Im not sure if this is the right place for this and as always please remove the post if it's crossing any lines. Yes this is blatent self advertising!...lol...But hey I'm just one guy with one big dream.

WorldWorks Games has just finished its second monster release! "DungeonWorks" www.worldworksgames.com/dungeon.html is now available for sale for only $15.00 and is being touted as "The Last Dungeon You'll Ever Buy!" .There are over 40 items packed away in this 3-D model set and once you see it I think it will blow you away! Its already getting great reviews. Check it out!

Wow. Those look pretty cool. I'd really like to see "Caveworks" when it's released.

Out of curiousity, are the models more or less scaled to 1"=5' (d20) scale? It was kind of hard to tell from pictures.

Scale

Thanks for the kind words Kengar! The entire set is based on a 1 inch grid so it is optimzed for standard old school 1*1/2 inch miniatures or any of your standard Warhammer sized miniatures. The benefit of the system is that you can scale it up or down depending on your printer model. In future I may bring out a special "clickbase" scale set depending on demand. As far as upcoming releases are concerned theres a bit of a voting war starting on the forums at WorldWorks. I've decided to leave it up to the users as to what is created next. Thanks again!

Please, please add the ability to shut the sound off on your site, or just remove the sound if you can't.

When you're at work and you need to have the sound on to hear email and such, but you want to do a little surfing, sudden loud music is extremely unhelpful.

Sound

LOL...Got caught surfing at work did you. The sound on the DungeonWorks page is a very short stream intended to give that little extra bit of atmosphere and impact. It's NOT looped and it ends rather quickly. After all, its not like you'll be visiting the page everyday. Its a tool for impact and it's fairly non-intrusive. Some people love flash with sound some people hate it. If it has a purpose I love it! Sorry for getting you in trouble

P.S.
Just a friendly tip but if your going to surf on your bosses time ....TURN THE SOUND DOWN DUDE...lol

Actually, in my case it woke up my sleeping fiancee. I'm self-employed and work from home. I was more concerned for others who surf at work.

It's extremely easy in Flash to add a little mute button.

Just a tip on creating web sites... DON'T FORCE YOUR VISITORS TO HEAR A SOUND BECAUSE YOU THINK IT'S COOL DUDE... lol

 

[Denny]

Ouch

I'm truly sorry I woke up your fiancée with my tiny little flash promo. Yes, I am well aware that you can place a mute button on a flash incidental but the bit is so pathetically short there is absolutely no reason to do so (Unless of course I wanted to please one bitchy person such as yourself). I've had nothing but positive feeback about the piece until you. I've been a professional graphic designer/web designer for over 10 years and while I appreciate the advice...Bite me with your attitude! Grow up and get off your high horse.

Peace out DUDE

Sounds like we have similar feelings about each others' attitudes.

And with 15 years graphic and multimedia design, 9 of it on the web, it simply appears that we have different opinions of what is and isn't a good idea. From reading these boards I know that there are a ton of people here who surf them from work and have heard them complain about sound on sites on many occasions, and so was merely making a friendly professional suggestion. You know, so that that big work-surfing crowd would actually take the time to look at your material rather than closing the window the second it started making a loud sound. In order to improve your marketing effort. Y'know, advice from someone who's been on these boards for nearly 3 years to an apparent newbie?

Just some friendly advice that I couched from a personal perspective, after which I simply returned your mocking response with one of my own.

Just trying to help you here. Dude.

Stop bickering, please.

Denny, I'm not sure if you know it, but you probably just lost a lot of sales - mine amongst them. When someone gives advice to a professional publisher, the thing to do is say "thanks, I'll consider it." Calling someone bitchy and telling them to bite you and grow up is less than impressive. It's not what I especially want to hear from someone I was about to give money to. If you're going to plug your site here, please adhere to the rules of the site, and that includes not insulting other people.

And for what it's worth, the noise bothered me, too.

Sorry about the my side of the bickering.
