Hey everyone... after many years of getting ideas for maps and yet not finishing one I have come to the conclusion that im a terrainer... not a map maker so here is my first real try at terraining...

Upper Room

Couldn't think what to name

Bridge

Canal?

Nudged over a bit

It only took me half an hour, and I didn't use any sprites. I know this "Interior Temple" thing has been done before but I thought I should have a go at it. I know there is blockyness... you don't have to remind me

And I noticed that you yourself are always your hardest critic... tell you the truth I think I did an "OK" job on this... not good not bad
I think the worst part of it is the bridge... much blockyness

Ok here is the fixed up version:
Base

Canals

Entrance

Bottom Corner

Middle

Bridge1

Bridge2

I thought I did better, the sprites helped too lol. Wat u guys think? Rate the new version please!

I like it so far smile1.gif , although it could use a few more colors. Mabe some plants or something. Otherwise, I say that it would make a good RPG or survival map bleh.gif

9.5/10.0

I like your ideas, i know you don't want to hear it, buti t honestly is way too blocky, if you had a more experienced terrainer fix it up, it'd be awesome

I've seen better, but much better than i could do im sure. Maybe spend a little more time finding exact tile matches, but other than that, the ideas are good, and looks pretty concrete. Nice job. 8.5/10.

It's your first try or your first thing you chose to make a topic of? Because it looks like this isn't your first time.
It looks blocky (sorry to say), there are lots of blends you can make to make it smoother.

wow, solid idea. i like them, i havent seen it before. 8/10

minor blockyness

1st one is too plain, and/or not plain enoug and blocky. 5/10
2nd is way too blocky. 1/10
3rd is horrifying beyond belief. 0/10
4th is better, but still not that much. 3/10
5th is " " " " " " "

The first one has a lot of unnessecary blockiness on the right edges.

2nd one is really messed up around the bridge, and some of your walls have some lines.

3rd has way too much blockiness on the bridge.

4th+5th are better, but nothing too impressive. On the very left of picture 4 you have a major problem.

Overall: 6/10 Good ideas, some nice things done, but way too much leftover blockiness.

this one is a rough draft right? this could really look nice if you spent a lot of time fixing it up
Report, edit, etc...Posted by empty on 2006-04-28 at 17:29:22

Eh, theyre ok. You kinda used alot of the gun thingies. Kinda makes it ugly sad.gif . The Bridge is VERY blocky. Try fix that up. 5/10

EDIT: Oh shoot, didn't know it was first attempt. For first attempt, a 7.5/10.

For those who think it wasn't my first time you are sorta right
because this is my first time at ONLY TERRAINING

I've terrained for maps before but most of them consisted of not that much or no isom at all ( I used basically rect )

Thanks for all your replies

I'm working on a fixed up version of it as I speak right now
Ill post it in the same post when I'm finished

Ok I added the new version to the first post by me, so scroll up and check em out

hm, it didn't look like you tried blending anything, and everything you added made it look worse.

i say 3 1/2 out of 10

and is this soppused to be on the roof? cause your bottom corner picture makes it look like it is.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Jello-Jigglers on 2006-04-29 at 20:17:08
Newer ones still could use some work... But a little better... Try and cover up some of the most major conflicting tiles with a tree/bush sprite. That would make it look like it was fine and a bush was just growing out of the side good luck.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Toothfariy on 2006-04-29 at 23:21:50
yeah, looking better. however you must cover up all blocky tiles

7/10
