- Custom dungeons / strongholds

Challenges and rules

Most likely there will be no challenge or rule set for this map, save for a possible treasure chest hunt. The challenge will be surviving in this dark and unforgiving world where normal everyday commodities, like wood or fresh food will scarce and hard to come by.

Progress

I have figured out how to make the bulk of the landscape with decent speed. Currently I am working on the first region (512x512x128) adding additional details like custom dungeons and treasures and uncommon vistas. After I have finished the first region (I use old region format to measure my progress, map will be Anvil) I have better understanding how long this will take to finish.

I will use quite a bit of time on the first region trying to optimize the custom dungeons and other unique and uncommon features. After I know for certain how I can do them in fast and realible way, I will move onto next regions.

Name of the map

Halls of the Underdark is a working title. It is quite general fantasy based title and it is directly taken from the Forgotten Realms. I'll try to come up with a better name for this world.
