Nice job!Originally Posted by Hoel
Looks pretty good, I like that water.

This is a small area of a bigger map. I haven't put a scale too it, but I think this map is roughly 3500ft square. I plan for at least 256 more tiles, so the finished area would be about 10 x 10 miles (If I survive to see it finished - the task is looking larger and larger). I want enough room for 1000 players to live and explore, so I might have to make it larger.
I've revised the map again, to make the beaches less blurry, more sandy.
Very nice, me likee.

Yep, you have improved your map again.
And nice pictures (from Google Earth I guess?). Somehow they don't look natural to me either, with those sharp points
Check out my City Designer 3 tutorials. See my fantasy (city) maps in this thread.

I'm not complaining about the sharp points but if you study the GE screens, you'll se a sharpish edge between the water and land, it doesnt really fade into eachother that much. I thought your beaches was a nice tough thou. Try changing them to light blue and they will make excellent shallows...
Lol, I know. But all the comments on page one and two suggested softening the shorelines, hehehe. I'll work on it some more tonight. Thanks all.
I truly appreciate all the feedback on this project. I feel like I've come along way since my first attempts. Based on the last feedback from Gandwarf and Hoel, I've tried to sharpen the shore and eliminate the points. I've also changed the shallows effect. Is this better?
PS - I rep'd everyone who commented!
