Roman Temple

[Wolfhelm]

I thought i would try to make somthing realistic as possible cuz most of my terrains dont look like anything on Earth.

I didnt decide on a camera angle till after i made temple and terrain so its pretty much playable not that i plan to make anything with it.

Comments, critisism whatever..

Megafyr you started a trend with those dark rocks.

Christ, everyone makes stuff orange now. I'm going to go ahead and make some kickass blue terrain for TC7 to prove you all wrong xD

 

[Wolfhelm]

Yes i ripped off Mega his enviroments own!
Everything i ever made has been green blue or red so i thought i would switch it up ^^

 

[Megafyr]

You have to admit it void. Dark rocks are so damn sexy with an orange sun! No blueness could ever beat that! xD

On topic:

Could use some tinting work, the trees and the grasses stick out to much. The temple is nice.

 

[Oziris]

Uh Wolfhelm, i don't want to be a cock sucker, but the mountains are really bad, you can do a better background then that? btw, your tinting is all wrong, the temple should be dark and should have a shadow, and the rest of the models.
This isn't the best you can do, i know.
-You just fail to make realistic.

PS: END OF MAP, just terrible.

 

[Wolfhelm]

Lol ok...

I agree those pine trees stick out real bad - its like fog has no effect on them. The background could go back further in the distance but other then that i dont see whats wrong. Also temple looks fine why should it be darker?

 

[~Void~]

Yeah um Oziris, greek temples were made out of white marble. White marble doesn't really tend to be... dark.

Anyways, the reason those trees stick out so badly is because the terrain is so goddamn variated, the entire thing would be naturally impossible to occur unless it was all made out of solid rock. You should flatten it out a lot, or add more rocks on those cliffs.

 

[Oziris]

Yea, only when the sun is behind an object the object is bright from the back and light from the front!! get it know? he was talking about realistic so i gave him a reason that this terrain isn't half as realistic, no hard felling.

 

[~Void~]

I don't have hard feelings, I just think you're a complete and total nuisance.

Do you honestly expect me to like you after cheating on 3 terrain contests?

 

[Wolfhelm]

Lawl.

Anyways there is a bright light coming out of the temple because there is lights inside - does that make sense?

Oh and there is rocks sticking out of the hills but i guess i see what you mean Void, perhaps i will add some more.

Wolfhelm, did you not say you are trying to make the terrain more realistic? how is some light from a temple suppose to be realistic >,>

 

[~Void~]

Those are at night. Maybe the best option would be just to raise the sun a little so people stop QQing.

Also Oziris, you clearly haven't learned your lesson because you still find some way to get on my nerves. So stop please. You can make your suggestions, I'm fine with that, just don't be such a cunt about it.

Thats a dumb remark... When the temples where used in ancient times there was torches and such inside them thus there is light coming out the entrance.

 

[Ham Ham]

IT just misses a shadow for the temple. Everything also is lovely

 

[~Void~]

Actually, most of the entire screenshot would be in shadow because of the horizon.

 

[Wolfhelm]

Ok fine ill raise the damn sun! xP

 

[Belgarath]

Yeah um Oziris, greek temples

what've you been smoking? This is a Roman one

Environment needs work, the hills are pretty bad. Try using a different grass, such as the big shrubs, with some more fitting trees, ie., summer/spring pines, maybe even autumn. Cool temple + good tiles, but the shadowed rocks aren't placed right :/

PS turn on anti aliasing, it makes things look so much better, you people will never understand...

 

[~Void~]

No, this is a greek temple. All roman temples are greek temples, they are one and the same thing. In fact, just about everything roman from about 400BC on was taken from the greeks. Stuff before that was mostly Etruscan or Latin, and stuff after that was made by inbred psychopaths, but still slightly greek.

LERN UR HIZTORY NOOB LAWAWLAWL.

Anyways, to prove what I'm saying, here's a Roman temple (I've actually been to this exact one)

And here's a Greek temple. The inside's a little busted up but you get the idea.

The only major architectural difference is the fact that Greek temples do not have solid walls around the inside rooms, whereas this Roman temple does. This is probably because it's a lot hotter on Greek islands than it is in France.

 

[Oziris]

I agree with Belgarath, Keji's terrain looks more like Roman, not greek xD

 

[~Void~]

One this is Wolfhelm's terrain, two you're only disagreeing with me for the sake of disagreeing with me. I know this because I just provided factual evidence that both roman temples and greek temples are pretty much the same, I've taken two years of classes on ancient greece and rome, I know what I'm talking about here.

 

[Eleandor]

The stairs are typical for a roman temple.

France

Italy...

The columns are typical Ionic though, which wasn't used that much in the Roman age.

By the way: what the hell is a temple doing lonely on a hill? Neither Romans nor Greek made temples in the middle of nowhere

 

[~Void~]

No, France. That temple is in Nimes, a town in Provence. FFS I even said I'd been to it myself... I'm not stupid...
