You're probably too imbarrassed to look in this forum anymore, but just to let you know, this is exactly the terrain that is considered mirroring... So you moved around some tiles... SO WHAT. More than 90% of these pieces are taken directly from the tileset index in the same order...
I find that QUITE insulting and i ask you refrain from it. I am not imbarassed nor am i a n00b to terrain or anything of that sort, to me these look positive and with lack OF CURRENTLY FINISHED MAPS contaning extended terrain id say ive got the market beat. That is untill wooden, wilhelm or some one who has 2 points of skill decides to finish a map.

The only thing I have positive to say is that you are one step ahead of the people that can't find the tileset index.
I also find this a bit insulting but maybe thats your mannor.

helps to get ideas going and helps you know previously discovered blends.
Im not intrested in previously discovered blends. Im intrested in what i can forge by my own hand and what looks good to me.

One last thing then i'm done... Focus on the 'usablility' factor... Notice how(only one example) WoodenFire concentrates on ramps/staircases/bridges? There is no reason for extended terrain to sit there and look good. Extended bridges can be used as cosways or other things. Walkability is a MAJOR plus in a piece of terrain. Who cares if a bridge looks good if it cannot be used to walk across.

I focus on cosmetics exclusively. Id rather have a non wakable piece of terrain that i can stick in an RPG to make a sick looking structure/or something or other that doesnt NEED to be walked apoun.
Walkability is obviously not a concern of mine unless i need it to be. My belief in extended terrain is that it is there to WOW the player. It may all look fine and dandy to people who understand how hard it was to find some blend but someone playing the map wont appreciate it unless it LOOKS good.
So we disagree quite a bit.
