Craka_J's Terrain Showcase

[kebabmeat]

really nice terrain you got there

 

[13ack.Stab]

Geez, awesome terrain!

They remind me of Morrowind. A lot. Great work, keep it up!

 

[Craka_J]

New terrain. Did this one just as a showcase, an experiment with making forests with High Resolution doodads.

Go with the second. I like the blur more now.

 

[Nudl9]

Wow, these terrain screenies look nice.
Btw by RPG do you mean that this map is actually playable?
i really like the idea by these huts

I just gotta admit they look awesome!

 

[Gilles]

This latest one is not playable I'm pretty sure. Craka was working on an RPG, but it's on hold, or maybe he deleted it.

Those huts are a really good idea! I may copy that sometime.

 

[Craka_J]

The latest one is a high-res campaign RPG I terrain when I'm in the mood to terrain high-res stuff. Not really a playable area yet, but since a developer wants to check it out in the editor, I'll probably work on it a bit more. Expect some more high-res screenshots.

And yes Nudl9, that is a playable RPG. And those huts were made out of a rock doodad, a hay pile, and another rock I believe for the door-knob. Glad you like them!

[Death] was interested in seeing my first terrains. So I decided to post them here! I first started terraining around Febuary and March, 2004.

• First terrain is my first WarCraft III terrain ever made!
• Second terrain is my second terrain ever made for WarCraft III. Was inspired by a beach terrain I saw a long time ago.
• Third terrain was my third created terrain ever for WarCraft III. This one was inspired by the movie "Jeepers Creepers" I think.

to a first terrain that is really impressive...

Mine first terrains were with blizzard cliffs!

 

[Craka_J]

I like the good tile variation. It impresses myself that I worked with tiles that well back then!

[Oziris]

These pictures RULE!!!!

 

[Serbianbeast]

Military-town, modern pictures are not wc3. They can't be! i mean cmon, how much time did you need to do that??

btw i really need to know how do you set Z ofsset of doodads. And i need you to tell me what hi-rez doodads you were using in 1st screens set. Oh and i would add more rep if i could.

 

[Naze]

I don't think that here is the right place to ask for this but most of the doodads (like trees) you can find at the Ultimate Terrainning Map 2. You can download it at one of the first threads of the Terrainning Forum.

 

[Craka_J]

I used Born2Modificate's doodads which can be found at www.wc3campaigns.net
He released an expansion to this high res set of doodads a few months ago, I recommend you use those too.

Thanks for the compliments and rep! I'll try to get more soon.

omg CRACKA_J FTW!!!! Really REALLY nice terrian....man i wish i can make my terrian look like yours XD

 

[Mor)L(unE]

Then id' suggest you practice alot

 

[HolyRider]

Very nice.. indeed.
I have just one question

Do you make your own models or are they downloadable somwhere???

+rep

 

[Craka_J]

I either download them from somewhere such as The Hive Workshop or Wc3Campaigns OR I find modelers to make models and other resources exclusively for my maps/mods/projects.

[Gilles]

Just use the UTM. Found here.

 

[Deathcom3s]

Very nice craka! those screens are awesome! way better than anything i've done. +imaginary rep!

 

[Craka_J]

UTM is great, but it doesn't suit all of my needs.

~Craka_J

 

[Gilles]

Well except for High-Res, I think the UTM covers enough. There are so many doodads in it you couldn't even host it on B-Net.

 

[Naze]

As you said, Craka, some of these terrains are old and flat, but in my opinion, they are "nice flated" (if that word exists =P)

Like, they're flat, but they just look like a real forest/grove etc. Sometimes your terrains need to be flat to look real.

nice terrain dude!
