I'll probably make one eventually, but I just love nature. Looks like Ohana will hit the ladder in season 7! Congratz! I agree about those aesthetics  | ||

• Not using the height tool on an extreme level. In this case, I had to virtually remove the canyons in the water since it caused a lot of performance and graphical issues. • That I remove the pathable/landable/buildable water that flowed through the center. Granted, the map feels more open and a little more plain, but it's what they want and that's something I'm going to honor. Removing the water demanded me to re-work the aesthetics quite a bit. So far, this is the rough draft of the future Ohana. This is what you're likely to expect to see in ladder soon: + Show Spoiler + | ||

I don't understand why Blizzard feels like they need to change every map. If it works in tournaments already, why do they need to change it? | ||

I don't understand why Blizzard feels like they need to change every map. If it works in tournaments already, why do they need to change it? I loved the water flowing through the center of the map, and I'm sure everybody else did too. I think we are just used to it too much. But, for this map to work on ladder it has to be smooth from level to level. | ||

Sorry you had to take the water out, but I have to admit I would have been upset if Blizzard had put it into the ladder pool without making the change. | ||

Looks nonsensical. I'd rather use a darker normal sand texture to simulate wet sand. Green grass looks stupid on sand. The Tarsonis grass I don't mind that much, but I'm not sure yet. Maybe try to always use the Tarsonis grass on sand, and just add highlights in the Tarsonis grass with the green grass texture. You realize the ohana image in the OP is being re-done right? This is what I have so far: http://i.imgur.com/k1DNo.jpg | ||

Like in the first version of Ohana? Then you would have at least a little bit of water. | ||

Oh wait, just saw the one the team helped you with, I like this new "desolate island" look just as much as the lush island one before. I feel a light fog? Just suggestion :D edit: yeah looking at the whole map image not sure if i like the top right aesthetic bit. | ||
