Made0f12une Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Ah thus i've spawned an idea. How many times have you been in an underground cavern and found it COMPLETELY lit up by meesely torches? Never, right? Quite frankly i'm tired of walking around underground and feel like that theres no roof over my head when there should be many layers of rock above me. My Idea:Make a lightsource (Aka Lamps/Torches) and have that light source light up only the surrounding area How it Applies: Basicly, insted of having a torch light up the entire cavern, the farther you are away from it, the darker it gets. This could also applie to castles, large houses, ect. ect. The point of the idea: The point of this whole thing is to make a cavern feel more like a cavern. Im tired of walking around in the cavern and feel that it's roofless. This idea addes a "darkened" effect to caves and makes the entire area rather, dark. The point is not to make it hard to see, but to give you a more cave like feeling. If you have trouble finding your way in the dark or just dont like the idea, there will be an option added into the toolbar so you can turn it on/off Not only would it give caverns a cool effect, it would give Lamps/mining helmets more uses. You could bring them with you for added late (would only be noticeable with the effects on) How it looks ingame: I've provided a few edited pictures of how it would look ingame. Note: In the first image I left a spot in the corner so you can notice the difference. Heres a picture of me holding a lamp in the lumbridge caves Before After Basement of Lumbridge Castle Before Afeter Lumbridge Dining hall (Note there are no windows) Before Afeter Edgeville Dungeon Before Afeter Conclusion: The end result will be a room or cave that makes you feel like your walking around in darkness and the torches/fires/windows are actraully providing light for the surounding area. With that, you'll be able to turn the effects On or off, depending on preference. [Thanks zaaps1] Currently redoing the options (again) when I get some free time. Usually swamped with homework.

malo2 Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Thats a pretty good idea, I am always annoyed by the way there is no difference between ubderground and above ground. Lastfm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaaps1 Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 i like this idea, it makes the game much more realistic. But bear in mind however, that some people, including myself, have bad eyesigth, or just not good eyesight. It would make many people sqwint to see, so I suggest there be a button to turn it off and on. I also think that the outer area should be a little see-able, and not completely black.

Overall: i support Thanks for the idea. I was thinking about making it high detial only, but then that would force people like you to play on low detail. I like the option idea, thanks.

malo2 Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 in addition to that, there should be a fog effect, espechially in caves. The fog effect is where things get foggier as they become farther away from you. Lastfm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inferno_char Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 It is the way it is so people with bad eyesight can see. Your pics are way too dark. I'd hate it to be that way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd hate it to be that way Thats why you have the option of turning it off. If you dont like it, turn it off, if you perfer the added affect, turn it on.

Macmaster92 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Um its a good thought but it would be way, way to hard to see. And i know you made it so you can trun it off but i would rather have jagex work on somthing way more productive like a better bank or in game tools or new awsome graphic updates like the giants a dragons. Its a good thought but not a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a good thought but not a good idea. It's MEANT to be hard to see. A Cavern shouldnt be entirely lit up by a few torches. It gives me the feeling that i'm walking around with an open sky cave. Which is boring. I know I probably over-drasticly shaded some of the pictures such as the lumbridge dining hall, but the WHOLE point of this idea is to give a more cavern like feeling to the world.

Chaosphinox1 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 Perhaps this could be an option for those people that play on High Detail, kinda like the music hmm :?: Personally, for those of us who have slower computers, this would only slow the loading time of Runescape. #-o But, otherwise, I support.

deathlord92000 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 I like the idea, personally, but I believe it wouldn't work so well with the current lighting in some rooms. Perhaps they could add some others to make up for the darker rooms such as the dining hall. Maybe you could add a slight yellow-ish glow to the rooms lit by a fireplace or torches? You might want to change the text that is displayed on the screen to its normal brightness. The split private chat and the options displayed in the top left-hand corner of the screen.
