Jacko's Maps - Kilns, kilns!

*cough*

New map in the OP.

[Elindor]

Cool looking man!

You make good scenes, as someone who tries to do that myself I value that.

[Branches]

Wow, Northern Archipelago has probably the best
terrain work I've seen.

And some of those cities [Reyvadin, Suno] are
ridiculous. They really look like... cities!

Awesome work! ^^

[Jacko]

Kilns, kilns!

On that map you got as your main big picture if you haven't already then remember to put invisible barriers amongst the mountain bottoms, nothing more frustrating than it taking like 10 guys to kill that last archer 'cuss he's been hiding on a mountain all round.

[Jacko]

Yup, invisible walls are up.

I'm mostly concerned about performance, because of all the trees. We'll see how it goes.

Tree amount doesn't look horrible unless that screen just shows a part with extremely few trees compared to the remaining map, I've seen worse maps regarding trees with no complaints.

Yeah the other side has about the same amount of trees as well. Totally unnecessary, but so worth it (an no, you can't get to that side)

Still don't look like enough to kill fps, maybe slightly decrease it, but far from enough to really hurt, I also agree, worth it, map looks pretty playable for cavalry as well, definitely hope this gets into the rotation (since you're the map queen I have a feeling it will).

That new map looks pretty sweet on the ss's. 

Ps. and i'm still going to be busy at irl. So not much help from meh.

Played your new map, balance wise it's great, but, yeah, those trees did cut off like 40 fps for me.
Also, you told some guy somewhere something about how he should make his cliffs, some of your mountains got hugely stretched textures as well....

[Jacko]

Hmm.. Which one?

Or rather, take a picture of it. Looks alright on my screen.

A few of the parts of the background mountains, would easily be solved by raising the terrain right before them slightly.

[Jacko]

You mean on the other side of the river? They look fine on my screen, even tho they are stretched out. The distance to them make it looks okey, they are a backdrop, after all. Anyway, thanks for the feedback, I'll poke around and see if I can make them a bit more pleasing to the eye.
