    You said that the bay was formed by an earthquake that forced up the crescent shaped mountains in the middle there. This would imply that the bay was not there before the earthquake, right? As such the rivers would have been flowing south (probably southwest IMO) before said quake. In order to get the rivers to flow into the newly created bay and still be plausible, the whole middle section of the continent would have to have been raised in order to force them there OR they'd have to be flowing into the fault zone cracks OR said area would have to have been lowered while leaving the mountains in place. I'm just a river deputy so my 2 cents would be to either flatten that crescent mountain shape into hills, cut back some of the crescent mountains to form some drainage lanes, or move that section further south with some lowlands emptying into the bay. This is more of a question for the geologists, though, so I could be way off.

    The forests look nice.

    I like the additions of the lake, but the northn bay problem still exists. Also, it does look like the western river "splits" up and flows both towards the bay, and the lake, and that's not gonna happen.

    I'm confused; I'm not sure how you see that. I see a lot of rivers flowing into the lake, then a river flowing out of the lake into the bay, with a few more rivers joining this outflowing river along the way.

    I see what he is talking about. There is a river and a small lake that runs from the north of the main river, and appears to run towards the lake, and meet the river there. I need to change the way it meets the main river.

    Also, I am working on making the mountains on the south side of the bay look much smaller.
