Hello community,

before I came to the conclusion to bring this project to life I was searching for already existing projects and got some results. I contacted these creative and motivated people to join their project, contributed to one of them but the conversations among each other became fewer and I retired.

In July 2017 I started to mess around with some Silkroad objects inside Unreal Engine 4. Through the help of a friend we managed to import the heightmaps into UE4. After we talked to each other about the workflow we decided to switch over to Unity 3d since my friend and coder is more familiar to C#. I put the effort to start with texturing all the terrains from Eastern China to Taklamakan, which took alot of work but also finally brought us were we are today. It was also a mess to write a decisive shader for the materials, some of them are alpha or originally animated.

In September 2017 I was streaming for the first time to let people be part of the progress within this project. I prefer to let people see the changes whenever they like to instead of just reading them weekly or else.

In November 2017 I opened a website for more details about the content and gameplay which is currently offline. I'm going to put it back online asap.
During the past fews months I actually never started to doubt on this project, it is more sad many fan projects cancelled their work after a certain time. But I also know it's hard to work on this.

Without being conceited I'm proud enough to see how the community and supporters grew with the project. The world map itself is also almost done. Afterwards we can finally head over to the technical stuff and put all the effort in it.

Not bad, but you should focus on the actual gameplay before investing so much time into the map IMO.

Dang, someone spent some serious time there ^^

Design is very nice, but have you had a chance to upload the program 3D design?

Of course, I'm also spending time taking notes for the gameplay. Especially the character control like WASD, jump, swim. The environment also has to match to the gameplay. If you'll be able to fly around on mounts for example you need to take care the environment got solutions for the upper overview (look upon the map from top), navmesh and collision as well. But I can say the above mentioned character control system is firmly scheduled.

I spend a few days with my friend importing the original heightmap into Unreal Engine 4, we had to connect each part within Photoshop and export it back to raw to import it properly into UE4. Afterwards I started to add the ground plan of Jangan (walls + center) and did a bit of terrain painting. We already had done the heightmap part so we switched over to Unity, I started to take my time texturing the terrain within Jangan while my friend was coding shaders for the texture materials for the object files. He has done a pretty good job, did a lot of overwork and went further on for terrain connection which was necessary to combine larger areas.
Every section is in different project currenty. We will unite them as soon as each environment from Jangan to Taklamakan is completed.

Thanks alot

What's your concern? I'm working around with Blender and 3ds Max, increasing vertices of the objects and replace textures in Substance Painter and Photoshop soon. Animation will also be done in Blender since I'm way more familiar to it than 3ds Max.

3d, animation, rigging - Maya
Textures - Substance
Coding within Unity (Scripts, Shaders)

It's hard to work on this on my own but I'll continue this project. Beside I have to replace everything in there because of copyrights, otherwise Joymax or JC Planet is in the right to sue me. As long as I don't publish anything officially right now I'll be fine but the project keeps going, that's the plan. :o

Keep it up. The design is awesome and I would like to see how this goes :)

Great to see you here, i know you are putting a lot of work into this!
Good luck in the future, i will keep supporting you until the end.

Glad you almost don't notice the difference to the original ;)
