Ares de Borg's Terrain Pack II: Preview Thread

[Varlin Saliptor]

I would...Well, I don't don't know what I'd do, but I'd be happy!!

I would say that Civ 3 will soon look better than Civ 4.
[Lurking]

So what you are saying is that Civ4 now looks better than Civ3? Heretic!

So what you are saying is that Civ4 now looks better than Civ3? Heretic!

A flaw in my semantics dear Stormrage. I should have said:

'I would say that Civ 3 will soon be universally recognised to look better than Civ 4.'

My apologies to all.

You and your nasty applogies, I was so hoping for a flogging... I mean, all that time polishing my whip wasted.

Dear boy, now then, never let it be said that a subject of the British Empire is wanting in the apologies department now, eh what. So then, I apologise for my excessive apologies, and will try not to do it so much in the future. Sorry.

I hope Ares releases this masterpiece soon...its much better than any terrain pack i've ever seen..

 

[Plotinus]

I entirely agree. I shall probably include it in the update of my scenario, when I do it. This terrain pack is a real work of art.

 

[Goldflash]

I personnaly don't think scenarios/mods should have terrain packs in them. They inflate the size, and some users have prefernces as to what modpacks they use.

 

[Plotinus]

That's true. But I wanted to add some terrain of my own, which is tricky if I don't know what terrain people are using to play it with, since it might not match.

 

[Mirc]

Yes, especially if your terrain has ocean or coast graphics, which will surely interfere a lot with all the other tiles you could have!

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Nobody says you have to use the terrain, but this terrain, man, I mean, its lightyears ahead of even Snoopys.

 

[Stormrage]

I don`t think this is comparable with Snoopy`s. That one is perfect for fantasy and less serious mods This one is far more serious.

The grass land really does look too knobby. It loogs like someone planted thier yard over great big marbles. Maybe you could take what you already have and reduce the size and then tile a square with 'em. That way you'd keen your colors and the general look but it would look a bit smoother.

Another thing, is that brown stuff supposed to be plains? Look rather like vegetationless dirt to me.

That's what plains are

I agree with the grasslands bit, though. IMO, the ocean's aren't that bad at all. If you were to smooth the grasslands just a teensy bit, you'd certainly have my download.

 

[Plotinus]

Plains aren't vegetationless dirt. They are like prairies or savannahs - grassy, but not fertile enough to be ideal for cultivation. After all, where in the world do you find great tracts of vegetationless dirt?

 

[Varlin Saliptor]

cities perhaps?

 

[BadKharma]

That would be more concrete and asphalt I would think.

 

[Varlin Saliptor]

not in texas....

 

[Goldflash]

Ack! I've been quoted. For no Reason!

 

[Blue Monkey]

where in the world do you find great tracts of vegetationless dirt?

Sahara, Taklamakan, Gobi, Rub' al Khali, ... none of which would be refered to as plains, savannah, steppe, or any other type of semi-arid grassland.

 

[Plotinus]

Well, yes. That's why we have a desert terrain.
