Some swamps are rivers, FaZ-.

I don't know if any of you have seen the movie "U.S. Marshals," but if you have, there is a search party out for a man who is hiding out in a swamp—which just happens to be a river. That example comes to mind when I look at Theoretical Human's swamp.

I agree, it should be a hall of famer.
The real question is is how many units that used up. biggrin.gif

doesnt matter, hall of famer definetely, and is it too late to change my vote?

I don't think this thread is really a competition anymore.

It's sort of come more or less a "show and tell."

I've changed my vote twice, though. tongue.gif

I live in a swampy city... where everyone sais "That is a swamp" its jsut a little marshey field with a river going through it and a lot of dead swamp grass. Usually they have trees and are all mushy. They have lots of birds and animals. I pass swamps when I just drive 2 blocks away.

All swamps are different. I liked DeathKnights, that seemed very swampy.

Addition: Where the hell do you think swamps get there water?! Not like it just appears there... needs to be a source (river)

I've made a more thought out version. Beer, if you like this one more, swap the screenshots. I liken my swamp to this one.

That's pretty good. It looks more like a corrupted/dirty river though, as swamps usually have some sort of vegetation residing inside of the water.

ya try adding in a tree or sumdan in the swamp, but it looks really good, and that mustve been hard considering the barrack are pretty hard to place just right to get the shadows in the right place...

I think the second one really pushes the fact that barrackses(?) were used, instead of showing shadows. Look at the second, where many obvious shadows stick out to the left side of the swamp. The first covers up that effect nicely though, with little bits of terrain poking through the shadows.

So what should I do? The first one has sloppy sprite placement, and the second has bad shaddow effects.. is there any way to please anyone?

I like the second one as it is. But it looks like a river... a dark river for an RPG smile.gif

That would be good if it weren't a 'shop pic.


Hmm, burning swamps, anyone?

I heard some swamps if you light a match (or fire) it would "explode" because of all the flammible gasses from rotting matter...

WOW!!!! nice swamps everyone but I like dks or theoretical humans the best.... death knight, how do you get the waterery effect for the terrain on which the marine walks... and why hasn't anyone used these fantastic swamps on rpgs for battle.net? confused.gif

They are just to show terrain, I still have to stick with Dk's swamp.. No offense to theoretical but Dk's was larger, and he was the first one (to my knowledge) to have used the shaddowy effect.

GJ on the swamps everyone!

And Dk... I think you started a new trend using the shadow of buildings..
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Wilhelm on 2005-04-30 at 16:37:03
Mine was just to show the concept, not an actual swamp. DK's barely resembles a swamp, but good terrain nonetheless. I honestly have yet to see a realistic swamp, (yes, even my own).

how do you get the shadows in the swamp??

It has been said before but...

Place some barracks, go into Properties and select "In Transit". It will now be lifted off. Find a way to disable them all.
