Hey everyone, I got some more news about this project.

A few days ago, I started working on Crystal Crusades once more. And since then, much has been completed. I simply needed a little break to get my motivation up.

So the current plan is:

• Release a beta to all the testers in the next couple weeks. This beta will contain all content except for level 9. PM or reply here if you'd like to help me with testing, it'd be much appreciated.
• Fix bugs, plan out lvl 9 and work on Ballad of a Bloodline DX during the testing phase. I really want to take my time to get all the main chunk of the quest nice and smooth (unlike NTAEL )
• Once I've got the lvl 9 plan down and the main part of the quest is tested, I'll work towards getting it finished.
• Then more testing obviously

So the most optimistic release date would be by the end of the summer. The most realistic would be the end of this year, knowing my occasional breaks.

But man, I'm starting to feel really proud of all the content in NTCC. I hope you guys will love walking through the lands of Krelaila as much as I do.

Let's throw in some screenshots to make the update a little less boring:

Huh, I thought you gave up on BBDX... WOOT!!!

Anyway, good luck with the rest of the quest!

[Twilight Knight]

Thank you guys!

 

I was about to give up on BBDX, because it had one major 2.10 > 2.5 bug: all strings were messed up. But I got that mostly fixed by now. I also like how Eppy is LPing it again so I have some more feedback on how to improve this quest, however I also want to be careful not to effect the quest's fun qualities. It's a difficult project basically.

I loved playing the preview to this quest way back. I might have to dig up the old Z Quest to play this when it comes out ^ _ ^ This is one of those truly unique quests.

If you're still looking for testers, I'd be happy to help out. Regardless, good luck with the remaining part of the quest!

@strike: Then I might have good news for you. Instead of digging the old demo up, you could play the new demo which I plan to release soon. It will be the same content but highly improved. Also thanks for the comment!

 

@DBDjango: Sure thing!

If you need any more testers, I'm open!
