WC3 Town

[Belgarath]

Finally some new terrain, after being inactive for something like 2 months.
Its loosely based on Oblivion's town of Anvil.
Tell me what you think.
Added two new screens, changed a lot of things.
Added more screens.

These are WIPs, not completed works.

Added a Rolling Grasslands picture. It has nothing to do with the other pictures

You have too litle terrain variation.
You should add some other terrain types here and there, and there is random grass growing out of the roads with no soil or grass beneath them. And I think that pink flower sorta doesnt match the depressing theme. I'm probably being a bit picky though...

 

[Koopa124]

Ok doing ok, but, NEEEEEDS TILE VARIATION.


AND MOOOOORE DOOOOODADS.



Argh

 

[Lord_Nor]

I lol'd. Doesn't realize your a more seasoned terrainer than he. Koopa124 please post like a mature person. Caps lock is not a good tool for forums. Neither are the huge gaps.

Revised post:
It's an OK terrain, but it needs tile variation and more doodads.

Good to see you back! It's plain, very plain. The models are nice, but they won't save it. This looks like a WIP, please add more. This is not up to your usual standards.

 

[Dracula]

maybe you can use people instead of doodads since its a town.

 

[Gilles]

Could, but generally unit models are ugly.

 

[Belgarath]

It IS a WIP! Have you guys actually realized the floor is a doodad too??
Edit: Forgot to say, the floor was there to overbridge, since I just didn't want to do the floor yet
Working on it now.

 

[Gilles]

You never stated it was.

I thought it was a custom tile. Didn't really look closely.

 

[Elfsilver Lord]

It looks cold and lifeless right now.

Add enviromentals and fog, set up an atomsphere. Put critters around, and put in trees. Lots of trees and shrubs.

 

[Bob27]

It looks really flat atm. Especially in the 1st and 3rd screenshots, I can't see any height variation there at all. Also in the 4th screenshot, the building in the background looks like its floating in the background, you need to either lower the building, add some doodad there so its not floating or raise the terrain.

And yea, more tile variation, there shouldn't be grass growing out of the roads, and you should add some more units, so it doesn't look so dead. It also looks very empty, add a lot more doodads around the place, like crates and barrels and things like that.

Oh and I may be wrong, but i'm pretty sure you have the window pieces the wrong way round

 

[Gilles]

The windows seem fine to me. They go either way!

 

[Oziris]

ugly,ugly,ugly really emty and tilet is bad i dont like this at all no fog,rain :-(

 

[Belgarath]

Added two new shots. People, remember these are WIPs, I wrote it now too!

 

[Belgarath]

*update*
Started on the whole town, I've nearly finished a corner, well sort of, there's still to be a house there.

 

[Kaitech[SanD]]

I never thought that you'd get ever so much height variation or tile variation is a town...

Anyways, nice to see you back and terraining!

 

[Oziris]

Not bad beether then the other ones that have the same tilest over and over again.The hauses dont fit in.Add fog and rain plz.

 

[Mor)L(unE]

IT looks very sober, perhaps you need to add some more doodads like chests and crates or carts

 

[Gilles]

Shouldn't double post, you know better Belgarath. Better, much better. Although I've never seen so many willows in one area. It looks odd to me. I suggest adding only one large one, make it the center of attention. Add detail around it. Maybe some water to look like a marsh.

The city looks much better. Especially with the new tiles. Good doodad placement and usage.

 

[Craka_J]

Looks really plain. Needs better tilevariation and hill variation. Though the land is preferabley flat in city areas, back in medival times, they didn't level the ground very much. That is why, when making medieval style terrains, you must use good hill variation.

[Deathcom3s]

Looks plain and lifeless, is the ground a tile or a doodad, i can't really tell. ATM it could use some work.
