I only say that because I am **** at it. Just kidding. (sorta)

Here we go. I kept my promise! Here are some screenies of the map.

Thats all for now. Trust me though, its turning out pretty cool.
Blakejr tells me I am biased when I say that.

I cant imagine why.

Actually, I'm saying that you (are biased)

LOL! If I correct my mistake I must certainly fix yours!

Looking good mate, now set your fog colour to match the lower section of your sky dome

Wont that make it looks kind of funny when your looking out torwards land though? It just seems kind of funny to me.

Looking good, It's nice to see your progression from all nine pages at once. I remember my first attempt at a map....

...and I don't wanna talk about it.

LOL And we relate on the same scale here. My first " masterpeice" looked like a pile of dog ****.

Dont take it too serious, and experiment. Thats what I did, then you start wanting to learn specifics. This is only my second try at a map, but I only work on it when I feel like it, and it works great for me.

the fog needs to matchthe bottom of the skydome or it will look really wired, like it dose at the mo.

also looks like you need to fix your low detail maps.

Not quite sure whats wrong with the low detail maps, but how should I fix it?

do a search in user tuts for lowdetail maps and u will find a tut on how to do it.

Im not quite sure I understand what your saying. Their is a big difference in vegitated type maps and urban maps, usually neither are combined. Im glad you like it though.

search in the forums you will find the lowdetail tutorial Dylan...its a long explanation so better to just search it your slef...MSN me if you really dont get something..

Yeah, nice so far, Dylan.

Your lowdetailtextures do look a bit wierd though, looks too blurry and featureless.

Dylan · Post by **Dylan** » 2006-10-06 23:48

I fixed it. I had the grass at 3 (lol) but it was supposed to be at 1. I talked to Rhino about it and it made a big difference. Im working on texturing around the buildings a bit so they arent sitting in mud.

Dylan · Post by **Dylan** » 2006-10-07 01:37

The fog color is tweaked...I think it looks "funky" because now its not fog, but it blends into the background a bit better. Was it worth it?

EDITED!!!

Dylan · Post by **Dylan** » 2006-10-07 07:09

bump. I added ambient noises now, and they work really well. I just have minor tweaking to do and they will be perfect.

Griffon2-6 · Post by **Griffon2-6** » 2006-10-07 14:09

Fog color looks very nice. So after this, you're gonna be an R-COD? As in, R-CON and R-MOD? Ahahahahahaha...hahahaha....haha..ha. Ok, I'll shut up.
