Need some ideas for a huge map I'm making
« on: January 09, 2012, 09:28:45 pm »
Hey guys. Smiling.Sin here. I'm working on a huge (15,000) map. I need some suggestions on the type of objects, meshes, and materials I use. Please note that I have already made the Height map and Terrain mask.

----------------------------DETAILS ON THE MAP-----------------------------
                                  ~Forest of Whispers~
It's gonna be a literate, long-term, realistic wolf roleplay. There aren't packs, because it's a loner/rogue rp. Though you can form small groups.
I need a lot of members for it, because of the huge map size. The map has a river and several mountain chains. I've made it as realistic as possible, using GIMP.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't really know what kind of objects, meshes, or materials to use. Any suggestions or ideas on what objects I should put in the map would be great. I'd also like to know if anyone would actually join this. Some links to meshes you find interesting would be awesome, also.

                                                                                   - Smiling.Sin

Oh, sounds interesting! Do you want any help with the map creation? I used to make maps before my computer crashed. Right now the only thing I can suggest is to NOT use the cave/den mesh that comes with map maker. Instead, it look sooooo much coolet if you build a den out of rocks. However, you're going to have to test it a lot to make sure it's not super easy to get stuck. And warn people to be careful, and possibly set their home to somewhere that has no objects. But anyways, I would love to assist with this project if at all possible.
