How much did you spend (time, not money :D) on the map?

I am not sure, really. One and a half hour or so I think?

That's not bad at all! It's pretty fast.

As I wrote, I first attempted a geographical attempt but quickly cancelled that.
Not sure if the smaller maps would have much of that.

You don't have to stress out. Do it in a way that you'll feel satisfied.

"You don't have to stress out." Can you tell that to every Darkest Dungeon hero please? They don't listen when I tell them that.

I mean it allows you to import textures, but I do not know if I need any yet.
Thanks for sharing, still, I may use them (need a black ground one for the Void anyway!)

I'm curious what else you can import. For instance if you want to make your own trees, buildings, would you need a specific standard to follow?

I am not sure, really. I know that you can import ground textures and I guess you can import more picture files...

Fantastic

The awesome part is that you could make maps similar to those of the Warcraft III campaigns meaning, leaving space on the right for the racial logo and mission text.

Indeed!

Heh, for those nifty images I linked way earlier, I think they used texture variations to actually draw the landscape, shades, colours and all.

Now all you gotta do is find a way to make campaign menus.

That requires 3D work, no way I can do that.

Yeah... I was thinking of something like importing a bunch of models in the Warcraft III Model Editor and fusing them together as one. But, that could be hard too, I guess.

You should really use some nice tables on that timeline.

One for each date?
Yeah, I prolly should.
