The old trade road area?

Don't want to complain, but does any one know if the old trade road area will ever get anything done to it, or if it will ever get finished, it just seems like a bit of a waste of an area. I do understand that the tech people are working on ns4 but it just seems a shame to leave this bit of the world unfinished.

LMAO

It makes me chuckle when I read posts like this...after everything that has been revamped in the past 7 months, there's always the odd post saying, "well, what about THIS?"

Pros and I are pretty tired after all the renovations made over the fall and winter. A lot of time, effort, and testing went into all the updates...just peek at the Tweaks and Mod Updates forum and look at the thread at the top to see all that was done.

The area off of the Old Trade Route and the Perian Hills Tower are the two big unfinished things on my list of To Do's for the mod. However, with the summer here, and NWN 2 coming in the fall, your dev teams from NS 3.5 and 4 are teaming up and working on laying down something special for Neversummer. Thus we'll have less time devoted to whipping up new things for NS 3.5. Keep your fingers crossed...we'll see what I can whip up over the summer.

LOL So much good stuff has been added that people don't know about, since they're just so locked into their same rote pattern of "make new toon, gear up off a mule, level to 40, then repeat..."

Just to summarize all the areas that have been completely revised or added since October 2005:

Neversummer: Sewers
Tul'Gik's Cave
Perian Hills
Falme
Buccaneer's Den
D'hara
Melencia
Enchanted Forest
Giant Mountain & surrounding area
Undermountain & Mithril Mines area
Elemental Planes
Elemental Shrine
Halls of the Dead (Lich King)
Twilight
Starfall Mountain

Off the top of my head, thats ~86 completely new and revised maps...and I'm lowballing that number...
