The Terrain Thread

[Anachron]

I was bored and made this terrain:

hope you like it!

 

[FireEffect]

Get a "less-aerial screenshot. Make it epic looking, the camera is IMPORTANT. Add more trees, hills, tile variation, hold ctrl and scroll to get rid of blackness, add a sky.

 

[Mr.Tutorial]

How can you actually see your sky?

 

[FireEffect]

Hold ctrl while scrolling to make the blackness go away. Go to File - Preferences and set a sky. And get a better angle to where you can actually see the sky.

 

[Mr.Tutorial]

Umm... it's not working... :S

 

[2-P]

Crtl + mouse wheel in(/de)creases the FarZ.
Press "V" in WE to activate game view, which enables the sky and fog and hides those little pink click-helper boxes.


>"hope you like it! "

Looks like good playable terrain. But yeah, try another camera perspective.


>"I think it is the endy part of "Haxorz" or something like that. Krewl_Rain uses that a lot. "

Krewl Rain uses everything a lot. pew pew pew xD

I made this last night

@Banlord: Looks uber awesome.

The challenge of terraining is to use what warcraft gives you. And I made this! It took me about a hour. Has like 1000 doodads or more. I checked a little while back and it said 950 and i am certain i added at least 50 more. Er...I posted my only 2 other terrains here. Soooo thats about it.

Reminds me of a comercial from an XBOX 360 rpg very nice banlord

Rainforest of 3202 Doodads :O

Yeah this is a rainforest with tree size 5.0. It has 3202 doodads. 0.1 size seaweed makes GREAT (and laggy) grass. And i will not use imports. So whatcha think?

EDIT - Wtf where is the rain?

EDIT - Eh its raining but hard to see unless its animated.

 

[Black Hawk]

Wow, that truly is a piece of crap!

Spoiler

Naw, its awesome, I cant terrain like that for my life.

 

[Demonwrath]

Here is a graveyard I made for a map of mine:

 

[FireEffect]

Press I to make the squares go away. And its good if its being used in a map. Could use a bit more doodads though.

 

[FireEffect]

Bump. Any comments on my forest besides calling it crap and/or awesome. Some tips on how to improve?

 

[Ninja_sheep]

you maybe can use cenarius ultimate effect for good rain.
well, the trees look a little plain but i think there's nothing you can do about.
Maybe make a world-tree based tree?
maybe change aroudn with the hight of some trees. now if you look at the roof of leaves it looks so plain.

just my noob comment

>"just my noob comment "

And I agree with you, so I guess we're both noobs.
Why do you want rain anyway? Not like anything could get through that dense roof.

Some terrain for the upcomming survival map, Apocalypse.

My favorite shot/area in general. Personally I think this is really good, but I'll let you people be the judge of that!

I know the car is a bit bright, it has later on been shaded properly.

Maybe cuz its a rainforest. I guess it looks more like a normal forest with all the critters and stuff.

Oh and RSH, omigod that is better than some of 2-P's stuff it doesnt even look wc3ish.

Explanation of this picture: I wanted to try and form a cave-like area out of the terrain, since Warcraft 3 can't actually make caves beyond the terrible-looking cliff doodads that aren't even really caves. I prefer to only use the standard world editor, with no imported models. This is the solution I came up with. (Yes, I know the rest of it doesn't look that great, I mainly wanted some filler so it didn't look like a dirt mound with a hole in it.)

The insert is how I managed to make it appear concave - basically, I tilted the camera, along with most of the doodads, and added several scaled-down doodads in the background to attempt to give it more depth.
