My Idea was, that from the original SK site we could download a minimage that works separately from the Game, and what that program does is it opens up ''The Guild Hall Designer'', this program works exacly like when you are in the guild house (with both design and play mode)in this minigame we have access to unlimited recourses and everything unlocked, to allow us to design our own Personal offline Guild house or make plans for our online guild house! What do you think?

P.S. If such a program already exists please point me to it.

So, something like SketchUp, not much of a designer but it's simple blue prints. Or just outright play Sims.

Not exactly

Yes, but not exactly, this one it going to work JUST like being in the game's actually guild house, and could be useful for more than Simulating Sims, I think it could be really handy in guild designing and like the sims it can also be used for personal entertainment! What do you think?

Hmm

Seems like a lot of development time that could be spent on something more productive, but I try not to use that as a reason to pan a suggestion as there will always be time for it later. Regardless, I think it would be hard to incorporate the designed halls back into the game, since everything is based on preset tiles that can be loaded in chunks. This would probably run a lot slower and take up a lot more space.

What do you mean? I didn't understood anything from your comment! The idea to copy and change a bit the hall mechanics to have a creative COMPLETELY OFFLINE mode, you wouldn't be able to import them back online! Besides t the coding is already there, all they have to do is put it up for download and change the values of the items. (I'm not a programmer (I don't know the slightest of it) so I have no idea how it would be done but but I don't think it is THAT difficult)

Wait

So it's just 3D modeling software using SK textures? ...heard of Spiral Spy?

@ Kilpik-Forum

What is Spiral Spy?

EDIT: I just checked, and no, that's not what I mean! Just like Lightning said it would be like Sims creative mode! You can move around and use items. I mean really? Who wouldn't like this?

I don't have a good

I don't have a good explanatory link for you, but go look it up. It's basically a model viewer for SK in which you can see knight models, terrain, and other stuff. You could also ask some of the people in the Treasure Vault sub forum.

EDIT (because ninja'ed): oh. Well then... I'm not sure i understand correctly, because it seems like you just want a guild and unlimited money to see how nice you can make your GH look.

EXACTLY! I mean come on? Who wouldn't like making a guild house look as awesome as humanly possible without worrying ending up broke? And it wouldn't be exploitable since it would not have not any actuall programming connection to the real game! Spore Creature Creator for example!

well,

It takes the fun out of doing it in the real game. Why would you spend money on it, thus helping the game's economy, when you could do it for free in this system?

Lol, just call me Skye.

Anyways, not siding with anyone here, just pointing out necessary(or unnecessary) facts.

Good:

-More like Sims.
-Something like a spin-off game, something separate.

Bad:

-No fun doing it in actual game.

What I suggest:

Make it a lot like Sims, but add a currency value to the items. Offline.

@KlipkiK

Well the answer is that the program would only work offline, and it would be single player only! So yes, you can do get everything for free and build the ultimate epicness, but it is only your personal playground NO ONE ELSE ALOWED, so if you want an actual guild house with members you have to work for it! Plus people admire an awesome guild house but if it is a playground you can't brag about it!

P.S. Really wouldn't you guys want this to exist?

Why are you advertising?
BTW The game is not what I pictured OGHD to be if that's what you meant.

@Hexzyle

This is the most off-topic thing, but do you think that more NES games will come on the new Animal Crossing like in the GC one? I want more NES games :(

Most definitely not. That was a slip up on Nintendo's fault. They accidentally gave out those games for free. Plus the 3DS already has the Virtual Console.
