Terraining Contest - Ashenvale Tileset[Dead]

[Timmay]

While it doesn't look like it, this piece was made in the City Scape tileset. The actual city part is in a different part of the map.

 

[Waldbaer]

Well, it's not bad, but
-I don't think it's a good idea to make a forest scene using the cityscape tileset. You can't use the strengthes of the tileset, e.g. you have not many possibilities to vary the terrain textures, simply because there aren't many.
-Be aware of the graphic bugs if you slope cliffs
-Try to avoid flying water(falls)

Nice use of doodads!

People stop posting screenshots of other tilesets, or I'll ask Dark Shadow to close the contest.

Cityscape is the tileset I not good at, maybe even my worst tileset.

I made one screenshot of the terrain, but I think it will not be a winner. 8)

 

[Killer_Mushroom]

Post it anyways.

 

[Hemlock]

About the pic, I have my doubts.

About the contest: did everybody quite?

 

[Timmay]

I made this map using the Cityscape tileset, but none of the pictures look like it. I intended to have a mountain city, but I haven't quite got to it yet.

 

[Restor]

well, it is not typical representative of city tileset

Very nice restor!

 

[VGsatomi]

All this was done on cityscape tileset

[Hemlock]

That is like a monster custom doodad unit map.

nice screens, though I don't like custom doodad useage that much.

 

[Waldbaer]

Well restor, I think the only interesting thing with your screenshot is the perspective of view... :?
There are nearly no doodads except the custom model trees, no variations in textures. Just some human buildings don't make a city and even less one that uses the cityscape tileset.

 

[Killer_Mushroom]

Terrainers should start posting pictures of 'cityscapes.' Save the grassy countrysides and mountain villages for Lordaeron and Village tilesets. I have not seen even a hint of a city tile in the last few screenshots. To the average eye, they would look like a village summer terrain with a modified tilest. Despite that fact, excellent terrains.

 

[Rui]

@Restor: As Waldbar said, you should play a bit more with the ground textures.
@VGsatomi: That's cool . That assassin is deadly :shock:

Wow I thought this thread died long ago haha. Hmm..were still on Cityscape? It really does look more like village. VERY nice though, but not much of a city look. There really good though, there's some good terrainers in this contest.

 

[Hemlock]

I would like to contibute some, but if this thread is a bit dead than I would not bother, since the revies would be low and the judges comment also.

 

[Jacek]

What do you think?

(how do you remove menu bar???)

 

[Waldbaer]

Looks nice, but quite simple because you used too many doodads of the same type at one place, I think. And the waterfall has an odd position because there is no cliff to see and it looks as if it stands in the plain coming out of the air. 8)

What do you mean with the menu bar? If you want to cut the whole user interface except the part in game view copy it and paste it in Paint. Move it to the top left edge so that everything you don't want is outside the image. Then move the bottom right edge until everything you don't want to have is outside also. Save and everything is cropped.

The temple is made with cityscape doodads, just ignore the background.

 

[Waldbaer]

Looks not bad.
Does it also have a nice inside? Post some images!

 

[2-P]

Eh... the inside...

Well it still looks kinda empty. *lack of creativity lately*

So any suggestions are very welcome. The temple is made for a cinematic.

 

[Restor]

well, i think this was city tileset but i think so

only one import is the watterfall which is useless.

 

[Rui]

That is an island. I like the Fountain, 2-P.

 

[Trashbite]

I'm pretty new to these forums (ofcourse I've seen a lot of models and already read a lot as a guest ), but I sure like teraining a lot so I made a city myself. It took me around 2-3 days and it's actually not finished yet, but I had an error in World Editor while I was saving, so now I guess it didn't save, but I can't even open the map, like as if it was protected . Luckily all I need is screenshots and those I have, although the names aren't really fitting. The armory doesn't really look like an armory yet, exept of the sign outside the door and the marketplace is just a group of houses with a pub and a walking space, but I didn't knew the english word for the circle ground so thats why it's called marketplace, was the word that first came up in me but it's not the right one :? .


Cityscape Armory
Cityscape Bandit Camp
Cityscape Cathedral
Cityscape Entrance
Cityscape Entrance 2
Cityscape Guard
Cityscape Fountain
Cityscape Poor Graveyard
Cityscape Pub
Cityscape Rich Graveyard
Cityscape Houses
Cityscape Houses 2
Cityscape Marketplace
Cityscape Overview

P.S. - I absolutely LOVE that temple and the fountain! That is just amazing . Good job!

 

[MAP MASTER]

i am wondering if i can join because im makeing a pretty cool terrain map but 1 prob how do u get the picture to a save as file and how do u get it to the right position and snap it?

 

[Killer_Mushroom]

To take a screenshot ingame or in the World Editor, press the "print screen" button (it should be next to backspace.) Then open your screenshot folder, which is located in your Warcraft 3 folder, and search for the correct file among your screenshots. If you cannot open the files, download Irfanview from the tools section.
To find the correct camera angle, simply hold your Ctrl key down, and drag your right mouse button around your screen. If the sky is zoomed to close, hold Ctrl and roll in/roll out. To zoom in or out, use Shift and right click.
