Home Improvement - FK Style
Home Improvement - FK Style
I'm sure you've all stumbled into an area and turned up your nose at a room description or a curiosuly colourised item. Sometimes an area's either lacking consistency or its rooms need to be a little more vivid, but all you can do is shake your head and grumble.
Ladies and gentlemen - an opportunity has arisen!
I'm putting together a group of people who are keen to help work on revamping some of the game's existing areas one at a time. The team's role includes, but is not limited to:
Checking general spelling/grammar
Redescribing rooms, items and NPCs
Recolouring rooms, items and NPCs
Making quest text easier to follow
Identifying gaps in available goods for sale, etc
Fixing NPC and item properties, such whether a mob wanders, and whether an item is see-through or not.
You need not have any building experience whatsoever - just be keen to help out and put your ideas forward for discussion! The matter of where and/or what we'll start work on first will wait until after the group has come together, and we can start mulling things over on a forum of our own.
If you'd like to sign up for this, or if you have any questions, feedback or advice, please reply to this thread and I'll do my best to address it all!

Me!
I'll volunteer to help wherever needed. And I'm a pretty awesome proof reader too.
I only wish I'd kept better notes of things I've already noticed!

Weit in der Champagne im Mittsommergrün,
dort, wo zwischen Grabkreuzen Mohnblumen blühn,
da flüstern die Gräser und wiegen sich leicht
im Wind, der sanft über das Gräberfeld streicht.

My time on-line is limited these days, but I can work off-line sometimes. Feel free to make use of my time, such as it is, too. Thanks for this!

Re: Home Improvement - FK Style
Some of my areas need a grammar spanking, I'd love to assist.
Justice is not neccesarily honourable, it is a tolerable business, in essence you tolerate honour until it impedes justice, then you do what is right.

Definitely up for this.

I've been keeping a little list of typos I've come across for just such an occasion.
I'd like to help if I can.

Re: Home Improvement - FK Style
Right - thanks for all the volunteers so far, guys and gals!
I'll be setting up a new forum on these boards over the next day or so, and we'll start to bring our ideas together there. I'm looking forward to us all getting stuck into this!

I would be glad to offer my help with this too.
Re: Home Improvement - FK Style
Okay! I'm sorry for the wait, but you've all been added to a revamp project forum group, and should have access to an extra mini forum.
If anyone doesn't have access, or would like to join the group but hasn't said so yet, please post in this thread to let me know.
Thanks again guys!
