woooo!!! you rock!!! a request!! could you release a "dummy version" (not a beta version) now that simply includes walking as a villager? I like the idea of being able to do tasks as a villager but mostly what I'm interested in (and from the sounds of it, you've already gotten that far) is just being able to walk around from a villagers perspective (with mouse-look enabled, ie, FPS style looking around)... You are my hero!! this is one of the single most coveted features that I wished to see in BW2!

hmmm must ask.. what Will work ? ^^

If you read the whole thread, it sounds like they're trying to make quests available via the villager, as well as fighting, assassinations, spying, building, typical disciple functions (logging, mining, "kissing")... it's quite an ambitious project... although it doesn't quite qualify as a conversion, it would be pretty damn hard to tell the difference between a conversion and this mod while in villager mode.

Hurry up please I am dieing for an alpha version!

great idea i can't wait untill its finished

well i like the idea and support it but i c some things that might not work 1. War. War can be greatly imbalanced because it u can be a one man army run in stab run away wash rinse and repeat. 2. building. Building would be very hard since no god build 3.Gods and creatures. would they be removed or who would control them 4. climbing walls (as archer). Possible? and unless i think of others thats it butm great idea anyways.

hay i have a good question/request for this mod you know how in B&W 1 they had a soccer/football mod right and village banter mabey we can bring that back in your mod u can get voice actors and get them to do abunch of frases i havent played the game yet so i dont know if it has those but it will be cool to beable to have conversations mabey somthing diverse like the elder scrolls 4 oblivian and u can listin to other peoples conversatons and it will be cool just to walk to the field and start playing with people in the soccer/football or mabey other sport and if any 1 know's where i can get B&W 2 cheap tell me or PM me please thanks in advance

yah this would be awsome!

i have to say this would be awesome if u finished it sometime soon

Who supports my idea/request for this mod it is on page 4 there are 2 of em. and i think we should get an alpha just as a walking person or first person screenshots and 3rd .....and mabey 1 when he is choping down the tree that would be nice of yall cause we need to be updated on your progress and youve made alot of progress from the point u started on this mod and u have all are support so give us hope by showing us stuff please.

wow! this mode sounds like the "jonny watts" cheat on Roller coaster tycoon 3 which allow you to see the park from the eye of guests! it was AWSOME on roller coaster tycoon 3 so i know that it wil be even AWSOMER() on Black and white 2!!!

I would seriously love for the team to release to us a mod now that just has a villager's eye view option... but I suspect that to do that they'd have to spend some time removing options and retesting it... which would slow down the project.

in the x-fire dev interview someone said that someone else had scripted a villager eye cam. like you said probably needs testign still though

This could be neat with jobs like Thief, Farmer (animals 2), Adventurer, or archiologist. things like that. take lots of work though.

Eh. Is this project still in planning mode or are have peeps actually started coding yet? Some proof would be nice, for all we know it could just be some lamer pulling bullshit out of his a**.

Aye, most of us on IRC are assuming this is the case.

I have no idea what I am talking about

is there a release date?

The only 'proof' he has shown is a screen shot that anyone could do. ;0 I personally dont think its real. Its a dream perhaps and would be cool to wander around looking through a villagers eyes. Mike R

well if they dont show us another pic soon then ill agree with you.

*nod* but I think the person that had worked on the villigers eye cam script, was one of the devs.

Sorry but I find this a kinda useless mod. It takes to long to mod something like that in. What your basicly trying to do is rewrite the whole game, seeing the modding community till thusfar is not advanced. Besides, if I wanted a villagers life then I would play the sims 2. I think its much better to improve the actuall game then rewriting it.

Awww, that sucks bad, i wanted this mod bad, Please KHAZAR-2 show us some proof, i wanna go to my miniature tavern and dance with other villagers.

I do play sims 2 sometimes so i want this. Lmao. Also no it does not involve rewriting the game idiot. Ever notice a folder called plugins? Humm... and a bunch of empty folders because of the .stuff is read for the missing files. I wonder i wonder... I think he can just write an addon and place it on. He did say this will take serious time. It wont involve much rewriting since all he needs to do is tell the game to include his files. It just needs camera rewriting and some control addons and maybe a master file to control it. The rest is fluff to make it more fun

yeah you guys 3d-master has a point mabey its true mabey its not we just need to be patient...... i mean come on a mod is a mod like some mods for unreal tournament 2004 are way different from the main game like 2 i got listed here: UnrealSkarrjj(i think thats the name)-it changed UT into a RTS very different from a FPS Unwheel-Turned UT into a raceing game here again very different so what makes u guys think he cant change black and white 2 into villagers eye view with task i mean that element of him farming and gathering resources is already in the game he just needs to tweek it a bit so u will be the one controlling it am i right but see it will take time so just bare with us i mean if it is not true people are creating abunch of mod/addons that u could look forward to. OFF TOPIC: hay 3d-master how is the dragon doing and any one else who reads this where can i get the Collecters Edition of black and white 2 (i live in the US in North Carolina) i havent got the game yet but i love the first 1

Since when is it not possible to have an opinion? I have alot of RTS from the popular ones to less ones and never did I ever see a succesfull RTS to RPG ( exculding warcraft 3, but that has RPG elements ). Yust some camera rewriting? And controlls? Yes that is quite easy. But to have fighting and doing jobs in the game? Nope dont think that would be very possible. I do agrea that it would be fun to yust have a citizen whom you can controll and see from his eyes, nothing more.
