Two options: 1.We start work on bug fixes on the map when it goes out (hopefully next weekend) and bigger and better versions(new features, Ashlands stuff when Ashlands comes out,etc.) or 2. I work on a video series about the nerdy side of the development. Edit: I guess I should have said that bug fixes will be a priority either way so really its just bigger versions or video series on nerdy side first. Whoops. Let me know what you think in the replies

Started watching Thread doing a play through, started my own play through, and now I am trying to dig up the back story on this amazing map. I hadn't heard about this project until two days ago, and have been absolutely blown away by what the two of you have accomplished! I truly enjoy playing Valheim, but after the past 2+ years it has gotten to the point that it is no longer as fun as it once was. I wish that I could go back and experience it blind vanilla again just to have that same level of enjoyment. With your map, it is as close as I will ever get to a "new" experience again with this amazing game. I am one of those guys who would love to see the technical side of how you accomplished this feat. If you were to put a video together on how you managed to put all of the features together that are so foreign to vanilla Valheim, I would be very interested in seeing the mechanics behind it. While I have played modded Valheim, the complexity of the areas you have created is nothing short of mind blowing; the builds, and the blended biomes are just beautiful. I look at all of it an just can't comprehend how you accomplished everything that you have. Thanks for making Valheim fun again, truly appreciate what you have freely offered to the community out of love for the game.

I can't wait to try this out! I do have one question though and it's regarding Co-op / Multiplayer. Will the un-modded version, support Multiplayer and specifically co-op? For example in this video you mention all the vanilla loot of Valheim is spread out in set locations throughout the adventure, for a single player you'd expect to only need 1 copy of those items but how would that function in multiplayer? Is multiplayer parties expected to craft their own copies as they progress? How does crafting even function in this adventure or does it at all? Will those locations hold multiple copies of the items so each player can get their own?

@9byte

3 ай бұрын

The loot is designed for solo or mulitplayer playthroughs. A lot of loot is just placed once which means everyone will be sharing the loot and everyone will be playing different play styles based on the current loot you can find. A solo would leave some behind whereas a big group would keep upgrading the lowest persons gear or giving items to people that are playing that items play style. There is plenty of loot though so dont worry. And some items that are given only once at first will pop up again later in random spots. There is some crafting but most items are giving already made.

Im really looking forward to playing this with my kids
