One step closer to sea battles? Or viking style raids up and down the sword coast?

It's part of our eventual plans to make a central system to run overland maps and the worldmap server.
But sea battles won't likely be run this way. More likely to be sent to an encounter area which consists of boats bumped up against each others for your pirate-slaying needs.

MS has several sea battle areas, at least six ship/ocean areas, and a huge scripted network of ships that provide realistic transport RP opportunities.
I just love how they look like they are dynamically moving.

Could you steer one of those boats to some kind of sea-port tailor and give it big breasts and tarty makeup? Aye, she's a lady of the sea all right!

Long standing dream of mine to make the internal transit between the MS islands more immersive. I am not sure how I would accomplish it. thoughts?

I've asked Zelk if there is work on going to get this accomplished, if there's not, I'm going to start it.
There are a couple of projects that already have at least proofs of concept and working modules.
See

and
http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=NW ... ail&id=330
You can download haks and modules to see it in action.
I'll assume you're on board Castano
Literally.

All I can imagine is some sort of horrible ocean travel map al la the Indiana Jones map with possible encounters as you travel with your party in some little animated boat along a red line. Kinda like our airship ride actually...
