Hello!

I'm trying to recreate Waterdeep and Undermountain in 3d walkable form, and it is in early stages. Is there anything obvious I have messed up? Also I'll eventually post a vid going down the layers to the Mad Wizard's Layer, as it SEEMS the entire dungeon layout "drifts" southward. is that correct? maybe I should re-arrange things to all fit under the city or mountain?

I totally want to share it for free on itchio when it's done as a handy DM tool, under the name Project Ultradeep.

I'm not sure how to show images in this post, so:

A short video of walking around in 1st person in wireframe mode in Blender, for classic vibes:

I love DnD, especially Waterdeep and Undermountain, and I am trying to find the right online community to share my passion with. Anyway, feedback desired!

WOW! Welcome.

"These things also I have observed: that knowledge of our world is
to be nurtured like a precious flower, for it is the most precious
thing we have. Wherefore guard the word written and heed
words unwritten and set them down ere they fade . . . Learn
then, well, the arts of reading, writing, and listening true, and they
will lead you to the greatest art of all: understanding."

Damn, everytime I turn around, I find someone who has just gone over the top for some aspect of the realms.

Alavairthae, may your skill prevail

Thanks for the support, guys! I recently made a chill long video going over the current progress of #ProjectUltradeep, where I show how I'm concepting the art, show off some gameplay, etc. It's long, but it has chapters for skipping around to get an idea where the project is.

Blender is indeed classic, for all its weirdness.
But if you want big and walkable, perhaps the output format should be something like Quake2 or openDarkEngine (Thief/System Shock/Ultima Underworlds)?
