February Update: Better late than never!

Team Return is focused on its work and more good things are upcoming…

Well another day and it would have been March. Whoopsie.

Don’t worry, the lateness of website update in no way means we are slacking off: quite the contrary actually – we are hard at work with an pretty important deadline for the end of March and hopefully a announcement shortly after that will please a lot of people.

So what has Team Return been up to, you will ask?

Well as you must have noticed we released what I call the “Ultima Game System” over at the NWN2 Vault, which basically includes all our game systems. In addition, Jaakko also released stand alone versions of all these systems with an improved 2.0 version of the Unified Systems upcoming. He has also crafted a very complete Books Plugin for the NWN2 Toolset, which allows to write and create book that you can read ingame as well as adding lot of things to them (such as images, or adding xp when reading a specific book…).

Next on his plate? A brand new Journal system, yup!

On the writing front, things are going well, and we’re notably very happy to announce that Kat – our extraordinary writer/editor – is back amongst us. We know now have 7 NPCs currently being written with plan to have all the NPCs for this specific region being finished by the end of March.

On a worldbuilding front, preliminary design work has now begun on our dungeon areas, with the actual building meant to start pretty soon.

So this is it for this month, but as usual let me say:

WE STILL NEED YOU!
We still need extra team members to keep development going and most importantly: make development go FASTER. Writers and Worldbuilders would definitely come in handy, and we are still sorely lacking in 3D Artists. While NWN2 has a lot of art, and there is a lot we can use from the community – if we want to create some real Ultima creatures and placeables – we definitely need 3D artists to craft these new objects, keeping in mind they could also come in handy for other projects!

Again: this project will not be finished without you!

See you all next month!
