From some of Gitlich's inspiration, I have created a Mercenary Camp and stripped the Human Fortress. Please tell me what you think of it, as I really appreciate the comments.
Here's another. I changed the mercenary camp into an expansion for the good side. (Please ignroe the pathing blockers) I haven't gotten to the doodad work on that portion of the map, that's why it's plain. After while, I'll give some actual screenshots in the game to see what you think about them. As usual, comments are GREATLY appreciated.
However, as a side-note, it looks kind of weird at that angle with the mercenary camp sticking out. How about you put it inwards in between the two fences holding horse? Then, stick a wall behind it so that the mercenary camp is perfectly rectangle.
Also, now that I think about it, two taverns? Maybe one should have a blacksmith/armory model.
Ok I've got a few more for ya. This is of the Undead Camp, and is VERY WIP, since I've only finished the outer wals. These are seriously empty inside the camp, but I would like feedback on how you like the basic architecture of the town. I got inspiration from Tides of Blood, so you'll notice similarities within the walls and the lanes. I did add a little of my own spice, but jsut remember i still ahven't gogttten far on this, I just need feedback on the architecture of the town.
This is also a picture of what I'm thining about what the minimap image will look like, but tis will definately not be it, because of the lack of doodads, units, etc. Once I finish the terrain and stuff, I might set this one back up and take it again. Tell me what you think if it lookks good, remember i haven't done much on that side of the map.
Here's another of my favrotei image I came up with, because I totally created this and it has been the msot fun of all of them. This one I really want feedback on, because I recreated the first image I put up here and made it different. I also changed the sky, widened and smoothed out the path. I'm also thinking about spreading the doodads out and putting them towards the middle, because I jsut loked over it again and the doodads seem to be clumped up on the sides. So, tell me what you think.
Since its an undead camp, the tree I think should be dea, ground should be blight and maybe a mix of dirt and no grass. Instead of putting flower and bushes put thorned vines (from Northerend) and shrooms.
some statues from Black citedal would look cool, and some dead corpses, flying bats, graveyard, busted wheelbarrow, infested haystack maybe some regional dungeon fog. Just the obvious stuff I guess
Doubt anyone will notice but unless your map is a marsh or wetlands having catails in middle of land looks a little awkward I think. Other than that, looks pretty decent
cattails or not it adds that bushy affect wich complements that area nicely.
Also i agree with staying with a theme, like the undead cmap should look decreped and dirty. the grass and trees make it look to alive.
press the prt scr button right to the left of F12 and then open up Paint or another photo editiong program and hold ctrl + V and your pictuere pops up.
Thanks for the ideas, I'll definately be using them. I'll probably update it later tonight but for now I'm working on the AI system.
Very nice, however, I'd show certain parts of the map so we can see it a little better. Can't give feedback since I can abrely see it. Also, would you mind making another thread for your screenshots? Sorry, but not to be mean, but this is kinda my screenshots thread, and it will get very mixed up if we're both posting shots.
oh yea. sorry ^^; ill make my own screen shot thread, dont think ur bein mean, i knda knew this would happen. lol. ill make my own screen shot as soon as this dumb thing will let me post! i can only post 1per60seconds.
Go to your gallery and copy the links it has there, then post them here. Your basically posting links, like you would for other sites, so post as many links as you want.
I'm on a page about incorrect corrections, and spent the better part of like two hours trying to get someone to understand that -5^2 = -25, not 25, and then that post had comments get reposted because that group is self sustaining, and that person was in turn trying to explain what I just explained to them. And I'm taking that as a victory
I will be AFK for a couple of days you guys hold down the fort while I am gone. I will be checking in on my phone but that will severly limit me. Be back saturday!
