The Conquest of America (Terrain)

This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
[highlight]North America
[/code]
Made by MayBePro
This is North America in XV century (before Christopher Columbus came).
Map is made for my future project (The Conquest of America) and uploaded so you can give your suggestions and criticism.
If, for some reason, you like it you can use it, only give me credit for terrain.
I don't want to offend anyone by making this map, but I never been to America so it can be not as realistic as it could be.

  • Added roads (or pathways).
  • Added water doodads.
  • Got rid of square water and some useless doodads
  • If you want to use my map, you can do it without asking my permission - just give me credit for terrain
  • I want you to be concrete about what you don't like
X-tra:
There is a command [highlight]-cam[/code] or [highlight]-c[/code] to make camera height 1500.
There are no screenshots, because I don't have program to process it (I am actually getting it right now).

Ok, here's some sort of "review" for this map :

[+] It's kinda good representer of American continet from far time away.
[+] Kinda good use of Raise tool
[+] Nice water

[-] Size is too small. This size of map is only suitable for some hero arenas or one-lane AoS (but maybe that's what you making - but suggesting by title, it's not)
[-] Undetailed - good terrains needs good details.
[-] Weird placed trees, random objects without purpose and without any road (no matther what age was, I suppose that there were some roads at least) ...

I give 2/5, but this terrain needs some work :)
GL in future =)

Thanks! Exactly what I needed: everything specified and commented! I will keep your suggestions in mind when improving terrain!

"also known as" can be abbreivated to AKA. It just looks more professional.

There is a lot you could improve, especially in regards to the water and the cliff, I mean:

(insert screenshot later if I am bothered)

The water is squared off? (Really, I'll get a screenshot in like 7 hours)

In the 15th century, I doubt that there would still be a huge flood in the east. I mean, in 500 years the water couldn't disappear, I think there should be more land.

IMO its not bad enough to have a 1/5.
My rating is 3/5, and approval if some changes are made to look a bit more like North America.

Hmmm... I already told you before that terrain don't look like North America a all...
images

Check picture below, it's Mexico, no room for more units...

Other than that that terrain is really simple, tiles are really bad, trees are spammed all over place as well as ice blocks...

And because you didn't make any progress last few weeks I will set map status to rejected!
Please just update this one if you improve map and send map mods message so we can unlock thread for you!
Thanks and have a nice day!
