Very nice and refined, the scarabs add a nice touch. A few things though: The waterfall looks static, which has always been my complaint with most people's water falls. It would be better to have observers "flowing" downward to make the illusion of moving water. In fact, a good effect all throughout would be to make 'streams' of observers to make the illusion of water currents. You could even add some shield battery sparkle effects to make the water shimmer.

I tried the observers, but I didn't think it looked too good so I removed them. But maybe with the shimmer effect it might work better.

Oh, I found a WAV that can be used when you move the marine near the water. It would be a great sound effect, but I didn't add it because I thought it might disturb the calmness of the map.

Well here it is, a "refinalized" version of Aqua Dungeon.
BTW, I'm not doing this for the minerals. In fact, I plan on giving the minerals away if I win, which I probably won't. I just thought it would be fun to enter.

I'm gonna redo my hell again soon. I want to add a few more things to make it more... hellish.

Plus it's pretty boring looking at a static scene.

Well here it is. Only Clokr_ should download the map. Others are recommended to just look at the screenies unless you want to hear that wonderfully relaxing music.

Well, I won't be the judge. It'll be a public poll, so anyone can vote, so I guess that most of users might want to dl the maps and check them. I'll post them all in the same topic anyway when the contest ends

Just a quick note - Please use the newer version for the contest. I think the waterfall looks much better.

Well this is the due date...

Here's my map.
[attachmentid=9659] It's definately not my best work, but it's ok. It looks sort of aukward, because originally I was going for a happy marketplace, with parades and stuff. But sc doesn't work well with happy, and I couldn't find any matching music. Also I was unable to do much editing in the past few weeks, so I had to do it all rushed when I had the time.
I guess all my complaining is becuase I hope this turned out good.

You saw my latest update to my hell terrain clokr, so you can go ahead and use that if you want. I never got around to finishing it off the way I wanted though, so I don't hold too high hopes for it.

I wish good luck to everyone participating in this contest!

Sorry, but I don't have time with the finals and all that shit and I will delay the end of the contest a bit. I think that I will have time next weekend.

This is what I have so far:

Kenoli, Kingra or Rantent: if you want to make sure that you get the best zone of your map as screenshots make them and post them on this topic. Anyway, MiniMoose made 3 screenshots of each map and I think that you'll like them.

If you still want to make/improve the map you still can.

PD: I don't know if next weekend I will have time. I hate finals

Alright cool!
Now to add some crazy special effects to my map!

Report, edit, etc...Posted by Kingra on 2005-05-31 at 20:09:27

Thanks FINALS. There were somethings I wanted to add to mine but I didn't have the time. I'll update this post with the latest version!

Report, edit, etc...Posted by Tuxedo Templar on 2005-05-31 at 23:16:56

Another week? Ok fine, I'll go ahead and finish it off. Might as well port it to ashworld, instead of Badlands (I was trying to get the right effect so I could use it in Rush).

I hate how you always do stuff for a reason. It's too damned practical for me, and I'm a very practical person.

I thought you used the Badlands terrain for the bone doodads... but does this mean we'll see an area like this in Rush?

Kinda. More like a boss room.

Could I like post an old map I don't plan on finishing? It's basically just a big ambient show-off in its current state.

Or can I like not participate because of some deadline or something?

Lol, don't waste any time do you?
I thought it was cool by-the-by.

Hehe, thanks.
Yours was pretty good too, you've got some good stuff going on in the terrain department.

So what, is anyone gonna post any map else?

Guess not. I never got to perfecting my map, been busy.

Ya, I was on a mac all last week so I didn't do anything on it.
