Might & Magic Warlords Project

"Passed all legality"? What are you doing if Ubi sends you C&D when you´re 99.99% finished?

we have a backup to change all place names and character names just in case we do not need to change the name because its simple we were not alowed to call it for say might and magic 11 or owt like that but we can call it what we have called it.

Creature names we can use because ubi do not own the rights to creatures of legend e.g angels, lichs, skeletons and the rest.

We have asked them for permision to use the content from the might and magic 7 universe but still no reply we will continue to bug them about this matter untill we do get a reply.

And on a final note and dont think they will mind us useing the might and magic 7 world because the world of colony was destroyed in heroes of might and magic 4 and no longer exists in ubi's might and magic world our game is set in 816 A.S well before the might and magic 7 timeline.

All we can do is wait for a reply from ubi and carry on with development plus if they send us a C&D then that can only mean one thing that they have stolen the idea and plan to make the game themself or they would not bother with a small time modding team.

I do find this interesting...I saw your post on this at celestial heavens as well but I check in here daily, rarely to post. I see it looks as if you are starting at a point right after MM8 with the plane between planes. You seem to know the MM7 game world pretty well. In any case good luck...was going to post more but I'm at work!

The game will not start after MM8, though it'll actually start long before MM6 MM8 is after MM7, but we are including some locations from.
All of Might and Magic VII's regions will be included, and all the Elemental Planes from MM8 too, plus many more from Heroes of Might and Magic. Locations from MM6 will not be included since that's a different continent altogether - though some characters and places like Kriegspire, Agar, Mist, Lord Alamar and Melian will be mentioned and referenced to.

Given the scope, how many years are you estimating before release?

Excellent - I am glad to see that you have put some realistic thought into it. I have to admit that it was a 'baiting' question - if you had said under a year, I would have assumed you were doomed to failure I hope that your team can sustain the effort!

Cant speak for my team but i will never give up untill the game is finished if ppl quit we hire more but my teams is very dedicated to the work on it so i have faith in them

UT3 should be very cheap in 3 years, so I'm thinking that won't be a problem. I'm not very tactful but please take the following as constructive criticism:

Okay, I'm just praying that you're not planning on doing any of the writing or dialogue. Your inability to spell will be a huge detriment to a successful effort. I'd find somebody with a mastery of the English language to take over your PR efforts.
Remember, every single post you make reflects on your game. Try to post in a professional manner, not as a 17 year old punk

Thanks for the information will try to do so in the future but you must remember i am very busy with the mod so have to type these messages quickly to carry on with what i am doing,

Plus there is someone else working on the storyline not me am just setting everything in motion.

But thanks for letting me know i will try to slow my typeing down lol.

You misunderstood what I meant by "monetizing". The EULA for most toolsets (or game with toolsets) preclude selling your mod, because that means you are trying to make money off the efforts of the original creators without compensating them. Seeking financial backers/sponsors (assuming you could get any) might be construed as the same thing. Why exactly would someone sponsor you, by the way?

We plan to make no money from this mod but all we ment by sponser's is support from developers thats all just by adding a littlebit of content to the mod and they will get there logo's into the credits and at the startup of the mod.

Emerald Isle Map Beta screenshots

Evemorn Isle Map Beta Screenshots

Here is some more released content sorry for the delays in information but alot of the things we have made so far cannot be shown untill the release date.
But here is a few things we can show you.

Phantom Mage ( Working Name) [Teaser Picture Not Full Model]



Description

A prime example of the embodiment of necromancy itself, the Phantom Mage stands among Deyja's first forays into the magical creation of undead spellcasters. While prior attempts to create true undead Necromancers have merely succeeded with varying degrees of quality in the past, Henden'lal and his cultists are finally satisfied with the product of their toils: a non-sentient, skeletal conjurer.

Phantom Magi do not possess any degree of self-awareness, subsiding only on the will of the Necromancer who raised them and the complex rituals involved in their reanimation from mortal corpses. They are much more than plain Skeletons, however: outfitted with strong breastplates and chilling staffs enchanted with foul sorcery, these sorcerous terrors can unleash a full repetoire of curses and hexes at little more than a word from their masters.

The Necromancers plan to improve their techniques in the future, hoping to create a means of converting living beings into immortal, deathless harbingers of damnation itself. Deyja's unbreaking alliance with Nighon and the Church of the Moon in Karigor is extremely likely to render this unholy dream a reality within the next few centuries. But until that time, the Phantom Magi shall form Deyja's skeletal legions for decades to come.

Sword Of Frost (True Relic)

Just a little update for you all hope everyone is well.
Progress on the Total Conversion is on going and is now well in full flow so here is a few pics
