Tiny Glade Timelapse of Riterra

[@hyenaholicproductions9033]

Right now people are building like, one witches cottage in their glade, or a mansion, when with the increased size they could be building a whole town.

[@onyxiaowl]

Exactly, sadly people are scared it’s not big enough of a playing area. Meanwhile I’m trying to show that there is enough space to build an entire town of sorts. And I didn’t use every piece of space completely so you can build even more if wanted to.

[@hyenaholicproductions9033]

@@onyxiaowl Just for the record though, your 'slums' could use a few more chimneys and those laundry decorations on the windows. A light or two to make the shadows deeper at night... Other than that, this timelapse is great at making me want to get the game.

[@onyxiaowl]

There are lanterns, just can't see it really from the angles I showed. Also found the chimneys to not fit the vibe I was going for. And adding windows didn't fit either, there is clutter just, again not visible in the video.

This is not only impressive, but also extremely entertaining and wonderful!! Good job, I'm showing this to my friends ^^

[@diplopanda]

I remember watching the beginning of this before I left for the day, but now I got the chance to sit down and watch the entirety of it and I can say, I'm absolutely obsessed (: Well done with it~! 💛

[@onyxiaowl]

Thank you 😊

[@private1177]

[@onyxiaowl]

Yup, totally without issues...

[@aldyshinwa]

Impressive build n of course your creativity 👍

[@breadandicecream]

this is what im talking about!!! im so gonna use this for mapping out towns for my DnD sessions

[@onyxiaowl]

There is also a top down photo mode, so it makes it even easier 😉

[@Indian_gae_boii]

I'm also so excited for full release to get the bigger area to build a whole town

[@henryvaughan7283]

They need to add biomes, sheep’s are commonly found in like, almost every biome so it would be cool to see it (Maybe Addaxs for desert biomes, etc..

[@onyxiaowl]

There are 5 types of glades, summer, autumn, flowery, olden and winter, but I wouldn’t necessarily call it biomes.

[@bolicob]

Looks like a DnD type town lol. Im gonna do something like this too

[@onyxiaowl]

I also eventually want to make a D&D campaign based on the story, so had that in mind while building it, so I would say you’re right XD.

[@suneater_zeef050]

awesome!!!

[@noxlotl_]

This is so cool! How does one get early access? im so jealous lol >.

[@onyxiaowl]

I just happen to just be very lucky and get asked to help test out the game while the developers are working on the last stretch of the game before full release.

[@jeanneosecour]

how do you make such a time lapse?

[@onyxiaowl]

I went into photo mode and then just undid all actions until I had a clean glade, then just redid everything while screenrecording it with obs.

[@velvet3784]

I wish I could try it

[@onyxiaowl]

The demo is still out now, so you can at least try it that way and full game releases on Monday (September 23rd) so it isn’t long to wait for full release.

[@neiroose]

Damn thats a big town , how'd you do the timelapse thing? havent really searched how to so i figured id just ask lol

[@nessa-parmentier]

​@@onyxiaowllast time i did that my game crashed and my save got corrupted D: (and that was just with the demo size area) Maybe went back too fast but damn. Hope it's less risky to do that now

[@LaurArt_UK]

Amazing!! Any tips for planning your build? (I'm personally interested in how you decide on the layout)

[@onyxiaowl]

Honestly, I had no idea what I wanted to do at first, just knew I wanted to have a castle on a hill in a corner. To keep it simple, I just made the house in the middle with about the size of the demo circle and just build from there. As I continued, i thought of what needed to be in a town and continued on from that. So not sure if I’m the right person to ask this to 😅. Probably recommend starting small and then go bigger. Lastly go in for the details such as lanterns, flags, “decorations” etc.

[@jylemonempire1531]

So no villagers? Just you and building? 😂

[@onyxiaowl]

Yes, it’s like a village that got abandoned very suddenly. The lights and ovens are on but no one is home. Which is the appeal for most of the players, but it can also not appeal to another group of people.
