THE KING "SAMYUKTA"

..... Very bad battle between kings samyukta raat and terijo jaak. They are fighting for what, we should go back for few hundred years to know that. Progenitors of the king Samyukta had been a battle with the King Terijo's progenitors. In that whoever lose have to obey the king who wins.

Samyukta's progenitors was defeated by the Terijo's progenitor's conspiracy. Because of that they demanded their progeny, whenever they feel like to rule the Samyukta's constituency.

Now Terijo wants to rule Samyukta's constituency. But everyone knows he is a very bad, arrogant and sorcerer. So, Samyukta not ready to give his constituency and his people to him.

Terijo got angry and he started to make them suffer by his sorcery mean while he caught Samyukta's people and kept into cavern. Samyukta knows that, no one can beat him without power. At last he got extra power by hard battle training.

Finally......

wait for updation.

Username: chirag-creations

This is the very first time that we're participating in ARTTWAR and we're hoping to do and
learn the very best from this.

Our Indian culture is very rich and diverse and the fact that we have not many games or comics that have a fictional root from India, We've decided to create our own game concept and character which is completely fictional and has a traditional touch to it. We're Hoping to come out with a good output and we wish the very best to all the other teams!

Synopsis:

Rudra the Supreme Commander for the Royal Guards of The Ranna Kingdom is a fierce warrior and one of the beloved disciples of King Amaran who is also his God Father who adopted him when he was an infant. Rudra was brought up in a very royal manner and trained as a skilled swordsman and a weapon craftsman. At a royal celebration Rudra finds out that his father who happened to be a theif in the kindgdom was executed by King Amaran and later he was adopted by the King on the words of the preists who saw a greater future in him.
This news flared rage into Rudra and he questioned King Amaran in front of the whole kingdom. During a following short silent period King Amaran is assassinated and the blame is put on Rudra. To protect himself and to find the truth Rudra goes on a voyage across neighboring kingdoms and finally comes face to face with Takshakan, a close kinsman of King Amaran who had plotted his assassination to take over the army and to expand the kindgdom to farther horizons.

Thanks for reading!

need help in getting a new Processor

shelmina — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 08:01:20 GMT

Hey everyone ,
Can any one suggest me a good Processor falling in the price range of Rs 7,500 to Rs 8,500?

I searched for some ,came up with the following below, but I'm not getting a detailed review or a comparison which would make complete sense , honestly the reviews seemed a bit difficult to follow as I'm not acquainted with what is it that one should be looking for when you go to purchase a certain hardware ,still a novice hence kind of confused in which one should I be going for. Or should I say which one would be suiting the best.

Intel E8500 Core 2 Duo Processor
Intel Q8200 Core 2 Quad Processor
Intel Core i3-530 processor price

My PC's current configuration is...
-G31 M Gigabyte motherboard
-NVIDIA Geforce 9600gt gfx card
- 3gb ram (1+2)
- present processor Intel Core 2 Duo 4300

So plz let me knw if the ones I came across are decent enough & compatible plus falling in my budget.
If not then do suggest me some which are compatible & would do a decent job.

Also if any one could tell me what are the key points one should keep in mind before selecting a processor or a mother board or a cpu or any hard ware etc , jus generally that'd be be a really huge help.

thank you...............

Gears OF War

mudit2903 — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 07:52:00 GMT

Well i know its not textured but i posted it here cos its a finished High Poly Model which will be used for AO and Normal Map Extraction for low poly ingame building.
Finally completed the High Res model of the building from Gears of War inspired by the concept of John Wallin. Starting to work on another environment so will come back to this for its low poly and texturing after that. Wanted to do a lot of stuff in Mudbox but had to stay content doing few only as my pc wasn't able to support. So took put normal map from Mudbox of extra details and appllied it to High Poly mesh in max and rendered in mental ray.

C & C welcome
