Fall Lighthouse

[Belgarath]

Hiya,
three fall lighthouse screen shots; I've also added them to my showcase, accessible through my signature; here they are:


"Fall Lighthouse"

"Fall Lighthouse II"

"Fall Lighthouse III"

 

[Oziris]

It is good add some fog and some rain to look bether!

 

[Belgarath]

Well, Oziris, what do you think the white stuff is?
Fog!

Also, in screen 2, you can see the rain.

It looks good though I am not much into the massing of Blizzard rocks. How long did it take you to make this piece?

 

[Belgarath]

Not sure, I don't keep track of time. Give it a rough guess, around half an hour, I think. Probably less, though. Basically, I have no clue.

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

For around half an hour of work this is very good, though I still think you should find some other way of making rock areas than massing blizzard rocks.

 

[Oziris]

Hmm i dont see the fog,but now when i look bether i can see the rain(Not fog)

 

[Craka_J]

Very, very good Belgarath! Your terrain skill has improved much since your last terrains uploaded.
Fall Lighthouse II is the best one IMO.
+Rep!

Lol reminds me a lot of the lighthouse i posted here a while ago . I like combination of the fog, rain and sky, gives it a nice dreary look.
I'm not a fan of of the clustered rock cliffs either, but they dont look bad in this picture.

*Looks at your Plains of Cacti terrain*

Well, I didn't really mass them, I had to use some careful placement, especially in screens two and three, since I didn't cover the thing from all sides.
dante, your lighthouse inspired me to make these!

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

Massing as in a lot of them placed around eachother. Doesn't look too good.

 

[Gilles]

I find the kind of rocks you used is what doesn't look good. I like using spires not normal ones.

 

[madman9800]

i like it, looks cool, but as others say, the mass rock thingy, not very good.

 

[Oziris]

I think that u should use a Walkabe option!

 

[demonsofdante]

I think that u should use a Walkabe option!

What? Walkable? For a not meant to be playable terrain? Are you daft?

 

[Gilles]

I don't understand either. What's a walkabe?

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

Walk-able. Able to walk on.

 

[Craka_J]

A good example of a walkable doodad is the Mushroom doodad for Ashenvale. The pathing is set to none, thus units can walk on it without collision.

Another good example can be a bridge. Since units can walk across it to get from, lets say, one side of a river to the other.

[Gilles]

I was kidding. I don't understand why you would make something walkable in an art terrain. What do you call a non-playable map?

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

You call it a non-playable map.

 

[EatShrooms]

Very nice, the rain is easy to miss, I'm sure ingame it'd be more obvious since it's animated rather than this still image. The mass amount of rocks could work if you made more variants, custom ones, and add tall bush/grass coming out. Other than that it is definitely good to look at.

 

[Belgarath]

Well, I'm open to any 'variants' for the rocks.
