Progress is going strong on Belfalas' west coast: Brazen is working on some smaller islands around the tip of Belfalas near Methrast, one even has a fancy castle on it! Also in Methrast things are progressing and about wind up. Focus this week clearly lay once more on the harbor district which now got a new set of landing piers.
Further to the north we haveLenthir Mistad Lostfalls which is coming along fabulously, just check out the screenshot to get an impression!

The progress in Moria this week can only hardly be grasped in it's entirety, so I am only naming a few of the current construction sites:
Tolfalas (In Progress) - Lead: @Tyranystrasz- Despot and a good bunch of Artists have made another fantastic step of progress in the vertical connector hall: The ceiling has been placed and the massive cranes are being added as we speak.
- Bender with support of Fire and again a lot of Artists has done amazing progress on the priests chambers next to the hall of Aulë. Go check it out, if you don't get lost on your way there, you'll surely loose any orientation inside the priests chambers...
- Ivan has finished his training hall, along with some residences for the soldiers along the sides of the main hall.
- Wraith continues working on the massive Goblin cave.
- Beside that a massive numbers of corridors and other smaller places.
No progress this week.
Valley of Erui (In Progress) - Lead: @Mandos
Mandos is moving up the valley of the Erui with his voxelling, slowly but steadily. Meanwhile it's the Artists who take care of building all the farmhouses and their respective fields.
Texture Development
@Eriol_Eandur has submitted a custom texture for the Armorstands in Moria, which will make look skeletons even more realistic and creepier...
Plugin Development
Animation Plugin (In Progress) - Dev: @Ivan1pl
Rank UpdatesNo progress this week...?
Plotbuild Plugin (Implemented) - Devs: @Eriol_Eandur & @Ivan1pl
