I've been rethinking the way I make maps and I'm trying new ways
on how I can get the texture map to look better. Here is my first
map that's I'm still working on. I'm going for a desert type map.
Here are some screenies of my new map.

UPDATE: 6-10-2006

The desert map is done... Here is a screen shot of the mini map.

Post your comments ... I still have to make features and a metal
map. On the features ... mostly some different type rocks.

I think there was a thread some time ago that compiled a bunch of features, but I don't know about desert rocks. Also, FA can help with metal map layout.

Seems a tad bland.

I think the 'lines' on the sand look a tad over done. If it was more subtle then that would be better.

i like it genblood! really!

maybe you could do some tweaking about the lines.. but in general i like the atmosfear it's 'breating'. Maybe you like to change the detal texture to some sandy looking thing, and offcourse add some palmetto's or an oase thing...

keep it up!

I think it looks pretty neat.
Better than a desert I can/would make. ;P

I nabbed it... played once or twice.

It is interesting, but imperfect. Mainly the colour scheme gets me, it makes White a poor choice as a player. The terrain is fun and refreshingly aysmmetric without being unbalanced, however.

It was very flat.. And kinda bland.

Check the metal around the edges, there is a frame with alot of metal there. dunno if its intended.

Comp1337,

Thanks for the comments, I'll fix the metal band going around the
map. Also, I replace the texture map with the orginal one I made.
