umm, maybe a dam? its actually not a very bad damn when i realized what was coming out from the bridge. remove the doors on the side of the cliffs and it will look pretty good.

What can I do to improve it?

THe walls next to the dam are all the same tile.

I've never seen plants grow on a dam before. Maybe adding a sprite that has to do with machines (like the one with the two fans) instead of trees would look better.

I'm getting sick —and probably alot of other people are sick— of overusing jungle plants and jungle doodads, people need to start using something else... and actually make something we havn't seen before. wink.gif

The most points ide give it for would be for originality. Other then that it is way too blocky. You did a good job on sprite placeing but you really should go back and redo the bottom part and get rid of repeated tiles and make them blend alot better. Over all originality did cetch my eye without that it would have been bad...I'll still give it a thumbs up though.

people use jungle because its one of the Basic things to start with and there is a lot of stuff you can make with Jungle terrain

anyway yes it looks like a damn and well fix that marine! its ugly! jk(he is there fro vision)

umm only thing i dont like is the vegitation as said beer and also the damn only has 2 openings it should maby have 1 more in the middle if its nessisary

hehe, watch this will start a dam craze now to match the waterfall craze tongue.gif .

ya i made the vegitation because none other's looked rite... Because this dam is set in the time period of My RPG and setting it kinda needs to look like its in a jungle. I made this in like 10 minutes and I'm going to improve it tommarow...
Today Im gone to My Grandmother's BirthDay...

Dude, take the blockiness down, then resubmit and that should be a hall of famer.

OMG thast not fair....i figured out it was a dam the first second i saws it...only im too l8 angry.gif

shadowbrood is right, that is a potential all of famer DOWN WITH BLOCKINESS!

Gah... I really cant find a way to get down on the blockyness... There are only 1 good temple wall that I can use because the others use the top of the wall "rim"

Although I am coming uop with a replacement dam and hopefuly it will be good also...

Well, its not that blocky, and probably looks nicer in game, but the mini water spouts are nice (dont call them waterfalls or else god will kill 2 kittens!) and the height factor was used pretty nicely, although from a screenshot standpoint, the blockiness shows. One reason is definitely the doors on the side, they are hard to blend with wall terrain used in this instance.

...err what do u mean it will look better in game... the screenshot is in game...??

Thats the best dam ive seen (using terrain and sprites).
I think the snake statues would look cool if u threw them in there (you know the ones on the coastal cliff).

It's pretty good but the terrain could be blended a bit better.

I think the hallucinated number in StarForge is 2, but I'm doing it from memory, so that's probably wrong....

And don't use Scourge, use Hallucinated Observers. That way you don't get shadows.

people make whatever they want, you want more terrain, make some yourself.
Gj odd, it looks pretty cool, the plants on the side where the water is coming from look like they're floating. but this is still pretty cool though
