Well, this is my first time making a waterfall, and I have read the tutorial on how to make a waterfall. I am working on it and yes I know its blocky, its for my RPG right now. I need your opinion on wat you think about it and suggestions on how I can improve it. Help would be appreciated.

Are you sure that's a secret o.O

Those tiles don't match at all. Use the eldfire sprites to cover the blockiness.

And one more thing: please, everyone, no more waterfalls. We've all seen bunches of waterfalls, and, frankly, we don't need more. Make them if you want, but don't bother posting them...

It's still good to look at them once in a while =/

He can do waterfalls if he wants do. 1/10, for effort mainly. The water portion was ok. The cliffs and sprites, meh, not so good.

And does the river magically appears in that small pond? or do you have to wait until it rains for it to fill up?

You see corbo, that's the beauty of terraining in starcraft. It doesn't have to make any geological sense to work or be there. Trees can appear from the dryest most water patched terrain and out of boulders and huge steel fixtures, huge gaping waterfalls can fall from the tinyest ponds and cascade down the tiniest mountains. See. It's beautiful.

By the way, it is possible to have a waterfall from a tiny pond or opening if the river has submerged underground into formed into a underground river. Just fyi.

Nice waterfall...

Can we try making something else?

No Rating, work it some more.

Well thanks. Ill see wat I can fix, ill go back to the first time I did it. Well, ill fix the hallucinations. Not that im mad or anything but the people who put 0/10. That would mean that I didnt really do anything at all except tile smash.

The trees were basically suppose to block the the shadow of the scourge, and also it was ment to be like a tree that was stuck underground.

Well, ill try fixing it and ill post the updated version.

Well, ima be posting an updated picture which I kinda fixed. I fixed the blocky parts and such, but theres some here and there.

Like I have said countless times, I will not rate any terrain but I like to give suggestions and such. The top tiles looks really blocky and doesn't match at all...I agree with the trees being in the water, but the waterfall is okay I suppose I can't even make 1 at all so congrats to you still lol...

I suggest you take a look here:

This is an old thread I worked on with desperado. I found all of the (semi)worthmention waterfalls. Take a look at these for some ideas(I suggest you look at Escher's and Rantent's mostly).
