Will do. I'm making sure to include as many unusual features as possible into them so that it will be more realistic when using the flight system and more appropriate for representing astral travel.
Ramas - That would be wonderful! Please let me know when it's ready. 8^)

A great way to improve the scene of the Astral plane is to use the Arcane Space placeables or a unique tileset to add floating bits of land and such. I'm working on a tileset to represent the time vortex currently. It wouldn't take much to alter my vortex tiles into astral ones. The biggest diference is the sky which is black in the vortex but it could easily be changed to silver for astral. Everything else works pritty good and the portals (ie doors) are nearly identical to astral gateways. You're most welcome to use them once I'm done creating them. (Estimated two weeks until fully completed.) So how about it?
Thanks. Gith and the like are part of my eventual plan, though I probably won't actually add it to this little mod. I will make an announcement when I get to that part of my main module series, though...
looks great. would be better with some gith, perhaps one of those astral thingies that can cancel magic and devour things in astral form., maybe a floating ship or two (also gith) and a few portals, but all spread out over a large area. _________________________ __________________________________________________

I was going for a more "traditional D&D"-style astral. (The "Silver Sky", as it's sometimes called...) But I will check out MTS3 and see what its like.
An interesting concept. As for suggestions, for astral travel, I've always preferred a "starfield" background. I don't know if this fits your vision of the astral plane but a good example is in MTS3 (Mines of twin summit) by Q. Your flying example in this environment would be very dramatic. _________________________ "In life, one and one don't make two. One and one make one."

Okay, I added a couple of screenshots. I'm afraid there really isn't much to see, though. The "Astral Plane" as I have it in this mod is just a large empty area, but the images do show the CEP "flying" phenotype I used to simulate traveling through the weightless void.
(Please note I'm not mucking about with "astral bodies" or anything like that. This module is assuming physical travel through the astral...)
Image? I'd love to see how astral plane travel works visually, perhaps with screenshots of the process. _________________________ __________________________________________________
