Feedback please..

I liked it but also thought more decals and say some trees or something to look at the terrian is cool just needs more polish.

I'm working on a new map now. I assure you it will be a bit more eyecatching :)

How do you get an overhead shot of the map. I create map and I would like to have an overhead shot of my map.
Thanks Zman

I think he used the printscreen button (on keyboard) while in the editor then just pasted it into photoshop and then resized and saved as a jpg file.

Zman what did you think of the map?

I don't normally leave comments on maps because I've been trying not to post on the forums lately. Since I've been posting a lot, I might as well add a comment to hopefully help a beautiful map become even better (assuming my comments are at all helpful).

The only thing that strikes me is that you left the default sky and have not made use of fog. Fog is really important in giving a seamless feeling between the edge of the map and the sky above.

If you like the default yellow and blue sky, then I would suggest making a yellow fog that starts at around 80 meters and ends at around 100 meters. You can adjust and apply to see the effects of fog on your map without having to open and close the window.

Anyway, I would suggest a different sky, one of the nice clear blue ones with a light blue fog that blends into the sky.

This will make your map run smoother and look much nicer for screenshots.

Other than that, it is a map I would surely download and play.

I hope this is helpful in some way.

Love,

Hanna

I had the map roughly made, and then just added everything and released it in approx 20 mins. The map I'm working on now will be utterly awesome. The thing is that my comp broke yesterday so I wont be able to do maps for a while.

On Disrupted Vacation I didnt add much of like.. anything and I'm pissed at myself for rushing it through. I'm not into second versions of maps since it might be compabilityissues.

As stated earlier it will be extremely good. Damn I hate broken comps, I soo wanna finish the map and show I can make awesome maps :)
