I have one question...how will people get to these islands? Will they be close enough that you can see them from land, or will there be some type of teleport?
I liked in MOrrowind there were travelers who would take you places, and I don't know how hard that would be to make...Sounds like you are moving along nicely...

not real hard. i'm not really a scripter, but I think I could do that myself. a boat even that you activate, and it takes you to an X Marker Heading on the Island. to see, just go to the CSWiki under the scripting portal. simple OnActivate
I've never played Morrowind, though, so its hard to tell exactly what you mean.

You cound not fast rravel in Morrowind, so to get from city to city you had to use travelers who would charge you 50 gold to travel. It was basically an option in the dialog. I think clicking on a boat is even better, and you could have a NPC standing next to the boat who would look like the sailor.

If you could try to get me that island tonight that would be great...I have a lot of ideas on paper and can't wait to get started...
I am thinking about doing some huts that I have a mod for and making them on fire, with a BUNCH of dead villagers in the roads and bandits going wild...
It can still be a small island, I just want to try this out. Thanks

i kept a copy, as attachments from ThunderBird are copies by default.
all i can really do is heightmap more islands, though. I'll do what I can.

cool...I found the island and am going to start to work on it.,. It is pretty time consuming, but when I have something playable I will send it to you to test out...

Alright...I have got a lot of it done, but there is a LOT more to do. Here is what I have so far (about 90 minutes)
4 huts with flames 4 hut interiors with flames trees around the huts dirt ground in center of huts a few barrels and scattered junk
Here is what I am doing next: adding items to hut interiors adding more junk to huts area more flora and vegetation in area animals and NPCs with bandits killing everything
Later I am going to: start working on other area of island possibly put in a cave add stones around island that look cool add a field of crops ???this will take a while ;D

ugh, high school takes up too much time
