Forgotten village is pretty cool. the black wolf forest doesnt seem all that special to me, although it was Azenn who created it and makes an awesome mod.mute83 wrote:this is just some areas i stumpled on, and thought i would share it, and there are more:

But regardless, i think it has to relate to BG and the Sword Coast area to be added in.

Re: area/modules
That "Deep Snow" terrain looks really awesome and has great atmosphere. Maybe it could be added before the frost castle as an area high in the mountain range just before the tree line, as there are sparse trees in the area. Then next comes the barren/rocky the Frost Castle area.
Is there a limit to the amount of areas we can have on the PW? Is there going to start being some major slowdown if it starts getting really big? Somone mentioned eventually we could expand into Amn and build Athkatla an surrounding area. Could that actually happen or do when do we reach our limits?

Re: area/modules
There is a maximum to the size a mod can be depending on the server you're running it on, I believe. If you want to exceed that size, you have to connect servers or buy/rent a bigger one.
Outdoor areas take up much more space that interior ones so if one wants a big PW, one either connect several servers or make relatively few but large outdoor areas with a lot of dungeons.

Re: area/modules
Really depends on the size and the type. You can't compare a 24x24 interior map and a 24x24 exterior map. The exterior one is drain insanely more than the interior. So don't take my word as absolute truth but, if I had to take a guess, I'd say the chances of having non-essential-but-nice exterior maps added are way lower than non-essential-but-nice interior maps.

Deep Snow
An area like that would really play havoc with small characters, familiars, things knocked down, player corpses and loot bags. Maybe if the snow only went up to the ankles or halfway up to their knees...
