Hi. In Polish part of community I proposed to make Esenthel Engine tech demo movie like this:

Some of users wrote that it's a good idea so with another 2 users: Seba and Barthap we want to do this.

Actually we finished model pack which we will use in presentation. Now we are going to make map in World Editor tool. Maybe someone wants to help us? I would be nice when somebody make for us some music. Of course I can find some free music but I think that when sb do this it will be better.

Now I want to show you some screens from World Editor (this low value of fps is because I've got very old computer ):

Great idea
looks awesome xD

i'm not much of an artist, but maybe i'll be able to make some effects like a clip with a guy shooting a fireball to show the particle effects? Sadly i'm almost as bad at coding as graphics, but ill try to come up with something.
then you can take a look at it, and decide if you want it or not?

anyway again: Great idea we really need people to notice this engine and see how great it is
*thumbs up for Harry*

Very good. If you want help, write.

If you want you can make with us map in World Editor. I'll send you model pack with password and all need data. Of course if you want and know that you can make sth. Maybe you show why you can be useful ?

The main idea is present all most important features on one map which we want to make in WE. We don't want to make everything on another maps. So this guy with firebolt shoul be in this map

EDIT: The newest screen which presents shape of the island. Tomorrow we're going to put more textures on it and maybe some objects Map is very big. I hope that not too big What do you think about it?

Very good idea!

I can help you, if you want my help: I'm not an expert modeller, I'm a basic coder and I play the piano pretty well, although I have problems recording it to my pc (However, if I can come up with some song, I can always let someone else record it for me. My cousin has his own recording studio).

May I suggest letting Esenthel know about this? Not that he wouldn't approve (I think), but perhaps he's making new stuff (that we don't know about) at the moment that would fit well in a promotional video.

Esenthel knows that we do it but I don't know what he's thinking Maybe if he's making sth interesting he could tell us about it hm?

With the the music I thought about this page: http://incompetech.com/ here is a lot of free music. But if you can let this to someone maybe will we try this?

New screen: http://img245.imageshack.us/img245/273/scrtc.jpg

Two new screens:

Nice
this is really awesome xD you are doing a great job on this thing

you should also have some clips with water! i think the water looks awesome in this engine
and maybe in rainy weather or something? effects is what people notices the most

This what you see is an island so around it will be a water I don't think about rain but in movie you will see sun rising with orange horizont and stars with moon on the night.

Cool
like fast forward the day/night cycle, and have moving clouds and so on?
it would be awesome

Yes, everything will be in this. We want to show the most important graphics, and physics features and some tools like ME and WE.

Ogre's village:

looks nice
but it would be cool if you could make it a little more... gloomy, or dirty?
it is a ogre village after all

anyway i think you are doing a great work on this project
keep it up guys xD

Village with old tower Map is almost finish

EDIT: I want to ask you which font do you want to see in description of the effect in clip. I'm looking for sth simple. Maybe sb knows the name of Esenthel logo font? I will be usefull too. And when you've got freetime please look at http://incompetech.com/ and paste links with your propositions of music to clip or maybe you know another better pages with free music.

The map is looking very good!

For the music: http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/

As for the fonts, I'll give it a look.
