though foreigner himself, he too bears a viking heritage. This warrior is you. FOR TESTERS: Current version: 0.405 b Developement time: 4-5 weeks Work group: Mordiggian - everything KEYBOARD EVENTS

Don't know why. Other than hosting the file, everything stays normal. |

Okay, I kinda redoed the whole thing. So, there's now basically just one reputation bar and more importantly there are five virtues which will be a main theme in this story. There are still many flaws and bugs, but I'd get to them later on.. Right now I must have some sleep :) So, for the testers, type /cam1 to make your life easier. And also, if you type /virtues you can see the progress of your character on those. I will come up with more detailed description as to how these things work later on. Now there is a ship that goes by it's route and player can hitch a ride if he wishes, for a price of course (which are modified by one's reputation and virtues). There still seem to be some problems with those triggers. I guess it's just my lack of sleep.. Some basic mistakes I quess. You can palce up a camp anywhere in wilderness and sleep to recover yourself. Currenlty only wolves may disturb your sleep, but I'm planning on creating more interruptions. Camping somewhat f*cks up the ship, but I think I can find a remedy to that too near in the future. Also, you can talk with anyone in the map. There's a skill for it too, (question mark on command icons or "T" as hot key). Feel free to comment and throw in some ciririque. I'm off to bed after a hard day work.. Ps. Here are some screenies too. |

Don't change the move/attack/stop icons, I hate it when people do that. I don't see how the virtues of someone would affect a price for a boattrip, although reputation might certainly do so. I'll give the map a spin tomorrow though. |

Well, mainly it's Honor which certainly was respected in the early days. And their effect is minor. |

That looks very nice. I'll give it a try. EDIT: Okay, I found a few of things. 1. When talking to the purple hero and the priest that was deserted in the forest, I found myself frozen when selecting errands. 2. The tooltips for the Priest's abilities are the same after they hit level 3! Change please! |

Thank you. Those will be fixed for the next version, propably tonight. Purple (Stormcrow Clan) heroes are still under developement and are there only because I forgot to remove them. And the skills are still under work too, but good to know what to fix. I appreciate it. |

"Tooltips above level 3 skills are not working" You using some form of optimisation tool? That's probably the cause. |

Nope, just copying the lines from early skill tooltips and changing the "data" fields... Prapably should just write the exact values of damage/effects instead of trying to "link" that data value. Dunno, experiences anyone? |

Here's a few screenies from the current version. Some names and values are still to be changed (duh!). Picture 1: Mercenaries are hired to keep peace in village of Hornberg. You can run into these guy just about anywhere and can hire few of them to fight by you as well. Picture 2: Gauntlets of Thunder, gloves believed to belong to great Thor which, according to the legends, give it's bearer great strength and the ability to wield great Mjoellnir. (Price incorrect) Picture 3: Some scenery over the northern lands... Some mountains, forests and a sea in distance. Picture 4: Valkyries are pretty handy companions, but they steal half of your experience. Picture 5: Just some shot of a bird-view cam. |

Right click on the data field and click on "autofill". Then fill it in as you need to (won't work for some abilities). |

Ah, thank heavens! Great to know that.. After all these years there's still so much to learn from WE :) Spent this night trying to battle out with some morphing stuff... Here's some pics, won't update the version yet, as the only improvement besides the ww stuff is new leveling up -system where you get 5 Attribute points (Diablo anyone?) to distribute amongst your attris. |

New sh*t added:
Plus here's few screenies from the quest where player embarks on a quest to find ingredients for the anti-wolf spell (if necessary). New version will be ready soon for those who are willing to test. |

In the third pick two posts up there is missing some text on how to change back to normal from the werewolf stage. |
