Lets see I need some terrain for a map I am making. Specifications:

Tileset: Installation
Size: 256x256
Description:

It should look something like an army base. In each of the four corners there needs to be a small "starting area" for the characters. Somewhere on the edge there needs to be a spot of buildable null big enough for 4 engineering bays (stacked; off by 1 grid square) and 4 science facilities (facilities stacked right on top of eachother). In the middle there needs to be a maybe 6x6 (isometric demesions) lowered pit area with stairs leading down and ther little balcony above it showld be walled on all sides with four corridors leading into it at opposite corners. Use doors in strategic places: gameplay is that you have to unlock doors from a place then finish map so use doors here and there to provide better access or access to more areas after doors are unlocked. In each "quadrant" have 3 computer control stations; two with a door in them so you have to unlock doors to get to and one not doorred in but hard-to-find. Also, add plenty of nooks and crannies for items and a few secret passages. perhaps have a barracks room or two. I may add to description if results are needed.

Prize: Up to 500 Minerals (depends on how good terrain is) and map recognition.

Happy Terraining!

I'd do it but my monitor sucks...

I'll do it this weekend. Maybe. I'll post it here if I do.

However it would help if you clarified what the map IS. Is it like an indoor shooter, an RPG, an aliens map? What is it?

Like I said it's in an army base and yes it's an RPG. You have to infiltrate base and steal enemy codes. YOu are fighting the bases pplz (comps) and 3 other spies from other countries (humans)

And why would be that Bolt?

DT_B: I would do it but I kinda like doing terrain as I see fit and I don't think that would be usefull. But if no one submits one during a reasonable amount of time I guess i'll have to do it.

I would do it, but unfortunately I'm without a computer. It's really a shame, you most likely can't find a better installation terrainer than me!

Que "Muhahahahahaha!"

SOLD!!!
I'll do it tommorow, er...at least start on it.
But chances are, ill finish it as well as start it.
let's see, today is the twenty-forth so, expect it before november.
O, and Xeno(U). Work fast. Im not exactly a push over when it comes to Terrain (or Trigger) making.
So, in all spirit of fun and stupid online minerals (lol), let's have a good clean fight for the finish!

He can just paste sections he wants anywhere with starfroge, so even if it's just a section it would work fine.

How can you suck at doing terrain? It's like the easiest thing to do on a map, well other than naming units =p. Just be diverse.

You can copy and paste SF terrain how. I use to know (I read it somewhere how you can trandfer it into the custom palette, but I don't rememerb how to put it in there. I know there must be a very simple way to do it but....

I suck at art. If terrain was numbers and programming I could do it. But it is more art :/

Report, edit, etc...Posted by LegacyWeapon on 2004-10-28 at 23:05:30

It is a lot like pixel art but different. It's block art. Like that guy named Chuck Close. He makes like huge drawings and breaks it down so each block is one picture. We should get him to do the terrain

Oh yeah i guess i should check up on these threads more often, The reason is because we don't want people selling help. Right here help is being bought and selling help isn't far behind it.

Do you want it to look really good? I mean with all matching walls and doodads and stuff, or just the shape and design of the level be good.

Anything mostly done is fine.

I made 1 of the 4 bases, but it will probably take a while for me to copy it 3 times and then make the center area.
Its got a main hall way with some rooms and some passages and some more rooms(computer room, item room, empty rooms, whatever works), and you would have to open at least one door to get to the center area.

Do you want the 4 parts of the map to be connected in any way other than the center?

do you want each quadrant thingy to be the same for each player just about?
