I would definitely be interested in this. Please let me know if I can be of help
Malte, if you're still willing to help out, there is a major part of this project that needs to be developed eventually: the world map. Basically, my goal is to reproduce as much of the LBT world as completely and accurately as possible, but I don't have any maps drawn yet.
For now, what we really need is a map of the Great Valley. The rest of the world can come later, but anyone willing to work on any part of the map is much appreciated!
If anyone is willing to look over the movies and figure out, as accurately as possible, the relative locations of as many places in as much detail as possible, that would be awesome! We can make the game map as detailed as we can figure out, so the more detail you can gather, the better off we'll be. Relative locations of major regions (the Great Valley, the desert, the Valley of Mists, Big Water, etc.) are important, as is the geography of each region (aka. what sorts of land formations are in each part of the Great Valley, where is the volcano from LBT 2 in comparison to, say, Littlefoot's nest, Ducky's nest? Where was the "hole in the great wall" in LBT 2, relative to these other locations?
Again, the Great Valley is the most important priority for now. Other stuff can come later.
I understand that the movies aren't always consistant, but I'm sure we can figure something out. I know this won't be an easy task but if anyone is willing to help, I can focus more on programming and we can get this project closer to reality that much sooner.
The more details of the LBT world that people are able to figure out, the more genuine our world map will be. Anyone who wants to work on this, please, feel free!
I realize that figuring the exact location of everything in every movie is impossible. What I'm looking for is a map that lays out as much detail of the LBT world as possible, with as many elements as possible, in logical places that would allow each movie's events to be possible on our world map.
In order to simplify this task for now, I intend to first design a small-scale version of this project, taking place entirely in the Great Valley. If we can get that working, we can move onto a larger-scale game. That being said, we need detailed maps of the Great Valley that allow every event from every movie to be possible. Who's up for it?
Feel free to draw maps in any way you want, as long as you have some way to send it to me eventually. B)
If we can get started on the maps, I can do some programming in the meantime.
