Alright it seems I'll be doing my own terrain as well for A&O, which I'm ok about so long as I can avoid getting wrapped up in for too long. Anyway, I'll just make this brief and see if anyone can help me. I need some concept designs for several areas of the map, including (badlands tileset with any units you want, but minimal sprites):
- A very long bridge that clips smoothly over land, mountains, water.
- Mountains. (preferably not simply some raised ground and a few rock doodads strewn about)
- A junkyard.
- A forest with high canopies and quicksand pits. (giggle)
- A high canyon (or maybe just a really tall rock wall).
- Water with reflections (AKA cloaked units with detection that follow other flyer units around that enter it).
- A prison area.
- A large tower protruding from the water.
This'll save me a lot of time and experimentation if someone can help me create a few samples of the above listed areas. I'll be sure to give credit to whoever's samples I use.

Im going with the Junk-Yard (Badland....right?)
Yeah badlands. You can use almost any units and tiles you want to create the asthetic effect, but avoid sprites if you can. Need to save those for another area I plan to use them in.
I'll try making a Moutain... or something similar.
Aw

! When i saved Scm Draft Crashed
For now im too lazy, but i promise i will post something today!
Here's my water tower thingy.
Xeno(u)... Hum That use Jungle and he want badland...

It doesn't matter, Badland carries most of the doodads I used.
Doesnt badlands use have a diferent bridge? most of thoes were parts of the jungle brig...
Let me get this striaght, you want a bridge that goes over mountains, water, and forest? (a long bridge) So there would be mountains, water, and forest underneath this bridge, because I might be able to do that (how long do you want the bridge?) Or i could do the high canyon.
Tux u seen my terrian samples post with my map with some terrian things? I could do some terrian examples for you of what you need if im not busy later with my own map. If you havnt seen my terrian samples dl that map and look at them it will show im good

Here's a lil' prison I put together, I'm not really all that good at terrain but I thought I'd help out.

Well I think this blends in smoothly with land and water, but i'm not sure how or about mountains. you can check it out if you want.

(dont mine the stuff in the upper right corner)
Here is a tower out of the water only took 5min to make but its something to go off of maybe. O yea my terrian map in experimental maps has a custom land and water bridge that could work for ur bridge i have two expamples of it over water and and land in that map too so yea take a look lol.
WOW alot ppl seem be doing terrain i'll throw something togetter later.
i think if u want it to be the best rpg ever i would build off the quest open rpg

Open RPG's are well plain dumb. Morrowind for PC and Xbox i the best example of a open rpg that is good. It has tons of quets and missions and stuff while open rpg's made for SC well suck b.c all u do is go kill enemys and on.
Morrowind owned

so many classes, weapons, quests, towns different type of monsters. Lots of Ai and just ownage. Open RPGS on sc need alot more work.
Here's my new water tower, it's similar to Bringer's, play it in SC, it looks sexy.
I made a water reflection, If you fly above the pool of water, the reflection will slide left and right under your unit. If you go into the water, the reflection will simply follow it.

Ethier way, if you let the idea sink in it looks uber sexy.

Wow, lots of stuff. I'll check them out when I can get to my home comp. The main ones I'll need soon are the canyons and mountains, as that will be the first area(s) of the game. The rest can come later.
You wanan jun-yad? make your own junk yard. Use the outhouse sprites in desert, there are lots fo junk in that one.
Here tux this map is posted else where and stuff but has a small mountain like design could be edited more to ur needs and such and it has a custom bridge.
