no offence....


but this terrain looks like there was almost no effort put into it. Here is why :

1) NO height variation at ALL. very flat.
2) MONO tilesets.... everything is just one tileset. it looks horribly plain.
3) there are no doodad variation. just a shitload of trees and 1 or 2 rocks....not that good.

The only good picture was the one with the town...which isn't all that good, but if i were to compare them all...

But yes i know its your first project, but please do yourself and everyone a favor, and dont release a poorly made map to the public, untill your terrain is better.

thanks for the tips, but we want to make a bigger orpg with more islands like barrens, a ice island... its hard because i use Jass NewGen Pack and i only can use like 8 Tileset's.
is there a another program who can make more tileset's?

 

[Fanta-Freak]

Big improvements soon! but if there's any way to get unlimited tileset's i would be VERY GLAD for that.

if you have the NewJen package, then you should also have UMSWE with it.

Go to the UMSWE drag down menu, then go to "edit tileset " and you should be able to add more tiles. For the best tile variation just use tiles that have take up 1 slot instead of 2 slots. that way u can have up to about 14 -16 tiles.

Ouch! I would watch your words, it isn't nice. At least you gave him some tips, i don't have anything else in mind that Tdhx didn't say.

The thing that stands out most to me is the lack of tile variation and small ground clutter.

looks like this is a WIP the terrain looks unfinished and it doesnt look that intresting. the first screen all i see are trees a small river and a waterfall but no shrubs or other doodads or critters its just emty

 

[Piwlady]

Ground is too plain, You use only one kind of trees... i think terrain is not detailed enough :S try to imporve. You got good ideas but i feel sorry to say initialization needs a lot of polishing. But keep it up

Empty. Repetetive. Unoriginal. Bleak. Plain.
