Skyrim: New city project - Games

I'll make a map telling the done and unfinished interiors.

[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;35566800]Random and probably bad ideas: Inahraan Vokunkriid Mindodaanik Dinokbrod The Shadows Arm [of the Sovereign] Black Brothers[/QUOTE] I like the name Arm , it could be anything so very fit for a secret organization.

[QUOTE=Satansick;35579598]I like the name Arm , it could be anything so very fit for a secret organization.[/QUOTE] I agree, single words that describe their power are quite effective. In this case, arm could describe reach, like that their control are reaching all over the city.

[B]Editing! [/B] [editline]15th April 2012[/editline] [img]http://leet.cc/luftmap1.png[/img] You can edt everything exept red dots. Blue interiors might need quest stuff and so... (I'm still editing!)

Maybe the way the secret police force is set up is that none of them know each other, and only their handler knows the identity of each operative. There could be maybe two or three handlers that give orders and receive information from the operatives, and the handlers report directly to the city's leader. So, kind of like how the Night Mother speaks to the Listener, and the Listener talks to the other Dark Brotherhood members, the city's leader would speak directly to the Handlers, and the Handlers would then relay the orders to individual operatives. That way, even the operatives don't know who's part of the secret police force, with the operatives being super paranoid about accidentally doing something that might annoy the other operatives and end with them being jailed or something. It'd also mean that the entire system would basically fall apart if the leader of the city ever died - which, if you're going along with the vampire idea, would perhaps be an indicator that the leader is in fact immortal. I dunno, I thought it'd be funny if the secret police operatives were as paranoid about the secret police as the ordinary citizens were. Also, I just noticed when I was typing this out that the "[B]Hand[/B]lers" would also kind of work if you use the "Arm" name :v: just an idea.

I will do maps later for undercity and 2nd isle and farm area.

I have ideas for crime faction (The ones what determinate you'r bounty and what prison you go). We should have 2 crime factions in luftahraan: [B]Normal guards:[/B] 1x bounty multiplier. When caught, player goes to the prison inside the barracks. Normal citizens. [B]KGB:[/B] 5x bounty multiplier. When caught, player will be a slave inside the mines. Rich and powerfull citizens (They'll should also be part of the common crime faction, so it adds bounty to the both?) So this means when player steals from rich/powerfull citizens, he/she gets hunted by KGB. And pirate crime faction? [editline]15th April 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=oskutin;35580281][B]Editing!

[/QUOTE] [B]Done![/B] [url]http://leet.cc/5luftahraan.rar[/url] +Made the vault for the bank (needs clutter). There should be elite KGB guard protecting it.

[QUOTE=DrasarSalman;35580578]I guess you could rename the "handlers" to "fingers" and call all the members "nails". :v:[/QUOTE] Nah, leave the Handlers as they are and call the members / operatives the fingers, they're the ones who call out the lawbreakers and stuff. See, it all works! :v:

Again, if you are interested in writing or contributing any writing in custom books/art, please contact me via PM. We will be having a meeting today and next week regarding heavy changes to the organization. Please, we need a little more writers.

And who are you to organize these meetings and be the one to contact with this stuff?

Oh and I will skip the luftahraan weekly update this week. There just isn't enough to cover.

[QUOTE=Wheeze201;35583644]Forget writers, we need contributors. And who are you to organize these meetings and be the one to contact with this stuff?[/QUOTE] I even asked you guys if it was ok. We need more organization so I'm just doing what I can toget this done efficiently. No need to be an arse. In addition, I've talked to Zeldar and several others. Hell you're the guy saying we need to organize this stuff, and I'm specifically not touching your portion, thereby giving leeway. God damn. [editline]15th April 2012[/editline] Because we're nearing the point that of we don't start writing quests, we'll reach a bottle neck, and by organizing the writers we can write and incorporate quests much more efficiently. Two writers will not get everything done, and there are a lot people that would love to contribute but don't have CK. I even apologized last page saying I'm sorry if I'm overstepping.

I have nothing agains it aslong it's about mainquest and other questlines.

[QUOTE=oskutin;35583748]I have nothing agains it aslong it's about mainquest and other questlines.[/QUOTE] The plan I've been discussing with people is that the writing department is going to split into different departments, then we can have people do quest lines, NPC dialogue, log info, back stories, lore, and custom arts and books all in circular development. Each department is going to have a head, and Zeldar will relay all finalized and finished quest lines, etc to you guys. That way if one person can't write, we don't get bottlenecked because someone else will be with them in their department. That's the gist anyway.

looks to me like vizard knows what he's doing back to editing this week :)

[QUOTE=Wheeze201;35583644]Forget writers, we need contributors. And who are you to organize these meetings and be the one to contact with this stuff?[/QUOTE] Think about every survival movie ever. The guy who always fucks everything up is always the guy who says something like "Who put YOU in charge?!"

I hope you guys understand where I'm coming from here. Sorry. But you want to prevent bottlenecking but we already are bottlenecked with the lack of contributors.

Should we advertise in other forums for contributors? Or maybe we should have our own site/forum first?

[QUOTE=zeldar;35584701]Should we advertise in other forums for contributors? Or maybe we should have our own site/forum first?[/QUOTE] If, and whenever we need a forum, I know a really good web dev who could make us a forum.

Make the Chief Guard use Oblivions "STOP RIGHT THERE CRIMINAL SCUM" line.

[QUOTE=proch;35584938]Make the Chief Guard use Oblivions "STOP RIGHT THERE CRIMINAL SCUM" line.[/QUOTE] At lest make him say it using commas like "STOP RIGHT THERE... criminal scum" instead of "STOPRIGHTTHERECRIMINALSCUM".

So do we need a forum? If we do, I have a guy that's willing. <-- (The disagree came from this, not below) [editline]15th April 2012[/editline] Alright people, today's first weekly meeting with the writing staff has been very fruitful. We have been able to begin crucial bits of organization. The meeting has concluded with some points: [quote] We are nearing the point in modding that the editors have nearly finished with the interiors and exteriors of Luftahraan, and quest lines need to be fleshed out. The writing staff of Luftahraan has expanded to have several more members, and we are now able, and are in need, of having more writers. The writing staff is divided into separate departments based on factions and quest lines, with each department having a head, who will coordinate with editors in order to have the best version of quests. The writing staff and its departments will be following a form of circular development with flexible times. Circular development simply means that each department will start with say, the basic quest line, then the next period of time, will work on dialogue, and so forth. This will ensure that quest lines will be written even when one person is unable to do so. There also will be weekly meetings which will allow department heads to coordinate with each other more flexibly.

great idea!

Hello, sorry to bother you all but i would just like to say i think this is absoloutley terriffic. The effort you have all put into this project is fenominal. I've only known about this for a few days, but i have gone from the first page of the thread and read every post (just to know all the gossip ;P) from start to finish and i am just gobsmacked. I will continue to follow the progress of the mod, but unfortunatley, i do not have a good enough PC for Skyrim, so i wont be able to download (or contribute to) Luftahraan. I wish i could contribute in any way, but i see that as a very low possibilty. Once again, i apologise for any bother, im just giving my feedback to this wonderful project. Well done, good sirs.

Tiredness seems to be getting to me... Perfect, i'd love to do some quest writing. I could finally put some of my ideas to good use :D
