I just started my new map called Urban Warfare, and i seem to have trouble with starforge on making the streets and buildings believeable. 
Blending the water with a tiles that you can see over was easy but buildings seem to be much harder and the streets look semi-real. If someone could give me hints or even draw a small building in a map it would be greatly appreciated.

What I do to download is right click save file as and then add .scx or .scm to the filename and change save as type to all files.

for one, make your terrain away from your "good copy." actaully blend your terrain the way you want to and then just copy and paste it onto the "good copy."
Also, if you don't need extended terrain, just use it, isom is always going to be perfect and look tons better(unless you're a pro). for example, your low dirt-water cliffs should have just been made with isom. of course, except for the area where it connects to the bridge.
I'm not sure if you really want or need everything to be horizontal and vertical, but having diagonal streets will make things look better and allow you to have nice looking lane dividers, sidewalks, properly angled buildings, and a bunch of other things

probably stuff you try to make will make it blocky a bit. if some of it is, maybe you can add some sprites to cover it up like lamposts and stuff to disguise it...know it the different tiles wont align perfectly so its just a suggestion...

look good, but, its the most blockiest (a new word!) map i have EVER seen 
of course isom will make it better than blocky but i suggiest that u do like Neighborhood_Terrain.scm, well im not a pro but...
