I was wondering if this is even close to being good, because I've never made my own terrain before so this is my first attempts. Just say something if they're good or not and possibly with a few tips. Thanks

Good, but nothing original.
Nice job for the first attempt at serious terraining, I suppose.

First one is nice, a few blocks though.
And idk what you changed on the second one It looks as good as the original

First pic: Ramp's right edge is kinda awkward, creates slight dimension issues. The left corner of the double-high dirt protrudes too much, it looks bizarre. Otherwise very good. Blocky, but no way in hell I'd be able to do better.

Second pic: Nice. I can't even lengthwise-extend a Twilight bridge, though, so take this opinion with a grain of salt.

Check to see if it's entirely walkable. I suspect that there are small unwalkable locations on that bridge.

@DJC I think that's a regular ramp.
@Newb Very nice cliff edges. It's not that blocky, and it's probably better than anyone's ever going to get. Twilight blends are hard. And the bridge extension is pretty smooth for twilight bridges, since the edges don't match up nicely like jungle does.

The ramp doodad was placed off the iso terrain, so it doesn't "flow" into the cliff. Not a big deal, but something to keep in mind when making proper iso terrain.

This is almost my final product.

No one will have to know what's behind those... And what are some sprites to connect bill-boards to the ground? I am a sprite nub.



By biggest problem with this is that you can't see the high ground if you're on the bridge too long.

That's some pro sprite usage. :sarcasm:

I see 10+ blocks.

Pointing out what I already said doesn't help me.


Read first response.

Perhaps a better way to fix the top edge would be ramp edges or a building edge for something unwalkable.

Where have you said "I know this has blocks"?

AKA:

youmadenoedits

But yeah, there IS blocks.

ARE*

And I actually really liked the way you laid that picture out Newb. But yeah, It is quite blocky.

Ok... But the whole point was hopefully someone could tell me what sprites to put in. Not point out something a blind man could see >>

(All except for 2 blocks)

Why would you want to use sprites, this is the terrain forum. Try making it look great without sprites.
