@TibblesEvilCat I'm not sure if I understand you correctly, but just just for the record: This map is 100% made from scratch, I just looked at the image of Steppes of War from time to time. It should have no positional imbalance whatsoever since I mirrored it the standard way with copy/paste. I just didn't want to say "Hey everyone, this is my map, inspired by SoW" cause it's not just inspired by it, it is more of an attempt to copy the map layout and make it better 
edit: One more question: How can I make the Destructible Rocks on the top Char textured?
|
This is a really nice and cool idea! I really like the textures!
|
okay cool, keep at it, i can't wait for final version to play on 
select the rocks and go to edit, i think u can change modle type the same way you do with doodads
|
I like the textures. very Middle-earthish.

I'll consider it and write you a PM. Thank you! 
Uploaded newest version to EU and newest overview picture in OP.
Once again: Can anyone tell me how to change the texture of the Destructible Rocks from jungle to volcano textures? I don't really want to open a thread for this, but I tried for 2 hours and don't have a clue lol
edit: oops, just realized that there is a thread for stuff like this. I might try it there then^^

Updated OP with new screenshots. Just changed some texture stuff and I now have two types of rocks, hooray!
Uploaded newest version to EU, NA will come soon.
Any more concerns regarding balance on this map?
|
Sorry for triplepost but I just want to say: Good news for everyone from NA who likes his Steppes of War a little bit bigger, this map is now published on NA as "High Island". hf

Nicely done. I think it's an improvement on Steppes of War for sure. I think you could add some towers in the dead space between the naturals and the golds. In the dead space but more toward the center of the map. That would be pretty cool.
|
I just want to see that this is one of the most aesthetically pleasing maps I've seen so far. Such a cool idea.
Gameplay wise, I think you already got a ton of good advice from more experienced people in the thread, so I won't add my own 2 cents.
People, take note, this is how you make a good looking map.
