The Mine Tunnels for Wizardy 8 has been mapped out. I estimate an extra week left to get all the map markers complete before it is published.

The icons for the level 2 #Wizardry 8 spells are finished. Some of these underwent several versions until I was happy with the result. All of these are created in SVG so that they can be easily scaled between large and small sizes.

If I wasn't adding images for the #Wizardry 8 spells, I would be done the spell section by now, but manually creating these take time, and I hope the final results will be worth it. I've finished the Level 1 spells so far:

I've finished the main page for spellcasting in Wizardry 8, but I won't publish it until I've added all the spells. I just added screenshots for Acid Splash, using my own custom graphics. The game lacks icons and visual detail for spells, so I'm creating them myself for the guide.

The past two weeks have been quite eventful and the Swamp map for #Wizardry 8 is about 75% complete. If all goes well, I am hoping it will be done by next weekend.

After finishing everything for the Trynton Pagoda in #Wizardry8, I absolutely know I am going into way too much detail that is needed for these maps. Is it delaying the rest of the guide? 100% But if I suddenly lower the quality now, I know I won't be happy with it and will have to redo it later.

The Trynton Upper Branches work continues. I didn't realize how many new objects I needed to create for this map. I decided to update the round wood tables, which will be changed in the Trynton map once I am finally finished with this one. #Wizardry8

The Wizardry 8 map for Trynton Upper Branches is about 75% mapped out. I hope to have the rest of the area mapped out by the end of the week, which means it will take a few more weeks to publish.

This weekend was supposed to be spent working on the quests section for Wizardry 8, but instead, the Cemetery Retro Dungeon has been mapped out, and new introductions have been made for each of the previously released maps.

I was asked how much detail I added to the interiors of Arnika in Wizardry 8, so I figured I would share Antone's Armory.

Progress is continuing on the Arnika Map for #Wizardry8, but it is taking a long time to finish since my brain chose to add too many details.
Updates have been made to the Gameplay Tips area, and work has begun on the Quests section (which will be for those who don't want a complete walkthrough.)

The outdoor areas of Arnika have been finished for our Wizardry 8 Map, but there is still much work left to complete the interiors and underground areas.
The map window has also been increased for desktop (screen size 1080p and bigger) to improve the user experience.

All layer view showing inside buildings and underground of Arnika in #Wizardry8. This was one massive project. Maybe I went a little too detailed sometimes, but it's too late to back out now. (see inside the HLL). I think they look great even before adding textures.

Finally, everything in Arnika has been mapped out for #Wizardry8. Now, it's time for the fun part: placing textures and objects to make it look even better.

Work continues on the Trynton Map for #Wizardry8, although it is taking longer than expected as I have been adding extra details to make it look better when zoomed in.
Also working on redoing the first chapter of #MurderInTheAlps as it was changed since the guide was created.

The maps I already released for #Wizardry8 have had their textures overhauled to improve performance, and the zoom and scroll functions work much better now. I'm currently working on the Trynton map; it is definitely one of the most complex maps for this game. www.crimsontear.com/game-guides/...

This is just a quick update showing the completed northern end of the Arnika-Trynton Road map for #Wizardry8. I may be going overboard on the details. Still probably a few weeks from completing the map since I still have the Anthracax building and graveyard to place, and so, so many trees!

Sometimes, I wonder why I hesitated to make the Wizardry 8 guide, and then I make a map like this, and I wonder why I am putting myself through this.
Everything is mapped out for Arnika-Trynton Road; I "only" need to convert and add textures and objects.

Finally, I'm almost done with the map for Arnika Road for #Wizardry 8. I just need to add the markers, so I hope it will be available sometime this weekend. #fantasymap #gaming #RPG #retro 🎮🕹️
