Generic sand map [pics]

[Rickler]

I started mapping for this when my char borked. Not sure what kinds of monsters I should have. So far snakes scorpions and skellies in the labyrinth.

Ah, please unstretch the sand and rock textures! Looks good though.

Yay more maps, this rules!

It looks pretty good and the amount of world polygons isn't shockingly high either; good job.

Very nice!

Ok so, this is a free roam map; kind of like Thornlands. I'm going with a sand time magic theme. There are three main places to end up for fighting bosses. One of the places calls Keledros from back it time to battle it out in a time chamber. Which changes from day to night during the fight. The only way to the chamber is through the labyrinth which has 3 mini-boss dungeons on the way. I had another 4th mini dungeon, but hit max clips and patches, so it was removed.

Battle it out with spiders and get a reward

Amazing as always man, everyone should always expect great maps from rickler

Looks very good Rickler.
However, may I suggest that you don't show us the map overview? You're kind of giving away your maze layout

Also, do you happen to know the in-game command to change the void into a solid colour, rather than that screwy stuff what it usually looks like?

Great looking map. Very well done.

That looks really awsome. I wish I could do nature brush work like that.

No i don't, it just auto sets it green in overview mode. BTW your skybox info thread was very helpful!

For the most part, everything is scale 1. Except for the beginning area I set the rocks to 1.5 because of max patches.

You should see the dome brush work, that took me a few hours to get right, not including the custom textures.

Ah, smart move. I assumed it was stretched due to vertex manipulation.

Looks great and I especially enjoy free roam maps. Would be cool if you could add in "secrets" like in thornlands where you can find a few small areas. Possibly some hidden thing in your maze?

Wow, this looks awesome! Can't wait to explore it when it's finished.
