Here are some iron-cube samples. I lightend it up a bit. Tried to make it more clear :). As for earth. I think it will be hard to create a chasm or slot canyon because its not something separate. All the objects so far where separate objects. The presence of something. A chasm or canyon defines itse...

I'll look into it. Its not rough ore, unfortunatly the current icon is much too dark. It should give a shiny metal cube look . I could make a 3D ingot shape.

Hmm.. looks much darker on this screen than the one at home

... As I recall, there was some sort of a consensus that it would be too much like SoM. ... I am ofcourse reasoning on the idea that the game world is loosly based on concpets of early console RPGs like SoM, so if the game is called 'The Mana World'... I can hardly image it can be too much like SoM...

Here is a setup for iron.. I went for the bolted look. I'll redo the snow later on this week.

well, if you want to stay close to the spirit of TSoM, you must use cannons!

I agree, a postoffice would be awesome. Ofcourse you can have in-game mail system or use the board... but hey, we're role-playing here! Besides not everyone in the game is on the board. A post-office fitst perfectly in the virtual world concept. The only important thing would be that you actually ne...

I was wondering, will there be travel by cannon like in TSOM? It should

Indeed.. I think I made it too complex. The goal is clarity not as-close-to-real-life-as-possible image. I till make another attempt with a simpler design. Maybe then I can put more accent on the borders. Thanks len for putting them together like that. It does show that I need to get some more consi...

Ice... was quite difficult to tweak. Note sure about it yet...

Well, I'll try to make some proposals for iron. In the mean while I tinkered nature together. The problem with that every magic discipline has a color which is the same as the element means that the graphic in the icon usualy has somewhat the same color. So, should I use the same color in the icon a...

Hey Nyxl, I like it! Its good somewhat sad song. Maybe a fallen kingdom, or when you are lost. Maybe a temple... Some minor details: - The high-pitched 'beep' is, to me, a bit too technogy.. you might maybe want to replace that with shimes, bells or something. - The beep also doesn't work too well w...

Okay, yes, you are right ofcourse. Maybe I was a bit harsh. I guess my opinion is that I think its a bit too chaotic (most of them its hard to find the melody), and I miss some bass. I can't say much more until I hear a 'production quality' rendering.

I thought the dwarven mine was the worst :) its nice for a while... but not after 2 minutes... my goodness. I still hear it in my darkest dreams... :cry: However Hostaria was indeed the best. Maybe it has to do with the fact that there are no trumpets in it ;). I do think the instruments should be r...

Hmm... Well... I like the use of instruments, the variation. However Is it me, or does it sound like the instruments are all computer generated. I miss a 'real' touch of it, its too shrill (edit: was shallow). I miss the low tones. The trumpet should be improved too... it hurts my ears... other than...
