Quote: To start off and give some background; I've always been really interested in creating my own maps for games and mods etc but I have never really been too into the game or their editing tools are just aweful (ET)
One of my not-so-fresh ideas I had was to almost completely revamp Azeroth. It wasn't even an option until I learned of Nogg-it, and it sparked my interest once again... but I was unsure that I could stand to work with such a rough unstable program.
However, I want to go on with this... I find myself really bored very often and would have nothing better to do... and FFS, it would be a good way to spend my time and possibly a neat project to work on.
Does anyone know those WoW.Dev people? They have world building tools that work much better than Nogg-it... I want thatI don't think they would give it to just anyone, but I haven't a clue how to get in contact with them and convince them that I'm working on rebuilding WoW and not cheating in BGs
Sooo that's my plan. I want the zones to be named the same and such, but I want to make them much better than they are now, how I see the world should be. I want the battlegrounds to help provoke large battles in between flags and not some honor grind like they currently are.
I'm sure you get my drift. l hope I can get some approval and long-term support on my project!
Right, and as of now I don't need any sort of team. my girlfriend and I will be working on the actual building. I might need some help with DBC edits and stuff like that though. I would also like a more user-friendly nogg-it or some of those tools that WoW.Dev has. I should go sign up there and poke around a while.

Quote:Do not expect WoW.Dev's tools shared, surely not with MMOwned.
Also, revamping the whole Azeroth would take you ages.
Anyway, good luck with your project, but I don't think I would like to be involved in this, too time consuming.

Quote: Well, the easiest way may be: Get in contact with us.
Just register at wow.dev & join IRC. So that part is done
But as Dragon[Sky] said, we wont share anything with MMOwned.
Just work a bit, show that off and you may be invited to do mcuh more than just modelchaning on MMOwned
Just join wow.dev and see what time brings.

Quote: Thanks Schlumpf, I may do that.
As an update since I just recently started playing around with noggit seriously, I decided to go to mulgore and play with the 2 first towns there.
I couldnt figure out how to move a building... I dont even know if thats possible
So I did a minor resize, tilt and reposition of scenery and objects.
Then I thought "hey, i never roll tauren because the walk from town 1 to town 2 is horrible." So I tried to open the exit to Town1 in a different spot but then I ran into a problem, I couldnt get the road texture to go all the way up the hill.
That's about all of the mentionable testing ive done so far besides editing mountain ranges and hill-layout in areas.

Quote: I just completed my first area beautification change, Darnassus.
Changes:
-Foliage a bit larger
-A few trees placed differently
-Bank larger and turned slightly
-New scenery island
-Some hills more extravagant
BONUS!
-You can now walk the part from the AH -> Bank trail that you used to have to swim.
Please note i did not do any major changes, so these files can be used with the Live client.
All changes (except the AH>Bank change) are for looks.
RapidShare: 1-Click Webhosting
Remember, this is the Dip-Alpha of this file, and if something is wrong with it PM ME!
I appreciate the help with any but reports (floating trees, my ah>bank exploit not working correctly, or if it's just a bad save on noggit's part. Remember, this IS my first world change file and I currently have no way to see these changes ingame, so please bare with me!
Hopefully someone can enjoy the changes!
