Map please help!
« on: February 02, 2013, 05:17:46 am »
I am responsible to make a map for this new rp. Never made one before. I have nothing with .png or anything! Where can I get some stuff to make the map look cooler? Also how do I make waterfalls or streams? Also with the terrain, its suppose to by mountains

(Also, if someone could make the map for me, I would be gratefull! You will receive fulll crdeit, the group leader is fine with someone else maing the map. :) ty.)

In the future posts like this belong in the Game Help section Emily ^_^ not in the Discussion area. (I'm sure a mod will be able to move this to the right section though).

First off you can refer to this area of the forum for a number of helpful tutorials that can guide you through map making. I'm no expert on map making myself so I really can't explain each process to you but you can find plenty info in the "Map Tutorials" section :) :

As for interesting things you can add to your maps I'm guessing you mean meshes and what not so you can check here:

To request a map from someone you can ask here:

As well as what Suragaha has stated there are some easy to follow tutorials on how to make height maps using gimp of photoshop on youtube I will put some links below for you to try out.

 GIMP - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cW06Rat6lq0

 PhotoShop - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17MknSBiG64

I hope these help you as much as they did me. Also for help related questions as Suragaha said put them in the Game and or Forum help section I will move this topic there now.
