Re: Redesign hills
How about just waves or bumps in the terrain of that area?

Re: Redesign hills
those are hills? I thought they were sheer cliffs...unpassable...

Re: Redesign hills

Re: Redesign hills
That would be much better than just generic color, I will try image!

Re: Redesign hills
I always though that they where mountains?
I think it would be best to keep them as they are, as many people have used them as "mountain" terrain in campaign maps. If the they where replaced with hills some maps may look odd.

Re: Redesign mountains
It will be difficult if we have to include everything in a 32x32 tile. We should probably make different tiles to "mount" mountains

Re: Redesign mountains
3 is good but they still require touch ups and shading

Re: Redesign mountains
Okay, I think I will touch up on number 3 and then start getting together mountain "ranges" for autotiling.
Thanks!

Re: Redesign mountains
coolguy: first make some sample images - because maybe it looks bad in mass, and dont make the final tiles until we see how it will look - thanks!
Re: Redesign mountains

Re: Redesign mountains
This doesent quite blende in with the terrain. And it looks a bit out of place in the map. Maybe change the mountain base

Re: Redesign mountains
Maybe you could add some transparent stuff near the bottom, so whatever is underneath (e.g. sand) looks like it is on the side of the mountain. This would make it blend in more. Awesome pictures, though
Re: Redesign mountains
I also ageee despite being a great image, it does not fit in at the moment. Maybe it needs to be sharper? And add some more stone/grass/or sand to the base?

Re: Redesign mountains
To me it looks similar to the bouldars. Maybe you can make the mountains a bit larger and snow capped.also they look more blurry now

Re: Redesign mountains
They are blurry because the example image had to be scaled down to fit on the forum.
New way to go at mountains: Use the current mountain, but make better ways of connecting them (mountain chains). Daniel's idea, btw.
