Once in a while, I open SCMDraft. I'll post whatever I come up with in this thread, but don't expect anything overly fancy -- that's just not my style.

Are you using pylon auras for the 2nd and 3rd picture?
That would slow the game a lot, plus you already showed that time ago

Anyway gj.
Great terrain, i'll add it to hall of fame right away.
How'd that marine get down there? Where are the aura sprites?
The Marine is just walking on top of Floor Gun Traps. If you can see closely between the two sprites on the temple terrain you can see that 1 tile is different from all the others and that a Floor Gun Trap is slightly on top of it.
Do I detect sarcasm Virus?

Nothing Overly Fancy? You just created terrain where people can walk in shallow water, that's stuinning. Way better then what anyone else has does. Give yourself a Pat on the back. This terrain is awesome, wish i had skills like this.
Hmm, how did he do the aura sprite so small?
There is no Aura Sprite, he uses Floor Gun Traps as a "Flooring" so that the Marine seems to walk on top of water. The Floor Gun Traps actually cover up walkable terrain and make it seem like water so it gives the appearance of the Marine walking over real water insetad of the usual aura sprite.
Wow thats incredible, I'm sure it look way better in the game, walking around.
Is this coming out anytime soon? can't wait to see it. Great work.
Are you sure what you are talking about TRiGGaMaSTa?
Those screenshots that qPirateKing posted ARE in-game screenshots.
there IS a difference between looking at a screenshot and actualy playing the map.
Lol beer... Your geting confused because everyone is being dumb...
I could tell it was gun traps off the start...
Good job Pq,
Amazing...just amazing terrain. I love the effect you used for the caves...if it is caves or the land behind the flooded gate. Very good terrain!

Thios terran is just real nice! Really, good job man! How did you make that marine get down there, I don't see what Beer means about the gun traps...
I remember him showing me that when he started DB. I like it Pirate.
WHere are aura sprites, i mean it doesn't look like an aura sprite on Starforge!
that is seriously nice terrain
The Aura sprites are only in the cavern-like pictures.
he used normal terraiin like dirt... leading to the water tunnel place...
I think it is square but i dont know... Then he placed the floor gun traps on the ground so it blends in with the water... Its really not that hard to understand...

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?! this terrain is awesome, why would you say that? why dont you come up with something better/ more origanal? seriously, this is like some of the best terrain ive seen. Also, its not on jungle terain like everyone else always does.
ADDITION:
actually only the first one is on jungle terrain
Correction, all three pictures are in Jungle Terrain. They are all the same map and they are all the same terrain.
Here's how to make the Water Caverns.
- Make a big batch of High Dirt Terrain
- Put Dirt Terrain(THis will be the cavern that you see)
- Place Pylon aura sprites
- Place rock sprites along the edges of the cliffs to make it look like it's another type of terrain and to make it look like if it's underground.
That's what I was thinking, BeeR, but if you look closely at the floor of the cavern it looks kind of like the shale in the Lava tileset.
