High Resolution: Forest

[Oziris]

It's a High res forest, i always wanted to make a deep forest like this and i finally did it!

 

[dansaDisco]

just.. Does not look good to me. To messy i guess.

And the blue fog doesn't really fit imo

 

[Oziris]

The forest is messy, what do you think? that there is a guy that cleans the forest up every week? nah, so it should be messy. The blue fog is just natural, it cant be light blue on a night cant it? light blue fog turns into dark blue fog only on nights.

 

[Belgarath]

random plant variation ftl
it seems like you pretty much just absolutely spammed around.
fog turns into blackness at night did you know
needs +realism

 

[Oziris]

It wasn't random, it wasn't spammed. It did not look that good, in most games you see dark blue fog not black fog, look at Oblivion for example. I think the forest cant be more realistic then it is.

 

[dansaDisco]

If the forest can't be more realistic than this one is atm, then thank god for AFK.

 

[Oziris]

You surly don't even know what AFK means don't you? AFK-Away From Keyboard, i did not know GOD had his own keyboard strange.... I said it's hard to improve the forest because it's all ready realistic, and yea you really helped me by telling me : To messy i guess.

Here are some pictures of a messy forest:

AFK = the time I don't spend at the computer, AKA when I'm outside.

I could just have said IRL, but .. yeah. You probably get my point :]

 

[Belgarath]

Have you ever been in a damn forest in real life, has it looked like that? No, I don't think so.
Your forest is NOT realistic, it's far from it. You don't get several dozen types of plants crowding all over the place, basically all in one spot. Take my word on it, your forest is not realistic. It's far from it. Your pictures show that too.

 

[Celaquil]

I am going to quote Void, as I have so many times before; it may be real, but hell, that doesnt mean it looks good.

Really, it looks a bit messy.

 

[Oziris]

All of you are whining how this terrain is bad! Then if it's so bad tell me what to improve at least if it's so Messy as the most of you say it.

 

[Corexx]

Oziris, in general your forest is 'realistic', but you should change some points:

- lift the treetops! They´ve all nearly the same size and look like a wall of leaves. I wonder how daylight will get through there...
- the logs of the trees in the front are too bulky
- tinting the shiny shrubs - they´re way too bright
- delete the torch

Unfornately messy forests doesn´t look good @ Wc3.
You should add some uneveness and place between the trees.

All of you are whining how this terrain is bad! Then if it's so bad tell me what to improve at least if it's so Messy as the most of you say it.

It could look like this:

thats alot more like a forest, its a varation of hights and if we are going realistic go tep out side look at a real tree and see how tall they actualy are most people dont realize most trees are infact about 3 or 4 storys high with alot being taller . . .less undergrouth is better and not flat terrian
like in corexx's forest most forest tend to be based around one type of tree with a few varations survieing. but then again it all depends what type of forest you are going for so . . just base it on a pic of a real one . . thats proberbly the best advice

 

[Ziggen]

I think it looks pretty nice, but then it's the high res that tricks the eye too ;P
But yeah you should probably listen to Corexx since he is the god of high res terrain.

It wasn't random, it wasn't spammed. It did not look that good, in most games you see dark blue fog not black fog, look at Oblivion for example. I think the forest cant be more realistic then it is.

In most games you see things done the wrong way. Fix to dark blue pl0x.

I'd say 100% of the terrainers with entries in the Legendary thread can do things better than most of Blizzard's level designers. Not that that says much, but still.

 

[ArcticInferno]

Corexx, I really like your terrains but I must spread some rep around before giving it to you again >: o

@oziris I think it would look good as a loading screen with a model there or sth, but as a forest terrain it just doesn't make the cut I guess, its not like I would have done any better though.

+rep for time taken

 

[Oziris]

Ok, i added Dark fog and tinted down the models.
Happy? because i don't like the results.

 

[dansaDisco]

AT least, it looks 10x more natural, IMO.

It seemed impossible, but you deserve a +rep for doing that at least

 

[Oziris]

Yeay, another day another rep, yea right!

Edit: I made an update does anyone like them?
