Foggy Lake

[Solaris]

Never start terraining out of boredom!
Sometimes an overrated rule...
I was bored, so I thought of a day
at a foggy lake and here it is...

The first one is sort of nice, I like the waterfall. Although the foreground is lacking in interest, and some doodads are oddly placed. The concept is nice though, keep it up

i suggest using the water doodad for the lake, with the current water, I can't really see water, only the waves are visible.

and, do what fladdermasken said. and I also suggest to use the waterfall doodad from utm, or if you go on with these, lower so they are a straight line.

Shot angles could probably be better. As suggested, use the water plain doodad, it owns. Tip for waterfalls; select all the waterfall doodads, delete them, then undo your delete. For a second there won't be ugly lines where the top of each doodad is, and it'll flow better. Take the shot then.

Yeah thx a lot... Just imported the water-plane model from the Utm and it looks much better. Some doodad placement is not fine, since I planned to make a screenshot from far away. But I´ll change that, because its right what Gilles said about the shorter angle.
Beside these doodads, what about the others, didn´t they fit there or need I to lower or raise them?

quite nice, the only bad i found was that you can see the end of map in the second picture

I would suggest you to use glow model from UTM to make fog and not the Editor generatet fog.
Other than that it looks good.

Ok I´m working on it right now, testing out the light effects in the UTM. But still haven´t figured out to make a realistic fog-effect with glow model.
Hopefully I could upload a new pic tomorrow...

 

[fladdermasken]

Use the fog model instead of the glow model. It's located under cinematic as well, and makes due for better fog than the glow model according to me

 

[Solaris]

As I said before here are two new reworked pics.
-added glow
-added water-model
-changed angle
-removed WE-Fog
-changed sky
But I still haven´t found the fog model in the UTM.
And I think it will be so far the last Screenshotmap
with highres doodads, because my Pc isn´t going to make it
(especially with the glow and cloud-effects).
Thanks to all so far...

Looks much better and more alive, great changes. Although the lake looks VERY shallow with that bright tinting and rocks sticking out everywhere.
The fog doodad is located under cinematic in UTM
