Maybe a silly question, but why are there so many chopped trees on that screenshot?
Edit: Forgot to say, looks good. Very good

Hmm....IT looks like many, but it is likely you will only see few once you walk through there ingame. I'll remove some. =)

The edges (the tiles at the edge) of a mountain/hill look very rough and unnatural.
And:
Are small hills or knolls possible, with only a height difference like a table (and no need for a ladder or similar)?

Oh wow! Absolutely amazing! Keep up the good work!

I don't know about your second question, and I am already aware of your first (which I am searching a solution for right now). And I cannot change the edges at the north side of the hills, because rounded tiles are just not possible at edges.

we cannot walk up hills but need ladders?

Bodacious!
I hope you also do gradients like grassy hills your character can walk over without ladders.

yeah, why don't you just change the code for the tiles for the ones on the edge to have the same code as a ladder tile, but look diferent, as in look the way they do now.Garett Gwenour wrote:we cannot walk up hills but need ladders?

Because then you'd either have to be ablet to crawl over every edge to get on a mountain (with lots of placing special tiles and scripting for EVERY edge of EVERY mountain), or you wouldn't notice these special tiles because they look like all the others anyway.

Well, I do not really know Sam. Anyway, we can always roleplay halflings made pretty pretty stairs up the hills.

Can you see people on the bottom bit from the top bit.
Ala hilltop forts?

They look fantastic!!
I always RP'd and envisioned that Briar had gentle rolling hills, Islands usually do have a 'higher' interior.
Keep up the good work!!!

You should be able to skid down mountain edges

At the RL- Meeting the idea to use the ability of walking onto objects to create less steep items you could walk up and down came up, but will it ever come? Who knows.

You know that Greensbriar is no natural isle?I always RP'd and envisioned that Briar had gentle rolling hills, Islands usually do have a 'higher' interior.
it got made by halfling hands. they carried thousand and thousands of sand and rocks and build that isle themself

That's perfect; you can make forts as Nalzaxx suggested and fire arrows down etc. and they wouldn't be able to target you xD

You can see the people, but from what I know (though I'm not 100% sure), you can't shoot at them.
Like you can't cast magic on something that is on a map below you either.

They just built a dam from Gobaith to Briar. The isle itself is natural. Ask Falk for the complete story around it.Samantha Meryadeles wrote:You know that Greensbriar is no natural isle?I always RP'd and envisioned that Briar had gentle rolling hills, Islands usually do have a 'higher' interior.

And even if not: Considering the thousand of earth quakes Gobaith has already suffered from; hills in Greenbriar wouldn't been much of a surprise.Adano Eles wrote:They just built a dam from Gobaith to Briar.

Misjbar: I'm in love with this map. But I already told you that. It's amazing work.

That is right. it once was possible but had to be deactivated when npc started to shoot and cast on peoples who seek shelter on rooftops. and since they were so much better at doing that than any player charYou can see the people, but from what I know (though I'm not 100% sure), you can't shoot at them.

That's not the whole truth. Greenbriar was an island, discovered by a man called Milan, The halflings build up a way from the mainland to the isle, which was a great work to be done and the condition for them to settle down there.Samantha Meryadeles wrote:You know that Greensbriar is no natural isle?I always RP'd and envisioned that Briar had gentle rolling hills, Islands usually do have a 'higher' interior.

Wow, thanks Falk.
I didn't know that, but I'll add it to our History so others will not soon forget Greenbriar's history.

Going even further off topic, Junyper Onyx, if you want to know any more about the finding and founding of Greenbriar you can always PM me, one of the founding members.

Are the pictures attached to the posts? If so, I cannot see them. I want to see what everyone is wowing.. I've been trying to for days. How come I am unable to see these ''previews"

Hmm, the pictures in this posting are normal linked pics via the [img] command. Check your forum profile - maybe you have disabled pictures.Xonogor wrote:Are the pictures attached to the posts?

O thank you Alex.
That looks sweet. I can already imagine a castle on a hill with a moat ;p or some secret shrines.. but yea.. looks good to me.
There isn't an option to turn off picture in my profile? So, that couldnt be?
