Question: How do you take the far out views of homes?

[CottonEyeJoe104]

I seen a few people show their 18x18s, castles, keeps, etc and they have a super far out zoomed view in the 2d client. How is this done? Please don't tell me the only way is the Enhanced Client, or whatever it is called these days -- I'm too old school to go back to that, but I'd love to share the layout of my castle(s), for others to take ideas from.

As far as I know the only way to do it in CC is to take several pictures and stitch them together.

Only way I have found over the years.

 

[CottonEyeJoe104]

Ohh man, that is brutal. lol. I don't know how my house looks in EC, but I assume not anywhere near as nice.

 

[Kayhynn]

That's what I do - I stitch them together wheN I have time to.

Does this look horrible awful?

 

[CottonEyeJoe104]

Nah, doesn't look bad. I just don't know w/ my deco how'd it look in EC... I need somone w/ EC to come look and take a pic, so I don't waste time DL the client for a fail lol.

give me shard and co-ords, set the castle public for a couple of hours and I'll do it.

You sir are a great man. It'll probably be a few days, I want to get the final touches done before I do. Castle going to be public museum, just gotta find how to make it safe for both me and my guests (its in fel).

 

[Petra Fyde]

You sir are a great man.

I hope not, I'm sure my husband would have noticed by now. We've been married almost 37 years.

My apologies! When you wake up and make posts, sometimes you don't look at avatars/signatures and it can lead to woopsie daisies. I do apologize! And your husband is one lucky guy!

 

[Kayhynn]

I can also come take pictures in 2D and patch together images for you.

 

[CottonEyeJoe104]

@Petra Fyde and @Kayhynn Whenever you two are ready, I can open the houses for those photos.

 

[Kayhynn]

I should be around this weekend - if things don't go wrong again.

 

[CottonEyeJoe104]

Yea np, just PM me or post here when you have time. I guess my ICQ requires a phone number to use now, which makes contact a real pain. Petra did the 3d side, which actually came out not to bad.

 

[Kayhynn]

Try using ICQ via Trillian. No phone number required (or it hasn't required one for me in the years I've been using it).

Thats how I been using it since it (trillian) came out.

 

[Kayhynn]

And it's requiring a phone number now?

 

[CottonEyeJoe104]

Yea for people to contact me. I don't know why
Some people are affected some aren't. I'm trying to deal w/ ICQ tech suport to see what is causing this. They want people to give them their cell phone numbers.

 

[Petra Fyde]

I use pidgin, for people I talk to regularly everything is as normal, it let me add CottonEyeJoe, but when I tried to message him it wanted my phone number to verify. Likewise when I tried to respond to someone last week who I hadn't heard from in a good while. I'm not willing to give out my phone number to all and sundry.

 

[Kayhynn]

I got around that by PMing a person here and getting them to authorize me to message them. Worked out okay.
