The name that players will see is currently "Valley of the Skeleton Tribe" but this can easily be changed.

Request Maps / Re: A Pride Seeking A Map~
« on: October 31, 2016, 06:29:33 pm »
I may be able to create such a map! :D

Name = Yellow Plains

Would you like the tall grass, and would you like it to be dense [may cause low fps] or scattered lightly [not as beautiful but works if your concerned about fps]?

Savannah, 10k+, mostly flat with a watering hole and small river.
I can do this! :D


A special Pride Rock style area.
I can do this! :D


Savannah Texture
I can do this! :D


I do not currently have any meshes or textures for prey so this will probably not be in the map initially but can be updated in if I obtain them.

I might add in a hill or two. =)

PS: If you know where I can get meshes and textures for prey, I'll see if I can get them in sooner. Also I've never done anything realistic before so this should be fun! =)

Here is a peek at my previous work, I've chosen to show an old map that is more realistic than my other ones:

Yours would look something like this but without the plateau, town, caves and a lot less trees.

Finished Maps / Re: VMEP2 Wasteland+2 PUBLIC!

I'll be working on a requested map that may or may not become part of VMEP2 after it is finished.

In the meantime, enjoy what you currently have! ^.^

Here's the first Report!

I have made a heightmap for the first map, this is how the river area looks at the south end:


and here is what is looks like with the current mask:


I'll start adding objects soon but before I do I would like to know if you think anything should change. I'll also be looking into getting the right kind of trees for your forest. =)

Request/Find Meshes / In need of two types of a Deciduous Forest tree
« on: October 31, 2016, 03:02:10 pm »
Hello! I find myself needing two types of a Deciduous Forest tree for two new maps I'm working on. I'd appreciate it if they were not "High Graphics" trees, by this I mean I just want a basic representation of it and not a lifelike remake (my reason for this is because it is going to be a very large forest and I don't want players frame rates to hit the floor). Thank you!

Site/Forum Help / how do I use the Skype field for my profile?
« on: October 30, 2016, 05:05:28 pm »
This explains that I need to do something:
!!NOTE!! Skype must be allowed to make your status available over the web in order to work properly.

But does not explain how to do that...
I would like to know how to do that so that others can easily contact me via Skype if they want to.

--Thanks in advance

Before I start, I need to know as much as I can about what you want the map to be.

First Question: Is this map to be just for your group or would you like visitors?
===1st Map===
Map Size: 50k is the biggest I've ever made and I believe this is "Quite Large" since it can take a while to cross a map of this size.
Map Height: Do you want towering mountains or just hills or flat?
Forest: Easy enough but what kind of forest? Dead or alive? Thin or thick? Large or small? Several or just one?
4 Main Den Sites: What would you like these to look like and how big should they be and how many structures representing dens should there be?
6 Small Den Sites: Same as above.
Should there be any hills, mountains or rivers?
Should there be bushes or other flora besides trees?
How about rocks?
What would you like the water to look like?
What would you like the (3-6!) different terrains to look like?
What would you like the sky, moon, sun, cloud and lighting color to be at every time of day?
Would you like any kind of weather to occur at a specific time of day?
Would you like the second map to be a portal inside the first?

===2nd Map===
Size: I'd say a size like 5k would be small (enough to see everyone at any spot on map) and 25k would be medium (still large enough to get lost if you dont know your way around).
Height: Same question as first map.
Ceremonial: I'm going to need a lot more detail on this subject! =)
I think a nice "Capitol Den" with some kind of ancient style furniture might be nice for that last request, what are your thoughts on this?


PS: A map the size of 50k can take many days to complete especially with a large amount of detail and I'm feeling artsy so if I start making it please dont rush me! =)
Also keep in mind that I do many other things than play FeralHeart or make maps.


I'll be sure to keep you updated on it's progress after every step (Heightmapping, Masking, Smoothing/Roughing of the Heightmap, Placing Objects(This is also broken down into steps depending on the shape of the land)) after I start!

A peek at my previous work.
