Project Cross-Collaboration Is Wonderful
Scythifuge posted a short update to The Savage Empire Remake’s Facebook page today:
I just sent some sprites from the Avatar’s House over to Agentorangeguy for his Ultima VI project!
When I started the project, I had hoped to accomplish a lot on my own. While I have drawn a bunch of sprites with little experience to start, I have realized that cross-collaboration is really going to help these Exult-based projects along.
This is nice to see, collaboration between projects to deliver better results all around.
Scythifuge also has a request of sorts:
I am ever questing to complete my Origin collection. I am desperately seeking the pouch of coins from the Ultima I re-release. If anyone has info on how I can obtain these coins please let me know!
If you can help him out with this, either drop a comment here or hit up the project’s Facebook page.
Good going! Wish more projects could or would collaborate.
The only real hope of getting these coins… is to buy a complete ’86 Ultima I from Ebay really. This would cost an arme, but there aren’t much other avenue left.
Getting the coin pouch alone is extremely unlikely since people will generally keep them in the box. I’ve known one person who managed to grab one but that was a long time ago. People selling the coins separately are unlikely, and really : even then it would still cost an arme too because these are even rarer than the UW1 rune pouch
I also love to see the spirit of collaboration at work!
Remember, if you have assets that you want to share with the community at large, especially things like sprites, music, and models that can be used in a variety of projects, we have a spot for that! The Digital Lycaeum is designed to host assets for use in multiple Ultima-themed projects!
(Yes, it can be a little confusing the first time, but if you need help getting a new download ready to go let me know.)
The stuff for the Avatar’s house is going to be used in the all-scripted intro 😀 I actually got everything on the intro done up until the avatar’s companions come out of the moongate but that part of the map was corrupted. I just have to fix that, and put the new stuff in the Avatar’s house to make it look more like the U6 intro.
