Is that a lvl2 GD factory?

Its to flat. Im guessing an OTA height map? The texture does look good, and deserves a better height map.

mael... you've never heard of foothills? Good lord dude that map has been around forever. It is an ota remake dude. Me rolls eyes.

Classic OTA map or not, using an OTA height map just doesnt look that good.

Das Bruce · Post by **Das Bruce** » 19 Mar 2006, 08:23

It looks fine, the texture is great, the heightmap lets it down slightly.

hmm, how expectations change. Back when I first made foothills I was getting all kinda of praise lol.

It's a remake. It has also been around is a super crappy texture for a LONG time which I have finally fixed. There is nothing wrong with ota heightmaps. Back then we used what we could which meant tiles. THe maps that played well back then play well now.

Try it before you notch it down.

As far as the texture. Look for my next greenworld map. However I have 2 more retextures to go and them I'm doing a map for reddragon, and THEN! I will make another greenworld map.

I'll say it again...

FEATURES!

Hey! I'll say it again... This is a really old map. Do I give a damn about it? No. This map is not new. The original was posted on Tue Dec 20, 2005 8:01 am.

THe only reason I'm spending time retexturing is because a friend and a few others asked me to retexture it.

Ota heightmaps are worst on water maps.

Lathan...you don't need features...it diminishes the quality of some maps IMO

*ahem* I mean I disagree. I think features always add to a map when used properly.

Looks much nicer with the new texture. Sweet.
