Lordaeron Fall Poll

[Rui]

Welcome to the
Terraining Challenge's Lordaeron Fall Tileset Poll

Bob27 has submitted 3 images. A terrain with a natural feeling, although Blizzard-like tilesets are usually not the preferred.

---

Gilles has submitted 2 images. A Barrens-like terrain using the contest tileset. Will it work?

---

Jaakko has submitted 3 images. The atmosphere is pretty good. Will the creator win another tileset?
His submissions...

---

Nbah has submitted 3 images. A house, which many would call home... or not.

---

MadseN has submitted 1 image. Although it's a single image, it might prove to be better than multiple pictures.

---

~Void~ has submitted 1 image. Orc territory he named it.

I'm going to vote for MadSen here. The amount of detail on the background is stunning, as is the realism of the pathway. I like the lighting on it too The only thing I feel I have to say is that you could have added more onto the dark foreground of the image. Currently, only the very bottom edge of the image shows something that actually contrasts with the image.

Comments on other terrainers:
@Bob27: Looks great from what I can see at the third image. The only thing I had against it were the amount of doodads spent on the hills. There aren't any. Maybe some rocks or rubble not yet fallen would have made a better effect?

@Gilles: Great effort, and I especially like the tree house.

Argh... I'ma have to end this post here.... gtg :\ I'll edit this post with more critique later

 

[Gilles]

MadseN hands down. Doesn't even look like warcraft anymore. His ability to create atmosphere is amazing.

Jaakko had two very good submissions though! The second was pretty poor, but the last made up for it. The first was pretty good. Nothing amazing. He deserves second.

Me third. I never got to finish it due to it corrupting.

Voids was pretty good, although I thought the bridge was ugly. It's an awesome model, but it looked bad in that atmosphere. You should have made it out of doodads! Would have been way better IMO. It was a solid terrain, pretty close to mine.

Bob27, much too plain. I liked the castle though.

 

[madcat2]

Madsen's is amazing

 

[Rui]

I vote for Jaakko on this one, the last picture totally owned.

By the way, Jaakko, if you see this, please consider attaching the images instead of the map.

 

[madcat2]

Jaakko's last one was pretty good, but it just didn't scream out to me 0_0.

Ya good idea, thanks.

 

[~Void~]

MadseN is just creepy... second best terrainer I know. (first is that guy who made the robot, forget his name)

 

[Gilles]

Corexx. He is good, but I would consider MadseN his superior. I would consider Corexx and Tassadoom around the same.

 

[Deleted member 126647]

Madsen definitely.

 

[Gilles]

Haha, void you voted for yourself!

 

[~Void~]

Is that against the rules?

 

[Gilles]

Not sure. More taboo I think.

 

[Jaakko]

By the way, Jaakko, if you see this, please consider attaching the images instead of the map.

Wasn't it one of your rules to attach the map?

 

[Eleandor]

Since madsen is first anyway, I'm casting my vote on Void for second place.

 

[Aeroblyctos]

I voted for ~Void~. Why? His pictures are the best.

MadseN has also good terrain, but only 1 picture. Next time, MadseN, I suggest you to put at least 4 pictures so we can see more about your terrain.

Void only had one picture as well. :\

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Ohh hell I watched wrong!

Whatever, I still vote for ~Void~.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

I liked them all,but MadseN's beats them all.

 

[Oziris]

MadseN i really like u.The background is really really....i dont have words for this !!! i am gona rep u.Bob27 it's not really special or something.Gilly i see some flying rocks Nbah....hmmm.... ther are really really much stuff with lot's of color i dont like it i dont really see anything in it.~Void~ i dont think the grass fit's in all of that mybe some fog an rain?Jaakko i only like the first 2.The third picture, hmm well ther is grass coming out of the bridge and the stair dont fit i see the rest is good.

 

[Nbah]

Hmmm... Say what you want about MadseN but my vote goes to Jaakko. His last picture totaly owned.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

I am really surprised that no votes went to Bob27.Yes his terrain was a bit empty but I think it is just ok for the viewer.Actually I would top this No.2

 

[Gilles]

I wouldn't have said number two, but not last either. The atmosphere was good, and the keep was pretty cool. Just too plain as you said.

 

[overload119]

I really like Voids.!

 

[~Void~]

Not sure. More taboo I think.

Not like I'm going to win xD

Edit: I don't really like jaako's third picture. I actually like the second one the best. The use of fog and sky and the light from above doodad on the third picture is just appalling, makes me want to slap Jaako for ruining a potentially awesome terrain.

 

[Gilles]

Yeah, except before you were the single vote that put you ahead of me. Now you're pulling ahead. It does not matter. : )

 

[Elven_God]

I will vote for MadseN but the third picture of Jaakko is very very good.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Don't forget that MadseN isn't here.he is in the army.

 

[Super-Sheep]

Hmngg... I voted for ~Void~

 

[Rui]

I would like to ask the contesters if I can use your terrains for Dawn and Twilight. I mean, not the actual terrain, just the screenshot. To describe how a region/village/city would look like.
Thanks.

 

[Gilles]

Sure.

What is dawn and twilight?

 

[Rui]

Just a story of mine. It's on the Roleplaying section but it's really unorganized right now.

 

[~Void~]

Yeah, except before you were the single vote that put you ahead of me. Now you're pulling ahead. It does not matter. : )

We don't get anything for second place xD

 

[Gilles]

You get second place!

 

[Belgarath]

Voted for Bob. He has the most natural feeling, I didn't wanna vote for MadseN, but I was pretty close to voting for ~Void~. They had the most natural terrains, as in, without fancy uber lighting, tiny cities and forests, but rather ordinary sights throughout Warcraft. I like those terrains - but not making them - because it IS Warcraft, after all.
And that was my way of voting in this poll.

 

[Rui]

The poll's ending date was wrong (should have been 14 days). I'll declare MadseN the winner of the Lordaeron Fall tileset.

I'll be presenting the final results of the contest on the Terraining Challenge thread.
