But it takes too long for just testing...stuff
I'd love to join! Just need a partner... prferably someone who knows the difference between the creation and the selection tools in Hammer :P
Hey wait, is there a specific time we have to create this in? Like medieval, tribal, future, modern, etc? And if it's futuristic/modern, can it be an artificial island (made outta metal)?
Hey loli, wanna be buddies?
[QUOTE=oskutin;24470422]Other teams should post pics too.[/QUOTE]
We haven't got much more than concept art.. We want to have a clear idea of who's doing what, and make a co-ordinated effort rather than both of us being detrimental to development..
Here's a couple of low quality shots, I'll get a scanner soon:

Yea, I'm not the most artistic person in the world.
BJK, I still dislike your grass texture. It's a strange pastel green.
I'm not much of a fan of that path either. It looks like it has been made by a group of wandering cows that ate something dodgy the night before.
Pics tomorrow, but I darkened/fixed the grass and gave the dirt a dark reddish color so it is more....Hawaiian.

Something perfectly fertile for farming.
Brilliant! That was the second most offputting thing!
Hurray for Scanners!

I love the water coloured concept pics. Haven't seen someone do that in a long time and last time I did see it, it was done by an actual game dev team.
It's great, it looks like a landscaping plan.
N'aww, thanks guys... more to come in a day or two.
I'll join but need partner :sigh:
I hate working with 2 people.

No offense but the ground texture looks like ass.
Looks fine in my opinion. Looks damn good actually. Maybe it'd be better with more detail, but the color and way that it's applied is great.
Messed with the texture colour a bit (no HDR) But I don't find it too much better, but perhaps not as ridiculous as the old with HDR on.

Is anyone gonna be mah buddy?
Preferably a person who is good with displacements since I'm good with Brushwork and I/O
Path looks worse IMO.
The path was fine, it was only the sickly green that needed changing.
BJK, I don't really know what to say about your map.
Personally I don't like it. It's kind of confused. It's supposed to be on an island, and a hot one judging by the island, yet there are ferns growing everywhere amongst the pine trees. Maybe there are places that have that, but in your map, probably in Source, it looks like ass. The ground texture is so bright compared to the sprites, it's horrific. It looks like sick. Then you have bamboo huts next to a farm that looks like it's something out of a supermarket in England. Don't get me wrong, the brushwork is great, the prop placement is great, the displacements are really great, but there are too many themes.
TL;DR the foliage looks like it's from places all over the world.

And, I'm sorry, but it looks like someone's left a trail of diarrhoea behind them and the result was that path.
I disagree.
It looks like milk chocolate.
BJK, add some overlays to your rock outcrops to make it look like the erosion is running downward. The way it looks right now is kinda wonky and sideways.

The texture doesn't even look like grass, dirt, or rock. Its too bright and clean.
Alright a friend of mine suggested gravel would fix the dirt problem, so I toned down the red in the dirt and will only be using it for the farms. Does anyone else agree with the gravel plan though? Edited the grass / rock also.

Looks much better.
Erosion overlays. EROSION OVERLAYS!
Amateur mapper here seeking a partner.
I already have a full map plan ready, just in need of a partner.

And note that most of that stuff is undetailed cause I scrapped both of them projects.
Pretty much BJK is that there is too much contrast in your colors
Lewy, PM somebody in the list.
