[•] Some of the rocks on the first pic are a bit "off". I mean, gravity-wise, they would be most likely unable of standing like that on such an abrupt tilt.
Would lowering (pg dwn) fix this problem or should I use entirely different rocks? It isn't really noticeable on a regular game view, but I'll change it anyway.
[•] These trees look cute (the custom ones), but not enough for a terrain to be called "nice!". However, I can't really tell I'm really bothered by them. You of course need to take out the Blizzard basic trees, though.
What's your problem with the custom trees? You say they're cute but then go on to say you're bothered by them?
And for the basic blizzard ones, I did that to fill up the island a bit. It looked empty before and unnatural (barren). The custom trees took up too much room and overlapped on each other since the space on the island is small. What do you suggest I do in order to give the island a "fuller" look?
][•] It lacks details, actually. You need to place more bushes and change the grass tile to something more appealing. This scenery is currently too Warcraft. Good terrains that use only Warcraft III default resources are very rare. It also lacks the weather: Snow (Blizzard). Also, add a couple of Torches in the entrance of that small island and change the time of day to 18.00+.
What grass tile do you recommend? I chose the pale green one since it looked more like tundra grass (trying to make an arid mountain valley). The default warcaft foliage, besides the ones pictured, didn't really fit well with the arid mountain scene I was going for. Do you have any recommendations for custom ones?
And the reason why I'm reluctant to use snow is because it tends to lag (a lot) when playing online. I decided not to use snow weather in order for it to run efficiently online.

First, use that godlike WaterfallFX model (named as Waterfall (2) in utm).
Meh, that waterfall just seems to thin for a mountain waterfall to me. But if you recommend it, I'll try it to see what it looks like. Should I just stack a couple on top of each other?
not bad but i dont think that statue fits with the terrain. said:

What statue would be better then? The custom statues I've seen on here wouldn't fit well with an outdoor setting in my opinion. Do you have a better recommendation?
Thanks everybody for their personal critique! I really appreciate the feedback.
