I am a german Hobby Gamer, so my english is not quite good, but you will understand what i want to say :slight_smile:
This Project is a Weekend Hobby Project, because i have a family, work, friends, my lovly wife and my son <3

For the project i will need 1-3 other modders they want to create a new World around the setting of Grim Dawn. The best would be german language modders, for best communication.

But enough talked about me time to show you what i have planned. This are PLANNED features, i am not sure what a can realize or is possible with the modding tools, but i want to try to get everything into the mod.

Took crate six years working fulltime to create grim dawn. You want to double the size working only part time on the weekends. When do you plan on having it complete, 2030?

Some decent ideas, but maybe choose one aspect to work on at a time and see how it goes.

where did i say that is double the size o.O

4

No where! But it does sound like a huge project to be undertaking with 3 other modder’s on the weekends only.

I plan on building a landscape of the world in which my novel is set.

Some of what you are wanting to do only crate are the ones that can decide.
