Provision Point

[Celaquil]

So, this will be the final thread about this map before it is finalized, from this point on it is all about polishing and detail work, as most of the large bulks of the map is done. When the map is completed, I will, naturally, post a final thread with the map file attached to it for you to regard, and use as you see fit

This will be the north western corner of the map, and the small fishing village called "Provision Point" mostly due to the fact that this is the only income of food-ish village on the island, with the village there also comes a forest, and a updated shot of the spot right in front of Wreckcove Harbour.

Hope you like it

I will add here a list of all the previous threads about separate parts of the map:

Very nice. Looks fantastic to me.

 

[Adiktuz]

really nice... so its a template not a playable map?

There are some minor flaws like stretched rocks and strange placed doodads, but this is not exactly a thing to accuse you for, because it's not a one-shot map after all.
So let me emphasis how much I like you... uhm, your work.
The atmosphere is great, and I could point out why, but I guess you know it. Now I can really imagine walking trough those little street with the drying clothes above my head.

I could add more, but I settle with: Great job.

Looks really great, the usage of RedShift's textures and the other doodads is quite lovely.
But weren't you adding a type of dark acolyte monastary, or something? Or did you scrap that?

 

[Celaquil]

Thank you all for lovely commentaries
- Though please do me the favour of pointing out those "misplaced doodads" M0rbid.

Also, yes Fan, I have added a one such spot to the map, which can be previewed in my "Saga Ruins" thread,
I've listed all the previous terrain previews in the main post for rephranse sake, and to boost my own biased ego

Anyways, still hoping for some comments and ciricism

Strange - placed is not equivalent to misplaced for me.
I was referring to this rock on the right downside of this screen for example: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...7882d1320540220-provision-point-harbor-21.jpg
Seeing it with the tile variation under it feels a bit strange for me. Might not be the most natural look somehow. But you know I am a picky prick.

Also: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...7883d1320540220-provision-point-harbor-22.jpg Here is grass growing on the stone, which does not look bad in the first place. But after a second look I wonder how that is possible. (Keiji's green thumb, maybe)

Now the site is backing up and I kind find more examples right now really, so I hope those do it. Again note: I am a picky prick

 

[Zorrot]

Quiet good.
I hope it can be down QUAKLY.

Epic terrain indeed.

I have extraordinarily green fingers, and you know it.
- I'll also have a look into that rock tile thing.

Thank you for taking the time ^^

I really like it, looks nearly flawless. I'm just not liking the pointy ground edges in the first picture. If I'm not mistaken, that tile your using is parquet which is wood. And If I know well, wood cant bend to that certain point. Good work nevertheless.

Few questions:
- Can you tell me will you upload map into thw map section (terrain/template type)?
- Some stuff like map size, number of imported resources, size?
- Is it playable?

 

[Celaquil]

Few Answers:

- I adressed that in the main post, I will be publishing it, attaching it as a file, in the main post of the final thread. Though I don't think I will upload it as a template, unless I can do so without it having to prove to be too bothersome.
- Map size is roughly, or exactly, 96x96. And when doodads are concerned, there is no real way to tell yet, as the map is not completed, but I am currently at 4299, and I won't bother to go on about imports, or well the map size is currently 15.2 MB.
- It can be, if you will bother to do the hazardous job of placing pathing blockers and bridge elevation shit like that, I know I won't.

Anyways, as a little easter egg while you wait, have a look at my finely added lone fisherman on the outskirts of the city

 

[-Kobas-]

Saw that but I was interested in map section, oket, np. Thanks for answers

WOW, this looks realy good. To bad wc3 doesn't have a better graphics engine but I guess that's the beauty of it. I also saw your other maps: Saga Ruins, The Spyglass, WreckCove Harbor, etc. So this is supposed to be a sort of map template, right?! Didn't know you were into the playable map type of terrainig. It's clear that it's not a playable map because of the large nember of doodads, --- for those that are still asking this question.
I like your imagination on harbour themes, the atmosphere is also good.

If there any models you want for terraining, I could give you some more!

Really good work! Honestly I don't think I have anything to criticize. If I were to try and find flaws, it would only be for the sake of finding flaws, which is a waste of both our times. It's simply good work.
