This area started with my boyfriend giving my ideas of areas I could do when I was bored. It turned out pretty good, I think.
It's a farmland, fenced off with two roads spilling at the corner of the crops. There's a lake that streams around the farm for the plants. Across the little bridge and up the road are a home and barn.
Feel free to edit any of this area. Let me know if you find any mistakes. :)
I'm very glad you liked it so much. :D I honestly did this area to take screen shots to show my boyfriend, so things like the bridge didn't really hit me until I actually thought about it. The roads were a very quick change I did right before I put it up on the vault. I really don't know any point of the noise tool. o.o

I was just going to take a quick peek at your screen shots, but when I did they blew me away! I had to download this one and take a walk around.
Your use of texture, color, trees and placeables to create the overall effect is outstanding. I especially liked the way the cliff drops away to reveal the lake. This is one of those areas that if I was passing through in game I would stop just to look at the scenery.
I have just two suggestions, that would make this a 9 overall for me. Firstly the bridge doesn't work - you will need to modify the walkmesh with something like the placeable walkmesh helper. Secondly your path is the same average height as the surrounding terrain, and with lumpiness that looks like it came from the noise tool. I would suggest using the flatten tool with a small negative to make the path into a bit of a rut, and then use the smooth tool to blend the edges. _________________________ Charlie's Pages | Fournoi Forum | Charlie's UI | Charlie's Item Modifier | Charlie's Item Appearance Changer
