Originally started as a map-pack, the project outgrew itself and started a new life, a stand-alone mod. The action adventure (with RPG elements) takes place in the fantasy world of Loria, a Human kingdom besieged by conflict with the Orcs. A group of heroes, which includes you, is being cast down by the All-Seeing-Eye to save humanity once again. Travel alone or with your friends in co-operative mode, through the rich and colourful world of Loria and end the Orc's evil reign. Land of Legends uses a Sven Co-op 3.0 code base, but replaces all original content, surpassing SC's origional customisability. Our model and mapping style ranges from toony to semi-realistic. We're trying to build a living and colourful world for the player to be in. This MOD was in production from 2005 to 2009 by a small team of developers called DevEd and was released in December 2009.

This newspost is featuring our new monsters in a nice group picture and our plans for SC 4.0.

Posted by Hezus on Jan 23rd, 2009

Welcome to 2009 and welcome to a new update from Land of Legends. We took a vacation in December, but that doesn't mean no work has been done. You've seen soldiers, orcs and lots of melee weapons and even though that's fun enough, we thought Legends needed some more content. This means we're making extra monsters and weapons for the release. In this news update I'd like to present to you a new set of monsters: The bandits, the rockgolem & lavagolem and finally the Queen Spider.

New Monsters


More information and screenshots about the new foes later. I also hope I can give you some more info and screenshots on the new weapons in next month's update! Another thing that came across is the release of Sven Co-op 4.0 Beta! Since our mod uses the Sven Co-op code to function, we've been thinking about moving Legends to 4.0. After a short discussion, we've decided to stay on a 3.0 base for the time being, since 4.0 still has some major bugs where players are unable to play the game at all. This is why we'll wait untill these issues have been resolved.

Hmm, seems very interesting, a SC sub-mod. Sven Co-op 4.0 (currently Beta 1) is pretty sweet, and I've never played a first-person (assuming its an FPS not a TPS) melee Co-op' before. Seems pretty cool any news on total progress, I'm trying to read all your posts and info to get as much information as i can. I'll keep watch.

It looks cute... I'm really looking forward to that sub-mod. The whole idea sounds really good. RPG + coop would bring it to new heights.

I'm however still the opinion that you also should include the last missing hl1 beta monsters into sc. It would be perfect to have them in the game. It worked for the Stukabat maybe it will work for the others too.

The finished textured monsters + animations are:

The Panther (A mix between Alien Slave & Gnome)
The Archer (Maybe same ai like the icky)
The Chumtoad (Maybe some ai like headcrabs if it comes close to someone it explodes & creates smoke that hurts)
The Floater (Maybe an alien mine. If you're near it explodes.
friendly & kingpin (maybe some kind of Alien bosses like Tor with long range capabilities)

I'm not talking about model replacements. I'm talking about putting them into the game core.

Unfortunatly none of the team (developers) can code, so these things wouldn't be possible right now.

not sure if that's true.

They coded the new Monster TOR and gave life to the old Hl1 Beta Monster Stukabat.

they also scripted & coded 100 of new game features. So it should be possible for them.

That was Sniper; Sven Co-op's Coder, he isn't involved with this project as far as I know so and since none of the DevEd members can code for the Half-Life engine nothing can be added but replaced.
