Could you make it with lots of water away from the islands for water building purposes?

[QUOTE=chill_dude;19860757]Could you make it with lots of water away from the islands for water building purposes?[/QUOTE] I will see what I can do, There's a good amount of water now but I will see if I can add more.

Here is for the user asking about the water: [IMG]http://img693.imageshack.us/img693/6435/bump0005.jpg[/IMG] Thats how much water I have so far. ______________________________ Question for other mappers: For my 3d skybox, at the edges of my map I have displacements of hills. How would i go about making it sew but flat without having a huge cliff when I click sew?

Those trees look terrible; as was said before, rotate them at random angles on their z axis and it will get rid of the incessant 'tiling' as they are all in line.

Take half of the trees and lower them into the ground, this will give the forest height variation.

[QUOTE=LieCake;19870476]Take half of the trees and lower them into the ground, this will give the forest height variation.[/QUOTE] Can't do that since the branches would be close to the ground. I will look into it but I don't think that will work.

Can't say i like it too much, the name doesn't fit it very well, doesn't look "Wild" at all.

Looks pretty cool, keep it up

This looks nothing like a forest, nor is it very wild. How about you use references for once inside of duplicated trees over and over. Bland doesn't even describe how ridiculously un-motivating map is. [url]http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/?a=view&id=38281[/url] -Great example of how a forest should be with its own custom content.

Add some bushes.

[QUOTE=Terragen;19877911]Block-O-Useless Text[/QUOTE] I wasn't yelling. Also I don't care how WIP it is, someone is bound to come into a thread and tell the truth. So don't be offended and go First off, Second off, Third off. Cause your acting like a child. P.S. THIS IS YELLING BTW. P.S.S. Everything I said in my post was my honest opinion and I don't care if you asked me if it was motivating. P.S.S.S. I love you.

Plus haha i did not mean to sound childish, thats just usually how i type things out, a habit i guess. Anyways thanks and I will try to fix the above stated concerns. P.S. Love you too lol

Have started working on this again, Here is an updated picture: [IMG]http://img693.imageshack.us/img693/5149/bump0006.jpg[/IMG] [b]Things yet to be added:[/b] - 3D skybox - Vegetation - Variation of trees - New Cabin - Some more buildings. (feel free to opt in ideas for them)

Perhaps some cliffs behind some parts of the trees? This with a 3D skybox would look good.

[QUOTE=LemurMan;24534759]Perhaps some cliffs behind some parts of the trees? This with a 3D skybox would look good.[/QUOTE] Yea I think I am going to add some cliffs too.

How 'bout you expand it and make the elevation go up a bit, and add some snowy areas. Also, I want a great big mountain in the background.

[QUOTE=Blah360;24535424]How 'bout you expand it and make the elevation go up a bit, and add some snowy areas. Also, I want a great big mountain in the background.[/QUOTE] Yea, not a bad idea. I will see if I can cook up something like that.

The only thing offputting about it is the fact that the forest is repetitive and bland. Just finish the vegetation and whatnot and you're good to go.

Looks more like Gm_WildLake_V3 to me

I really wanna swim in that lake :o Yeah, with a cabin and a 3d skybox, and fish in the lake, this could be awesome

[QUOTE=MILKE;24547309]Looks more like Gm_WildLake_V3 to me[/QUOTE] This has been in progress before wildlake. They look nothing alike anyways.

[QUOTE=Terragen;24568119]This has been in progress before wildlake. They look nothing alike anyways.[/QUOTE] I could be wrong, but it looked as if he was saying it seems more like wildlake than wildforest because there's hardly a forest.

You really need some custom tree models. They currently look identical, which results in a pretty boring forest.
